One Step Away from a Dictatorship: “The Groundwork and Foundation Have Been Put Into Place”

SHTF Plan ^ | 5/19/2015 | Jeremiah Johnson

[HomerBohn]

“A dictatorship was impossible in our Republic because power was widely diffused. Today, as we approach Democratic Socialism, all power is being centralized at the apex of the executive branch of the federal government. This concentration of power makes a dictatorship inevitable.”

(Gary Allen, “None Dare Call it Conspiracy,” page 34)

The aforementioned quote and book were written in 1971. Good Day to you, SHTF readers. This article is going to mention some of the “finer points” utilized by the executive branch (Obama) toward the totalitarian end-state he desires. The end state of slavery he erroneously (and intentionally) labels a “fundamental transformation.” Keep these points in mind, as we mentioned in the last article that Jade Helm is (as you readers also agree) a precursor for some unknown nefarious act to take place in the near future.

The Executive Order is a presidential directive that holds the force of law once it is published in the Federal Register. Now the United States has been continuously placed in a “state of emergency” since 1933. The War and Emergency Powers Act of 1933 has enabled all successive presidents to usurp powers normally designated to the legislative branch. Abraham Lincoln suspended habeas corpus in 1862, flagrantly disregarding Article 1, Section 9 of the Constitution that states a person may not be imprisoned without due process on a whim of the government.

In 1937, the courts in the case of U.S. vs. Belmont ruled that executive agreements do not require the consensus of other branches of the government to be enacted. On March 23, 2005, George Bush Jr. entered into a treaty with Canada and Mexico in which the president of the U.S. is allowed to use troops from those countries to stop an uprising or political unrest…in the U.S. The treaty was signed without the approval of Congress and via executive order.

Readers, I have read your comments and we see the writing on the wall for what it is! What reason for all of these different laws and executive orders if not to bring to bear the whole weight of the U.S. government against the American people? It is poised and ready, just waiting for the right moment to be unleashed.

December 15, 2011 was when Congress passed the NDAA, which of course was ratified into law by Obama while he vacationed in Hawaii, signed with that “auto-pen-thing,” slipped right into everyone’s New Year’s Eve drink under our noses. Section 1021 of the NDAA affirms the authority of the President to detain an individual via the Armed Forces of the United States, and this detention without trial until the end of the hostilities. Guess we all better hope Jade Helm doesn’t go “live.”

Section 1031 refers to the U.S. as a “battlefield,” giving the military the green light to act in a “law enforcement” role in the U.S., and this is the death-knell of the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 that the Warner Defense Act of 2006 had already negated. We are already well aware of the March 16, 2012 Executive Order Obama signed for National Defense Resources Preparedness, in which every thing that can be eaten, drank, driven, grown….virtually everything in the U.S., including human labor…is now under the authority of Obama and his minions during an “emergency,” whether real, created, or imaginary.

With all that has just been mentioned, there is so much more to it than this. He must be crafted out of Teflon…nothing sticks to him. Nothing. Not Benghazi (or the entire “Arab Spring,” for that matter), not Fast and Furious, not the bin Laden thing where an entire SEAL Team paid the price to keep a lid on the truth (in a Chinook, no less of an ignominy…when have you ever heard of a SEAL team extracted or transported by a Chinook?), and so on ad infinitum. Nothing sticks to this guy. Nothing.

Make no mistake about it; the groundwork and foundation have been put into place. The NDAA is there, all primed and ready to be used against us, the American citizens. The EO’s are all in place to confiscate our resources and to force us into internment camps to perform forced labor for KBR (Kellogg, Brown, and Root) under the supervision of the Internment Specialist MOS of the U.S. Army. The police departments, local and state, have effectively been federalized by the dangling of the carrot (federal funds) in front of the jackasses (the state governors and their respective state legislatures).

Now all that the regime needs is a good false flag, or the conversion of an existing problem into something cataclysmic. A war, or an economic collapse would be good triggers. Make no mistake, guys and gals, we are right on the edge. All it will take is a small shove and we’ll pass over the tipping point. The point is that the propaganda and the conditioning of the public consciousness to accept martial law are well under way. The “for your own safety” and “in the interests of the nation/national security/public good,” etc., slogans are going to be the keys to their pulling the trigger on a martial law scenario.

Every day the envelope is pushed just a little further. It is also quite obvious there are much larger forces that pull the strings of Obama: the globalists so desirous of their world government. The UN and other foreign forces, backed by the thieves of the IMF and the World Bank are slavering with anticipation of the United States giving away its own sovereignty and becoming another “district” in their version of “the Hunger Games.” I submit to you that the actions this regime has taken toward the American people is nefarious and evil because it cannot answer the question “why” for any of its actions with any legitimacy. There is no reason that has been given that justifies any of the things done by either the administration or its bureaucratic fiefdoms.

Why would DHS need billions of hollow point rounds for paper targets? Why would MRAP’s and other armored personnel carriers be sent to towns akin to Gomer Pyle’s Mayberry? Why are all of these military maneuvers being carried out on American soil in populated areas? Why is all of the hardware…tanks, artillery, etc., being shipped all over the U.S.?

