Øbama's Real Legacy - 8 Years of Putting America Last

by John Smith (Ultra Deplorable)
[comments at CNS News to this story]

This is an unbelievable collection of specifics committed by Øbama against America and Americans.

Keep it handy. It'll come in useful.

Listed below is a large part of Obama's disastrous legacy. Let me know if I forgot anything? I guess this is what he meant by "Hope and Change." Share this if you wish. Let's pray President Trump can undo some of the damage:


Signed over control of Internet domain names from the American-based ICANN to an international board (which includes China and other countries hostile to the USA) starting October 1, 2016.

In late August, 2016, handed over control of future U.S. elections to the Department of Homeland Security saying elections are "critical infrastructure."

Meaning the Nov. 8 presidential election will be controlled by Obama's radical, Jeh Johnson-run DHS.
http://www.washingtontimes.com...

On 1/6/17, Obama officially federalized U.S. elections.

For a little over 8 years, after 9/11/01 until Fort Hood on 11/5/09, there were no successful Islamic terrorist attacks on U.S. soil. All of the following Islamic terrorist attacks occurred on U.S. soil after Obama took office: Fort Hood, Chattanooga, Little Rock, the Boston Marathon, San Bernardino, Orlando; the Sept. 2014 stabbings and decapitation murder in Moore, Oklahoma; the little-known terror attack in Garland, Texas on 5/3/15; the 9/17/16 bombings in New Jersey and NYC; 9/17/16 stabbings at Minnesota mall; the 5 murders in a Macy's north of Seattle on 9/23/16; the 11/28/16 car attack, stabbings at Ohio State University; the 5 murders on 1/6/17 at Fort Lauderdale airport.

Obama said climate change, not terrorism, is the greatest future threat to the world.
http://freebeacon.com/national...

Vetoed the bill allowing the families of 9/11 victims sue the Saudi Arabian government. Obama's veto was overridden by Congress -- the 1st congressional override during his presidency.

Issued an executive order giving the president additional power to declare Martial Law during peacetime.

In August of 2012, said Syria will have "crossed a red line" if they use chemical weapons, and warned of "enormous consequences." In August of 2013, Syrian President al-Assad allegedly DID end up using chemical weapons against his own people (sarin gas was used to kill more than 1,400 civilians). Obama did nothing.

Refusing to call our mortal enemy by its name (won't say "radical Islamic terrorism").

Calling Major Nidal Hassan's Islamic terrorist attack at Fort Hood "workplace violence."

Victims of the 11/5/09 Fort Hood Islamic terrorist attack had to lobby for more than 5 years to receive Purple Hearts and government benefits.

Letting in a record number of "refugees." Despite ISIS vowing to infiltrate, at least 15,479 Syrian refugees have already arrived (99% of which are Muslims), wants to import at least 110,000 more refugees in the fiscal year 2017, 20,075 more from Syria.

42,611 Somali refugees resettled into U.S. during Obama's first 7 years in office. 99% Muslim.

No vetting of refugees for extremist views.

Kept vetting details of Syrian refugees "classified."

Purposely under-reporting the number of illegal aliens arriving in or already inside the U.S.

Refuses to establish safe zones for Syrian refugees along the Syrian border. Would rather bring them here.

Wants to bring in as many Muslim refugees as possible while refusing to help Christian refugees fleeing ISIS. Ask yourself why? Remember when he said he would "fundamentally transform America"?

Bringing those with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood (Arif Alikhan, Mohammed Eliblary, Rashad Hussain, Salam al-Marayati, Imam Mohamed Magid, Eboo Patel) as advisers to the White House, DHS. 72 employees of Obama's DHS on terror-watch list.

His lax (some would say non-existent) immigration enforcement and intentionally handcuffing the U.S. border patrol has caused the number of illegal aliens to skyrocket.

In 2013, under Obama, ICE knowingly released 36,007 convicted criminal aliens, many with serious felony convictions (among them were 426 convicted rapists, 193 convicted murderers).
http://www.judicialwatch.org/b...

