the notion of “inherent power” is anti-republican in the lower-case r sense. runs totally counter to the notion of a divided government of enumerated powers

That is a terrifying claim to make and not one that has ever been recognized before in US history.

“Dead” Ned Johnson turns out to be very much alive. It took him weeks to convince the system he was breathing and to start clawing his benefits back.
