Indeed. For those who pay attention it is pretty amazing how upset the Democrats are that the President would actually be taking care to see that the laws are faithfully executed. The Left seems to consider this an impeachable offense.

The irony is even greater when one realizes how many of those laws have been passed by a Democrat Congress. How dare the President enforce them!!

Bagpipes Barr thinks the law belongs to him, personally. And he will tell the President what is what. It’s “my job.”

Written by a future Chief Justice

The District Attorney might refuse to obey the President’s order; and if he did refuse, the prosecution, while he remained in office, would still go on; because the President himself could give no order to the court or to the clerk to make any particular entry. He could only act through his subordinate officer, the District Attorney, who is responsible to him and who holds his office at his pleasure.

The president is the AGs boss and since DJT is president, need I say more?
