But being pompous and vain does not make him a criminal no matter how irritating it was. But there were enough examples of criminal behavior that we documented dozens of them in the following post:
As Democrats and liberals start going berserk with their empty threats and irrational craving to impeach Trump with little or no evidence of any impeachable offenses, so far at least, we thought it would be a good idea to call out these people, all of whom are hypocrites. When Obama actually committed any impeachable and criminal offenses, they were silent. Now, because they find Trump crude or because he destroyed the desire to have Queen Hillary elected, they now get all law and order-ish.
Which brings us to an online article from 2017 that appeared on the Outline website, “Criminal In Chief” — 78 Times President Obama Broke The Law During Presidency.”" Now, in reading the article, the headline is a little misleading. These are not 78 times that Obama actually broke the law, it includes times that Obama broke laws and treaties but it also include the many, many lies and deceptions that Obama put forth while in office. [Note: there are actually 80 times, not sure where the author got 78 from since there are 80 instances in the article.]
While these lies are probably not impeachable offenses, I include them below just to show the hypocritical current day Democrats and liberals what fakes they are: if they did not complain when Obama actually committed the following crimes and lies, please be quiet with your complaints with Trump:
1) Obama’s Fast and Furious operation provided thousands of military grade weapons to Mexican drug cartels in a hackneyed attempt to track the guns to the actual cartel locations. These weapons ended up killing dozens of Mexican citizens and at least one U.S.Border Patrol agent. This operation violated Federal laws and probably international laws and treaties regarding gun running.
According to the New York Post: “The Department of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives apparently ordered one of its own agents to purchase firearms with taxpayer money, and sell them directly to a Mexican drug cartel. Let that sink in: After months of pretending that ‘Fast and Furious’ was a botched surveillance operation of illegal gun-running spearheaded by the ATF and the US attorney’s office in Phoenix, it turns out that the government itself was selling guns to the bad guys.”
2) Not learning from the Fast and Furious disaster, Obama also authorized a shipment of weapons to the Syrian opposition that probably ended up in the hands of ISIS, the most ruthless terror organization of all time.
3) Obama tried to shut down legally operating gun stores without an legal basis by pressuring banks to illegally refuse to service the banking needs of gun stores via Operation Choke Point.
4) Obama spent tax dollars to re-settle illegal immigrants inside U.S. after he ordered the Border Patrol to stand down and stop protecting the border and enforcing existing immigration laws and procedures.
5) Obama used executive orders to restrict Second Amendment and the legal access to guns by ordinary Americans outside of current laws that Congress had passed.
6) Obama weaponized the IRS to illegally restrict conservative groups from getting proper and prompt tax status decisions form the IRS which curtailed the First Amendment rights and political actions of untold numbers of Americans. Groups with the words “tea party” or “patriot” in their names were targeted for harassment, such as requiring them to provide information about their family members, their social media posts and a list of donors.
According to the DailyCaller: “The Obama appointee implicated in congressional testimony in the IRS targeting scandal met with President Obama in the White House two days before offering his colleagues a new set of advice on how to scrutinize tea party and conservative groups applying for tax-exempt status.”
7) Obama secretly and illegally obtained the phone records of Associated Press journalists, an action certainly dinging the First Amendment: “The Justice Department secretly obtained two months of telephone records of reporters and editors for The Associated Press in what the news cooperative’s top executive called a “massive and unprecedented intrusion” into how news organizations gather the news.”
8) Obama carried out military operations against a sovereign nation, Libya, without Congressional or Constitutional permission.
9) Obama expanded Bush’s un-Constitutional government faith-based programs.
10) Obama renewed the un-Constitutional and freedom sapping Patriot Act in 2011.
11) Obama continued Bush’s un-Constitutional process of indefinite detention of Americans without due process in the fight against terrorism.
12) Obama supported and practiced warrantless wiretapping, a gross violation of the Fourth Amendment.
13) Obama ordered the killing of U.S. citizens without due process of law, basically allowing the government to maintain a hit list of Americans it does not like.
14) Obama ordered a private company to fire 1,000 employees when Boeing tried to move some of its operations to South Carolina into a non-union factory.
15) During the Chrysler bankruptcy proceedings, Obama violated the Fifth Amendment and over 150 years of bankruptcy law by illegally treating secured creditors worse than unsecured creditors: “Upsetting this fixed hierarchy among creditors is just an illegal taking of property from one group of creditors for the benefit of another, which should be struck down on both statutory and constitutional grounds,” according to Richard A. Epstein, a law professor at New York University School of Law.
