The EO is literally just reaffirming the constitution, that the executive branch is under the president.
I don’t know if you can read, but saying that all independent regulatory agencies, even those approved by congress, are now magically fully controlled by the president, without restriction, doesn’t exactly uphold the constitution, nor does it uphold our existing laws regarding how these agencies are approved/confirmed, funded, and operated.
Can you cite the part of the constitution that states the executive branch has control over all interpretation of laws and functioning of agencies independently authorized by congress?
“(b) “Agency,” unless otherwise indicated, means any authority of the United States that is an “agency” under 44 U.S.C. 3502(1), and shall also include the Federal Election Commission.
The Federal Election Commission was not under Presidential rule prior to their executive order. It would be ridiculous for an elected position to control the election commission for obvious reasons of election tampering potential.
This might seem to be a reaffirmation of the constitution at a passing glance, but most certainly is more sinister if you dig into the statues and governmental overseeing bodies being affected by this claim.
He knows he has to say that or you will eviscerate him. Conservatives lie about their true feelings when they think it will negatively impact them. They have no courage.
im not angry, just bewildered. im just a spectator commenting on your tribalistic behaviour causing you to instantly call me a conservative because i said your commentary is garbage, and quite frankly that’s an understatement. i hope you understand that this behaviour is one of the reasons why the democrats lost the election and that partisanism is a construct designed to make you angry and be divided from your neighbours, and you have clearly fallen for it.

I’m so tired of these clear lies.
Sure, they just wrote an EO for no reason whatsoever. Oh boy, I can’t wait for the EO to remind everyone that we live in the northern hemisphere.
I don’t know if you can read, but saying that all independent regulatory agencies, even those approved by congress, are now magically fully controlled by the president, without restriction, doesn’t exactly uphold the constitution, nor does it uphold our existing laws regarding how these agencies are approved/confirmed, funded, and operated.
Yeah, because they’re in the executive branch. They always have been.

And then there was silence

Ah, a Putin shlurper extraordinaire
If you could find a single comment where I’m supporting Putin, I’d be amazed
So you’re saying you’re actually not conservative?
I am conservative.
Okay. Well show me I’m wrong and tell us your stance on Putin and specifically the war in Ukraine.
Putin is a tyrant, and Russia invaded Ukraine. Ukraine should keep all their territory, and Russia should pay for all Ukraine’s wartime debts.
Thanks for that response. I apologize for my assumption and I’m happy I’m wrong. With this said, how do you feel Trump is handling Putin currently?
He knows he has to say that or you will eviscerate him. Conservatives lie about their true feelings when they think it will negatively impact them. They have no courage.
Not well tbh. But he’s handling other things better. You win some, you lose some.
God the political discourse on lemmy has fallen off a cliff in terms of quality
Looks like you’re owning up to being conservative. Thanks for your input, rando
I am a conservative because I criticized you? You learn something new every day
You’re mad that I made a pretty safe assumption about conservatives.