Fewer and fewer criminal illegal aliens are being deported each year. One-third of the U.S. prison population is now illegal aliens. It's estimated up to 2 million criminal illegal aliens are now inside the U.S.

Deportations of illegal aliens living inside the U.S. are down 73% since Obama took office in 2009, hitting a 43-year-old low.
http://www.mrctv.org/blog/depo...

Obama's Deferred Action for Parents of Americans (DAPA), his executive order on illegal immigration (an attempt to protect up to 5 million illegals from deportation and grant them temporary work authorization) that was struck down as unconstitutional by the courts.

The 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program. Obama negligently encouraged children to travel alone to the U.S. knowing once here they disappear and later bring their relatives. In 10/16 alone, 6,051 unaccompanied alien children were released into American communities.

52,147 illegal alien children released by DHS into U.S. in fiscal year 2016.

The Obama administration will fly [Central American] children at taxpayer expense into the U.S. as refugees, and the ones who don’t qualify as refugees are going to be admitted under parole. http://mobile.wnd.com/2015/04/...

1,811 illegal aliens from terrorist nations scheduled to be deported "mistakenly" given U.S. citizenship.

Rushing to swear in as many new citizens as possible in 2016 to help Hillary Clinton get elected.

Rushing to import as many illegals as possible prior to President Donald J. Trump taking office.

Secretly delaying the deportation hearings of at least 56,000 illegals from Central America.

Agencies working for Obama have allowed almost 1 million illegal immigrants to remain in the U.S., even though they have been approved by judges for deportation. That number includes 182,761 illegal aliens who have been convicted of crimes inside the U.S.

Record number of illegal aliens illegally voting in U.S. elections. More Democrat voter fraud uncovered.

In October, 2016, in what's an obvious vendetta, Obama's DOJ filed federal contempt of court charges against Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio for ignoring a judge's order. The judge ordered Arpaio to stop enforcing federal immigration laws already on the books. Arpaio refused.

During his final months in office, Obama's DHS shut down Operation Phalanx, an aerial surveillance program where U.S. helicopters helped spot drug smuggling and illegal crossings at the southern border.

On 11/21/16, it was reported that several thousand green cards issued over the past few years are now missing.

More diseases now spreading in the U.S. including the Zika virus, which came from Central America, and the resurgence of old diseases like Tuberculosis, Leprosy, Malaria, Measles and Mumps.

Allowed Ebola patients from West Africa to enter the U.S. Two Dallas nurses contracted the disease, but recovered.

Just prior to the 2016 presidential election, Obama encouraged illegal aliens to vote during an interview with Gina Rodriguez. Obama said there will be "no repercussions" for illegals who vote.

At least 3 million illegal aliens reportedly voted in the 2016 presidential election.

His "recess appointments" that were struck down as "illegal" by the Supreme Court.

His international "apology tour" back in '09. Bowing to the Saudi king.

Continually criticizing the U.S. while traveling on foreign soil.

The swap of 5 dangerous Gitmo prisoners for suspected traitor Bowe Bergdahl.
When Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi (suffering from PTSD) was arrested in Mexico after accidentally crossing the border with three weapons in his car, Obama let him languish in a Mexican prison (where Tahmooressi was tortured) for 214 days.

Sending lethal Gitmo prisoners back home, many of whom returned to the Islamic terrorism, fighting Americans on the battlefield.

Repeatedly trying to close Gitmo.

Closed all overseas CIA interrogation centers.

Outlawed CIA enhanced interrogations.

Released from Gitmo one of the Islamic terrorists responsible for the Oct. 2000 USS Cole attack.

Publicly pretended to be against the early "compassionate release" of Lockerbie bomber Abdel Baset al-Megrahi from a Scottish prison, but it was later revealed Obama privately supported the early release of the Libyan terrorist/mass-murderer.

Tying the hands of our troops overseas with insane rules of engagement.

Tying the hands of the FBI and other investigative agencies with insane political correctness (i.e.) forbidding the mention of "radical Islamic terrorism."

No more undercover surveillance of Islamic mosques.

