When Congress abandons real oversight for fishing expeditions and bogus claims of obstruction with no underlying crime

Washington Post:
Trump isn’t just defying Congress. He’s rejecting the whole idea of oversight.
When you see Democrats in Congress demanding Trump's tax returns and use subpoenas to facilitate a coup attempt against eh President it seems clear they have lost their way and there are good reasons for the President to resist the Democrats' abuse of power.  The demand for his tax returns is without probable cause.  They have no evidence that the tax returns would contain any evidence of wrongdoing by the President.  In fact, they are seeking returns from before he even ran for President.

This is far different from GOP investigations of Obama scandals such as Fast and Furious gun-running to narco-terrorists and Obam's IRS abuses against conservative political opponents.

And BTW, how long is the media going to let Obama and Biden pretend there were no scandals when they were in office.  Those were real scandals and not manufactured ones like the bogus claims of Russian collusion and process crimes used against Trump associates in investigating the hoax cooked up by Hillary Clinton and some of her associates.  You can find a list of some of the Obama-Biden scandals here.

Democrats have had a history of bad faith allegations against Trump from the moment he was elected.  Congress's actions tend to confirm that bad faith.

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
