Does anyone know under what legal authority this is happening?

The Security and Prosperity Partnership was created by Executive Order. The president instructs federal government agencies to implement it, and they do so out of existing budgets. Congress has no authority, unless it is to rescind the EO.

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't the Executive branch limited to implementing and enforcing laws passed by Congress? The President can send out all the EOs he wants, but without a specific law giving him the authority, especially with regards to expenditures of tax dollars, does he really have the legal right?

Also, isn't this subject to FOIA? (Where's Judicial Watch when you need them?)

A question.

If I had the chance to inform an uninformed about what is going on with the North America Union BS. If I could only offer them one article to see what's happening, what would that article be? Remember, I would only get one shot...one article.

Do you have the E.O. number? I'd like to read it.

"Congress has no authority"

Sure they do. They have the authority to pass the North American Cooperative Security Act.
