Better in their words…

If this does not put the fear of god in you I don’t know what will. Just when we think we have seen it all…now this. Biden has repeatedly been warning about the radical Trump supporters.

That’s us, “We the American People”.

Law-abiding patriots whose only crimes are that we love our country, our families, our Constitution, our presidential candidate (DJT), and God.

Biden has been telling the world that we are a threat to democracy, to the nation, to our government, to him, to Cackles. He has just put teeth into his warnings with this updated Department of Defense Directive.

This tells us everything we need to know about their plans surrounding the November 5th election. If at this point in time, you do not believe that they are doing everything within their power to drive the nation into mass chaos, and another Civil War then you just aren’t paying attention. What will it take for the rest of you who are still sound asleep to wake the hell up? Bullets flying? Our government, military, and Law Enforcement agencies killing us in the streets? God forbid this happens.

This only confirms my belief and fears that they are planning some type of False Flag event, Black Swan event, or crisis that will require them to use this directive against us. Either to prevent, delay, or contest the election and it’s results…specifically is President Trump wins. Why else would this directive be updated to this extreme and I contend unconstitutional level?

The Deep State is desperate and will do anything to stop President Trump from returning to office up to and including another Civil War. We don’t want to see this come to fruition. This would be our worst nightmare come true.

Pray! Pray for America. Pray for President Trump, his family, and all those around him.

Updated DoD Directive Targets American Citizens

Bowne Report Oct 16, 2024

Joe Biden refers to the first-hand accounts of Hurricane Helene survivors as ‘lies’. A President like Teddy Roosevelt would personally investigate the truth, but now weak Globalist sycophants attack any narrative they cannot control.

Joe Biden in all of his hubris riddled imprudence is targeting the very people FEMA claims it is saving. And so now the Federal Government is allegedly beginning to utilize its resources to label rescuers as domestic terrorists. The situation requires immediate leadership and finesse potentially morphing the devastation in the heartland into J6 on steroids.

The U.S. military has updated DoD Directive 5240.01 to allow the use of lethal force in domestic operations under specific conditions, particularly in assisting civil law enforcement during national security emergencies, potentially including civil disturbances.

The 2024 version of the directive repealed previous versions and significantly expands the military’s role in domestic operations, raising concerns about its use during potential civil unrest surrounding the election.

The updated directive allows Defense Intelligence Components to provide personnel to assist law enforcement agencies and civil authorities with lethal force in situations likely to result in death or serious bodily injury, including confrontations with civilian individuals or groups.

However, the U.S. military is generally prohibited from engaging domestically with the citizenry, except in cases and circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress, as per the Posse Comitatus Act, 18 U.S. Code § 1385. The updated directive and the potential use of lethal force in domestic operations have raised significant concerns and questions about civil liberties and the military’s role in domestic affairs, particularly in the context of the upcoming elections.

U.S. Military Now Authorized to Kill Americans on U.S. Soil?

Originally published via Armageddon Prose:

Just ahead, intriguingly, of the November elections, the U.S. military has granted itself permission to unleash “lethal force” on the civilian population in cases of “national security” emergency.

Via GreenMedInfo (emphasis added):

“As the U.S. prepares for one of the most controversial and closely watched elections in its history, a concerning update to DoD Directive 5240.01 has quietly been put into effect. Reissued on September 27, 2024, this directive governs the Department of Defense’s (DoD) intelligence activities and now includes provisions authorizing lethal force in certain circumstances when assisting civilian law enforcement. While the directive forbids assassination, it opens the door to lethal interventions under “national security” conditions….

The reissuance of DoD Directive 5240.01 repealed previous versions, including the 1982 DoD 5240.1-R. While the update might seem routine, the changes regarding the use of lethal force in domestic operations are significant.

In the 2016 version, the directive primarily focused on intelligence collection and ensuring civil liberties protections for U.S. persons. It emphasized strict oversight and the need for authorization before collecting U.S. person information.

However, the 2024 version expands the military’s role, particularly in assisting civil law enforcement, and authorizes lethal force under specific conditions, raising questions about its use during potential civil unrest surrounding the election.”

The relevant provisions from the updated directed are below, via updated DoD Directive 5240.01, Section 3.3.a.(2)(c) (emphasis added):

“Subject to Paragraph 3.1., Defense Intelligence Components may provide personnel to assist a Federal department or agency, including a Federal law enforcement agency, or a State or local law enforcement agency when lives are in danger, in response to a request for such assistance, in accordance with the following approval authorities:

a.  Secretary of Defense Approval.

(1)  The Secretary of Defense may approve any type of requested permissible assistance described in Paragraph 3.2.

(2)  The decision to approve requests for these types of permissible assistance described in Paragraph 3.2. to law enforcement agencies and other civil authorities are reserved to the Secretary of Defense:

(a)  Provision of personnel to support response efforts for civil disturbances, which may also require Presidential authorization.

(b)  DoD response to chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and high-yield explosive incidents.

(c)  Assistance in responding with assets with potential for lethality, or any situation in which it is reasonably foreseeable that providing the requested assistance may involve the use of force that is likely to result in lethal force, including death or serious bodily injury.  It also includes all support to civilian law enforcement officials in situations where a confrontation between civilian law enforcement and civilian individuals or groups is reasonably anticipated.”

The U.S. military, for the record, is expressly prohibited from engaging domestically with the citizenry with very specific, narrow exceptions, per the Posse Comitatus Act, 18 U.S. Code § 1385, via Legal Information Institute:

“Whoever, except in cases and under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress, willfully uses any part of the Army, the Navy, the Marine Corps, the Air Force, or the Space Force as a posse comitatus or otherwise to execute the laws shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than two years, or both.”