Tying the hands of all branches and ranks of the U.S. military with insane political correctness (i.e.) forbidding any mention of radical Islamism.

Letting 1,715 convicted criminals out of prison early, that's more commutations than the 11 previous U.S. presidents combined. That's all the other presidents from Harry S. Truman thru George W. Bush. Obama also granted a total of 212 pardons as of 1/17/17.

Obama's final commutations included treasonous U.S. Army transvestite Bradley turned Chelsea Manning, and Oscar Lopez Rivera, an FALN terrorist and sworn-enemy of the U.S. who planted more than 130 bombs in American cities, resulting in the murders of four people and the permanent blinding and maiming of an NYPD officer.

Letting radical uber-left lawyer and convicted Islamic-terrorist conspirator Lynne Stewart out of prison early on 12/31/13 -- an early "compassionate release" because she has terminal breast cancer. She's still very much alive to this day.
Pulling out of Iraq too early against the advice of military leaders (led to further destabilization of the Middle East and the formation of ISIS).

When Hillary Clinton was Obama's Secretary of State, 20% of U.S. uranium was transferred to Russia's control.

With Hillary Clinton as Obama's Secretary of State, $6 billion went mysterious missing from the state department with no investigation.

Canceled a deal the U.S. had with Poland and the Czech Republic to build a missile defense base in Poland to protect against any possible future missile attacks from Iran.

Russia annexed Crimea, and Russian troops invaded Ukraine.

The legalization of gay marriage.

Gays openly serving in the military.

Transgenders getting their choice of bathrooms.

Transgenders in the military.

The military will now pay for a service person to transition gender and the troops now have to be counseled on how to treat transgendered service people.

Overall weakening of the U.S. military. Slashing some areas of the military to pre-World War II levels. Using the military for left-wing "social engineering." Destroying morale in the U.S. military.

Purging the U.S. military by firing or forcing out many of the best, most experienced high-ranking military officers who dared criticize the Obama agenda.

Joe Biden stupidly and recklessly outing SEAL Team 6 as the squad that killed bin Laden. Three months later 22 members of SEAL Team 6 were killed in an attack by the Taliban in Afghanistan.

Allowed three Navy SEALS, who always claimed innocence, to be court-martialed because one SEAL (Matthew McCabe) allegedly punched the captured Islamic terrorist "The Butcher of Fallujah" in the stomach and "The Butcher of Fallujah" received a possibly self-inflicted bloody lip while in custody.
http://nypost.com/2013/12/29/h...

Weakened NASA, ended the Space Shuttle program and shut down America's manned space program.

Made "Muslim Outreach" his top priority for NASA.

Due to his weak, blame-America-first leadership, the U.S. is now less respected by both allies and enemies.

Obama had a goal to "reset" relations with Russia. Now tensions with Russia are at their highest since the Cold War.

One of his first acts as president in '09 was to send a bust of Winston Churchill -- a gift to the White House from England in 2001 -- back to England.

When Obama first met Queen Elizabeth on '09, he gave her an iPod as a gift, an iPod containing his old speeches.

Did not attend the funerals of Margaret Thatcher, Nancy Reagan and Justice Scalia.

Failed to back the democratic Green Movement in Iran back in '09.

Condemned the anti-Islamist coup attempt in Turkey in the summer of '16.

Continually speaking out against the police before knowing all the facts (started back in '09 with "the beer summit").

More police officers being murdered on the job nationwide.

Banned the use of some military-style equipment the police can use to protect themselves in riots and other dangerous situations.

Skipped all the festivities of National Police Week in D.C. in 2011, but instead hosted controversial rapper, Common, who wrote something praising convicted cop killer and fugitive Assata Shakur.

Obama's DOJ started investigations into 25 different police departments nationwide, citing wrongdoing in 21 as of January, 2017.

Purposely disrespecting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu when Netanyahu first visited Washington in 2010.

Using U.S. taxpayer money to campaign against Netanyahu in an Israeli election.
It's speculated Obama always calls ISIS "ISIL" because the "L" stands for "The Levant," a larger region than just Iraq and Syria that includes Israel.

