Executive Order 13848 is In Play. By Douglas Wilson.
In 2018, Trump signed an executive order that placed the United States in a state of emergency with regard to foreign interference in our elections.
This was signed without a great deal of fanfare at the time, but it would have been hard for the Democrats to make anything of it because they were in the middle of claiming that some Russians had destroyed our democracy through buying a handful of Facebook ads. They were on a crazed foreign interference jag, and so they weren’t really in a position to say that such an executive order wasn’t all that necessary.
That executive order is active now and, if acted upon in a particular way, it could result in a monumental crisis.
The executive order stipulates that 45 days after the election (which would be Dec. 18), a number of high-level officials (e.g. Attorney-General, Secretary of Defense, Secretary of State, et al.) will deliver a report to the president that informs him whether or not there was foreign interference in our election. This is perhaps a cliff-hanger, because the Electoral College is scheduled to meet on Dec. 14 — though I don’t believe that date is set in stone.
If interference is discovered to have been [happening], then the president can take decisive action, including the seizure of any assets of any players in said interference. An obvious target of this would be a company like Dominion, but it could ratchet up to entities as big as Twitter.
Of course, the problem is that not acting on confirmed interference could result in a monumental crisis also, see the previous section [on election fraud]. Such is life. …
There are some indications that his executive order was a trap that he set and baited for those in the grip of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
In the speech that Trump gave the other day about the election, there were some phrases that sounded, you know, kind of lawyery, and it did seem like he was setting the stage for legal action on the basis of that executive order. About thirty minutes into the speech, he said, “The only conceivable reason why you would block commonsense measures to verify legal eligibility for voting is you are trying to encourage, enable, solicit or carry out fraud.” The only thing missing there is the whereas, and the to wit, and the parties of the first part.
Now if he does take action on the basis of the executive order, and does so in a way that simply kicks the issues involved into the courts, then I have no real problem. That really would be benign. That would not be arbitrary government.
But if he just up and seizes Google’s assets, however much that makes us want to clap our tiny hands with joy as far as Google’s comeuppance is concerned, the simple fact is that this would be arbitrary government. Maybe some of the editors that Lincoln arrested were actually bad men. Maybe, but that doesn’t matter. That’s not how you do it.
Why such a defeatist attitude? You know we’ve had contested elections in the past.
Based on what specifically pertaining to this executive order?
Not Joe the creep, but kamala the witch
80 million armed Trump voters could end this right now.
Save or destroy the nation you say?
Ok, so we have a choice.
Trump can listen to the enemy and the media and “be the bigger man and let Biden take the WH”. Well, we all know that means that we’ve allowed fraud to rule the day and we’ll never ever see a free and fair election ever again. We’ll progress forward with liberal progressivism at a hurried pace and conservatives will be conveniently disappeared.
Or...
We fight, we refuse to allow the country to be take over by the Deep State and communists. The Antifa/BLM crowd, perhaps even foreign armies may try to intervene... but we will handily destroy them, or they will perhaps kill us all? I doubt the latter, but I suppose it possible? If we win, we jail/execute the villains in fairly barbaric means and the media of today would SURELY disapprove...but well, we’ll probably be hanging them...
So, which of the two you want?
Oh... I get it...perhaps you and others think there is a third way? Work will make you free?
EO2018
I have said since November 6 that if the fraud stands this nation is finished. I am just not sure it isn’t anyway.
I am hoping, without hope. Resisting without confidence, because it is the right, good, moral and noble thing to do. I will rejoice if I am wrong, but I think these are the days when evil appears to triumph. Evil is upon us. I am not happy about that.
Before we get dejected, we first must see this play out.
But come on, do you really think that you me and 70 million others are just going to relax and kick back and let the Chicoms, Soros take over this country? Inconceivable to me... I can see states seceding in a matter of minutes the moment the first one does...just like that Texas filing with Scotus. It started with one, then all a sudden...
We will make our stand if need be. We are not going to let this country fall to Tyranny.
Trump is busy using as leverage in negotiating his exit deal with the swamp. He needs his get out of jail free card.
Using this or the insurrection act is nil.
Bump
Well the UN has a plan under the new world order to split the US into 5 regional bodies. Canada will fare poorly when split into 5 more regional bodies.
The new world order is a sick mixture of business leaders/families/banks that decided to do away with nations and flood the advanced nations with people from the lower half of the earth into the north.
You have to kill the communist party members in the US Govt and the politically active communists (BLM and Antifa) to end the NWO push.
The cheaters already destroyed the nation.
“The cheaters already destroyed the nation.”
That is my concern.
This is nonsense for the gullible.
The thought of him seizing all that Dominion equipment ...
Sounds like a small start. The 800 pound gorilla is all of the millions of politically active communist teachers and professors, from pre-K through the university systems.
...and you to be so ruthless, so merciless, that the enemy that is left will either commit suicide or beg to convert. Otherwise you are just wasting you time. If Trump kicks this off he will need to arrest and try thousands before tribunals. This includes persons who passively or actively condoned acts they knew were illegal or gave aid, comfort, and assistance, I.e., politicians, media at many levels, civil servants, celebrities, the list goes on and on. Then there’s the foreign actors.
Ping!
Maybe some of the editors that Lincoln arrested were actually bad men. Maybe, but that doesn’t matter. That’s not how you do it.