16) Obama fired an Inspector General, Gerald Walpin, after Walpin accused Sacramento mayor Kevin Johnson, an Obama supporter, of misusing AmeriCorps funding to pay for political activities.
17) Obama lied dozens and dozens of times when he insisted that Americans could keep their current health insurance policy under the Obama Care legislation, a fallacy from day one: “No matter how we reform health care, we will keep this promise to the American people… If you like your health care plan, you’ll be able to keep your health care plan, period. No one will take it away, no matter what.”
18) Obama lied dozens and dozens of time when he insisted that Americans could keep their current doctors under the Obama Care legislation, a fallacy from day one.
19) Obama lied about the cost of Obama Care when he said: “I will not sign a plan that adds one dime to our deficits – either now or in the future. I will not sign it if it adds one dime to the deficit, now or in the future, period. And to prove that I’m serious, there will be a provision in this plan that requires us to come forward with more spending cuts if the savings we promised don’t materialize.”
Numerous sources, including the Congressional Budget Office, found that this was so far from the truth as to be ludicrous.
20) Obama funneled untold billions of dollars to major liberals, Democrats, and campaign donors under the guise of “green energy” but zero return on those taxpayer dollars since most, if not all, of these corny business like Solyndra and others went bankrupt with no societal benefits.
21) Obama had hundreds of meetings with lobbyists, according to the New York Times, even though those meetings were held in non-government facilities in order to sidestep legal disclosure requirements of White House visitors such as….lobbyists.
22) Obama had Federal SWAT agents violently raid a law abiding guitar factory, Gibson Guitar, because it was owned by a Republican donor. Martin Guitar company was never raided or hassled by the Obama administration, likely because that company’s owner was a Democrat donor.
23) Obama bypassed Constitutional requirements by appointing “czars” to operate government functions, avoiding the Congressional approval process of the Constitution.
24) Obama tried to destroy family farms by trying to make it illegal for family farm children from working in various farming activities despite over two hundred years of family kids doing just that without significant problems.
25) Obama gave the U.S. ambassador position to Timothy Boras AFTER Boras donated half a million dollars to Obama’s reelection campaign.
26) Obama gave even more power to the disreputable TSA including the pat-downs of young children.
27) Obama illegally demanded excessive monetary payment for Freedom of Information Act requests which was in direct conflict with the actual law itself.
28) Obama eliminated the pensions of 20,000 Delphi employees in 2009 without due process.
29) Obama was accused of using the same budget tactics that Bush used to finance military operations outside of normal budget and Congressional approval processes.
30) Obama ordered Ford to stop criticizing oBama’s bailouts of General Motors and Chrysler in Ford’s advertising, abusing Ford’s First Amendment rights.
31) Obama asked a Jewish singing group to take down is YouTube video in 2011, a violation of the group’s First Amendment rights.
32) Obama illegally gave Obama Care exemptions and waivers to unions which supported the enactment of the Obama Care legislation as reward: “The now-familiar monthly trickling down of new waivers is, at best, a tacit admission that Obama Care is a failure. So far, seven entire states and 1,372 businesses, unions and other institutions have received waivers from the law. The list includes the administration’s friends and allies and, of course, those who have the best lobbyists. More than 50 percent of the Obamacare waiver beneficiaries are union members, which is striking because union members account for less than 12 percent of the American workforce.”
33) Obama hated that the Supreme Court ruled against a Bush administration desire to be able to install a GPS tracking device on someone’s car without a warrant.
34) Attorney Generals from nine states listed out 21 illegal acts that the Obama administration had undertaken.
35) Obama illegally tried to seize a mom and pop hotel because some of the guests had used illegal drugs, a violation of the Fourth Amendment.
36) Obama illegally made four Congressional recess appointments that were later overturned and deemed un-Constitutional.
37) Obama signed a law in 2013 that provided armed guards for himself and his wife for the rest of their lives while continuing to try and disarm Americans and their Second Amendment rights.
38) Obama gave 20 F-16 fighter jets at taxpayer expense to the country of Egypt when it was under a Muslim Brotherhood dictatorship.
39) Obama’s 2012 campaign organization was fined $375,000 by the Federal Election Commission for violating campaign finance laws.
