It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.

When he was four years old, my nephew exercised better operational security for his dad’s 40th birthday party than this president’s cabinet did with actual military plans.

My family has always done breakfast for dinner. Hannibal kind of spoiled it with the High Life Eggs episode; @midnightburger.bsky.social redeemed it thoroughly with Night Breakfast. Have just finished up eggs and bacon and toast with Mom and Dad…
