Sometimes I wish the world ended in 2012. That time is all the time.

Imagine if we hadn’t flipped the house in 2018.

These powers are already in place though. They were put in place by Obama when he signed the NDAA into law back in 2011. All the government has to do is declare a national emergency and they take control over everything and can detain you without a lawyer or trial for as long as they want.

Does anyone have links to the DOJ documents

Please no Please know many people who follow what a wealthy politician says but please look at what you and yours stand to lose please

Why?

Yeah, I also thought that. Why would you 'indefinitely detain' someone during a Coronavirus outbreak? It sounds expedient to me. I call power-grabbing bullshit.

Ah yes, the jar jar binks emergency powers proposal...

Remember when Obama did something like this, oh yeah, he didn't.

Authoritarian right back at it again. Fiscal responsibility....blah blah blah you brain washed fuckin morons

Something like 75% of inmates in local jails haven't been found guilty of a crime, just moving it to federal level

Trump is trying to get re-elected this year. I know a lot of people hate him and I’m not dismissing their reasons for hating him, his policies, or his actions, but I think it’s very unlikely we’ll see martial law during an election year. It’s simply too much of a target to paint him as a dictator. Even if you hate his policies you know he’s not going to make himself the dictator meme.

I think these kinds of powers are exactly the reason masks are not good for the people and tests were not ready in time.

They know a Reichstag Fire moment when they see it.

These government agencies just can’t stop themselves when it comes to amassing power at any cost.

I think these assholes have pre-written legislation sitting around just waiting for the right crisis to happen so they can pound it through congress while everyone is scared (looking at you, Patriot act).

This is the kind of authoritarian BS that we can all agree should have no place in our government.

Well it’s Trump and his hand picked fixer that want to do this... with people like Lindsey Graham and what not.. Mitch McConnell.. Some shady Democrats too, but more on the right for sure. Definitely no progressives are going to vote for something like this

I thought Trump was fighting for you guys the “deep state”

Trumps been hosing you guys, pulling a fast one

The constitution has been null and void for years now ever since the Patriot Act, NDAA2012, and if the EARN IT Act goes thru that might be the final nail in the coffin

SS: Once again, our corrupt government serving their New World Order overlords, threatening to suspend our constitutional rights over a crisis that they likely engineered. Raise fucking hell this time.

The DOJ needs to calm down. There are extreme historical reasons for limitations like this that apply in every situation a society can come under. A pandemic is easily one of the top ways power has been grabbed in the past, and subsequently abused.
