A year after the start of WWI, President Woodrow Wilson addressed his message to Congress and warned that the “gravest threats against our national peace and safety” did not come from “other governments”, but from “within our own borders”.
“Citizens of the United States,” Wilson continued, “born under other flags but welcomed under our generous naturalization laws to the full freedom and opportunity of America, who have poured the poison of disloyalty into the very arteries of our national life.”
Wilson, a notorious racist and a supporter of the KKK who had contempt for a wide variety of other peoples, likely had German immigrants, but not just them, in mind when he called for what would become the Espionage Act so that “we may be purged of their corrupt distempers.”
“I need not suggest the terms in which they may be dealt with,” Wilson concluded.
While there were indeed pro-German terrorist conspiracies in those days, including the Black Tom bombing which damaged the Statue of Liberty and a plot to infect the country’s horses, the Espionage Act of 1917 went far beyond prosecuting criminal activities. Wilson had sought, but not received, the power to censor the press, he did get the power to censor the mail.

When former President Trump was indicted under the Espionage Act, he was being targeted by a law that from its very inception had been created to suppress the political opposition. While elements of the Espionage Act were watered down over the years and only media hacks still quote “shouting fire in a crowded theater” as if it were standing law, that hasn’t really changed.
Widely loathed by liberals and leftists, who were justly often the targets of it, the Espionage Act was mostly used against actual spies during the Cold War. That changed dramatically under Obama who dusted it off and used it to go after reporters and whistleblowers. A decade ago, the Obama administration used the Espionage Act to target FOX News reporter James Rosen.
The Espionage Act allowed Obama to use warrantless wiretapping to bust leakers who were in many cases acting as whistleblowers and trying to expose his administration’s misconduct.
The abuse of the Espionage Act against reporters foreshadowed Russia-Gate. Having realized how useful the package of national security tools could be against political opponents in the press, the Obama administration decided to go ahead and use them against Trump.
When Obama and Clinton associates in the Justice Department targeted Gen. Flynn for conducting preemptive diplomacy for the incoming Trump administration, they explored using the Espionage Act and the Logan Act. The current charges against Trump are not an unexpected development, they’re what Russia-Gate was always about.
Power corrupts. And once the Obama administration realized that it could use the Espionage Act to kill unfavorable stories in the media, it was obvious that its members would not stop until they had escalated to using it directly against political opponents from Gen. Flynn to Trump.
~Snip~
Biden, likely unknowingly, followed in Wilson’s footsteps by deploying claims of foreign election interference to suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story during the election.
The abuse of national security by Democrats to go after the political opposition is not a new phenomenon. It’s been underway for over a century with the Espionage Act.
Charging Trump under the Espionage Act is no accident: it’s a proud tradition. It’s also a deeply corrupt and illegal attack on the Constitution. But that’s the function that the Espionage Act has served for over a century under Democrats. Corrupt megalomaniacal Democrats like Wilson, Obama and Biden use claims of national security to illegally investigate their opponents.
And whether it’s Wilson’s affair with a married woman, Hunter Biden’s harem of Uber prostitutes, or Joe Biden’s money from China, the Espionage Act is a red flag for presidential corruption.
National security is legitimate when it protects Americans from foreign enemies, not when it’s used, as Wilson and Biden have, to target Americans under the facade of national security.


Commentary:
Kudos to Dan on his linking Joe Biden and is Maoist DSA Democrats to Woodrow Wilson also a Socialist Democrat.
In previous posts I've indicated that Wilson a Racist Democrat revived the KKK, returned America to racial segregation and was the father of today's Democratic Party.
Biden and Wilson are the two worst Presidents in history followed by Carter, the Espionage Act is unconstitutional created by Wilson and implemented by Obama and now Biden is political tyranny against America...
Consider every policy and agenda of Joe Biden and is DSA Democrat Party administration beginning Jan 21, 2021. Obviously, each have been designed for destruction of American Society, our Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

Trump pardons Ethel and Julius Rosenberg!

:iyfyus.jpg: President Donald Trump will pardon Ethel and Julius Rosenberg posthumously, the White House announced today. The Rosenbergs were convicted of providing top secret information about US technology and nuclear weapon designs to the Soviets, and were executed in 1953 for their crimes...

Putting Trump in the same category as Edward Snowden, Julian Assange, Reality Winner, Daniel Hale, etc.

It raises an interesting question. Is he an enemy of the state, or an enemy of an overzealous security state, which has now taken over the right of the people to control the destiny of this nation?

Thanks for this. All of America should read this. I had no idea of the background of the espionage act. I had heard, however, from an attorney on Fox that the Trump indictment has to do more with the Records Act than the Espionage Act.

Not being a lawyer, I don't know what they know about all this, but from what I do know, Trump is not guilty of a damn thing

The Exciting Adventures of Prosecuting Political Opponents with the Espionage Act ​

Are you a president with approval ratings lower than a midget with a bad back? Never fear, the Espionage Act is here to help.
With the aid of this exciting tool, you too can prosecute your political enemies just like a former KKK president. Proven reliable for over 100 years, the Espionage Act is tailor made for inventing and selectively finding crimes by political opponents or just guys you don’t like, and launching fishing investigations to find or manufacture new crimes they can be investigated for.
Join us on this exciting new episode where we delve into the history of the Espionage Act, Woodrow Wilson’s torrid romances and what he has in common with Joe Biden.

​

Commentary:
IMO, there’s a line of thinking that folks have, that makes them believe that all the Presidents we’ve had up until Carter, have all been champions of the United States. Those Presidents all seem to have some mystique about them, as if they were all barrel-chested freedom fighters that helped lay the foundations that made this country great.
This is the results of poor teaching of American history within our schools today. They're failing to inform our young.
Doesn’t take much research to see that he was corrupt and evil. Any high school freshman can research tis and compare Wilson to the current demented clown in office.
Interesting info from an article about the Espionage At...
Within a few weeks of declaring war in 1917, President Woodrow Wilson signed the Espionage Act.
This law, which is still largely in effect, makes it a crime to do three things. First, to convey false information in order to interfere with the American military, or promote the success of America’s enemies. Second, to cause or attempt to cause insubordination within the military. Third, to willfully obstruct military recruitment or enlistment.
More than 2,000 people were prosecuted under the Espionage and Sedition acts during the war.
If what the author of the article is saying, is true, we should all having a hard time figuring out when Pres Trump did any of that.

The Presidential Records Act
Establishes that Presidential records automatically transfer into the legal custody of the Archivist as soon as the President leaves office.

Is anyone here, divorced, with legal custody, of their child? Does your child live with you? Or does the child live with their mother?

The National Archive, has legal custody, not physical custody.

Trump violated no law

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Thank goodness Trump is in the dock.

If convicted in or and J6, docs, and or GA election interference, no bail will be permitted.

The Judge will order the bailiffs, "Take him down. The SS agents, too."
