Re: Did Trump turn off your editor's internet?
Much as I loathe Trump, I'm afraid that it's well known Obama and his administration expanded Presidential powers to include extrajudicial killing of US citizens, most famously via the (originally secret, leaked) DoJ memo "Lawfulness of a Lethal Operation Directed Against a U.S. Citizen Who Is a Senior Operational Leader of Al-Qa'ida or An Associated Force". This has been widely discussed; there's a good treatment in this Foreign Policy article from a couple weeks ago.
For many on the US Left, this was one of the more disappointing aspects of the Obama presidency, but not especially surprising. Obama continued a series of presidents who showed little concern for civil rights.
