This was the riot when Trump won in 2016. There is even concern that
they might try to assassinate Trump if he wins. He better keep some
private bodyguards. These Neocons have seized power and will not simply
go quietly. There are schemes rumored that the Transition Integrity Project,
dominated by the LEFTISTS, will stage a major riot in DC if Trump wins
far worse than in 2017. They intend to force him to call out the
National Guard and then claim that is proof he is a dictator. They plan
to block out everything Trump tries to do to paralyze the country. There
is no more America.
To
the best of my knowledge, the updated U.S. Department of Defense (DOD)
directive does not authorize federal troops to use lethal force against
citizens, contrary to social media posts but the subtle changes include
threat to national security in the revision of the 2024 U.S.
presidential election. However, under the Posse Comitatus Act, it is illegal for military personnel to use force against people in the United States unless for self-defense or where “under circumstances expressly authorized by the Constitution or Act of Congress.” The
National Guard is the exception. If the Civil War broke out, chances
are nobody would pay attention to this statute, but it could be argued
that they were acting in self-defense.
Focus of the 2016 Version
The 2016 version of the directive did not mention the use of lethal force. Instead, it focused on:
- Civil liberties protections: Ensuring strict oversight for operations involving U.S. citizens.
- Intelligence collection restrictions: Limiting when and how U.S. person’s information (USPI) could be collected.
- Privacy safeguards: Protecting privacy rights and preventing unauthorized data collection.
The 2016 directive centered around intelligence gathering, with no mention of lethal force
New Provisions in the 2024 Version
The 2024 update introduces a dramatic shift, particularly regarding domestic operations. Section 3.3.a.(2)(c) now explicitly permits lethal force in cases of imminent threats or national security emergencies, provided the action complies with legal oversight, specifically DoDD 5210.56, which governs the use of deadly force by DoD personnel.
