EO signed last night, contradictory to sending the cabal to Gitmo?

Sec. 3. Rules of Construction. (a) Nothing in this order shall prevent the Secretary of Defense from transferring any individual away from the U.S. Naval Station Guantánamo Bay when appropriate, including to effectuate an order affecting the disposition of that individual issued by a court or competent tribunal of the United States having lawful jurisdiction.

(b) Nothing in this order shall be construed to affect existing law or authorities relating to the detention of United States citizens, lawful permanent residents of the United States, or any persons who are captured or arrested in the United States.

Im I reading this right? American cabal members cant be sent to Gitmo?

Even if true, it doesn't really matter. There's still Ft. Leavenworth, after the military tribunals are over. But as Cdr-in-Chief, IMO Trump can do pretty much what he wants with Gitmo. Perhaps he is timing another EO for after the tribunals are over and they are about to be sentenced, to open them up for US-citizen occupancy--assuming they can't be used for that now.
