A Pres can sanction, yes, due to foreign affairs or needed interventions when there may be hostilities but a president can’t raise revenue by declaring taxes/tariffs. Congress at least is not a singular person body, and allows for deliberation before charging Americans billions of dollars in taxes.

“The survivors called on President Trump not to pardon Maxwell and pushed back on her transfer to the prison camp in Bryan, which came just days after the Department of Justice interviewed her about Epstein's high-profile associates.”
"The camp's grounds are dotted with live oak trees. Some of the facility's buildings are left over from the property's history as a hunting lodge.
On a typical morning, school buses rush by the camp as backyard roosters crow a couple blocks away. An idyllic setting."
