Why even have a Legislative branch when policy makers, both political parties and the mainstream media have all bought into the Unitary Executive theory of governance? We do not elect a king, and our President should not act is if he is Louis XIV proclaiming “L’etat c’est moi.” We now have a President who claims the ability to wage war without Congressional approval and assassinate American citizens without due process or judicial review.
