This assumption of power by the White House is terrible, but it is unfortunately an old story.

When I was researching the EPA, I was shocked to discover that the Agency and its authority were created, not by legislation, but by executive order (Nixon, 1971). This gigantic and powerful entity's eanbling law cannt be repealed, because there is no enabling law in the first place.

Yes, we have had a bunch of lib rinos for a long time.

EPA should be ended the same way it started. In fact, every EO should end with the end of the administration who declared it.

NO, fact is, we should do away with EO entirely.

Today, I fear for the Republic more than I ever have. Today, not just the law was ignored but the sovereignty of the entire nation has been declared immaterial. The very principle of a nation with borders and a definition has been pissed on.
