Now, put this in the context of recent legislation to make the CONUS a designated military theater of operations so that the govt can take into custody or assassinate people living inside our borders. It will all be done in secret. They won’t even tell you they have them, and they will hold them as long as they want without trial. It will be illegal and they won’t care. Secret police type of govt is coming down on us real soon. =========================

When was this passed, and what is the name of the legislation, where can we read more about this?

The second article discusses it more in detail, it is an amendment to a bill, not a bill like I originally thought. My buddy says the amendment or section is numbered 1031 to the Defense Appropriations bill.
