AND, those of us who know this have a duty to disobey unconstitutional regulations.
Only slaves obey orders without questioning them.
Thank you for finding better words. The president has no authority to pass anything with the force of law on all of us. Governors and state health commissioners, however, do, at least in the US. The function of the executive branch, all of it, is to enforce laws that the congress has passed. None of them have the constitutional authority to make laws. I cannot believe how many of us think all of these mandates, created by entities of the executive branch, are perfectly reasonable.
Keep in mind that Biden is not the only president to have used executive orders to put through regulations. This has become the favorite tool of the president. Trump signed a number of executive orders during his term, and several of the presidents before him also used the executive order as a tool.
yeah, they've been known to use EO's from time to time :)
Indeed...
