This is excellent to share to those who lack the initiative to search Patel Patriot’s extremely thorough studies of Devolution! Very clear so that it will be understandable to a majority of people. Excellent, I’ll be sharing this! Thank you!!!

Nicely done.

What I like about the Devolution theory is it is difficult to dismiss. The media tries very hard to create an air of crazy, but they are absolutely silent on this. But the official record is there and the EOs and PEADs, especially those written after the election in 2020 make no sense without it. Plus you have precedent with the Philippines example in WW2. What has been difficult though is to discuss it because of the complexity. This write up 'whets the appetite' to dig further.

I'm glad you think so and I completely agree with your take on the MSM silence regarding the matter. Silence sometimes says the most.

WhoooHooo man! Spot on! Clear, concise, and the perfect aid in edifying those who are beginning to question "what the heck is going on here". (a number that grows daily) (winning!)

I have quite a few friends and family out there who just might take the time to read this excellent summation. Patel's Devo series is superb and I'll be linking his page for those needing more...

I'll be sending this on its way shortly after I take a moment of your time Burning Bright to thank you for this thoughtful piece. THANK YOU !!!!

God bless you as you are such a blessing to so many !!!

BURN ON, BURN BRIGHTLY,

Set your light upon a lamp stand to be a light to others.

Wonderfully written! Thanks for laying this out so clearly and succinctly. Nice to have the info in a format that's easy to forward to friends and family.

I really always felt that Jon (Patel Patriot) was on to something but the reading of (or listening to) those LONG government documents is overwhelming. I wish they were summarized into 1-2 paragraphs in laymen's terms. This is the summary I've been hoping for.

That was my intention. I hope you're now able to listen to more advanced Devolution topics with Jon and Patrick and come away with a more clear understanding of them.

Absolutely PERFECT way to describe it in 'easy to understand' terms. I have tried numerous times to explain it to my normie friends/family, but I always get too into the weeds then end up confusing myself and at the same time losing them....ha!

Thank you for this...will be sharing far and wide. Blessings to you Burning Bright!

Could you kindly point me in the direction of what you are referring to with this:

"open refusal of the U.S. MIL to follow Executive Orders from the current, “acting” Administration".

I'd like to hear more about that too. I just found out about this article from listening to Patel Patriot's power hour show from last night, and so glad they mentioned it! Will sure be interesting to see what happens after "the pit"!!

Hey Lawrence and Margot.

This specific point is referring to the fact that the Biden Admin has publicly confirmed their desires to have the current Army Corps of Engineers project regarding the expansion of Guantanamo Bay be shut down ... and said project is still ongoing.

The Commander-in-Chief has the legal authority to shut any such project down at the wave of a pen.

There's more, but I would start there.

Thanks. Your statement in the article is misleading.

Remember, the Obama/Biden admin wanted to close Gitmo but failed to do so. It’s complicated as the President would need to secure funding and figure out where the prisoners are going to go (including the “enemy combatants” that are held without charge). Apparently Obama was considering an EO toward the end of his term but that option was deemed as “unsavory”.

“As President Obama approaches his final year in power, a political impasse over the Guantánamo prison appears increasingly likely to force him to choose between two politically unsavory options: Invoke executive power to relocate the remaining detainees in defiance of a statute, or allow history to say he never fulfilled his promise to shutter the prison.”

https://www.nytimes.com/2015/11/01/us/politics/guantanamo-is-leaving-obama-with-choices-neither-of-them-simple.html

In the 2019/2020 election cycle, Candidate Biden reaffirmed his desire to close Gitmo, but stated that “you have to have congressional authority to do it”. (https://youtu.be/GVcD7c-_KEY?t=5036)

Having committed to that approach, the optics would not be good if he attempted to force the closure via EO.

Congress do not appear to share Biden's desire to close Gitmo, which has caused Biden to voice his frustration that their bills continue to restrict his options to close the facility:

https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2021/12/27/statement-by-the-president-on-s-1605-the-national-defense-authorization-act-for-fiscal-year-2022/

Given the stance of Congress on this issue, if Biden did attempt to try and close Gitmo via EO there is also a high likelihood that Congress would veto.

The way you’ve worded it in the article makes it sound like Biden has already submitted an Executive Order which has been ignored. This is not true and shouldn’t be passed off as “evidence” that Biden somehow isn’t in control.

Hope that helps. If you have any other examples of the military ignoring Biden please let me know.

Not what I'm attempting to imply in the article. The article is meant to point to much more extensive research done by Patel Patriot.

Excellent reply, though. I apperciate the information.

Thank you. This is very helpful. Devolution is difficult to explain but you found a way to hit the major points clearly and concisely.

I have read every one of the Devolution articles, you made it much easier for me to understand. Thank you!

Fantastic to hear. Hopefully having this foundation allows you to dive back in to Patel's work with clearer focus.

Great summary but where I get challenged by friends and family. Why would the Biden admin play along? They must know that they are not in full control. Why are our soldiers forced to get a jab or lose their post? Who is protecting them?

Expand full comment

This is where "red line" and National Essential Function distinctions and definitions become relevant.

Devolution does not protect all Americans and American institutions from damage while the Executive and Legislative branches are otherwise compromised.

It ensures that National Essential Functions continue, which include MAJOR hits to National Security, etc. Basically, anything we could not come back from.

We've gone through a lot, but we haven't gone through anything as a nation we cannot come back from.

Now, ask yourself one important question:

Sitting here today, in mid-2022, are more people awake to government corruption within our country than they were before? My answer to that question is yes, and in my personal opinion, that is why the operation was deemed necessary in the first place.

That is not necessarily what Devolution alleges. Those are just my thoughts.

Thank you for taking the time to read.

So here’s my take on vaccine mandates. We’re at war! Look around and see how many people don’t know it! Soldiers are front line fighters. They stand up and say “No. you go no further, we’re here to stop you.” But their individual thinking must shift as to who the enemy is. Not nations, but institutions. Cabal. They’re facing different weapons. Syringes and masks and bioweapons. They need to fight with their own logic and stop the enemy by refusing to be “shot” by “friendly fire”.

Souds great to me, wish this would take effect post haste! We need to save America NOW!!!

I saw more clearly from this article and others what is the hold up; the American people are the hold up! They must come to see the light! Critical mass is the hold up.
