Well, there’s also Elizabeth I, who in her dotage started handing out monopoly licenses to raise funds without needing to ask parliament. After a few years of that, she died.

yeah honestly what Johnson and Trump are doing rn is akin to a prime minister abruptly proroguing parliament. it’s a last resort, something you do to buy time when you’re afraid you’re going to be embarrassed or challenged on the floor

Not a lawyer either, so can't speak to how strained the reasoning is, but it's notable that a brand new law review article contending that TROs are very much appealable has been rather conveniently circulating on RW media. Got a writeup in National Review and everthing.

Where the AG is elected separately from the governor, as in OK, the unitary executive theory falls apart. The AG has room to act independently.

and in this case Stitt had backed someone else in the AG primary, so the split is real.

I mean, it feels unconstitutional to say a president has plenary (“absolute“) powers, but not according to SCOTUS and probably every lawyer that‘s ever worked in the executive branch. If only the public knew.
