OpEd: Obama’s power grab

Executive order expands presidential prerogative

By Jeffrey T. Kuhner - The Washington Times - Thursday, March 22, 2012

"President Obama has given himself the powers to declare #MartialLaw - especially in the event of a war with #Iran. It is a sweeping #PowerGrab that should worry every American.

"On March 16, the White House released an executive order, 'National Defense Resources Preparedness.' The document is stunning in its audacity and a flagrant violation of the Constitution. It states that, in case of a war or national emergency, the federal government has the authority to take over almost every aspect of American society. Food, livestock, farming equipment, manufacturing, industry, energy, transportation, hospitals, health care facilities, water resources, defense and construction - all of it could fall under the full control of Mr. Obama. The order empowers the president to dispense these vast resources as he sees fit during a national crisis."

“Jeremy Corbyn speaks to the Canary about the corporate power grab taking place in politics”

by Ed Sykes in The Canary @thecanaryuk

“The question about the corporate power grab is the most fundamental question there is. What we have is global corporations, a very small number of them, have massive incredible power, far greater power than almost any national government anywhere”

Sooo... here's something I didn't expect. Apparently the South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol is trying to grab power?

To our friends in South Korea: good luck in the coming hours and days. I wish you the best in protecting your democracy. ❤️
