Obama Declared 13 National Emergencies - 11 Are Still Active

http://bigleaguepolitics.com/obama-declared-13-national-emergencies-11-are-still-active/

There are a lot of national emergencies going on. In fact, there are 31 active national emergencies declared under the National Emergencies Act.

Bill Clinton used this authority 17 times. President Trump has only used it three times so far.

Sorry Democrats, this "national emergency" business is not quite the work of "dictators." ...

Trump shocks GOP with emergency declaration

The surprise announcement Thursday that President Donald Trump will use his emergency powers to try and build his border wall blindsided some Republicans, confused others and sent the Senate GOP into a general state of shock.

...IMHO, this was a mistake, but we shall see. Of course if Obama had declared a homeless emergency or a climate emergency it would have been okey dokey.
