Robert Reich publishes writings by Richard Gephardt, who represented Missouri in the United States House from 1977 to 2005, who lays out the case that Trump is preparing for a coup:
"No statute authorizes the federal government to treat protected political speech as terrorism; NPSM-7 does it anyway. It tasked the FBI, the IRS and the Treasury Department with tracking the funding sources and supporters of organizations suspected of directly or indirectly facilitating political unrest, with no reference to the First Amendment."
