I suspect they are using the Dodd-Frank bank regulation law. That gives an unelected stooge appointed by Zero all kinds of power to harass and make demands free of any constraints of Congress. Congress can’t even cut funding because the law allows this outrageously unconstitutional agency to fund itself as needed! Another law passed without any Republicans voting for it I might add.

Thank you for the reply. None of the memoranda mentioned or quoted Dodd-Frank, but then these lawyers are busy transacting Obama's business, not defending it in court.

It didn't occur to me to think of it, without a reference.
