If the various agencies of the Executive Branch were still operating under Constitutional authority, such a letter from Congress would bear considerable and compelling influence. The problem is, at present, it appears the entire Executive Branch no longer subscribes to constitutionally defined limits on their authority. Thus, the Republican Representatives appear feckless.

That's why we see officials from the DOJ, FBI and others being heatedly questioned by various oversight committees and not feeling in the least any compunction to provide answers to those questions. . .essentially only saying, "Senator, thank you for that question. . now go F yourself."

The scary thought is where, then, do they surmise is the source of this new unchecked power? The answer is, probably, their bigger guns and more ammo. . .and certainly not the authority granted to them by THE PEOPLE.
