OK, fair enough, it didn’t sound like it to me. However, rationality isn’t necessarily the way decisions are made in DC. This becomes an even bigger problem when judicial review is removed from the picture. It won’t be senators making the calls, that will be cabinets heads and supervisors (like those who gave us F&F). In short while today the nebulous wording might not be a problem thats won;t necessarily be the case in the future. Why are we giving more power to DC esp to name their bad guys de jour and circumvent due process?
Perhaps related, and to my mind more important, why was this provision “drafted in secret”? Section 1031 doesn’t look as though it relies on classified information, unless that’s how they came up with the “associated entities” and decided not to name more than AQ and Taliban.
Homeland inSecurity has DEFINED domestic terrorists against the US and all the Rino’s and DNC’s political enemies. They even named Iraqi vets as terrorists. Have we not noticed Obama’s regime sexually molesting Americans, of all ages, at the airports claiming they might be carrying bombs. Did we not hear Maxine Waters at a recent hearing shouting that Christians are more dangerous than jihadists to the country? Do we not see the Muslims being made the victim pets of our government - including the DOD while the homeland security machinery redirects itself to target American-Americans instead?
Have we not seen enough to know what our DOD will be directed to do with this power to lock up domestic terrorists without a trial?
This government is not our parent’s government. It is not worthy of extra-constitutional power or trust to any degree. It must be devolved and muted. Surely Mr. Traitor McLame is not worthy of trust.
