In other words, its just ANOTHER abuse of power quid pro quo. But since the Senate acquitted him in the Ukraine deal, he's free to abuse the power of the Presidency as often as he likes.
Remember the Checks and Balances theory you learned about in 5th grade civices? The Senate just wiped that slate clean.
Its in NO WAY an abuse of power... it’s an agreement between the states and the Federal Govt to build a convince program for US citizens and trusted travelers using state DMV database info.
Don’t want to supply the info? Fine, you forfeit your participation. No one in the federal govt is restricting your right or access to travel, but you don’t get to use the country club benefits if you’re not going to pay dues.
