The Myths Presidents can issue executive orders that are legally binding on the general public. These executive orders are backed by the full force of law just like laws passed through the formal legislative process. A president can use executive orders to go around congress. The president can use executive orders to modify laws passed by congress and can order executive departments to selectively enforce provisions of laws. These executive orders are authorized by the Constitution. The Truth Yes the president can issue executive orders however these orders are only binding on members of the executive department of the federal government. They are not legally binding on anyone outside the executive department. Only laws passed through the formal legislative process have full force of law. Executive orders do not meet this requirement. Congress alone has the power to write and pass laws. If congress chooses not to pass laws that the president advocates for the president can in no way act unilaterally. The president is restrained by the Constitution. The president must enforce laws that are passed by the formal legislative process as they are written. If the president does not like a bill passed by congress or feels it violates the Constitution then the president can veto it before it becomes law. Issuing executives orders that are given the full force of law is a clear violation of several provisions of the Constitution. ![]()

Thanks for this post and link. Good info.
Why does fearless leader think that he and his minions are the only ones who want to curb "gun violence"? I do not know ANY gun owners that are in favor of gun violence or any other kind of violence for that matter. That's why we OWN guns in the first place: To PREVENT and deter violence. |
