    I know nothing about US politics, but I am absolutely amazed by how much power the president apparently has. So this implies he can manage the day to day business of all federal agencies? What an unbelievable overreach of power.

      The thing is, the president isn’t supposed to have so much power. Congress and the Supreme Court are supposed to oversee the president.

      However, the Supreme Court and Congress are now packed with the president’s cronies.