The Iran Deal, which gives $150 billion to the Iranians and puts Iran on track to obtain nuclear weapons.

Lifted several long-standing, effective sanctions against Iran.

Lying about the $400 million ransom payment to Iran, which was later reported to really be $1.7 BILLION in CASH in foreign currency.

Secretly lifting the sanctions on two Iranian banks, sanctions that weren't supposed to expire for at least 7 more years.

In January, 2016, just hours before Obama's final State of the Union address, touting his Iran Deal, two U.S. Navy boats mistakenly drifted into Iranian waters. Ten U.S. sailors were captured, detained and publicly humiliated by Iran. Obama never mentioned the incident in his State of the Union address. The sailors were released after being held hostage for 15 hours. The Obama administration thanked Iran.

Not bombing ISIS-controlled oil fields in Iraq and Syria for fear of doing "environmental damage and damaging infrastructure." Means global warming/climate change (backed by still-debatable science) takes precedence over trying to totally wipe out a mortal enemy hellbent on destroying western civilization.

At a National Prayer Breakfast in Feb. 2015, when talking about ISIS and Islam reminded us to remember old "terrible deeds committed in the name of Christ," like the Crusades, the Inquisition, American slavery and Jim Crow Laws.

Numerous examples of Obama's hostility toward people of traditional Biblical faith, while continually praising and defending Islam.

http://www.breitbart.com/big-g...

Benghazi and the subsequent Benghazi cover up.

Providing no additional security for American ambassador to Libya, Chris Stevens, when it was requested 600 times prior to the tragic events of 9/11/12 in Benghazi.

It has never been explained what Obama was actually doing for several critical hours while the events in Benghazi unfolded. Obama's then-Defense Secretary Leon Panetta testified that Obama was informed the Benghazi attack had started, but the Commander-in-Chief never bothered to check back in the rest of the night.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/new...

Obama skipped his daily intelligence briefing the day after the Benghazi terrorist attack. Went to a campaign fundraiser in Las Vegas instead.

Obama and then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton falsely blamed the Benghazi attack on an anti-Islamic video posted on YouTube.

Just over a month before the 2016 presidential election, Obama's DOJ dismissed charges against arms dealer Marc Turi. A trial for Turi could have embarrassed Obama and Hillary Clinton by calling attention to the administration's supplying weapons to Libyan rebels that fell into the hands of Islamic extremist militants.

The big lie known as The Arab Spring.

Supported the Muslim Brotherhood overthrow of the Mubarak government in Egypt.

Overthrowing Qaddafi in Libya. Now Libya is a haven for ISIS and Islamic extremism.

Calling ISIS "a JV team."

In November 2015, said publicly that ISIS was "contained." The very next day ISIS launched the terrorist attacks in Paris, France; 130 people were murdered, many more seriously injured.

Going to a baseball game and dancing in Cuba while Belgium was under Islamic terror attack.

Reopening relations with Castro's Communist Cuba, and reopening the U.S. embassy in Havana, Cuba for the first time since 1961.

Returning to golf just minutes after talking to the nation about the beheading of American journalist James Foley.

Golfing on vacation on Martha's Vineyard while Milwaukee burned and Louisiana flooded.

Having Al "Tawana Brawley" Sharpton as an advisor on race relations and having Sharpton as a frequent honored guest at the White House.

Legitimizing the anti-American, anti-Israel hate group Black Lives Matter by inviting them to the White House.

Never even once got on TV to urge for calm after 9/16 Charlotte riots, 11/16 post-election riots and previous riots.

His top cop Loretta Lynch meeting with Bill Clinton at a Phoenix airport while Hillary Clinton was still under FBI investigation.

Continually using radical Islamic terrorist attacks as an excuse to push his gun-control agenda, but never mentioning all the inner-city violence plaguing his hometown of Chicago, a city that already has some of the strictest gun-control laws in America.

Despite 764 homicides in Chicago during 2016, in Jan. 2017 Obama's DOJ condemned the Chicago police department for "excessive force."

