If you believe such abuses did not occur, however, I would happily bet any amount of money to the contrary. It fits precisely within the pattern of behavior of this president.

Establish goal
Instruct lawyers what end result must be
Get legal reasoning from lawyers justifying end result
Take action under cloak of legal authority to accomplish goal
Keep everything secret
Admit it, you're Senator Mayer, aren't you?
