Leo Hohmann: Pentagon Issues Federal Directive Allowing Military to use ‘Lethal Force’ Against Americans as Video Resurfaces Showing Kamala Fantasizing About Weaponizing DOJ Against U.S. Citizens
The Gateway Pundit ^ | October 15, 2024 | Leo Hohmann

This article originally appeared on Leo Hohmann’s Substack and was republished with permission.

A video clip has resurfaced from May of 2019 in which Kamala Harris fantasizes about weaponizing the DOJ against speech the government doesn’t like, and the platforms that allow it.

In the meantime, one month before a tense presidential election, the U.S. Department of Defense has authorized U.S. military “defense intelligence components” to use “lethal force” against American citizens if requested by state or local law enforcement in an emergency situation. More on this in a minute, but first let’s get to the May 2019 video showing Kamala Harris unleashing her inner dictator.

Speaking at the annual NAACP ‘Fight for Freedom Fund’ dinner in Detroit, Harris threatened: “We will put the Department of Justice of the United States back in the business of justice. We will double the civil rights division, and direct Law Enforcement to counter this extremism.”

She went on to say she would “hold Social Media Platforms accountable for the hate infiltrating their platforms, because they have a responsibility to help fight against this threat to our Democracy. If you don’t police your platforms, we are going to hold you accountable…”

Watch and listen below.

Freepers, we are truly living in strange times. Are they really that out in the open about this?

The 2nd amendment to the Constitution was intended to deal with this situation.

“the U.S. Department of Defense has authorized U.S. military “defense intelligence components” to use “lethal force” against American citizens if requested by state or local law enforcement in an emergency situation. “

So a declaration of an emergency empowers soldiers to light up US citizens? Covid was an emergency. Every hurricane is an “emergency”. The border crisis is an “emergency”.

This is a broad ranging power.
In 2013, they ended the prohibition against US Government propaganda use against US citizens.

Now ten years later they want to kill us sometimes.

Yup. This is 2nd Amendment territory. And no pussy footing. It’s the Big Show.

They flooded the equivalent of 2 Divisions into the streets of DC on J6 and the next day. And from all 50 states.

Appalachia sat there freezing, starving, thirsting... cut off from the outside. And the US military sat on it’s ass for over a week before a few small efforts started.

Might have to kill them right back I guess. Might come to that, either you or them.

Fascists will not hesitate to use deadly force against citizens.

I would expect many of the rank and file military would defy orders to fire on their fellow citizens.

In the Oregon Legislature EVERY BILL is an “Emergency.”

Yea ... interesting.
She isn’t bright enough to create the “democracy” talking points.
She got it from somewhere in ‘19.
Probably Obama, Pelosi or Holder.
They have been planning this for a long time.

Most of them have families. Messages that cannot be misunderstood can be sent. Brutal? Yes. Civil wars tend to be that way.

And that’s one of the first things they want to take away.

Forgot to mention: Please think whatever you will, but let's be cautious about saying what we are really thinking.

The internet is forever.

A good rule to live by in these "interesting times" might be:

Wherever 2 or 3 are gathered together, 1 or 2 are Feds.

Maybe 20 years ago, but just about all patriotic commonsense conservatives have been purged beginning during the Obama years, but particularly since COVID.

Those left in the military are almost all totally WOKE.

Like others I used to be concerned about the arrival of the blue helmets on US soil. I believe we have a more dangerous situation with the arrival of all the "military age males," the cartel gang member, Chinese military, Hezbollah (Iran) agents, etc. (I'm sure I left out several more external threats to our sovereignty that escape me at the moment.)
