This has been my theory since this morning:
The refugee EO is a smokescreen for the real story of the day: Bannon de-fanging the NSC. With Bannon, Flynn & Priebus on the NSC, the only things it will address are what those guys want to have addressed. Other things will slide by. Much will go undetected. This is what they would do if they were planning a large false-flag attack to cement Trump's dictatorial powers - a Reichstag fire, but x10.
The degree of instability now present in the government and the nation means that the event will probably have to occur in the next week.
The lack of vetting of the OEs is intentional. They want to sow chaos throughout American society. It's one of the goals.
This is a Russian-directed operation to bring down the US government and throw your society into complete chaos. Aleksander Dugin wrote the script; Vladislav Surkov is probably the stage manager; Putin is the director; Bannon is executing the play; Trump is the actor on stage with the pen and the voice; Flynn is providing security.
Expecting pride of country in any form from the Americans involved is delusional. They will not stop of their own accord. No amount of political intervention or public pressure is going to work. Even the SC is a long shot IMO.
If you can't get them the country is done, over, kaput.
Just a humble opinion from north of the border.

nature of the American people who did not vote for Trump.
We will not stand for this, ever!

(4,858 posts)...but I'm not sure about your timing of it. I doubt they expected a clusterfuck this big, this soon...but I still feel they'll wait it out a bit, expecting things to calm down. It would stink too much if it were done *now*. My guess is they're waiting for April or May, and feel they can ride it out until then...

(21,088 posts)It's going to be a strategic-level event of some sort. If not, why blind the Joint Chiefs and the Intel community in the NSC?
