If the Obama administration is willing to throw the Brits, our strongest allies and friend under the bus by deceptive subterfuge, just think how willing he will be to deceive the American people to achieve his objectives.

I can't figure out if this administration is just simply beyond incompetent or willingly ignoring all protocols, established norms, standard procedures and basically acting an separate entity within the US government, playing above and completely disregarding the law

They're just behaving according to their nature.
