Congress, as well as a federal judge, will have to approve the deal.

Obama is going for everything!

Outrageous overreach! Just the start of reparations.

In 1994, Dan Glickman was named secretary of agriculture, replacing Mississippian Mike Espy.

Two years later, a group of black farmers assembled outside the White House gates to protest racism within USDA. The national media covered the assemblage and aired the group’s charges.

Shortly thereafter, following a quick investigation,
Glickman said that the charges were indeed true: the agency he’d looked after for two years was shot through with racism.

No evidence of the found racism was offered. Instead, several things took place. First, Glickman created a Civil Rights Action Team (CRAT). Then, in January 1997, an 11-stop, coast-to-coast jaunt (termed a “listening tour”) was scheduled. According to reports, the tour was well-attended, and the 11-member CRAT did plenty of note-taking.

Cloward-Piven Strategy. Overwhelm the system in hopes conservatives just give up and become complacent. This President is out of control. We're getting awfully close to dictatorship.