The answer to all of them, good Readers, is that we are now in a “soft” tyranny. It will morph into something much harder, and the only unanswered question is “when” that tyranny will fully flower. Let’s open up the dialogue. The comments have been great: in-depth and thought provoking. I ask you to present your prognosis and your ideas about where we are and where we’re going, both short and long term. Also, I’m trying to answer as many of you back as possible, so please don’t be offended if I haven’t answered yours right away. I’m reading each and every one of them; they’re that important to me, and I hope they are important to you (one another) as a group.

Stay alert and frosty, and keep up the good work. Have a great day!

We have are well past the point of no return

Dovetails nicely with the desire of the internationalists to remove American from the world stage as the defender of capitalism and democracy. These are somewhat separate but synergistic efforts, but some of the same traitors are involved with both movements. The left is merely useful idiots. The Muslims are useful idiots too.

I agree with your opinion on education being at the root of the rot. The other root is the degradation of culture via the media. Lots of people including freepers think that there is material worth paying for in the media. We'll pay for it all right.

it Was Jefferson Davis

[StoneWall Brigade]

His Farewell speech to the Senate was truly one of the best speechs I have ever read.

[Captain Peter Blood]

I think a good case can be made that when the Amendment to the U. S. Constitution was passed that allowed for Direct Election of U.S. Senators we started moving down the road away from the Republic form of Government.

Both Political Parties favor Big Government and that has been the case all along, much more so the last 80 years.

The Biggest single the the Federal Government has going for it is to keep us in a Perpetual State of Fear, whether that is Communism, Global Warming or Terrorism. It’s the excuse that is used for more Government, More Police State Powers and a Further dilution of of our Rights under the Constitution.

I’m gonna tell you one thing, kid...Edward Snowden

” all power is being centralized at the apex of the executive branch “!
This is correct and if you think we are bitching about this marxist quota boy, just wait to see the libs scream to high heaven if a REAL conservative like Ted Cruz gets elected and pushes the pendulem back as hard right as this puke pushed left.

[Georgia Girl 2]

IMO we went past the ballot box in Nov 2012. There is only one way to restore the constitutional republic and its coming soon.

[Reeses]

The only viable solution should be obvious to everyone by now.

A government has gotten out of hand when it starts routinely shooting its own citizens. African-Americans are on the front lines of that, and they are the citizens reacting with violence. Few approve of the riots or the rioters but they have a point, and they're not just talking anymore.

The DHS recently prepared a report on "domestic extremists" but completely misidentified the citizens that have nothing left to lose.

One Step Away from a Dictatorship: “The Groundwork and Foundation Have Been Put Into Place”

"...salient points made by the author, to wit:

* The passage of NDAA of 2011;
* The signing of EO 13603 (which he alludes to but doesn't name); and one he doesn't mention:
* the disgraceful decision by SCOTUS in June 2012, blessing ObamaCare and all its hidden fees and tax penalties, making anyone a criminal subject to arrest (under NDAA's provisions).;

Those three travesties of law have, in the space of six months, set the final pieces in place. As I said then, "We are officially over the precipice, we just haven't struck the ground yet..."

Thanks, Old Sarge.

For later look.

[Monorprise]

There are two problems here
1: a government that is drifting more and more towards open oligarchy and dictatorship. Its not so hard to see the pattern now of where things are going.

2: We got a social problem that we also beleive is a result of the goverment’s edicts,and leftist lies in the media and State schools.

Problem #1 may eventualy require some clever plan to restore the republic but that is largly for not if we dont solve problem #2. After all a democracy will just vote itself into tyranny again if the population is taught to distoy themselves and others via the politics of racial, ethic, and economic warfare.

Ultimately we have only a minority of the current population still virtuous enough to trust as citizens. We can thou campaigns and reasoning convince a working majority of the rest to join us. But ultimately a great many are already sold themselves into a life of slavery to eveny based class warfare. The left are vigorously attempting thou collage and school education to convince the rest to join them.

Everyone that does join this warpath will never be at peace so long as they follow it. You cannot after all live in peace so long as you make war upon your neighbor no matter what your reason is, and there will always be some new reason or perception they dream up to keep their army marching under them.

Great points deserving of contemplation....and action!

[wku man]

Don't let the door hit you on the way out, chickensh*t. Don't come back when the smoke clears, either.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

[C. Edmund Wright]

WTF are you babbling about?

[wku man]

This, coward:

"Or, another way: Ex pats are the NEW patriots!"

If you're so "patriotic" that you think the best way to serve your country is by turning your yellow-steaked back on it, then by all means...go. The sooner the better.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

[C. Edmund Wright]

First of all, I do think a lot of ex Pats are the new patriots, and I do think a lot of them are still fighting for this country. You may not have heard of cell phones and the internet, but they do make for effective international communications.

Second, I never said I was considering going that route - though I am considering it. Who knows if it will happen. I will say I’ve been on the front lines in this battle (probably a helluva lot more than you ever have been) - but who knows, you’re just another quirky cowardly screen name. And, I will continue the fight from abroad if I do ex patriate.

And third, you and your redneck bumpkin thought that America is a piece of real estate, and not a set of ideals, is very cute and pollyannish. The ideals of America are just about dead on the real estate by that same name....but I doubt you’re smart enough to understand that.

Cavalry ho? WTF are you babbling about Custer. You headed to Little Big Horn?

[C. Edmund Wright]

you don’t get to make that decision mr fake macho....you don’t have a damned thing to do with that door, other than over compensation type bluster and blather.

Feeling a little light in the loafer there, and the need to go overboard macho?
