Well, until now the congress pretended to have such authority. Now the imperial president thinks he alone does.

True ... yet I search Article One in vain for mention of any such authority. I search the entire Constitution in vain for a right to kill babies emanating from the penumbra of anything.

Looks like Maximum Leader 0dinga wants to join the Congress and the Supreme Court in making political power out of nothing at all.

All along, the Congress has been setting the precedent of ignoring Article 1 Section 8. So, if congress can ignore the enumerated list, it's just a small next step for the executive to ignore Article 1 Section 1.
