7. Dept. of Education's "Shame List" of Faith-Based Colleges 

In April of last year, Obama's Education Department released a list of Christian colleges and universities that applied for an exemption to Title IX.

Supporters called it the "shame list," as it was apparently created in response to LGBT groups demanding that the administration point out Christian schools who refused to follow Obama's controversial transgender directive so they can use the list to pressure the groups to change their policies. Some LGBT groups, for instance, are now trying to get the NCAA to deny sports conference participation to schools on the list.

"Instead of promulgating rules that conflict with congressional intent, the Department of Education has skirted the rule-making process altogether by issuing guidance documents they call 'Dear Colleague' letters," lamented Republican Senator James Lankford.
