Meanwhile, let's change gears. President Trump is issuing a new national counterterrorism strategy focusing in part on left-wing violent secular groups. It comes at a time when political violence in America is becoming an increasing threat, especially after the latest assassination temp on President Trump in Washington DC.
To talk more about this and the change, national counterterrorism strategy expert Morgan Wright. He's the CEO and founder of the National Center for Open and Unsolved Cases.
Cases. Morgan, what changes now?
>> Uh, Brian, what changes is the authorities. Um, you know, as a detective, before, you know, working at state and local level, we were limited by things that we could do because we did we couldn't access federal law or some of those authorities. That's now been unleashed from a counterterrorism standpoint.
So, you think about the ability for Treasury to go after people the same way they go after members of Hamas or Hezbollah or cartels.
Now you think about the counterterrorism authorities, the investigation ability for FISA, those uh you know the the the warrants that you can get as long as there's a nexus to somewhere out there.
We can't go after people for what they think, but you can now you can start going after people for what they do and apply the entire range of authorities and toolkit that normally was only reserved at the federal level or the intelligence level.
>> So here's uh here's some of the groups and some of the movements that have uh caused a stir. opposition to capitalism, imperialism or colonialism. We hear those chants all the time. They're ridiculous. Uh support for LGBTQ rights, uh support for environmental causes or animal rights, adherence to pro-communist, pro- socialist beliefs or anti-fascist rhetoric, which we hear non-stop, and opposition to government authority.
authority. Now, the thing is, you can believe that you can get together.
They're worried about when it leads to violence. And then Treasury could play a big role, right?
>> Yeah, absolutely. As we saw with Operation Economic Fury, you know, the counterpart to EP Epic Fury, you can now apply the entire toolkit that Treasury, I'm telling you, as a detective, we were we salivated over the ability that the federal government had with IRS and Treasury to go after money, to go after sanctions.
This is something now that can now be done that will impact us at the state and local level. This is a huge change. And if you It's follow the money, right? Follow the money. You don't go after people for ideology. We got to be careful from a first amendment standpoint.
standpoint. But when that ideology leads to violence, now they become a target. Now you apply the whole toolkit. And when you disrupt their money, I'm telling you, Brian, most of these groups are not flush with cash.
You start disrupting that, you start disrupting their recruiting uh capability, um you can have a huge impact in a very short amount of time.
>> Don't you believe that a lot of this money comes from our adversaries, Russia, North Korea, China, writing the checks to fment the unrest? They know exactly the type of issues that stir in
America.
>> Yeah, this this is uh the tactics haven't changed, only the tools. The Russians were doing this with some of their student, you know, associations for peace, you know, during the Cold War. So, this this is nothing new, Brian. But you're right, China, all of our adversaries have a vested interest in ensuring that we are we have instability and violence and protests here because if we start taking our eye off the ball here for China, guess what?
we're not watching Taiwan as closely.
So, they get something out of this. So,
and then you have to look at the role of some of these other NOS's or who's funding these things and start following that money back.
Some of these things just don't come from nation states. They come from organizations within our own borders.
>> I hear you, uh, Morgan. Thanks so much, Morgan. Wright, appreciate it. Things are going to change and hopefully we'll get some crackdowns. Be sure to like and subscribe for all the Fox News latest on YouTube and catch full shows streaming now on Fox
