Summary
Donald Trump signed an executive order expanding presidential control over independent agencies, including the FTC, FCC, and SEC.
The order enforces the “unitary executive theory,” which argues the president has sole authority over the executive branch. It grants Trump’s budget chief, Russell Vought, oversight of these agencies’ performance and budgets.
The move is expected to face legal challenges, as past presidents have largely respected agency independence.
Trump defended the order, stating, “He who saves his Country does not violate any Law.”
The southern and conservative trash has brought us first the confederacy, the folks that supported Hitler in WW2, Nixon who said the president was the law whilst ordering crimes, Reagan who sold drugs to fund death squads, Bush Jr who lied to start a war and normalized torture, now Trump.
Conservationism in America has been on the wrong side of history since monarchists supported a British Kings’s right to rule the colonies.
