Attorney General Lynch Defends Obama’s Executive Action on Guns, Says They Are Legal | TheBlaze.com:

"WASHINGTON (TheBlaze/AP) — Attorney General Loretta Lynch defended President Barack Obama’s executive actions curbing guns, telling lawmakers Wednesday that the president took lawful steps to stem firearms violence.

Lynch’s support for the modest election-year measures Obama announced two weeks ago was certain to draw criticism from the Republicans who control Congress. GOP presidential candidates and lawmakers have condemned the president’s move as an infringement of the constitutional right to own guns and an overreach of executive branch powers."
