Its Not a Conspiracy Theory It Is Happening Right Now (Video)

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


(Pictured: Boston 2013)

The Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 was originally established to protect American citizens from the federal use of military troops to enforce and execute the laws of the land unless expressly authorized by the Constitution or  Congress. Since then, for over a century, this task has fallen upon local and federal law enforcement. But with the War on Terror taking center stage in the United States for the last decade, elements within the government have been working tirelessly to expand the mission of the US military on the domestic front.

First, they passed the Patriot Act, which gave the government sweeping new powers to categorize any individual as a terrorist, whether they are operating on foreign lands or here at home. In 2011, as America brought in the New Year, they signed into law the National Defense Authorization Act, which made it possible for American citizens who were categorized as domestic terrorists under the Patriot Act to be detained and imprisoned indefinitely without charge or trial.

Finally, last week we learned that, as President Obama came under fire for the many scandals rocking his administration, the government was quietly moving to give the Department of Defense unprecedented authority on U.S. soil, effectively nullifying Posse Comitatus.

Eric Blair of Activist Post writes:

First, the senate is debating an expansion of the already broad powers of the 2001 Authorization to Use Military Force (AUMF) so the U.S. can essentially engage any area in the world in the war on terror, including America. Which brings us to the second development: the Pentagon has recently granted itself police powers on American soil.

Assistant Secretary of Defense Michael Sheehan told Congress yesterday that the AUMF authorized the US military to operate on a worldwide battlefield from Boston to Pakistan.  Sheehan emphasized that the Administration is authorized to put boots on the ground wherever the enemy chooses to base themselves, essentially ignoring the declaration of war clause in the US Constitution.

While Americans were distracted with three developing scandals pushed by both wings of the mainstream media, sinister developments were taking place behind closed doors. In essence, the US military has granted itself the power to deploy troops on the streets of America without approval from the President or Congress, and the AUMF, which was originally designed to target the terrorists responsible for 9/11, has been expanded to give the government authority to use military assets on the domestic front without a declaration from Congress.

Charlie McGrath of Wide Awake News explains:

Thanks to the hard work of Eric Blair at Activist Post we understand that Washington D.C. has been very busy eroding your freedom.

In fact, Senator Angus King went so far as to say that the hearing he was involved in was the most astonishing and disturbing hearing he has ever seen.

Even John McCain, war hawk John McCain, came out and said the government has gone way beyond its authority.

What are they talking about? The AUMF – Authorization to Use Military Force.

This piece of legislation that was put into place way back when we started the war on terror that is now turning from foreign enemies to YOU. Don’t be shocked by that, because you are on the list if you are a freedom minded, free thinker that believes in a Constitutional Republic.

They are changing the wording of this thing so that the military can be used on the streets of this country.

It’s not a conspiracy theory. It’s not some kind of a fancy fantasy that may come true down the road.

It is happening right now, in the guise of other news events that are not news events.

Even more terrifying is the fact that West Point has come out recently and said that you – if you have a theory that the federal government is trying to take over and implement a national police force – you could fall into the category of a domestic terrorist.

A domestic terrorist that can be dealt with by military force…

The only conspiracy here is what the government is telling us.

This legislation is real. The militarization of America is in full force. We are the targets.

      We need the patriot act in the UK, as the Conservatives, Lib Dems and Labour are ALL traitors to this country by giving our sovereignty to the EU! The only patriotic party is the UKIP!

      • txpatriot

        You do not understand. The patriot act is not a good thing. It is designed to take our God given rights away, in the disguise of ” FOR YOUR SAFETY”.

      • wishbone

        I wouldn’t go getting your hope up about UKIP, look carefully, they are the stormtroopers, they are worse than what you got in at the moment. you’ve got to understand, it does not matter who you vote for anymore, they are ALL in the same club, they just keep playing the game of political difference to keep the “SHEEPLE” voting. the trick is, don’t vote, don’t give them a mandate, take their power away from them.

        • Anonymous

          The ONLY conceivable use for that interlocking batch of treason in the PATRIOT Act, the NDAA etc., is if the military (and how in HELL does a military with no Constitutional political power GRANT ITSELF “legal powers” to operate on U.S. soil??) chooses to operate in Washington D.C. and arrest all of the traitors in the Administrative Branch and in Congress. Most of the complicit appointees in the so-called regulatory agencies (“UN-regulatory” would be more accurate) are also corporate shills who should NEVER have been given government posts, and THEY should be unceremoniously ousted as well. THEN perhaps we might begin to repair what the corporations and the others have done to this country.

