Obama 923 in 3 1/2 years!

If you don't get the implications you're not paying attention. How many warnings do you need?

923 Executive Orders in 40 Months

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10995 allows the government to seize and control the

-EXECUTIVE ORDER 10998 allows the government to take over all food resources and farms.
