Trump signs memorandum targeting 'left-wing terrorism' [View all]

President Donald Trump signed a memorandum marshalling federal law enforcement to investigate “domestic terrorism and organized political violence,” which he has blamed on the left as he ramps up efforts to target political opposition.

“This is the first time in American history that there is an all of government effort to dismantle left-wing terrorism," White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller said during a Sept. 25 event at the White House.

FBI Director Kash Patel said law enforcement would focus on who is funding such groups, saying he plans to "follow the money."

"We are properly going to chase them down like the domestic terrorists that they are," Patel said.
