They did what they wanted, whether the law was on their side or not

So the solution is to put the law on their side? To set up the federal agencies to enforce their despotic rule? What sort of logic is that?

No more Clintons? Can you guarantee that? Our Constitution was wisely constructed based on the reality that there is no way to stop corrupt people from getting into office. Shredding the checks and balances established by that Constitution is nothing but blind acceptance that "Comrade Napoleon is always right".

This does not "shred the checks and balances." You, too, are buying into the bad reporting by the Times. Congress gave President Jefferson the same powers to deal with the Barbary Pirates, and then took them away when that war was won.

Do your homework. Read the histories. All this has been posted on FR before. The Constitution is being obeyed, not destroyed.
