Full EO at link. We may be getting close to this being a reality since our alphabet law enforcement departments are feckless.

It may be getting close to going all-in before we have nothing left to lose which is what an illegitimate Biden/Harris regime will bring us.

Your thoughts?

I either read or head that President Trump released the funds for the transition team, because now they have to disclose all monies foreign and domestic that they received. If not then dire consequences await, I believe Biden. 8>)

Yesterday, in Arizona we we heard that military “white hats” had the package data from server(Germany), special forces seized servers, and this EO written in 2018. I think way more is going on.

The personnel changes within the DoD are interesting. If anything is going on behind the scenes, it seems clear Trump is using the military (particularly SOF and MI) and cutting civilian intelligence and law enforcement out of the loop.

This was posted at Kevin Jackson’s site, The Blacksphere. It seems too bizarre to be true, but here it is...

Supposedly there was a firefight at the facility in Germans, with CIA on the wrong side.

I don’t know anything about naturalnews.com
It could all be BS.

Yes, after yesterday we’re getting clues his “force” consistently remains covert.

Yes, I believe that there is more going on behind the scenes that we don’t know about. I truly believe that President Trump is going to blow this open when the time is right.

I believe Lt. General McInerney is on video verifying the story, even adding additional details.

There most certainly is far more going on that we don’t know about. This is the way things work.

Wow. Add that to the list of things I never thought I would see in American government.

An executive order sounds really nice, but without institutions to enforce the order it is a worthless piece of paper.

I am locked and loaded. It is now the ammo box that needs to be turned to, figuratively, but possibly literally. Time for the Legitimate President to bring to a halt the illegitimate election. Apply the EO and stop this assault aimed at ending this Republic. We are at war, time to admit it and act accordingly.

I read on twitter the last couple of days a rumor Gina Haspel was killed in Frankfurt during the attack. Sounds off the wall

If you believe that (and I want too very much) WHY is Trump saying the DOJ and Barr are MIA? Trump is about as blunt as they come and he has never been good at sitting on a secret, which is usually teased like a Project Veritas video by him, so where is the evidence?

I listened to the interview he did with Maria on Sunday Morning Futures. Unless he has completely changed his habits and personality there is NO surprise on the horizon. I too speculated that there was something going on behind the scenes up until that interview, which was the first time we have really heard at length from Trump who had plenty of time to talk.

Again, I would love to be wrong, but he did not sound very confident nor did he use his usual terminology such as “you are not going to believe what happened” etc etc. The Trumpism’s that I wanted to hear were sadly absent.

That EO also enacted a State of Emergency that’s still active.

+ Special Forces was recently pulled from CIA moved under DOD (under POTUS/CiC) control.

+ DVS is Canadian, server was in Germany, other countries are involved.

= ?

I believe the order was related to the recent disclosure by former DOD officials that “they” were lying to the President about our involvement in Syria as far as troop involvement as well as potentially other theaters.

The CIA gets actionable intelligence and they work with spec ops teams to carry out actions. The lines get a bit blurry as to who has direct control and ability to authorize kinetic action.

You and I are both speculating, but I think that clarification had more to do with what I wrote than anything to do with the election.
