Team. Trump has signed an astonishing executive order:
https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/executive-order-blocking-property-persons-involved-serious-human-rights-abuse-corruption/
These are the people targeted, any relations to child trafficking? #1 is an organ trafficker. They put him on top for a reason. That order allows the US to seize any assets associated with any activities these people are associated with. Has something beyond our comprehension just happened? The US president is the most powerful person in the world. You think Trump has sat around twittering idiots. He's been working on something incredible. Who are these people?

DAN GERTLER IS CONNECTED TO PODESTA. I didn't find any results for "Gertler" in the podesta emails, however the Podesta Emails reveal that four years ago at this time, Skippy Podesta was working on "DGI-related matters." Link is here: https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/50755. NOTE - DGI is the name of Gertler's company, according to Wikipedia (archived here: http://archive.is/KpNhs)). Perhaps we can search for terms related to the many pies in which Gertler dips his bloody fingers. . . .

Whoever Dan Gertler is, Soros' son Alexander "retweeted" the below tweet from "Global Witness," which actually references, w/ an attachment, the president's executive order.
Soros' son is basically saying, "Yes, we welcome busting this guy via the president's new executive order."

Alexander Soros is on the Advisory Board at Global Witness. https://www.globalwitness.org/en/about-us/advisory-board/
Here's a report from last year that Global Witness did on Gertler's activities in the Congo.
And it is QUITE FAIR to say it is a "new law," as indeed it is, "relatively" new, however, only just now being applied.
It's only just now being applied because you can't just put some one this list, there's a whole back and forth process between Congress and Treasury Department. The name are suggested by Congress and vetted by the Treasury Department, the Justice Department and the State Department. Congress fowarded a list of 20 names back in August

In fact, the executive branch was accused of dragging their feet on this sanctions. http://thehill.com/policy/cybersecurity/355000-sens-mccain-cardin-scold-trump-for-missing-russian-sanctions-deadline
Trump is not doing anything new or unexpected. He is executing a law passed by Congress.

Thanks for the info. Trump is first pres to apply the EO.
The intriguing part is the "national emergency" aspect.

I think the main list of 20 names suggested became 13, I think, people sanctioned by name. And the others are connected to those 13 names. Seemed to be a lot of company names.
So if Dan G is sanctioned, they also sanctions companies and banks working with him.
Yeah, that's how the treasury list was put out.
Big Bold names being the 13 and then a list of related entities and people.

Thanks, it will be interesting to see just how much Trump tests the limit of controversial powers that are the president's under a "national emergency," due to president's perceived threats to national security.
