Thanks for making a post on this. For those impatient to see some dramatic arrests, we need to wait until January 19, 2019 when Trump's executive orders re: military tribunals and grabbing assets of human traffickers goes into effect. The number of documents in association with federal indictments is now up to 50,000 and growing. This is simply astonishing. But these filings are in existing federal courts around the USA. .Can they be transferred to a military court?
and grabbing assets of human traffickers goes into effect.
The EO does only apply for people already named in the EO annex and foreign citizens who may be named at a later point. It does not apply to US citizens who are not already listed in the annex.
You are a lawyer, you should know. Please read the EO again. Thank you.
YES IT DOES. Here it the relevant part abbreviated so you can get the flow of it more easily:
Section 1. (a) All property and interests in property that are in the United States, that hereafter come within the United States, or that are or hereafter come within the possession or control of any United States person of the following persons are blocked and may not be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in:
(i) the persons listed in the Annex to this order;
(ii) any foreign person determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General: (...)
(iii) any person determined by the Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General: (A) to have materially assisted, sponsored, or provided financial, material, or technological support for, or goods or services to or in support of: (1) any activity described in subsections (ii)(A), (ii)(B)(1), or (ii)(B)(2) of this section that is conducted by a foreign person;
There are three categories of people. (i) The persons in the Annex. (ii) Any foreign person doing this shit. (iii) any person who assists any foreign person doing this shit.
If the property comes within the United States or that come within the possession or control of any United States person (Section 1. (a)) then boom - it's blocked.
Eric Schmidt resigned from Alphabet hours after this EO was published. He knew what it meant.
