Blank Check Policing: The Rise of Untouchable Enforcers

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


If you recall, we covered both in multiple articles and on the radio President Donald Trump’s unlawful executive orders that would have the feds meddling in the affairs of local municipalities.  Nothing could be more tyrannical and yet, the People seem to be not only allowing it but in some cases, applauding it.

Activist Post comments on what this is leading toward.

What Trump signed on April 28, 2025, under the banner “Strengthening and Unleashing America’s Law Enforcement,” is not a new policy. It is the formal expansion of a long-standing system of protection, militarization, and centralized authority cloaked in law enforcement language. This executive order doesn’t simply embolden police departments—it overrides local autonomy, eliminates procedural accountability, and grants new powers and protections to an already insulated class of state enforcers. It does so while embedding Pentagon assets, national security prerogatives, and DOJ legal cover into the very structure of local law enforcement.


The Foundation: A Culture of Impunity

Long before this executive order, police departments across the country operated with de facto immunity. Unions shielded them. Internal investigations buried misconduct. Arbitration panels reversed terminations. District attorneys refused to prosecute those they relied on for convictions. Courts tolerated fabricated testimony and excessive force. The federal government itself armed departments through the 1033 Program, funneling military equipment into local hands. That program laid the groundwork for militarized policing decades ago.

Now, Trump’s 2025 executive order builds on that infrastructure. It replaces passive militarization with direct federal oversight. It grants new legal protections, absorbs dissenting jurisdictions, and restructures the flow of accountability to bypass local communities entirely.


Timeline of Consolidation

  • 2020: BLM protests push federal agencies to consider structural reform.
  • 2023: National Police Misconduct Database is launched, compiling disciplinary records from 90 federal agencies.
  • January 20, 2025: Trump signs EO 14159, declaring a national emergency related to “invasion,” activating DHS task forces.
  • January 21, 2025: Trump rescinds the misconduct database on his first full day back in office.
  • April 28, 2025: Signs “Strengthening and Unleashing America’s Law Enforcement,” codifying federal control over local police.

Step One: Eliminating Oversight Mechanisms

On day one, Trump dismantled the National Police Misconduct Database. Created in 2023 in response to demands for transparency, it gathered records on over 150,000 federal officers. Its destruction guarantees that officers dismissed or disciplined can now transfer agencies without consequence. There is no longer a national record. No barrier. No warning system.


Step Two: Redefining Law Enforcement as National Security

This order formalizes the federalization of police. It expands the use of military tools and personnel. It reframes criminal enforcement as national defense. It erases the legal boundary between domestic policing and warfighting.

Section 2: “The Attorney General shall… provide legal resources and indemnification to law enforcement officers who unjustly incur expenses and liabilities…”

This guarantees federal legal defense for nearly all conduct carried out by officers during “official duties,” regardless of outcome. Intent, proportionality, or community harm become irrelevant.

Section 3: “… review all ongoing Federal consent decrees, out-of-court agreements, and post-judgment orders… and modify, rescind, or move to conclude…”

This mandates the dismantling of the last structural accountability mechanisms. These were put in place in departments like Baltimore, Chicago, and New Orleans following DOJ investigations into systemic abuse.

Section 4: “… increase the provision of excess military and national security assets… determine how military and national security assets, training, non-lethal capabilities, and personnel can most effectively be utilized…”

This is not 1033 2.0. This is 1033 going operational. Military systems will no longer be handed off. They will be embedded.

Section 5: “… prosecute any applicable violations… with respect to State and local jurisdictions whose officials willfully and unlawfully direct the obstruction of criminal law…”

This criminalizes local resistance. If your city implements sanctuary protections, equity programs, or non-aggressive alternatives to policing, the officials responsible can now be prosecuted under federal law.

Section 6: “… utilize the Homeland Security Task Forces… to coordinate and advance the objectives of this order.”

These HSTFs were created by EO 14159 to respond to an alleged national invasion. That language is now being repurposed internally. Local crime, dissent, or community refusal becomes classified as a national security matter.


Judicial Authority Erased

This order comes as the executive branch is already ignoring the rulings of federal courts. In 2024 and early 2025, multiple U.S. citizens and residents were detained and transferred to off-shore prisons—including in El Salvador—despite court orders affirming their innocence or legal residency. Judges ordered their return. The executive branch ignored them. These aren’t policy disputes. They are direct violations of Article III judicial authority.

This is not law enforcement. It is rendition under bureaucratic disguise. It is the disappearance of people through paperwork.


Historical Parallels: Consolidation Through Legal Channels

The EO mirrors the Nazi consolidation strategy between 1930 and 1934. Hitler used legal mechanisms and emergency decrees to bypass the Weimar Constitution, criminalize political dissent, and centralize policing.

  • 1933: Reichstag Fire used to suspend civil liberties.
  • 1933: Civil service, labor unions, media, and state police absorbed by Nazi Party.
  • 1934: SA purged and replaced by SS—an elite, loyal, and extrajudicial enforcement unit.

The United States now mirrors this process:

  • Local law enforcement made subordinate to federal directives
  • Judicial orders rendered optional
  • Dissent reclassified as obstruction or terror-linked
  • Legal protections redirected from people to enforcers

Expanded Legal Cover: The New SS

The SA was disorganized and violent; Hitler replaced it with the SS to enforce loyalty and precision. The same transformation is now taking place. The rogue brutality of local cops is no longer a liability. It’s being institutionalized and legally shielded.

Federal legal teams. Military assets. Intelligence integration. Unquestionable authority. This new class of federally supported domestic enforcers is not answerable to communities, only to centralized command.


Erasing Localization

Trump’s EO is part of a coordinated agenda: eliminate decentralized governance and voluntary structures. Anything that exists outside federal enforcement is a threat. Mutual aid, barter, intentional communities, parallel economies—all become risks to be monitored and controlled.

What they fear most isn’t protest. It’s localization.

Self-governance outside the grid breaks the visibility chain. Decentralization destroys compliance by default. That is the real threat. And this order targets it directly by eliminating local discretion.


Final Codification of State Violence

This EO doesn’t merely mark a change in strategy. It enshrines the use of force as a federal right, untethered from the people it claims to protect. Law has never been about justice. It has been about enforcement. Now that enforcement comes with surveillance, Pentagon gear, and DOJ immunity.

The structure now admits what it always intended: those who live outside it are enemies of it.

Authoritarianism isn’t emerging. It never left. Now it has a formal nameplate, a security grant, and full-spectrum defense.

The war on decentralization is no longer abstract. It is codified. Signed. Funded. Deployed.

It’s not on the horizon. It’s already here.