Obama's pro gun-control policies inadvertently led to a record number of gun sales.

Operation Fast and Furious Scandal (former AG Eric Holder arming criminals in Mexico). At least 200 dead as a result of the botched federal sting operation, including U.S. Border Patrol agent Brian Terry.

Former AG Eric Holder's FBI illegally spying on Fox News reporter James Rosen and wire-tapping AP reporters.

Holder was held in contempt of Congress for failing to provide key documents pertaining to Fast & Furious, and wasn't held accountable.

On Election Day (11/4/08) two members of the hate group the New Black Panthers were charged with intimidating voters outside a Philadelphia polling place. In May, 2009, Obama's DOJ under Eric Holder dropped all charges.

The ACORN scandal.

Allowing the national debt sour to $20 trillion.

Despite adding over $9.3 TRILLION and counting to the national debt since taking office in Jan. 2009, America's infrastructure continues to crumble.
http://www.cnsnews.com/news/ar...

Lois Lerner and her IRS intentionally targeting conservative groups and Lerner's missing e-mails (sound familiar). No Obama administration official has yet to be punished for this egregious abuse of power.

The VA scandal (hiding the long amounts of time it took veterans to see a doctor at a VA hospital). Many vets died in the process.

The assault on the coal industry due to his undying belief in green energies backed by the debatable science of global warming/climate change.

Vetoed the Keystone XL Pipeline.

An incredibly slow response to the BP oil spill -- just imagine if this happened while Bush was still president.

Ignored a judge's order to stop a six-month offshore drilling moratorium in the months following the BP oil spill.

Used the BP oil spill to halt offshore drilling, which led to a loss of jobs and companies moving to other countries.

While halting and restricting U.S. offshore oil drilling, gave Brazil billions to do its own offshore drilling, saying the U.S. would be their best customer.

A record number (and growing number) of Americans out of the U.S. workforce (95,102,000 million as of 1/6/17) who are not included on "official" unemployment numbers. Up 18% since Obama took office.

A loss of 300,000 American manufacturing jobs.

A record number of people forced to work multiple jobs.

More part-time jobs due in large part to ObamaCare.

8 million more Americans living below the poverty line under Obama.

The total number of Americans on food stamps increased by 10.7 million during the Obama years.

A 58% increase of black people on food stamps under Obama.

The worst economic recovery since the Great Depression.

The Labor Participation Rate is at its lowest since 1978 (when Jimmy Carter was President).

The only U.S. president not to have a single year of at least 3.0 GDP growth during his presidency. Recent GDP growth has been barely above 1.0.

Under Obama, the U.S. credit rating was downgraded for the first time in history (twice).

In 2016, the home ownership rate for Americans dropped to its lowest percentage since 1965.

Higher (and still rising) food and energy prices.

Overall, American wages have either stagnated or declined in the last 8 years. Wages not keeping up with the rate of inflation.

20,642 new EPA regulations under Obama at a cost of $100 billion to U.S. economy.

More Federal rules and regulations than ever at a cost of over $1 TRILLION.
Obama's legal battle with the Little Sisters of the Poor because the order of Catholic nuns refuse to provide contraceptive coverage under Obamacare.
Closed the U.S. embassy in Vatican City.

His major "achievement" ObamaCare is running into major problems. Premiums and deductibles have skyrocketed. Many people say "if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor" and "if you like your healthcare plan, you can keep your healthcare plan" were lies. The Affordable Care Act no longer affordable for many. Fewer insurers participating.

The glitch-ridden ObamaCare website cost taxpayers $2.1 billion.

Convicted felon and Democrat dirty-tricks operative Robert Creamer visited the White House 342 times, 47 of those visits were with Obama. Creamer was caught paying agitators to provoke violence at Trump rallies.

When Obama attended the funeral of Shimon Peres, a White House press release refused to print that Jerusalem is in Israel.

Obama attended the grand opening of America's largest mosque in Maryland with Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan. Conversely, when Obama gave a speech at Georgetown University, he made them place a cover over a monogram symbolizing the name Jesus Christ.

