DHS Expanding Operations Into More Than 70 Countries, Violating Travelers and National Sovereignty

By Aaron Kesel

The Department of Homeland Security is expanding globally in an effort to “strengthen international security while preventing a terrorist attack, drug shipment, or human smuggling ring” according to a report by the New York Times.

An estimated 2,000 Homeland Security employees from Immigration and Customs Enforcement and special agents to Transportation Security Administration officials are now being deployed to more than 70 countries around the world.

While the New York Times reports this is an effort under Trump, the reality is that this started in October 2010 under Obama, when nearly 190 countries signed a historic ICAO agreement that establishes a foundation for aviation security.

This effort to push U.S. immigration laws in European countries has created tensions between the U.S. and other nations.

In Germany, lawmakers have questioned the department’s counter-terrorism Immigration Advisory Program, where travelers at foreign airports are investigated and sometimes interviewed by plainclothes Customs and Border Protection officers before they are permitted to board flights into the United States.

While in Canada, Canadians flooded their prime minister’s office in August with letters and emails protesting legislation to allow American customs officers stationed at Canadian airports and train stations to question, search and detain Canadian citizens. Unnamed government officials told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation that the volume of mail received was “unprecedented” and surprised officials.

Fulfilling a requirement of the 9/11 Act, 100 percent of high-risk cargo on international flights bound for the United States is screened according to the DHS website. According to the U.S. this is needed to prevent drug/human trafficking.

A recent congressional report found that the cost of stationing Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents overseas is about four times as expensive as a domestic post. And in September testimony to the House Homeland Security Committee, the National Treasury Employees Union raised concerns about plans to station additional customs officers abroad amid “critical staffing shortages at the nation’s ports of entry.” The union represents 25,000 Customs and Border Protection employees. So it’s not only violating other countries national sovereignty but it costs the U.S. more to continue this process.

Lawmakers have urged Homeland Security officials to assess the costs and benefits of stationing thousands of employees overseas while the department looks to hire 15,000 new ICE and border patrol agents in domestically in the United States as part of President Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration as we reported before.

Further, the DHS wants to develop advanced facial recognition technology for use in airports, train stations and border checkpoints domestically. It’s not known if the agency also wants to utilize this technology in foreign countries where its Customs and Border Protection employees are stationed.

In fact, in the U.S. these facial recognition systems are already rolling out in some airports according to an account by Tanvi Misra, a staff writer at CityLab.

“What I thought was actually just a machine that was supposed to scan my boarding pass was actually a facial recognition machine,” Misra said, “And it was quite a surprise that that kind of process had been taking place without much communication about what it was, or what options I had.”

U.S. President Donald Trump seems to be expanding the global police state in the name of national security to protect against terrorism, human trafficking and the drug trade.

  1. DHS is already a proven failure in the ‘Homeland’ so what they are planning is to prove this failure to 70 more countries world wide. What a joke.

  2. The US Government was the perpetrator of 911.

  3. Now the rest of the world will get to experience the bullshit we experience right here, D”Homeland”S yet it is going international… once you implement and employ these goons around the world, the task will be transferred over to the UN, and the goons will unconsciously change their uniforms/helmets and “allegiance” over to the world government agency without much protest.

    Just like what happened to an infantry division of the us army on 10/10/95, only Michael New had the guts to protest it.

