ICE Director Sarah Saldana told a subcommittee of the House Budget Committee that a directive from Barack Obama trumps congressionally passed laws. As a law enforcement officer, she has a duty to uphold US immigration law as well as the constitution, which says in no uncertain terms that congress has the sole responsibility to pass laws. Rep Don Young (R) Iowa took exception to her statement and sought to establish that she was actually saying that Obama and not the law decides what he job is

Is Saldana registered as an agent of a foreign government?

Wonderful; I’m sure Democrats will stick by this ideal as soon as a Republican enters the White House...
Oh, right, these things only work if THEY want them to. Silly me.

This is where a contempt of congress is issued, and calls to have her prosecuted for perjury before Congress. Because that is knowingly lying.

“Is there anyone who still does not believe that the Obama Administration is turning America into a third world dictatorship.”
Everyone except the REPUBLICAN caucus. I would assume that at this point in time, Boehner is well on his way to getting drunk and his aides are busily writing talking points for him tomorrow that will completely satisfy conservatives eagerly waiting for a crumb to soothe their worry.

Is there anyone who still does not believe that the Obama Administration is turning America into a third world dictatorship. Yes, like isn't this kind of old news? He has been doing this for a long time.

Ice Director Tells Congress Obama Trumps the Law I believe that President Obama has an obligation to personally contact this individual and share some of what he learned as a constitutional lecturer.
