Trump Can Now Text Every Single Citizen Directly—It Starts This Week and You Cannot Opt Out

 Washington, D.C. — This week, on Oct. 3, every single cellphone in  the United States will receive a text message from president Donald  Trump and there is no way to stop it. While it likely won’t be the case for future alerts, Wednesday’s test  text message will not have anything to do with politics. Instead, it is  a nationwide test of a new system called a “presidential alert” which  was recently created and will be implemented by the Federal Emergency  Management Agency (FEMA). 

The government claims the new FEMA  system will only be used in case of a crisis which affects the entire  nation—like an imminent nuclear attack. As we’ve yet to have a crisis  which has effected every single town in every single state  simultaneously—even on 9/11—the justification behind this measure seems  sparse at best.   

According to FEMA, the test will happen at 2:18 PM EDT and all cell  phones will have a message box popup, accompanied by a tone and a  vibration. They claim that it is not a text and your phone number will  not be shared with anyone. The statement will read: 

“THIS IS A TEST of the National Wireless Emergency Alert System. No action is needed.”

Unlike alerts from local governments across the country, you cannot  opt out of this one. Trump and all future presidents will now have a  direct and one way line of communication with every single American from  here on out. Wireless phone users have the ability to opt out of most alerts sent  under the Integrated Public Alert and Warning System, run by the Federal  Emergency Management Agency. 

While some users can choose not to receive  regional messages and so-called Amber Alerts regarding missing or  endangered children, under federal rules, receipt of the top-level “presidential alerts“ is mandatory, according to a report in Politico. All radio and televisions will also receive a simultaneous warning  which will interrupt regular programming and last for about two minutes. 

While many may think the idea of the president having access to a  one-way push notification to all Americans may be a rather benign act,  others disagree. Just ask those in Hawaii how they felt when they were sent a message  claiming that a nuclear attack was imminent. 

Parents were witnessed  lowering children into sewage drains and fighting to remove manhole  covers. Citizens were seen leaving their cars in traffic and running to  find shelter nearby. It was chaos and madness on a massive scale and it  only went to one state. For this reason and many others, people are speaking out about this system. According to Politico, three New Yorkers are suing in federal court to try to halt Wednesday’s test. 

The activists filed the suit last week in U.S. District  Court in Manhattan, arguing that the system violates their free speech  rights and constitutes an unconstitutional seizure of their electronic  devices.

Those on the left are utterly horrified at the idea of their “Not My  President” forcing them to read his tweets. But, like all spectacular  acts of tyranny, this system was setup bipartisanly. To those who think  this is Trump’s doing, think again. 

This program was forged by the  Barack Obama administration by a Republican and signed into law in 2016 by the president. The Integrated Public Alert and Warning System Modernization Act of  2015 states that the emergency alert system “shall not be used to  transmit a message that does not relate to a natural disaster, act of  terrorism, or other man-made disaster or threat to public safety.” 

While the above description may seem harmless enough, the plaintiffs  think that this law leaves a lot of room for abuse, and they are right. “Without more specific definitions…officials — including President  Trump — are free to define ‘act of terrorism’ and ‘threat to public  safety’ as they see fit, potentially broadcasting arbitrary, biased, irrational and/or content-based messages to hundreds of millions of people,” the complaint claims. 

Indeed, peaceful anti-government protest could one day be deemed a  “threat to national security,” and a push sent. No longer would it take  mainstream media days or weeks to demonize a person or a cause, this  could now happen in minutes with the abuse of this system. 

To get a glimpse of this police state reality one need only imagine a  system like the Amber Alert but that goes out to everyone and tracks  alleged dissidents. Innocent political rivals could be deemed criminals  instantly and they would have no place to hide.   

While this may seem extreme, remember that all government programs,  such as the PATRIOT Act start out being presented as a means to protect  national security interests but end up being used to spy on,  propagandize, and deprive innocent Americans of their liberty. We are  now witnessing this process play out in the very pockets of our pants.