  4. US of A….what a filthy rotten octopus.

  5. If you look at the roster of US personnel at any major US embassy, you will find that there are representatives of all of our cabinet level agencies stationed there, including the IRS, but the Host country has a great deal of control. This is why the Canadian government got so many complaints about their citizens being harrassed by our diplomatic personnel. Due to our paranoia and xenophobia we are becomming too intrusive in many places according to at least some of the citizens or visitors to these countries, and under Trump, there have not been ambassodors appointed to oversee the operations of our State Department facilities. He seems to want to do all of the duties of these missing ambassadors where, again, he is not competent. This over reaching by our embassy personnel is causing the havoc that he wants to see. Before he even formally took office he was attempting to make our foreing policy fit his world view, which is nuts. Other countries are not favorablely impressed by his ‘Mage America Great Again” approach where he expects that we can impose our will on all other nations, while ignoring our home made problems like the Marine who was arrested earlier this month for allegedly plotting an ISIS type of terrorist attack in SF. Now, because of the Texas church massacre by an AF vet whose records were not sent to the proper authorites who could have blocked his gun purshases, the DOD is trying to close the barn doors after the horses have escaped. He has made a big deal over illegals, where they are just a minor part of the problem, and most would not have become illegals if Congress had kept our immigration laws up to date. Then there is reality. While the containers that land at our ports are mostly sent through places where they can be scanned for radioaciviity and maybe some drugs that produce some odor, our real problem is the bringing in of opiods which do not in capsule form have any odor, with only the personnel to actually search maybe 1 in a 1000. then there is the fact that when DHS tries to smuggle guns or explosives through our TSA they are 95% successful, and so we have the appearance of more airline safety without the actual safety. As usual, in October, there was a mass entry of people seeking asylum under a law passed about 15 years ago, and Congress has failed to change the law even though it happens every year, with most not showing up for their immigration hearings. The probable reason for this failure to plug a known leak is because if comes to the floors of Congress that would open the whole too old immigration laws to change. We expect ‘conservatives’ to try to slow down changes, but what is happening is that any change has now become forbidden.

  6. Okay, so US already has military bases in over 170 countries!!! Now we are “occupying” so that we can do our Homeland Security thang overseas?!!!!!!!!

    It’s just a matter of time before the whole world gangs up on us!!! We are sooo out of place and have not respect for the sovereignty of other countries. In the mean time, we’re going broke or we are at least running on fake $$$. This is beyond the pale!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Good on you Canada for protesting our being there!!!

  7. There is no national sovereignty to protect because there are no borders anymore. What we think are borders are really just UN checkpoints. All UN nations are bankrupt and in debt, and all are beholden to the UN, who, through the BIS (Bank of International Settlements), controls us all. And all UN nations use UCC law (Uniform Commercial Code = admiralty = contract = maritime =Roman Canon ecclesiastical = religious) and all are under martial law rule to uphold their debt. The UN is a Jesuit/Vatican production to resurrect and expand the Holy Roman Empire.

    This move toward total global domination and control is accomplished by a triumverate of power: Washington DC, a sovereign Roman nation apart from the states (which originally was Rome, Maryland) is the military branch, City of London, a sovereign Roman nation apart from England is the financial branch, and the Vatican, a sovereign Roman nation apart from Italy is the temporal branch. This is why we’ve been at war all but I think eight years. That’s our purpose, and that’s what needs exposing!

    I post these truths below a lot, but every time I do, I hope people copy and paste them and pass the around when we see articles like this.

    1) The IRS is not a U.S. government agency. It is an agency of the IMF. Diversified Metal Products v. IRS et al. CV-93-405E-EJE U.S.D.C.D.I, Public Law 94-564, Senate report 94-1148 pg. 5967, Reorganization Plan No. 26, Public Law 102-391.

    2) The IMF is an agency of the U.N. Black’s Law Dictionary 6th Ed. p. 816.

    3) The United States has NOT had a Treasury since 1921. 41 Stat. Ch. 214 p. 654.

    4) The U.S. Treasury is now the IMF. Presidential Documents Volume 29 – No. 4 p. 113, 22 U.S.C. 285-288.

    5) The United States does not have any employees because there is no longer a United States. No more reorganizations. After over 200 years of bankruptcy it is finally over. Executive Order 12803.

    6) The FCC, CIA, FBI, NASA and all of the other alphabet gangs were never part of the US government. Even though the “US Government” held stock in various agencies. US v Strang, 254 US 491, Lewis v. US, 680 F.2d, 1239.

    7) Social Security Numbers are issued by the UN through the IMF. The application for a Social Security number is the SS5 form. The Department of the Treasury (IMF) issues the SS5 not the Social Security Administration. The new SS5 forms do not state who publishes them while the old form states they are Department of the Treasury. 20 CFR Chap. 111 Subpart B 422.103 (b).

    8) There are no Judicial courts in America and have not been since 1789. Judges do not enforce Statutes and Codes. Executive Administrators enforce them. FRC v. GE 281 US 464, Keller v. PE 261 US 428, 1 Stat. 138-178.

