Why do we need Congress with executive orders?

Yes I saw that but the amount and the scope matters I dug this up which includes the first lot of presidents.

“Washington issued a total of eight executive orders in his two terms, according to the project’s data, while John Adams, James Madison, and James Monroe all issued only one. Presidents who issued the least also include Thomas Jefferson (four) and John Quincy Adams (three).”

I don’t know exactly when they went into berserker mode with them, but they are monumental in what they do that I see little use for congress, maybe they could make special appearances to bring in a new judge or something.

Our country is looking more and more like Venezuela as each day passes:

and here we are today:

Our socialist/fascist revolutionaries, which now control the Democrat Party Leadership, are known for accusing others of what they themselves are guilty of.

I wonder why we put armed guard at the Capitol? You think one side caused that?

I wonder who caused it. Notice the US flag was outnumbered by another flag.

Did he?

Yes.

you sure youre not laughing at how the left now loves them so much?

even the NYT:

Agreed I am not sure why some thinks everyone has to be lock step with their party in every way, or even worse agree with everything their party does. I am a conservative but have found myself agreeing with the left on quiet a few issues such as healthcare and certain safety nets although I think some need to be reformed.

A person can hold the position that abusive EO’s regardless of party are being abused and are detrimental to the system. Its not even the amount it’s the size of the EO’s that people take notice. All these laws are supposed to be written in congress regardless of who’s in charge. I don’t think that’s a radical position to hold.

Executive orders do not grant the power of “king” . He is still constrained by the limits on the power of the various departments over which he is the head. It is in Congress’ ability to claw back power from the executive. However, if Congress remains as badly divided as the rest of the country, get used to executive orders being the way this country is run

Yes eventually we’ll do it through laws. For now, EO will put us on that path.

huh…

i dont recall such a tempered reasoned attitude toward trump’s EOs

The irony of a Trump supporter is the mother lode.

yeah because trump was the true dictator huh?

sorry “racist dictator”

I realized Trump was right to use massive amount of EOs. It is the right of president. So Biden should do the same.

Yet you loved it when it when POTUS declared an emergency to circumvent congress.

You can’t have it both ways.

The Republican Party refused an orderly transition and now they crocodile tear not being involved in executive orders that wipe out trumps e/o’s
