Every day you think that the media can’t get any lower, or any more scummier than they already. Then they pull crap like this. NPR liberal media hacks, that we fund with our tax dollars are spreading yet another crazy conspiracy theory about Trump. NPR thinks that Trump is going to test chemical weapons on US citizens or something. Seriously, this is what your tax payer dollars pay for.
How is Trump going to use chemical weapons on citizens? By national emergency of course. Plus, according to NPR, Trump is going to seize everyone’s bank accounts, assets and shut down communications too. All because of a national emergency. NPR didn’t seem concerned when Obama declared 13 national emergencies or rapist Bill Clinton declared 17.
Tell me again why my tax dollars are paying for this shit?

“When the president declares a national emergency, he has access to powers contained in more than a hundred different laws that Congress has passed over the decades. And those laws basically represent Congress’s best guess as to powers that the president might need in an emergency, in a situation where Congress didn’t have time to act,” Goitein explained.
“But there are powers here that would allow the president to shut down communications facilities, radio stations, to freeze Americans’ bank accounts and seize their assets,” she said. “There are powers that allow the president, believe it or not, to suspend the prohibition on government testing of chemical weapons and biological agents on unwitting human subjects. So it’s really extraordinary what some of these powers would allow.”
Obviously, anyone right-of-center would be crucified by the media for floating such a wild conspiracy theory. At no point during the interview did Goitein manage to explain that President Barack H. Obama declared 13 national emergencies – 11 of which are still active – and that there are currently 31 active national emergencies in effect from past presidents. The NPR host did not bother to bring that up, either.
Shockingly, none have resulted in the federal government testing chemical weapons on its citizens.
