re: He authorizes private companies to lie when he uses them to snoop, and forbids the press from telling the truth (if it's a classified leak!).

If you were paranoid (or not) you might think that there was a concerted, deliberate effort to undermine both of the other branches of government. To purposefully undermine the constitution. To build an Imperial Presidency.

From the 2000 election, the raiding of the congressional office, the disregard of courts with regard to wiretaps, attacking the press, the intimidation of judges, giving secrecy privileges to corporations, extra ordinary renditions, citizens held as enemy combatants without rights.... I'm sure there is more I'm forgetting.

It's not a fluke it's a pattern. And nobody is stopping them.