40) His Obama Care legislation encouraged employers to switch their employees from full time to part time to avoid the onerous costs of the Obama Care legislation: Leaders of the Teamsters, UFCW, and UNITE-HERE penned a 2013 letter to Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi stating that Obamacare will “destroy the foundation of the 40 hour work week that is the backbone of the American middle class… the law creates an incentive for employers to keep employees’ work hours below 30 hours a week. Numerous employers have begun to cut workers’ hours to avoid this obligation.”
41) Obama had a Freedom of Information Act compliance record far worse than any of his predecessors.
42) Obama’s Justice Department argued in favor of placing hidden camera on private property without a search warrant in violation of the Fourth Amendment.
43) Obama accepted illegal campaign contributions from foreign citizens in 2012.
44) Obama lied to the country and the world about the Benghazi terrorist act, falsely claiming the attack was the result of a spontaneous protest against an obscure YouTube video while all along he knew it was a pre-planned hostile, and vicious terrorist attack.
45) Obama’s administration complained to YouTube about an anti-Muslim video, a violation of the First Amendment: “It does make us nervous when the government throws its weight behind any requests for censorship,” Ben Wizner of the ACLU said.
46) Obama falsely claimed that the Fast and Furious disaster actually started under the Bush administration which was a lie and even if true, did not make it right that Obama continued the program on his watch.
47) Obama illegally refused to fire Cabinet member Kathleen Sebelius after she violated campaign finance laws even though Federal law clearly states that she should have been fired.
48) Obama gave special access to himself if someone raised or donated at least $500,000 to a pro-Obama group, access that included attending quarterly meetings with Obama and other meetings at the White House.
49) Obama implemented harmful regulations and restrictions on prescription painkillers even though he had no authority to do so and the House had already voted against such restrictions.
50) Obama illegally missed the deadline for submitting a Federal budget at least four times during his term in office.
51) Obama fined UPS $40 million for not being able to detect when its customers shipped illegal drugs via their service.
52) Obama added 20,000 extra pages to the Obama Care legislation via regulations even though Congress ad no chance to vote on anything in those 20,000 pages.
53) Obama delayed the release and publication of unpopular Obama Care regulations until after his reelection, because, as reported by the New York Times in 2013: “… even fervent supporters of the law admit that things are going worse than expected.… the Obama administration didn’t want to release unpopular rules before the election...A law that was very confusing has become mind-boggling… Americans are just going to be overwhelmed and befuddled. Many are just going to stay away, even if they are eligible for benefits."
54) Obama tied to rig the auctions for radio spectrum space for cell phone providers to give an unfair and illegal edge to Sprint and T-Mobile.
55) Obama put a person in jail for simply making an anti-Muslim video, denying him his First Amendment rights, as reported by Politico: “Nakoula Basseley Nakoula deserves a place in American history. He is the first person in this country jailed for violating Islamic anti-blasphemy laws. You won’t find that anywhere in the charges against him, of course. As a practical matter, though, everyone knows that Nakoula wouldn’t be in jail today if he hadn’t produced a video crudely lampooning the prophet Muhammad.”
56) Obama named Bruce Heyman to be the U.S. ambassador to Canada for raising more than $1 million for Obama’s reelection campaign.
57) Obama asked businesses to disclose their political donations before being allowed to bid on government contracts, violating those businesses’ First Amendment rights.
58) Obama falsely accused a law abiding Fox reporter, James Rosen, of being “an aider and abettor and/or co-conspirator as it related to a criminal investigation, doing so without any proof of such behavior," as reported by the New York Times: “With the decision to label a Fox News television reporter a possible “co-conspirator” in a criminal investigation of a news leak, the Obama administration has moved beyond protecting government secrets to threatening fundamental freedoms of the press to gather news.” The Washington Post also chimed in: “The Rosen affair is as flagrant an assault on civil liberties as anything done by George W. Bush’s administration, and it uses technology to silence critics in a way Richard Nixon could only have dreamed of.”
59) Obama asked Eric Holder to investigate himself, Eric Holder, when it became apparent that Holder had lied under oath relative to the Rosen case.
