He has been among the most vocal NDAA activists and will
be appearing on tonights Bob
Tuskin Radio Show to discuss how him and his organization have been
fighting back against the NDAA.
Recently Dan recently recalled in an article what inspired
him to get involved in this struggle against the NDAA:
On December 31st, 2011, in the dead of night, President
Obama signed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) into law. On
that day, the Bill of Rights was shattered in the interest of the “War on
Terror.” He also wrote a signing statement saying that “my administration will not
detain American citizens” and was very hesitant to sign the bill into law.
Then, the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals placed Section 1021
of the NDAA back into effect.
The NDAA is typically a
mundane bill that appropriates funding for the military for the current year.
However, c allows anyone including American citizens to be detained
indefinitely by the military…no trial, no charges, no day in court.
When the NDAA was signed into law I, along with many
others, took notice and took action. Tangerine Bolen, founder of Revolution
Truth, journalist Chris Hedges, Birgitta Jónsdóttir, Professor Noam Chomsky,
Daniel Ellsberg, Kai Wargalla and Alexa O’Brien filed a lawsuit
against the NDAA within 30 days of its signing. They would become known as
the “Freedom 7,” and were immediately launched into the spotlight.
Learn more about Dan Johnson, his activism, and recent
efforts to roll back the NDAA on tonight’s Bob
Tuskin Radio Show.
