Something very profound happened in the U.S. on December 21 with the passage of President Donald Trump’s “Executive Order Blocking the Property of Persons Involved in Serious Human Rights Abuse or Corruption”. The order declared a state of national emergency concerning human rights and corruption, and named specific individuals and organizations that would have their bank accounts and assets frozen regardless of where in the world the abuses had occurred.
While the mainstream media has largely ignored Trump’s Executive Order, the alternative media has been paying close attention. Many have noted the Executive Order is far more significant than what it appears to be on the surface. Rather than just freezing the financial resources of foreign citizens linked to the Russian sphere of influence, as it superficially appears to do, it is really targeted at members of the “Deep State” (aka Cabal or Illuminati) that have been involved in human trafficking, pedophilia and systemic corruption all over the planet.
The language of the Executive Order is very open ended in terms of how international corruption and human rights abuses threaten US national security:
I,
DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, find that
the prevalence and severity of human rights abuse and corruption that
have their source, in whole or in substantial part, outside the United
States, such as those committed or directed by persons listed in the
Annex to this order, have reached such scope and gravity that they
threaten the stability of international political and economic
systems…The United States seeks to impose tangible and significant
consequences on those who commit serious human rights abuse or engage in
corruption, as well as to protect the financial system of the United
States from abuse by these same persons.
I
therefore determine that serious human rights abuse and corruption
around the world constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the
national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States, and
I hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat.
Its annex identifies key individuals and organizations, several of whom are clearly associated with Russia. The Executive Order is linked to the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act that emerged from the murder of a prominent dissident exposing human rights abuses and corruption in Russia.
This linkage can easily lead readers into falsely believing that the Executive Order is solely intended to target corrupt Russian officials, and corruption and human rights abuses by countries in Russia’s sphere of influence.
Yet, as a number of alternative media sources point out, Trump’s Executive Order goes well beyond the Russian sphere of influence. It is really targeting the Deep State, and fulfilling his 2016 campaign pledge to “drain the swamp” .
