Seeing that Zero has set up military action against US citizens, with authorization to occur on his say-so alone, it appears to me we have (yet another) clear violation of his presidential oath, one which clearly contemplates removal of Constitution due process
at his whim.
There is no way this should not get a 100-0 vote for removal from a Senate that still represents the people.

The problem is that Congress for all intents and purposes is meaningless, since courts and the executive branch are making laws all the time now.

Exactly, but sadly we don’t have a Senate that even a bare majority represent the people

From the article:
Directive No. 3025.18, Defense Support of Civil Authorities, was issued Dec. 29, 2010, and states that U.S. commanders are provided emergency authority under this directive.
Why is this a current issue? Wasn't it addressed in 2010?

There was an emergency, and Congress could not be reassembled in time to address the situation.
When in an emergency, it is entirely right and proper for the executive authority to take emergency action.

It can only make sense if we stop insisting on enumerated powers, separation of powers, and reliance on what we would like to be opposing political parties.
Rome-on-the-Potomac is operated by a Uniparty for the purpose of funneling power and wealth to its members.
An impeachment and trial could upset the gravy train. Not going to happen.
