“Homeland Security is armed and locked and ready to blow your brains out if you start protesting martial law.”
~ Gerald Celente
Two days ago on April 28th, 2025, Trump signed yet another executive order, (143 so far over his first 100 days) titled: “Strengthening and Unleashing America’s ‘Law Enforcement’ to Pursue Criminals and Protect Innocent Citizens.” This heinous and arbitrary dictatorial mandate has all the markings of premeditated martial law, while at the same time excusing police brutality, and indemnifying police from liability and all incurred expenses due to suits against them for State-sanctioned aggression. In fact, as Trump stated in this order:
The Attorney General and other appropriate heads of executive departments and agencies (agencies) shall take all appropriate action to maximize the use of Federal resources to:
(i) provide new best practices to State and local law enforcement to aggressively police communities against all crimes;

This has all the markings of total federal control, aggression, exemption from criminal acts by state and federal enforcement goons, and taxpayer subsidized payments for all crimes committed by police, including federal agents, which means all domestic military support (martial law) as well. This is atrocious, and extremely dangerous, in that it is a direct aggressive attack against all freedom of the individual, in favor of protection for the State enforcers only.
By doing this, the evil Trump has just effectively turned loose all these heavily armed, low-IQ police and military thugs controlled by the State, and acting only on orders from the State, to aggressively commit any acts deemed necessary to fully control this population of indifferent and dependent order takers called the ‘citizenry.’ One reading of what could be described as the power’s clause of this executive order, Section 3, makes brutally obvious the martial law aspect of this very nefarious and immoral document.
Sec. 3. Empowering State and Local Law Enforcement. (a) The Attorney General and other appropriate heads of executive departments and agencies (agencies) shall take all appropriate action to maximize the use of Federal resources to:
(i) provide new best practices to State and local law enforcement to aggressively police communities against all crimes;
(ii) expand access and improve the quality of training available to State and local law enforcement;
(iii) increase pay and benefits for law enforcement officers;
(iv) strengthen and expand legal protections for law enforcement officers;
(v) seek enhanced sentences for crimes against law enforcement officers;
(vi) promote investment in the security and capacity of prisons; and
(vii) increase the investment in and collection, distribution, and uniformity of crime data across jurisdictions.
(b) Within 60 days of the date of this order, the Attorney General shall review all ongoing Federal consent decrees, out-of-court agreements, and post-judgment orders to which a State or local law enforcement agency is a party and modify, rescind, or move to conclude such measures that unduly impede the performance of law enforcement functions.
Everything is here, and in place, to affect total federal control over all enforcement, to promote mass aggression against the proletariat, to exempt all crimes by these State thugs, to increase pay to all these enforcers, guaranteeing loyalty only to this fascist government, fund many more prisons to hold all dissenters and freedom-oriented people, intimidation by grossly enhanced prison sentences for any defending themselves from these rogue police and military types, and much more aggressive surveillance by these enforcement agencies.
This idiocy goes even further in its false ‘authorization’ of power, as noted in Section 6 of this vile and immoral mandate, by tying in the use of “Homeland Security Task Forces.” That section states: …….
