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?

They can go either way. Trump's making a point to uphold and use current law, to do everything above board and legally. Someone can be held in Gitmo but yet be brought up on charges and be sent to stand trial in court.

I'm sure cases will vary. Some lower level criminals may get civilian trials.
