I'm actually sort of surprised Trump didn't already sign an executive order saying he has the power to "deputize" an unlimited number of militia members to stop "foreign enemies from infesting the United States of America".

I mean he's like 95% of the way there; he already did an order deputizing a bunch of law enforcement adjacent folks. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/01/23/trump-deputizes-federal-agents-arrest-immigrants/77914576007/

they are waiting for grok or whatever LLM they are using to finish running the entire U.S. population and cross reference with all the NSA datasets. get a list of loyalists and a kill list. then contact the loyalists to deputize as federal marshals and give them a download link for an app that gives directives.

like i wish this was BS (it kind of is) but it would vaguely follow the Yarvinist plan with a Trumpian flair so i wouldn't be suprised if they rolled it out like this.

That was the martial law one he did on day one. That called for the assessment on Hitler's bday. I'm not sure why he didn't just do it.
