The Judicial branch is not supposed to legislate. It's really that simple.

Neither is the Executive branch supposed to legislate.

But the Executive Branch is in charge of keeping our country safe. You might want to re-read your tag.

I'm with you you in this. The same people defending this now will scream bloody mudrer when a dem president designates the NRA or some such as a terrorist group. I remember seeing a FBI flier during the clinton administration saying one of the signs to watch for a terrorist was carrying a copy of the constitution around. So i'm guessing these so called conservatives defending this will find themselves singing a different toon when a designation is something they don't agree with

"Neither is the Executive branch supposed to legislate."

The Executive Order that is the subject of this article is within the pervue of the duties of Commander in Chief. This is not a legislative matter, it is a lead the war matter and, therefore, is part of the job description of the President of the US, not a part of the job description of Congress.

I noted on an earlier reply that you said Congress approves and funds plans. If that is the case, you can enumerate the plans that they have passed and the plans they have declined to pass. You will not be able to do that, because Congress does not pass plans, they fund the military programs or do not fund the military programs.

It is true they are given updates every 60 days, but they do not vote on individual plans.
