If this doesn't sound like a dictator then I don't know what a dictator is

The ultimate court - American people - got the evidence they needed to reverse the decision of the courts at the ballot box in 2024.  The 2020 election and its aftermath will be shown to be one of the most devastating examples of a Pyrrhic Victory ever suffered.  81 million votes for the most amazing man EVER IN AMERICA, Joe Biden!

Doesn't mean the election was stolen because a republican was voted in next term. The democratic party was a complete joke and fumbled the bag. Too much concentration and stupid woke bs instead of real world problems - this is the result of that. Not a made up "stolen" election. But go on and keep preaching lies, your idols are full of them as well.

Sec. 7.  Rules of Conduct Guiding Federal Employees’ Interpretation of the Law. The President and the Attorney General, subject to the President’s supervision and control, shall provide authoritative interpretations of law for the executive branch.  The President and the Attorney General’s opinions on questions of law are controlling on all employees in the conduct of their official duties.  No employee of the executive branch acting in their official capacity may advance an interpretation of the law as the position of the United States that contravenes the President or the Attorney General’s opinion on a matter of law, including but not limited to the issuance of regulations, guidance, and positions advanced in litigation, unless authorized to do so by the President or in writing by the Attorney General. 

Does the judicial branch report to the executive branch?  Nope.  Article III of the Constitution keeps the judiciary separate.

Does the judicial branch still hold checks on the executive branch?  Yep.

The EO does not rewrite the Constitution or neuter the courts.

Trump now gets alignment as he promised within the executive branch and reduces being undermined by the "deep state."  Win for the people!

Trump is a dictator!  Fact Check FALSE.

Breaking Watergate’s Hold on the Presidency 

 

President Trump's flurry of executive orders represents the most aggressive phase of the campaign against the dysfunctional administrative state.  Trump does not mean solely to turn back the clock to the “halcyon,” pre-Watergate days of the Imperial Presidency.  A President who wants to shut down the Department of Education and hand its responsibilities off to the states is not seeking to concentrate more power within the Executive branch.  

If Trump succeeds, the federal government's elected branches will re-acquire lost powers. Trump aims not to eviscerate congressional power but to restore a lost sense of congressional responsibility. Unelected and unresponsive bureaucrats should not make the hard decisions in domestic policy but, again, should return to popularly elected representatives.  At the same time, the President, too, would no longer be saddled with a recalcitrant bureaucracy.  The civil service will understand that it exists to carry out the President’s and Congress’s policies, not to pursue an agenda of its own.  Trump wants the right-sizing of the Administrative state, and certainly not its expansion.  His aim, as we see it, is not to accrue power to the executive but to see that power flows through its proper channels.  That is a goal worth fighting for.

Your butt buddy Fuentes right there is the one saying it. 

[Husker_Du]

i don't know who Fuentes is. 

the point is that pokemonster saying that Biden was more effective at policing immigration is adorable.

i also love how all the lefties (in the MSM and the stooges on here) keep parroting that those that voted for trump are disappointed. y'all can keep believing that if it makes you feel warm and cozy inside. it doesn't matter.
