Obama has called for a domestic "Civilian National Security Force" to be "just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded" as the United States military. ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tt2yGzHfy7s Video])<ref>https://www.americanthinker.com/2008/07/obamas_civilian_national_secur.html</ref>  By contrast, the [[U.S. Army]] alone has nearly 500,000 troops, not counting reserves or [[National Guard]]. In 2007, the [[Pentagon|U.S. Defense]] budget was $439 billion.<ref>''[http://www.wnd.com/index.php?pageId=69601 Obama's 'civilian national security force']'', James Farah, [[WorldNetDaily.com]], July 15, 2008.</ref>

Rep. Bob Filner, a [[Democrat]] from [[California]] introduced H.R. 675, a [[backdoor spending]] bill that would amend title 10 of the United States Code and extend to civilian employees of the Department of Defense the authority to execute warrants, make arrests, and carry firearms. The bill would amend the U.S. code with the following: “Sec. 1585b. Law enforcement officers of the Department of Defense: authority to execute warrants, make arrests, and carry firearms… for any offense against the United States.” The bill would define a “law enforcement officer of the Department of Defense” as “a civilian employee of the Department of Defense,” including federal police officers, detectives, criminal investigators, special agents, and game law enforcement officers classified by the Office of Personnel Management Occupational Series 0083. The United States Office of Personnel Management is described as an “independent agency” of the U.S. government that manages the civil service of the federal government.

The [[Department of Defense]] has issued Defense Directive 1404.10 ([http://www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/corres/pdf/140410p.pdf read  PDF]) that establishes a “DoD Civilian Expeditionary Workforce.”  The Obama administration describes the Civilian Expeditionary Workforce as follows:

{{QuoteBox|Members of the DoD Civilian Expeditionary Workforce shall be organized, trained, cleared, equipped, and ready to deploy in support of combat operations by the military; contingencies; emergency operations; humanitarian missions; disaster relief; restoration of order; drug interdiction; and stability operations of the Department of Defense in accordance with DoDD 3000.05.}}

Both H.R. 675 and the DoD Civilian Expeditionary Workforce directive will establish civilian “soft power” under the direction of the Pentagon. Alex Jones' [[Infowars]].com site states, "Obama is now actively working to create a paramilitary 'civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded' as the military. In order to skirt Posse Comitatus, Obama’s paramilitary [[brownshirts]] will be organized and run out of the Office of Personnel Management with orders coming from the Pentagon."<ref>[http://www.infowars.com/hr-675-building-obamas-civilian-national-security-force/ H.R. 675: Building Obama’s Civilian National Security Force], Kurt Nimmo, [[Infowars]], June 23, 2009.</ref>

By act of Congress and the signature of President Obama, the eighth anniversary of the [[September 11, 2001 terror attacks]] marked the first officially designated Patriot Day, a National Day of Service. The concept was championed by MyGoodDeed, an organization founded by family and friends of people killed in the attacks. The group's mission statement calls for honoring "the victims of 9/11 and those who rose to service in response to the attacks by encouraging" good deeds and various volunteer activities. A ''[[New York Post]]'' editorial alerted to the danger how

The [[Obama administration]] supports creating clean energy jobs in cities through a campaign called '''Green the Block''', started by the groups Green For All and the Hip Hop Caucus. A video and statement are posted on the White House blog. Environmental Czar [[Van Jones]], founder of Green for All, said 9/11 commemoration would be an opportunity to "connect, to find other people in your peer group who are also passionate about repowering America but also greening up America and cleaning up America." In 2004 Jones on behalf of his organization, the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, signed on to the [[conspiratorial]] 911 Truth organization <ref>[http://www.911truth.org/article.php?story=20041026093059633 Respected Leaders and Families Launch 9/11 Truth Statement Demanding Deeper Investigation into the Events of 9/11]</ref> alleging a U.S. role in planning and executing the attacks.<ref>[http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/09/04/radicalization-obamas-green-czar/ The Radicalization of Obama's 'Green Czar'], [[FoxNews]], September 04, 2009.</ref>

One week prior to the first Patriot Day and Green the Block action, President Obama's aides acknowledge the White House helped the [[U.S. Education Department]] craft a proposal for prekindergarten to sixth-grade students to write letters about "what they can do to help the president," and for students immediately after listening to a speech by the president to engage in a  discussion about what "the president wants us to do." A curriculum was distributed nationwide by the Department of Education prior to Obama's presentation to students.<ref>[https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2009/sep/02/wh-withdraws-call-students-help-obama/print/ White House withdraws call for students to 'help' Obama], Matthew Mosk, ''[[The Washington Times]]'', September 3, 2009.</ref> Part of the exercise was to include teachers putting up “quotations” from Obama on the walls, and having the children making a “pledge” to do what they can to “serve” President Obama.<ref>http://www.newmediajournal.us/staff/porter/2009/09102009.htm</ref>
