Trump broadside against the various "Foundations" that fund anti-american activities?

The Clinton Foundation?

George Soro's various foundations?

Do they get due process if they are not a citizen?

Is there an anecdote to help explain this laymen like?

My head spins when I try to translate legalese.

Sec. 7. For those persons whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order who might have a constitutional presence in the United States, I find that because of the ability to transfer funds or other assets instantaneously, prior notice to such persons of measures to be taken pursuant to this order would render those measures ineffectual. I therefore determine that for these measures to be effective in addressing the national emergency declared in this order, there need be no prior notice of a listing or determination made pursuant to this order.

Doesn’t look to be limited to non-citizens.

Now I’m torn.

Take down the Clinton Foundation or give them due process?

My apologies. I searched for Executive Order in the title and nothing came up.

Basically the same poisonous “logic” behind civil forfeiture laws.

These powers existed under Obama. If you want to get rid of them, then just have Trump exercise them vigorously.

Watch out. The powers granted in these statutes could easily be politicized. Our concept of human rights is not the same as Obama’s. The next President could do a 180, labeling Republicans as human rights abusers if they criticize Islam or LGBT.
