THREADIntended as complementary to @ThomasWic's thread at:https://social.quodverum.com/web/statuses/105744162388816437Following is my heavily edited CLIFF NOTES version of the original Newsweek article on secret "continuity of government" plans, which you can read here:https://www.newsweek.com/exclusive-inside-militarys-top-secret-plans-if-coronavirus-cripples-government-1492878The article jumps around quite a bit, making it very easy for a casual reader to miss key points. I've taken what are, to me, the most salient and put them in a more coherent order.

In July 2016, Obama signed classified Presidential Policy Directive 40 on "National Continuity Policy," establishing "essential functions" that government agencies were tasked to protect and retain. Highest Level: National Essential Functions that posit "the continued functioning" of government under the Constitution.To preserve Constitutional rule, agencies were ordered to have not just a line of succession but also one of "devolution":

DEVOLUTIONA duplicate chain of individuals secreted outside Washington and available in a catastrophic emergency. These Above Top Secret "continuity of government" plans for "devolving" leadership to second-tier officials in remote and quarantined locations.Under these extraordinary plans, "devolution" could circumvent the normal Constitutional provisions for government succession, and military commanders could be placed in control around America.

Plans:* May be temporary or for an extended period.* Staff to be located at a geographically dispersed location.* Government to provide leadership visible to the Nation and the world while maintaining the trust and confidence of the American people.Federal Continuity Directive 1, issued days before Trump became president, says that devolution must establish "procedures to transfer statutory authority and responsibilities" to a secondary designated staff to sustain essential functions.

New TerritoryWhat happens if the legislature cannot meet or cannot muster a quorum? Mission Essential:There are more than a dozen different secret assignment plans, all under U.S. Northern Command (NORTHCOM). Most fall under three larger contingency plans:* CONPLAN 3400 for "homeland defense" if America itself is a battlefield.* CONPLAN 3500 for military assistance to civil authorities in an emergency short of armed attack on the nation.* CONPLAN 3600 is the big one...

* CONPLAN 3600 is the one under which the most secret plans to support continuity are nested.The most "compartmented" (read=secret/autonomous) of underground laws to ensure government continuity include Octagon, Freejack and Zodiac.These plans call on various military units in DC, North Carolina and eastern Maryland to defend government operations if there is a total breakdown.Most of these plans have been quietly activated during presidential inaugurals and State of the Union addresses.

A seventh plan – code-named Granite Shadow – lays out the playbook for extraordinary domestic missions that involve weapons of mass destruction."Military sources say that only the massive destruction caused by a nuclear device – * * *...or the enormous loss of life that could be caused by a biological agent...* * * – present catastrophic pressure great enough to justify movement into extra-Constitutional actions and extraordinary circumstances plans."

"WMD is such an important scenario...because it stresses the system most severely."My words: The pandemic is a WMD - a biological agent - which has already hit at the cost of many lives.Me again: This was most certainly grounds for Trump AND Barr to activate Granite Shadow.Under Granite Shadow "special authorities" are pre-delegated by the president and the attorney general.These forces can supplant civil authority or engage in law enforcement only under the strictest conditions...

STRICTEST CONDITIONSUse of federal military forces in law enforcement must pass two tests:TEST 1* "insurrection, domestic violence, unlawful combination, or conspiracy"TEST 2* When the public is deprived of its legal and constitutional protections. * Local civil authorities must be "unable, fail, or refuse" to protect the civilian population.ENDLooks like a perfect storm to me. The "storm after the calm", one might say. And we are in the dreary eye of it now.

Schools are affected again right now, and ONE death has caused everyone to mask up again, but life goes on here much differently than it does there. Long term: There - and therefore anywhere else by extension, given how Trump operates.

He’s just going to pretend for 4 years? How does that make America great? If we’re already in it, do Biden’s terrible decisions mean nothing? They aren’t being carried out? Thanks.

@ThomasWic @Philly_Fan @StevenDouglas @mephibosheth It has to be shocking and disorienting. The American people need to be jolted out of their stupor. The Beltway must be decimated. Otherwise, the corruption will reconstitute itself like the T-1000. It seems like a long shot that the cultural rot can be overcome without a dark age in between times. But we might find out soon either way.

@ThomasWic @StevenDouglas @mephibosheth I guess what I mean is, yes reveal, but if it’s all at once, what are the consequences of the freakout that follows? The how of how it’s revealed is the tricky part. Then again, I suppose it’s pretty tough to tell people “Yeah, we’ve had a backup real government this whole time” in a gradual way. If I was running the show I’d gradually condition people by revealing it piece by piece via TW threads.....

@bestnonna @ThomasWic The idea that O’Shaughnessy would be the one in charge was a flawed assumption.Mind that there is no requirement that any general or group of generals would be in control of ANYTHING.The reason for that? Chain of command for Above Top Secret "pre-delegation" orders would come directly from the President.Just as Trump put Chris Miller in charge of Defense, he could also name majors & captains in key command roles. Autonomously.Nobody can question them.

The real beauty of it:"When Trump produces the incontrovertible evidence of fraud, he will have the full backing of a majority of Americans…"That's because Trump won't be the one to directly present any evidence. Others will speak on ALL OUR BEHALVES.With FINAL AUTHORITY.A proverbial John The Baptist (that NOBODY questions lightly) will prepare the way.

