“10 Minutes Closer to Freedom”


In this episode of Thoughts from Maharrey Head, I talk about an obscure provision in a proposed Trump executive order that could set the stage for World War III.

Hyperbole?

I don’t think so.

There has been a lot of talk about a proposed Trump executive order relating to refugees. Almost all of the debate has centered around refugee policy and whether the U.S. should allow them into the country. But a provision buried in the EO that very few are talking about could actually set the stage for massive military intervention in Syria. Political dynamics being what they are, it could even set the state for World War III.

In this episode of Thoughts from Maharrey Head, I talk about the refugee EO and explain the ramifications. I also give a brief overview of the legitimacy of executive orders in general.