          It’s really hard for me to understand how so many people can possibly look at what has happened to and within the economy, the infrastructure, to costs in general, the boom-and-bust nature of so many “bubbles” and then at all the chemtrails and all the rest, and think it’s just all “by accident”. I keep hearing, “Well, sometimes things go wrong, and all you can do is try and prepare for them and try to fix them when they DO happen. It’s nobody’s fault. Things just happen!”

          No, “things” DON’T “just happen” – they are planned out and executed, along with anyone who figures it out and gets in the way, and they are MADE TO HAPPEN! It’s so easy to see who profits from all of this,and how they’re grabbing off absolutely everything they can steal, but too many of my fellow citizens REFUSE to look at what’s happening! They WILL see it, though – about the time a bunch of propagandized, conditioned, massively mind-controlled soldiers are at the door to haul them off to the”Re-education camps” as Obama calls them for being terrorists – subheading: people who disagree with the fascist takeover of the government.

          It’s so hard to believe – no, really, it’s EASY to believe; it’s just ANGERING that my fellow Americans sat and REFUSED TO BELIEVE IT, and they will continue to do so until it’s far and away too damned late.

          And Wishbone: Our refusing to vote wouldn’t take their power away. It would only highlight how lawless they really are – unless they chose to LIE and make up some votes. Who of We the People would have any way to check on those votes?

      1984

    • wishbone

      THE UNITED STATES CIVIL WAR 2, and “antieu” you are correct, the UK is going to have the same problem, only the English don’t have a right to bare arms. my grandfather was a winner of a VC (Victoria cross) in WW1 defending british freedom, my father was a marine commando in WW2 wounded twice and saw his mates blown to bits also fighting for british freedom, both of them were treated like crap after those wars. and now the ultimate insult, the british government turns NAZI and ripping up all british freedom. i’m an ex-pat, I left when that filthbag “thatcher” came to power and started this race to facism.

    • wvbowhunter

      Trust me friend, the UK does not need the patriot act. It has taken some of our rights away for temporary security. Ben Franklin said once that if we trade liberties for temporary security, we have nor do e deserve either. I would rather have an unstable freedom as a secure tyranny.

      Do you know why the U.S. is becoming a police state or already is one? WHY?

      The arrival of Planet X in the inner solar system in 2003 is why!

      Case closed!

      • wishbone

        planet X,? is that the planet you live on,???

      • Izabell adoorknocker

        The clown possibly lives on planet X :grin:

      I first read 1984 in high school way back in the ’70s because it was required reading.

      Is it required reading in the U.S. now? I DOUBT IT! The last thing the power and wealthy elites want young people to know is 1984 provided a peak of our present and it is much, much worse!

    • BADGER BADGERISM

      REVOLUTION NOW!

      TAKE the THUGS DOWN!

    • Awaken

      We are lead astray one step at a time… reminds me of the boiling frog experiment where he’ll cook if you turn the heat up slowly

      • wizard

        You have been roasted but you will not get out of the oven.

    • V for Vendetta

      Any person Cop or military who stands on the side of a treasonous anti christ Hitler worshiping government is a traitor as well. You are the enemy of the U.S and you will be dealt with as the enemy PERIOD. mln

    • Anti-Zion

      “We need the patriot act in the UK, as the Conservatives, Lib Dems and Labour are ALL traitors to this country by giving our sovereignty to the EU! The only patriotic party is the UKIP!”

      100% correct but it will take more than just voting to remove the criminals from out mist.

      Think bigger, think international banks because they can defeat any government without firing a shoot if no one dares to meet financial blackmail with nothing more than words.

    • PvtVice

      I think you forgot one…..or two Executive Orders. Look up EO 12425 and EO 13528. It is already in place. Keep your powder dry.

    • ajackattack

      Just because all of these BS things passed doesn’t make them enforceable or Constitutional! There is nothing in the Constitution that gives these rights so the States maintain the authority over these things NOT the Federal Govt

    • KingofthePaupers

      Jct: Turning “the land of the free” into Gulag Amerika right in front of our eyes. Government can now make you disappear and it’s illegal for anyone to ask where you were disappeared to. Scary. But fix money and it’s over. Argentine Solution, good-paying useful jobs for everyone, who’ll take work killing people?

    • Izabell adoorknocker

      And the sheeple shall comply.
      All together now.
      Bend forward, and grab your ankles.
      Your Government wish’s to give you something.
      As well as take your guns, and freedom. :mrgreen:

      All you idiots deserve to have your guns taken away.
      You are cowards of the worst type.
      Armed cowards
