The Trump administration is preparing to designate transgender people as “violent extremists” in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder, two national security officials tell me.
“We're looking at the entire spider web for any of these attacks,” FBI director Kash Patel
Under the plan being discussed, the FBI would treat transgender suspects as a subset of the Bureau’s new threat category, “Nihilistic Violent Extremists” (NVEs).
White House counterterrorism czar Sebastian Gorka, who prior to Kirk’s murder, despite his prodigious output on X, had never tweeted the word “trans” during the second Trump term. The day after Kirk’s assassination, though, Gorka posted three separate Tweets on X about “trans shooters.”
Back to Erin's article:
On Thursday evening, independent journalist Ken Klippenstein reported that the FBI is developing tools to identify transgender suspects and classify them as “nihilistic violent extremists.” Within hours, the Oversight Project at the Heritage Foundation—the same outfit driving Project 2025’s blueprint now being implemented inside the federal government—released a four-page memo urging the bureau to go even further. Its proposal: formally designate all transgender activism as “Trans Ideology-Inspired Violent Extremism,” a new category of domestic terror threat. It’s important to note that the Heritage Foundation is not itself the federal government, and to our knowledge, its proposals are not yet in place. But the group’s influence is vast, especially in the wake of a Trump administration openly committed to implementing Project 2025. That makes its latest push far more than just a think-tank memo—it’s a roadmap for policy. Here’s what you need to know about the proposal.
The memo’s first section lays out its definition of “Transgender Ideology-Inspired Violence and Extremism,” a term it urges the FBI to adopt as official doctrine. Under its test, anyone who believes violence is justified against opponents of “transgender ideology” would qualify. But the definition doesn’t stop there. It also includes anyone who argues that stripping away transgender rights constitutes violence or an existential threat to transgender people. That second prong is sweeping: by its logic, nearly every transgender rights activist or organization—merely for pointing out the tangible harm that comes from losing rights—would fall under the label of extremist.
Uhhhhh dont get arrested? Were fucked arent we?
