"Emergency powers", after all, "tend to kindle emergencies."

Damn.
This, from Roberts, may be the most important language in here (it showed up a lot in hearing).

Vast majority of this wealth is an untaxed, unrealized capital gain. Some of these billionaires borrow against their immense wealth at low rates for living expenses to avoid paying tax. When they die, the capital gain is no longer taxable. The strategy is known as “buy, borrow, die.”

The President, two of his current Cabinet secretaries, his former strategist, his biggest donor, and his pending Fed Chair nominee are all in the files of a pedophile who ran a sex trafficking ring, while the attorney general and a former Cabinet secretary let him get away with it.

Seems kinda bad?

Again, I must reiterate as Mr. Haden has here: Executive Orders are NOT law. Period. End of story. He’s out of his liver snapping mind so we focus on making sure his minions don’t interfere in state elections.
Repeat after me:
An executive order is not a royal edict; it is not law. It is a direction to the executive branch as to how to carry out the law.

Also:
Key parts of Trump's last EO on elections have been stopped by federal courts, ruling that the President has no role to play in federal elections
Trump’s follow up post says he’s going to issue an executive order on voter ID.

“If we can't get it through Congress, there are Legal reasons why this SCAM is not permitted. I will be presenting them shortly, in the form of an Executive Order.”
