White House.Gov Reports: By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) (NEA), the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act (Public Law 114-328) (the “Act”), section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 (8 U.S.C. 1182(f)) (INA), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code,
I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the United States of America, find that the prevalence and severity of human rights abuse and corruption that have their source, in whole or in substantial part, outside the United States, such as those committed or directed by persons listed in the Annex to this order, have reached such scope and gravity that they threaten the stability of international political and economic systems.
Human rights abuse and corruption undermine the values that form an essential foundation of stable, secure, and functioning societies; have devastating impacts on individuals; weaken democratic institutions; degrade the rule of law; perpetuate violent conflicts; facilitate the activities of dangerous persons; and undermine economic markets. The United States seeks to impose tangible and significant consequences on those who commit serious human rights abuse or engage in corruption, as well as to protect the financial system of the United States from abuse by these same persons. I therefore determine that serious human rights abuse and corruption around the world constitute an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States, and I hereby declare a national emergency to deal with that threat.
Trump has basically made a move against human and child traffickers with this new EO to block US assets of human rights violators. You really have to hope this move by Trump to block US assets of human rights violators, also targets those who use people in America for political protests and pay them for it...Some names come to mind with that right. However this further chugs along President Trump's war on human and child trafficking, and eventually the only asset these people will have in America is a prison cell or a deportation order from President Trump.
You really have to wonder how many dollars will be blocked in these US asset blocks on human rights violators, because with human rights violations involving human and child trafficking...This number likely equates to billions of US dollars in asset properties of human rights violators. Hopefully though this EO by Trump blocks all US assets of certain individuals who use humans to push their anti American agendas...Names like Soros come to mind.