    9) There have not been any judges in America since 1789. There have just been administators. FRC v. GE 281 US 464, Keller v. PE 261 US 428 1 Stat. 138-178.

    10) According to GATT you must have a Social Security Number. House Report (103-826). General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) was a multilateral agreement regulating international trade. According to its preamble, its purpose was the “substantial reduction of tariffs and other trade barriers and the elimination of preferences, on a reciprocal and mutually advantageous basis.”

    11) New York City is defined in the Federal Regulations as the United Nations. Rudolph Guiliani stated on C-Span that “New York City is the capital of the World”. For once, he told the truth. 20 CFR Chap. 111, subpart B 422.103 (b) (2) (2).

    12) Social Security is not insurance or a contract. Nor is there a Trust Fund.. Helvering v. Davis 301 US 619, Steward Co. V. Davis 301 US 548.

    13) Your Social Security check comes directly from the IMF which is an agency of the United Nations. Look at it if you receive one. It will have written on the top left “United States Treasury.”

    14) You own no property. Slaves can’t own property. Read carefully the deed to the property you think is yours. You are listed as a tenant. Senate Document 43, 73rd Congress 1st session.

    15) The most powerful court in America is not the US Supreme Court, but the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. 42 Pa. CSA 502.

    16) The King of England financially backed both sides of the Revolutionary War. Treaty of Versailles, July 16, 1782, Treaty of Peace 8 Stat 80.

    17) You cannot use the US Constitution to defend yourself because you are not a party to it. “”No private person has a right to complain by suit in court on the ground of a breach of the United States constitution; for, though the constitution is a compact, he is not a party to it.” Padelford Fay & Co v. The Mayor and Alderman of the City of Savannah 14, Georgia 438, 520.

    18) America is a British colony. The “United States” is a corporation, not a land mass and it existed before the Revolutionary War and the British troops did not leave until 1796. Respublica v. Sweers 1 Dallas 43, Treaty of Commerce 8 Stat 116, Treaty of Peace 8 Stat. 80, IRS Publication 6209, Articles of Association, October 20, 1774.

    19) Britian is owned by the Vatican. Treaty of 1213.

    20) The Pope can abolish any law in the United States. Elements of Ecclesiastical Law, Vol. 1, 53-54.

    21) A 1040 Form is for Tribute paid to Britain. IRS Publication 6209.

    22) The Pope claims to own the entire planet through the laws of conquest and discovery. Papal Bulls of 1495 & 1493. [most Papal Bulls are written on human skin]

    23) The Pope has ordered the genocide and enslavement of millions of people. Papal Bulls of 1455 & 1493.

    24) The Pope’s laws are obligatory on everyone. Bened. XIV., De Syn. Dioces, lib, ix, c. vii., n. 4. Prati, 1844, Syllabus prop 28, 29, 44.

    25) We are slaves and own absolutely nothing, including our children. Government’s ownership of America’s children is not secret. There are many court cases which openly declare that our purported government owns virtually all of America’s children. “The primary control and custody of infants is with the government.” Tillman v. Roberts 108 So. 62, Van Koten v. Van Koten 154 NE 146, Senate Document 43 & 73rd Congress 1st. session, Wynehammer v. People 13 NY Rep 378, 481. According to Nichols v. Nichols (Civ. App., 247 S.W. 2d 143), …in its capacity of “parens patriae,” government may assume direction, control, and custody of children, and delegate such authority to whom it may see fit. (See, Ridgeway v. Walter, 133 S.W.2d 748, 281 Ky. 140;Shelton v. Hensley, 299 S.W. 979, 222 Ky 808.)

    26) Military dictator and freemason George Washington divided up the States (estates) into Districts. Messages and papers of the Presidents Volume 1 page 99, 1828 dictionary for definition of estate.

    27) “The People” does not include you and me. Barron v. Mayor and City Council of Baltimore 32 US 243.

    28) It is not the duty of the police to protect you. Their job is to protect the corporation and arrest code breakers. Sapp v. Tallahassee, 348 So. 2nd. 363, Reiff v. City of Phila. 477 F. Supp 1262, Lynch v. NC Dept. of Justice, 376 SE 2nd 247.