Initiating a new powerful federal police force: " “President’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing Report," May 2015.. urges the federal government to federalize police training and practices, via the use of federal lawsuits, grants and threats to cut federal aid. So far... more than 30 police jurisdictions [have been forced] to adopt federal rules in a slow-motion creation of a national police system, similar to the slow-motion creation of a federal-run health-sector via ObamaCare." -- http://www.breitbart.com/2016-...

A nationwide rise in the murder rate from 2014 forward -- the highest spike in homicides since 1971.

The Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing Rule or the Obama administration's drive to put Section 8 housing in suburban neighborhoods and other neighborhoods deemed "not diverse enough."

Federalized school standards - Common Core.

Despite spending billions of federal dollars into overhauling America's worst schools, test scores, graduation rates and college enrollment remained stagnant.
https://www.washingtonpost.com...

Giving massive stimulus sums to cronies like Solyndra and Democratic teachers unions. Little to no stimulus accounting. Remember the promise of "shovel-ready jobs"?
 
Untold hundreds of billions in taxpayer money wasted on failed "green-energy" projects.

The bankruptcy of solar-energy company Solyndra costing taxpayers $535 million.

Obama's EPA polluted the Colorado river in the summer of 2011.
http://www.breitbart.com/big-g...

His Cash for Clunkers program ended up with total costs outweighing benefits by $1.4 billion.

GM government takeover swindled small stockholders out of any value of holdings.

During the Chrysler bankruptcy, forced Chrysler car dealerships out of business that contributed to Republicans and other political opponents.

The Pigford Scandal
http://www.investors.com/polit...

Obama's scandal-ridden GSA (General Services Administration) wasted taxpayer funds on lavish parties and excessive bonuses. And when conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch tried to investigate, the GSA wrongly punished Judicial Watch, stripping them of "media" status and overcharging them for open-records requests.
http://www.washingtontimes.com...
While running in 2008, Obama promised not to renew the Patriot Act. But he DID renew the Patriot Act after being elected, and continued it with the Freedom Act.
Over $85 million tax dollars on personal vacations. Treats Air Force One like a family station wagon. His 2013 trip to Florida to play golf with Tiger Woods alone cost taxpayers $3.6 million.

August 10 2016- Obama too busy golfing to approve rescuing hostages in Afghanistan. He decided the next day but by then they had been moved.
https://aminewswire.com/storie...

Birth certificate leaves more questions than answers: inexcusably belated, is a "certificate of live birth," and proven photoshopped. The person who oversaw its production was somehow the only one killed in a plane accident.

Obama's college transcripts have never been released. Other Obama documents never released include his baptism records, financial aid and school records, Columbia senior thesis, record with the Illinois State Bar Association, files from his terms as an Illinois state senator, his law client list, medical records, passport records, etc.

Obama's Social Security Number was issued by Connecticut, a state where he never lived.

Obama certainly knew Hillary Clinton used a private email server. President, DOJ and FBI also certainly colluded to give her a pass. Obama corresponded with Clinton on her private e-mail server using a pseudonym.

Shady friends and mentors like Reverend Wright, Bill Ayers, Frank Marshall Davis, Saul Alinsky, Tony Rezko, et al.

Countless radical, Communist, revolutionary advisors/czars like Valerie Jarrett, Van Jones, Kevin Jennings, Mark Lloyd, Carol Browner, Ron Bloom, etc, etc.

B.H.O. won't wear the US flag pin after 9/11: "I decided I won't wear that pin on my chest. Instead, I'm going to try to tell the American people what I believe will make this country great, and hopefully that will be a testament to my patriotism."

During the partial government shutdown in 2013, prevented elderly World War II veterans from visiting the WWII memorial on the National Mall in D.C. built in their honor. However, during the same government shutdown Obama made an exception and allowed a pro-immigration rally and concert to be held on the National Mall.

ObamaPhones or free government cell phones and free minutes to certain low-income constituents on the tax-payers dime.

Obama denied ever knowing his Kenyan uncle who lived in the U.S. illegally for 43 years. But on 12-5-13 admitted that he DID know him and stayed with the uncle for three weeks while in college.

