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. ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tt2yGzHfy7s Video])<ref>http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/07/obamas_civilian_national_secur.html</ref>
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. ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tt2yGzHfy7s Video])<ref>http://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 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 United States 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>
Some critics have expressed concern over President Obama's intentions. <ref>[http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D94CDDM80&show_article=1 Georgia congressman warns of Obama dictatorship], Bob Evans, Briebart, Nov 10 2008.</ref>