    29) Everything in the “United States” is up For Sale: bridges, roads, water, schools, hospitals, prisons, airports, etc. Anyone check who bought Klamath Lake? Executive Order 12803.

    30) We are human capital. Executive Order 13037.

    31) We are nothing more than property of the federal government which is nothing more than a foreign corporation. “Therefore, the U.S. citizens residing in one of the states of the union, are classified as property and franchises of the federal government as an “individual entity.” Wheeling Steel Corp. v. Fox, 298 U.S. 193, 80 LEd. 1143, 56 S.Ct. 773. March 10, 1936.

    32) In one of his speeches outlining what he called a “New World Order,” then-President George H.W. Bush said a “credible United Nations can use its peacekeeping role to fulfill the promise and vision of the UN’s founders.” On the American side, the top “UN founder,” who went on to become the UN’s first secretary general, was Alger Hiss. He was ultimately convicted for lying about being a Soviet spy. The murderous regime in Moscow was also among the key “UN founders.”

    33) The UN has financed the operations of the United States government for over 50 years and now owns every man, woman and child in America. The UN holds ALL of the land of America in Fee Simple.

    34) We have all been tricked into the jurisdiction of a foreign power, and they have lowered our legal statuses to that of slaves in bondage. See: “Capitis Diminutio Maxima”. When you see your name in all caps, and EVERY bit of commerce is with that status, that refers to your legal fiction ONLY, and that is how they’ve gotten away with removing our rights and replacing them with privileges for which we must pay (contracts – with licenses, registrations, certifications, degrees, etc.).

    35) Proof we are now under martial law rule: “As we have said, the Federal Personal Income Tax is collected under a military venue within a martial law jurisdiction. Federal Reserve Notes are Military Scrip circulated within a military venue. Under the Social Security Act [1933], there was brought into existence Ten Federal Regional Areas [sounds a lot like FEMA regions, yes?]. These Ten Federal Regional Areas are the same as a military base…” Dyett v. Turner 439 P2d 266 @ 269, 20 U2d 403 [1968] Judge A.H. Ellett, Utah Supreme Court.

    • Let’s see if Trump get this on his plate.

      • Ha! Doubtful, Undecider~ You probably know, but others don’t, that Trump is one of them. Left wing/right wing, both attached and beholden to the same filthy bird. The Clintons and the Trumps are buddies – they attended his wedding to Melania and he donated to Clinton and Obama’s campaigns. He’s also related to them because all presidents are related to each other but Van Buren who was Dutch royalty. It’s a bloodline thing.

        And his real name isn’t Trump, it’s Drumpf. All US presidents are related to each other through King John of England who, in 1213 surrendered to Rome. He was allowed to save face and pretend he still had sovereignty, but Rome owns Britain today because of it. The treaty of 1213 stated that so long as there were heirs to both signatories (the Pope and him), the treaty would stand. It stands today here in the US because we’re still a British colony. Cheers!

    • Holly shit! That hurt! My eyes bleach and ears rings! What the fuck is this!?

      TE TRUTH!?!?

  8. DHS needs to be dissolved. Remember, this was Hussein’s domestic military that was to be funded as well as our real military, to be used as his personal goon squad.

    DHS was manned with commies at all levels and must be eliminated. Give the billions of rounds of ammo that they bought with our money to the real military.

  9. The tentacles of the Satanic Globalist NWO ORGANIZED CRIME CABAL are everywhere. DHS is picking up where the CIA and NATO left off.

  10. The people who did 911 are the same people running DHS. We live in enemy occupied territory. We are fish in a barrel being exterminated. Wake up.

  11. The anti-Christ’s one world government must start somewhere. It is until it isn’t.

  12. The answer is easy. All nations should simply bar travel to the United States and all U.S. travelers should refuse to fly international. But people aren’t that smart or committed.

  13. THAT DHS expansion might be the begiining of the new infrastructure to better faciltate the “terrorist attack’s, drug shipments, money laundering, and human trafficking enterprises” below the radar of the deplorables – who will pay for all of it…
