URGENT: White House Confirms Obama Planning Huge New Executive Order
Conservative Tribune in Defense of Western Civilization ^ | March 14, 2015 | Staff

Posted on 03/14/2015 12:03:25 PM PDT by lbryce

Here we go again. White House press secretary Josh Earnest has officially confirmed that President Barack Obama plans to implement yet another executive order. This one is slated to send tax rates skyrocketing through the roof!

The hoopla started last Friday, when Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders submitted a letter to the White House that asked the president to nullify six currently active corporate tax breaks. Closing these tax breaks would raise $100 billion in a decade, but also cost us innumerable jobs.

When questioned about this letter by Ed Henry, senior White House correspondent with Fox News, Earnest first tried to dodge the question by saying that “the president’s ability to use executive authority to move the country in the right direction” is always a possibility.

This statement signifies that the White House views a potential tax increase in a positive light. Ed Henry rebutted it by bluntly asking, “Would the president raise taxes by executive action?”

at does stop them until they get it lifted (if they do).

Johnny we sure don't need to be fighting but if you believe they care one whit about that injunction you are in denial, it will not even slow them down.

Only if it will significantly cripple the nation. Otherwise it would interfere with his golf schedule.

You sure haven't been following the news, then, because the injunction has put a stop to some of the stuff the executive was going to do.

Providing false information regarding EOs doesn't do anyone any favors. Good decisions can only be made with accurate information, regardless of how dangerous you see the situation.

Be honest, at the very least.

I am aware he did not sign an EO dealing with the immigration fraud he is actively pursuing. He just orders it done and calls it executive action or some other clap trap.

DOJ Invokes Separation-of-Powers As It Seeks to Unblock Obama's Executive Amnesty

I know people are saying that he signed an EO because he said he would but then just issued orders or whatever, that accomplish the same thing. He could just issue verbal orders because his administration is full of sycophants that worship at the socialist alter. I linked to the Arizona Story in my last post I hope you read it.
