So, you have to ask yourself “Why are they doing that?”. My theory is that by doing so, the leadership of both parties understand that they only have to win one election - the presidency. After that, it’s’ simply a matter of executive orders, the Constitution be damned.
“Why are they doing that?”.
It is in their electoral interest. Every constituent helped to deal with an out of control agency is worth at least one, and probably several more votes.
Our congress-clowns get to claim credit for solving problems they create. Quite a racket.