@ikarith @mephibosheth It will be big. Long on results, short on details. As always. We see a Trump Tower in place and it's all we need to know. Behind the scenes are a history of intense negotiations, red tape battles won, concessions made, and a sweeping network of continually delegated responsibilities and details that most can't fathom. And don't want to.But there's the tower, with Macaulay Culkin asking Trump for directions. We'll know just enough to keep most of us happy.

@Philly_Fan @billdavis @nchia @ThomasWic @mephibosheth It may well mark the beginning of a HARD RETURN to an extremely moderate, Kennedyesque "loyal opposition" party.Whether under the Democrat name or not.

@ThomasWic Something that has intrigued me since it happened. The Solarwinds hack. I remember that around the time of the Christmas holidays when the petty Bureaucrats were away.

@ikarith @FearlessFaith @mephibosheth An order not carried out because it was not fully understood is the fault the general giving the order.An order not carried out that WAS fully understood is the fault of the disobedient. But that's direct chain of command. Internal.Externally (WAR), the ultimate aim is to subdue the enemy without fighting. That could require myriad golden retreat bridges. Until the construction of other bridges is no longer possible.

@EfdeeDril2015 It's now possible that the Newsweek article misquoted or misremembered something. The author said, "Under Granite Shadow "special authorities" are pre-delegated by the president and the attorney general."Another article from 2005 by a different author claimed that pre-delegation occurred under the President and the Secretary of Defense, which would have been Chris Miller (a God-fearing, US and Constitution-loving ZEALOT possibly chosen in part for that purpose).

@StevenDouglas @billdavis @nchia @ThomasWic @mephibosheth I used to be in that party. They made me uneasy once it was clear who Bill Clinton really was, but then they went insane for the 2000 election, and that's when I abandoned that ship.

@mephibosheth Good analogy, but I think you mixed the story up a bit. Haman and his nine sons were hanged. Mordechai was the hero. (Well, Esther, but Mordechai came in a close second.. :))@Philly_Fan @nchia @ThomasWic @StevenDouglas

@dianalward @mephibosheth @Philly_Fan @nchia @ThomasWic You, me, and scores of millions just like us. My gut tells me that there's a Manhattan Project of a different kind under way right now, one that is going to SELECTIVELY nuke the shit out of all of them. How patient am I for it to properly complete?I don't care if it SINKS ME personally. For our progeny, I have all the time in the world.

@RagingRabbit @BirdDog @mephibosheth @ThomasWic Most of them ARE clueless. One of their defining characteristics is the NEED for a centralized authority they can trust, to which they can delegate and make providers and arbiters of EVERYTHING. Truth, Morality, Basic Needs, you name it.Problem: That's God - something their leaders will never be.Once they hear what they want to believe - from their god - they're fine. Done.We have MANY like that on our side, but it's NEAR TOTAL for them.

@StevenDouglas I've let that Wictor thread, and your follow up, sit in my head for a little bit and I keep coming back to this part of the Newsweek article.If all of this is correct, Trump did not leave/move out of The White House.Trump was "evacuated".I have a couple other thoughts rattling around in my head that I will come back to later.

@Bigearl1968 @ThomasWic Could, but I don't know how, or have any way of knowing.Obama put the plan in place but he wouldn't have activated Granite Shadow, as there was no nuclear or biological attack. Did he know that a Chinese outbreak would happen, regardless who was president? Dunno.

@StevenDouglas @dianalward @mephibosheth @Philly_Fan @nchia @ThomasWicI'm getting that sense too. It seems like they were prepping for that hit with impeachment and Trump telegraphed a fake hit. Also, it seems that the entire Democrat approach (Time article included) was premised off of Trump's legal team being fired over the issue of election fraud. Trump used that firing to draw them out from what I can see, and crushed them with their own narratives in the Senate.

@ThomasWic @Philly_Fan @StevenDouglas @mephibosheth Don't watch FOX anymore, but bc PDJT was going to be on, I watched that part.It was for Rush L. Near end, Hannity hinted at "other conversation" that they would soon have one his show.PDJT agreed, stating that there would definitely be "a lot to talk about" soon. He reiterated that last nite was for Rush only, but that very serious & numerous conversations were to be expected in the near future.Can't wait!!

@ShamlessSunday @PonySoldier @BirdDog @mephibosheth @ThomasWic Picture yourself sitting with some committed leftists watching something unfold. Important that you do it that way, because what convinces you may have ZERO effect on them and vice versa.When it's finished there's nothing but stone sober astonishment. For everyone.No arguments. No spin. Just reality as it sets in.What do you think would do that?I picture a panel of generals. Somber. Sober. Serious.Few or no politicians.

@StevenDouglas i sure hope you are right and the media liars are exposed for the AH's they are, Chris Wallace as much as Jim Acosta. at least Acosta exposed himself, but Chris stayed in camouflage, apparently misrepresenting himself for years and years to his trusting Fox audience. someone tell me i'm wrong. i want to be wrong.

@StevenDouglas @mephibosheth @ShamlessSunday @PonySoldier @BirdDog @ThomasWic What about Hillary? (or Pelosi, but Hillary popped up for me now).For me Sanders ... is too much coming from position of victim of the cabal.But I still remember Michael Moore's role in 2016.I base this on Dyer's remark in the first shared article, that Biden might be "convinced" to concede. But Biden would be not so strong in this, given his either incapacity or puppet on the strings.
