New Obama czar will hunt 'right-wing' extremists ~ By Leo Hohmann

Americans seen as possibly more threatening than Islamic jihadists

While this information will upset many of us, regarding the targeting of "right-wing extremists" in a new wing of the Justice Department, when I read the entire column, I discovered an even deeper threat!

Whitehead, author of “Battlefield America: The War on the American People,” said he believes the new czar over homegrown violent extremism will work in tandem with the Strong Cities Network announced late last month at the United Nations.

“It’s going to be coordinated somehow with the Strong Cities Network. What you’re going to see is, they’re going to federalize police across the country,” said [John] Whitehead. “They’re already doing it. Ten federal agents have recently moved in to the Oakland Police Department, and they study social media, create algorithms, studying and creating profiles.”

Patriotic citizens who are labeled as "sovereign citizens" are among the groups determined to be extremists! That seems to fit in with what John Whitehead discusses in his book that is mentioned above.

Beware, my fellow Americans, Barack Obama only has a year and a few months left for him to totally transform America. If all that is told about in this column is accurate, those of us that are vocal about the situation would be deemed suspicious and/or enemies of the state. Notorious leaders of the past and present have been very good at getting public opinion to turn against the very people that are trying to protect their freedoms. Just sayin'...

New Obama czar will hunt 'right-wing' extremists

Loretta Lynch's Justice Department will place new emphasis on home-grown violent extremism committed by so-called ‘right wing' attackers. Just two weeks after it announced a plan to globalize local police departments through the "Strong Cities Network," the Obama administration has added a new tool in its fight against "violent extremism." A new position within the Justice…

Dissenters To Be Detained As “Enemy Belligerents”?

I happened to come across this story tonight, and decided that it needed to be posted, even though it is a little over a month old. I am wondering if - especially thanks to this blog - I'd be determined to be an "enemy belligerent"? If so, can you imagine all the people like Alex Jones, Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck that I could get to meet in the detention camp?

Homeland Security is already implementing technology to be enforced at “security events” which purportedly reads “malintent” on behalf of an individual who passes through a checkpoint. Perhaps the video below explains just how “enemy belligerents” will be identified on American soil.

New bill allows U.S. citizens to be kidnapped and detained without trial indefinitely based on “suspected activity”

Since the establishment media is convinced that tea party members, 9/11 truthers, libertarians, Ron Paul supporters, and basically anyone with a dissenting political opinion is a likely domestic terrorist, they should be celebrating the fact that a new bill would allow the government to detain such people as “enemy belligerents” indefinitely and without trial based on their “suspected activity”.

The “Enemy Belligerent, Interrogation, Detention, and Prosecution Act of 2010,” introduced by Senators John McCain and Joseph Lieberman on Thursday with little fanfare, “sets out a comprehensive policy for the detention, interrogation and trial of suspected enemy belligerents who are believed to have engaged in hostilities against the United States by requiring these individuals to be held in military custody, interrogated for their intelligence value and not provided with a Miranda warning,” writes the Atlantic’s Marc Ambinder.

The full bill can be read here (PDF).

The bill does not distinguish between U.S. citizens and non-citizens, and states that “suspected belligerents” who are “considered a “high-value detainee” shall not be provided with a Miranda warning.”

A person is considered a “high value detainee” if they fulfil one of the following criteria.

(1) poses a threat of an attack on civilians or civilian facilities within the U.S. or U.S. facilities abroad; (2) poses a threat to U.S. military personnel or U.S. military facilities; (3) potential intelligence value; (4) is a member of al Qaeda or a terrorist group affiliated with al Qaeda or (5) such other matters as the President considers appropriate.

Now that the Southern Poverty Law Center and the federal government, via the MIAC report and innumerable other leaked documents, now consider virtually anyone with a dissenting opinion against the state as “posing a threat,” millions of peaceful American citizens could be swept up by this frightening dragnet of tyranny.

However, according to the bill, an individual doesn’t even have to pose a threat to be snatched, detained and interrogated – they can merely be deemed to be of “potential intelligence value” or come under the vague and sweeping mandate of “such other matters as the President considers appropriate”.

This last designation hands Obama dictator powers to have any American citizen kidnapped, detained, and interrogated on a whim.

The only proviso that even hints at some form of check or balance is the measure that states, “The High-Value Detainee Interrogation Team must make a preliminary determination whether the detainee is an unprivileged enemy belligerent within 48 hours of taking detainee into custody.”

"The High-Value Detainee Interrogation Team must submit its determination to the Secretary of Defense and the Attorney General after consultation with the Director of National Intelligence, the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency. The Secretary of Defense and the Attorney General make a final determination and report the determination to the President and the appropriate committees of Congress. In the case of any disagreement between the Secretary of Defense and the Attorney General, the President will make the determination," states the bill.

Chuck Norris may run for president of Texas

On Glenn Beck's radio show last week, Chuck quipped in response to our wayward federal government, "I may run for president of Texas." That need may be a reality sooner than we think. If not me, someone someday may again be running for president of the Lone Star state, if the state of the union continues to turn into the enemy of the state.
