As the Liberty Lobby noted first in a 1965 pamphlet now seen as a classic prophecy:
“More frightening than all its contents if the omission of a definition of the phrase ‘national emergency.’ The decision as to what constitutes a ‘national emergency’ is left to the capricious whim of just one man: the president, whoever he might be.”
This feature has always been the most menacing aspect of government by bureaucratic order disguised as “emergency management.”
But past administrations have found it politically hazardous to invoke crisis conditions without being confronted by some sort of threat of disaster genuine or staged which alarmed large numbers of citizens.
“Any president can be sure of wielding political control only over his own appointees.”
"Since in the past the execution of EOs was the responsibility of long established departments and agencies the Department of Justice, for Instance, or the Federal Bank Supervisory Agencies there were some built in limitations on just how far this presidential power grab could reach.”
With the advent of the Carter era, all this began to change.
The National Security Council in the executive branch was handed over to trusted academic henchmen of the Rockefeller dynasty, to “pragmatic professors” such as Zbigniew Brzezinski and Professor Samuel Huntington, who view the U.S. as a “techinetronic society” in which the Constitution and its safeguards are no longer “relevant.”
Huntington, known as the author of a major Trilateral position paper arguing that jet-age America needed a “centralized,” bureaucratic government, was put in charge of drawing up the framework for it.
Appointed to the senior staff of the National Security Council soon after Carter’s election, Huntington came up with a study suggesting that the most effective road to a fully bureaucratized and “systems-managed” U.S. lay through a “total” approach to federal emergency management.
Critics have dubbed him Samuel “Mad Dog” Huntington for his zeal in promoting bureaucratic totalitarianism. But the Trilateral professor is man of dangerous brilliance.
He saw that crisis management could be used to replace the Constitutional system if two main “flaws” were removed its dependence: on the traditional civil service for enforcement: and on some sort of visible, alarming disaster or dislocation for justification.
