Notice Continuing the National Emergency With Respect To Foreign Interference In or Undermining Public Confidence In U.S. Elections

 FOREIGN POLICY

 Issued on: September 10, 2019

ALL NEWS

On September 12, 2018, by Executive Order 13848, I declared a national emergency pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) to deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States constituted by the threat of foreign interference in or undermining public confidence in United States elections.

Although there has been no evidence of a foreign power altering the outcomes or vote tabulation in any United States election, foreign powers have historically sought to exploit America’s free and open political system.  In recent years, the proliferation of digital devices and internet-based communications has created significant vulnerabilities and magnified the scope and intensity of the threat of foreign interference.  The ability of persons located, in whole or in substantial part, outside the United States to interfere in or undermine public confidence in United States elections, including through the unauthorized accessing of election and campaign infrastructure or the covert distribution of propaganda and disinformation, continues to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States.  For this reason, the national emergency declared on September 12, 2018, must continue in effect beyond September 12, 2019.  Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13848 with respect to the threat of foreign interference in or undermining public confidence in United States elections.

This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress.

Hear Hear!

Or is it Here Here!

And WTF does that phrase mean anyway? :)

This will turn the game on the weaselrats

[NurdlyPeon]

Hopefully this is a vehicle that he will use to start cracking down on vote fraud. Can’t wait to hear the RATs start screaming.

[Melian]

WoooooHoooooo! Let’s protect the 2020 vote!

Hear, hear is an expression used as a short, repeated form of hear him. It represents a listener's agreement with the point being made by a speaker

It was originally an imperative for directing attention to speakers, and has since been used, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, as "the regular form of cheering in the House of Commons", with many purposes, depending on the intonation of its user. Its use in Parliament is linked to the fact that applause is normally (though not always) forbidden in the chambers of the House of Commons and House of Lords.

The phrase hear him, hear him! was used in Parliament from late in the 17th century, and was reduced to hear! or hear, hear! by the late 18th century. The verb hear had earlier been used in the King James Bible as a command for others to listen.

That’s one of the reasons I love this board :)

Thanks

Hear yea, hear yea!

Perhaps the Democrats fundraising in Mexico will have reason for concern over this.

[blueplum]

speaking of foreign and domestic interests in undermining elections.....when will we learn who, which individual at who’s bidding, started the whole ‘recession, recession, recession’ crap that went around the MSM block late last month?

[tsomer]

Maybe more than that. Maybe Soros?
Maybe a crowbar to find out where those anonymous, online contributions come from? Maybe a way to bust up media and big tech?

When was the last time anybody in Washington asserted our sovereignty?

And to think he’s doing it because the dems were so concerned!

[elbook]

Have any illegal alien or other non-citizen found voting in a federal election be subject to a penalty of 5 years in a federal penitentiary and those found in conspiracy to do so 10 years in a federal penitentiary.

[Louis Foxwell]

As in HEAR YE! HEAR YE! The call of broadsheet sellers and of Royal proclamations in the market place.

[P-Marlowe]

Does this mean that he will crack down on illegal aliens voting?

Ha ha ha