60) Obama illegally allowed IRS to have additional powers under Obama Care, powers no authorized by Congress, according to the Washington Post: “[Obamacare] allows the Department of Health and Human Services to set up federal health exchanges in the holdout states. But the statute makes no mention of the IRS providing credits and subsidies through federal exchanges. The IRS resolved this conundrum by denying its existence. In a May 2012 regulatory ruling, it asserted its own right to provide credits outside the state exchanges as the reasonable interpretation of an ambiguous law. But the language of the law is not ambiguous. And health scholars Jonathan Adler and Michael Cannon, in an exhaustive recent analysis, find no justification for the IRS’s ruling in the legislative history of Obamacare….”
61) A member of Obama’s Cabinet, Kathleen Sebelius, illegally solicited campaign donations from health insurers to fund Obama Care.
62) Obama illegally proposed military intervention to topple a foreign government, Syria, in 2013.
63) Obama refused to fire or prosecute over 1,000 IRS employees who illegally and improperly used their taxpayer funded credit cards for personal use.
64) Obama had the Secret Service pay a visit to a law abiding citizen, Tom Francois, who had criticized Obama on Twitter, violating that person’s First Amendment rights.
65) Obama had the IRS grant special, illegal favors to his brother’s uncharted and unapproved charity.
66) Obama illegally delayed Obama Care’s employer mandate without Congressional approval.
67) Obama illegally forced 2,200 privately owned auto dealerships to close, causing 120,000 Americans to lose their jobs.
68) Obama failed to punish those in the IRS that allowed 24,000 tax refund checks, totalling more than $46 million, to be mailed to illegal immigrants, all who “lived” at the same address in Atlanta, Georgia.
69) Obama used taxpayer money to pay Federal workers to organize protesters against George Zimmerman in 2012, a private citizen.
70) Obama illegally continued foreign aid to Egypt after it suffered a military coup, an action forbidden by Federal law.
71) Obama lied when he falsely claimed he would end the surveillance of private U.S. citizens, a practice started during the Bush administration.
72) Obama illegally seized the privately owned gun from a law abiding citizen, a violation of the Second Amendment.
73) Obama illegally prevented employees of small businesses from selecting their own health insurance plan during the first year of Obama Care.
74) Obama illegally avoided enforcing the required income verification aspect of people receiving Federal subsidies for Obama Care exchange policies.
75) Obama illegally delayed the caps on out of pocket health care payments without Congressional approval.
76) Obama failed to fire National Intelligence Director James Clapper even though Clapper lied under oath before Congress when he falsely said the NSA was not collecting information on Americans’ communications activities.
77) Obama nominated a telecommunications lobbyist and Obama fundraiser to head up the FCC, Tom Wheeler.
78) Obama tried to violate Americans; rights to a fair trial, as reported by Reuters: “A secretive U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration unit is funneling information from intelligence intercepts, wiretaps, informants and a massive database of telephone records to authorities across the nation to help them launch criminal investigations of Americans. Although these cases rarely involve national security issues, documents reviewed by Reuters show that law enforcement agents have been directed to conceal how such investigations truly begin – not only from defense lawyers but also sometimes from prosecutors and judges. The undated documents show that federal agents are trained to “recreate” the investigative trail to effectively cover up where the information originated, a practice that some experts say violates a defendant’s Constitutional right to a fair trial. If defendants don’t know how an investigation began, they cannot know to ask to review potential sources of exculpatory evidence – information that could reveal entrapment, mistakes or biased witnesses.”
79) Obama threatened Internet Service Providers with contempt of court if they did not install illegal surveillance software in their programs in order facilitate warrantless government surveillance.
80) Obama falsely promised that Obama Care premiums could down up to $2,500 a year for an American family, something that never came close to happening for any American Family.
Not included in the original list of 80 law violations and lies was the recent disclosure that Obama not only illegally and secretly gave the Iranians a $400 million bribe to get their approval of a terrible nuclear arms treaty but the Iranians have now confirmed that Obama illegally gave them an additional $1.3 billion besides the original illegal $400 million cash payment.

There you can access the links that verify each of the accusations of lies and illegal actions made above. So if you are a Democrat and liberal and have this compulsion to want to impeach Trump, please read the above insults to freedom that occurred under Obama and tell me why you were silent while Obama was breaking laws, violating the Constitution, shredding the Bill of Rights and lying day after day after day.
If you cannot tell me while you were silent in the face of overwhelming actions and facts that should have had Obama impeached and removed from office, than please shut up, your hypocrisy is overwhelming and quite childish.
