There are still conflicting views and opinions about the DoD Directive 5240.01, reissued on September 27, 2024. Some quoting official sources claim, adamantly, that it grants no new power to the Defense Department and does not grant legal authority for the military to use lethal force on civilians. Others maintain that the directive now permits lethal force in cases of imminent threats or national security emergencies. Concerns are further dismissed by pointing out that lethal force can only be used with express authority of the Secretary of Defense, as though that could never be granted. A further contingency was included to allow immediate action for a 72-hour period, without such authorization. Is this just routine planning or is this a sinister manipulation to enhance potential future governmental control over citizens?

A news report stated: “The Pentagon has failed to pass its annual financial audit for the sixth consecutive year, prompting conservative lawmakers to call for consequences for the Department of Defense. The Pentagon, which has $3.8 trillion in assets alongside $4 trillion in liabilities, only had seven of 30 sub-audits rated clean by auditors, Defense News reported. Eighteen sub-audits failed, three are still taking place, and one was “qualified,” according to Comptroller Mike McCord.” Is this due to carelessness, incompetence, or something more sinister?
