President Trump remarked that few people understood the power of declaring a National Emergency.

So...

I looked at the powers. There are many.

The following are specific powers that seem to fit in with things needed to bring justice, ala Q.

Here they are:

.........................

50 U.S.C. § 4533 (a)(7)

Procedural and substantive limitations in statute granting the President broad authority to create, maintain, protect, expand, or restore domestic industrial base capabilities that are essential for the national defense may be waived (1950)

.........................

50 U.S.C. § 4533 (a)(7)

Procedural and substantive limitations in statute granting the President broad authority to create, maintain, protect, expand, or restore domestic industrial base capabilities that are essential for the national defense may be waived (1950)

.........................

18 U.S.C. § 793

Criminal provision of the Espionage Act extends to prohibited places designated by the President where anything for the use of the Army, Navy, or Air Force is being prepared or constructed or stored (1917)

Injuring, interfering with, or obstructing the preparation for, or carrying out of, war or defense activities of the United States or associated countries, with the intent to do so or reason to believe the actions will do so, punishable with fine or imprisonment up to 30 years (1948) “when the United States is at war, or in times of national emergency as declared by the President or by the Congress”

Used to prosecute several Vietnam War protestors and anti-nuclear-weapons protestors in the 1960s.

.........................

50 U.S.C. §§ 1701-1707

Known as the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA), these statutes confer broad authority to regulate financial and other commercial transactions involving designated entities, including the power to impose sanctions on individuals and countries (1977)

.........................

18 U.S.C. § 2154

Willful manufacture of defective war material with intent to, or reason to believe it will, injure, interfere with, or obstruct the United States or associated countries’ preparation or carrying out of war or defense activities, punishable with fine or imprisonment up to 30 years (1954)
