It’s simply astounding how penumbras and emanations are invalid when it comes to an end result that certain people hate - abortion - but are constitutionally mandated when it comes to an end-result that those very same people love.
The president does not have some magical power to frustrate the enacted will of Congress when it comes to spending, any more than he has the power to frustrate it’s enacted will in any other respect.
The very same people who are screeching that the Republic is over because Biden is choosing to not enforce Congress’ duly enacted immigration laws are now here singing hosannas to the presidents supposed ability to choose not to enforce a duly enacted law that mandates spending.
Wow. We all know that liberals are hypocrites, but apparently there is more than enough hypocrisy to go around.
The President has one, and only one, constitutionally permissible method of frustrating the enacted will of Congress, and that is through the veto. If the President either does not veto a bill, or his veto is overriden, then the presidents independent power is at an end, and the president’s Constitutional duty thereafter is to carry out the mandates of Congress’ duly enacted will. and that includes mandatory spending as well as mandatory immigration rules.
