Obama hasn't held office since 2016.
What do past presidents have to do with Trump signing an executive order giving himself more power?
This is about the limits of executive orders.
This is about the Trump administration saying the constitution is unconstitutional.
What does he have to do with Trump threatening to withold funds that the Supreme Court in Train v. New York, a unanimous U.S. Supreme Court decision held that the President lacks the authority to withhold funds Congress has appropriated?
You are using the same old copy and paste shouting points that are a decade old.
The world and events are happening too fast for you to keep up with if you actually believe Hunter's laptop has any relevance to current events. I actually feel embarassed for you and that observation does not bring me any pleasure.
In order not to put you in that position, I almost don't want to comment on political threads here. That would be the caring thing thing to do, but I'm afraid this matter is more important than trying to save face for you.
I'm not trying to be an asshole or condescending, I'm saying no one who cares about this nation has the time to entertain your out-of-context and out-of-date responses.
You're not slipping, you're not old, you simply aren't aggressively seeking information like you used to.
Catch up or stand aside.
"Short memory". Sigh.
Knowledge, just basic, (or the ability to Google)of constitutional law is the only skill required in this new age.
Sincerely, this is why you aren't understanding what's happening around you, you are being distracted by bread, circuses, shiny things, and Hunter's laptop.
You run everything thru that filter.
"
An exhaustive report released by the Treasury Department's Inspector General in 2017 found that from 2004 to 2013, the IRS used both conservative and liberal keywords to choose targets for further scrutiny."
Please read the Treasury Department’s list of nonprofits audited by the IRS to view that conservative AND liberal ones were selected. That negates your assertion. Sorry.
A federal watchdog investigating the Internal Revenue Service’s targeting of conservative political groups said the agency also scrutinized liberal organizations.

Neil Buchanan writes that Trump's dishonesty is a continuation of a strategy of lying Republicans have been honing for years.

Again, what does this have to do with current events?
This is why you don't see what's coming.
Until you get up to date and can speak knowledgably about the slew of NEW events which have very little historical precedence and therefore cannot be compared to past actions, then I implore you, don't do this to yourself. You're intellectually capable, just being a bit lazy. I get it. I was that way about politics for a long time.
You KNOW I never want you to look silly.
