This executive order is a significant assault upon our national sovereignty in this Administration's attempt toward globalization. We are now more subject to foreign power, not by treaty, by Constitutional amendment, or even statutory capitulation, but by Executive Order. This seems like an impeachable offense.

"That is, Interpol's property and assets are no longer subject to search and confiscation, and its archives are now considered inviolable."

Here's the biggest problem, as I see it - while any file that the US government maintains one (with some exceptions) may be viewed by the subject by filing a simple FOIA request. But, no such provision exists for any records or databases that INTERPOL may be keeping on you, from information that they've obtained while on US soil. That's bad. So much for the "most transparent administration, ever". This ruling does more to undermine privacy than anything in the Patriot Act.

"This seems like an impeachable offense."

Impeachable? I don't think so. It's not a high crime or misdemeanor. It's stupid, but it's not a crime.

Obama is only removing a limitation that placed by a previous president, which are both actions allowable with respect to the relevant US law, specifically International Organizations Immunities Act. Obama's just exercising his executive authority granted to him by the Constitution.

Since Obama has ceded American sovereignty to International powers then why should anyone recognize a US government at all?

Um, because Obama’s a traitor?

INTERPOL will be the zero’s SS.

One of the links from the National Review article views this move as precursor to subjecting the USA to the ICC:

“The importance of this last crucial point cannot be understated, because this immunity and protection - and elevation above the US Constitution - afforded INTERPOL is likely a precursor to the White House subjecting the United States under the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court (ICC). INTERPOL provides a significant enforcement function for the ICC, just as our FBI provides a significant function for our Department of Justice.”

” Obama’s former foreign policy advisor, Samantha Power, said in an early March (2008) interview with The Irish Times that many things need to happen before Obama could think about signing the Rome Treaty.

“Until we’ve closed Guantánamo, gotten out of Iraq responsibly, renounced torture and rendition, shown a different face for America, American membership of the ICC is going to make countries around the world think the ICC is a tool of American hegemony.”

also, we gave up control of ICANN recently.

this is more of the framework God is setting up. We ain't seen nothing yet.

Matthew 24:21-22:

21 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again.

22 If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.

[Dr. Eckleburg]

On Wednesday, however, for no apparent reason, President Obama issued an executive order removing the Reagan limitations. That is, Interpol's property and assets are no longer subject to search and confiscation, and its archives are now considered inviolable. This international police force ...will be unrestrained by the U.S. Constitution and American law while it operates in the United States and affects both Americans and American interests outside the United States.

Unbelievable.

The Kenyon's impeachable offenses continue to pile up.