Obama's DOJ used fines on major banks to fund left-wing groups.

9,700 California National Guard soldiers have been forced to repay their enlistment bonuses a decade after going to war.

Allowing Michelle Obama to ruin kids' school lunches nationwide by forcing "healthier choices" (aka "gross-looking glop") most students hated.

Stopped the use of pork products served to inmates in federal prisons, a move praised by Muslims.

Obama's DOJ fined the Denver sheriff's department for not hiring non-U.S. citizens.

Gave-in to the demands of protesters and stopped work to complete the almost finished North Dakota oil pipeline.

Obama's Department of Health and Human Services took $167 million in taxpayer funds originally intended for American citizens and redirected it to pay for the travel and lodging of illegal-alien children.

At a press conference on 12/16/16 called the Electoral College "a vestige" (or remnant from an earlier era) that disadvantages Democrats.

The Obama administration fired a top scientist, Noelle Metting, and intimidated members of the Department of Energy who didn't go along with the administration's climate change agenda.

With a month left in office, Obama issued an order placing a "permanent" ban on any future oil and gas leasing in energy-rich areas of the Arctic and the Atlantic Ocean.

Ended the National Security Entry-Exit Registration System (NSEERS), a post-9/11/01 requirement for immigrant men from predominantly Muslim countries to register with the federal government.

The Obama administration has deleted records on 80,000 Muslims, including immigrants from Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan who constituted a possible threat to American citizens.

On 12/23/16, betrayed ally Israel by having the U.S. abstain from vetoing an anti-Israel U.N. resolution (condemning Israeli settlements in the West Bank and east Jerusalem as illegal), which allowed the resolution to pass.

On 12/23/16, quietly signed into law the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). But buried deep inside the NDAA is the Countering Foreign Propaganda and Disinformation Act of 2016 (aka The Countering Information Warfare Act of 2016), which gives the U.S. government more authority to crackdown on anything it labels "fake news."

Democrats lost a total of 1,042 seats at the state and federal levels during the Obama years.

Designated 553 million acres of American land for "conservation" (property of the federal government). That's land amounting to 3 times the size of Texas, the most for any U.S. president since four terms of FDR.

Designated more sites national monuments than any president in U.S. history.
http://www.breitbart.com/big-g...

Less than a month before the 2016 presidential election, Obama publicly mocked claims that U.S. elections could be rigged. But following Hillary Clinton's loss, Obama placed sanctions against the Russians for alleged computer hacking that allegedly interfered with the 2016 presidential campaign. There's little contention, however, that the hacking, whomever the culprit, exposed the truth about the DNC.

During the 2012 presidential campaign, Obama mocked opponent Mitt Romney for saying Russia posed a threat to the U.S.

Despite several U.S. government agencies being hacked during his presidency, Obama wasn't too concerned about cyber-security until after Hillary Clinton lost the election.

From 10/1/16 to 12/29/16 alone, 25,671 refugees were resettled in the U.S. That's 11,880 more than during the same period the previous year. And, from 10/1/16 to 12/29/16, the highest percentage of refugees were resettled in red states (Nebraska, North Dakota, Kentucky, Arizona, Idaho).

During his final weeks in office, Obama unleashed an avalanche of regulations and a record amount of bureaucratic red tape (costing billions) in a bitter attempt to tie the hands of the in-coming administration.

On 1/4/16, Obama had his own Defense Secretary, Ash Carter, publicly award him with the Department of Defense Medal for Distinguished Public Service.

Even though Obama promised to have "the most transparent administration in history," he chose to keep many of his presidential records sealed for 12 years after his term ends.

Obama recalled all U.S. aircraft carriers to port at the end of 2016, beginning of 2017. This means no American aircraft carriers stationed overseas for the first time since World War II.

Obama went against his own open-borders philosophy and appeased the government of Communist Cuba by ending the "wet foot, dry foot" policy, which gave near-automatic U.S. residency to Cuban exiles who set foot on U.S. soil. A large percentage of Cubans vote Republican.
