Who is actually calling the shots

Anonymous
In the White House, who is actually making decisions on policy. Is it Jill? Is it Kamala? Is it Jeff Zients? Someone else?

Not a Biden supporter but I will admit that my family has done fine under him the past few years. I just feel that as a taxpaying American citizen I deserve to know who is actually making decisions in the White House.

Who is the man and/or woman behind the curtain?

His advisors and council, which is public knowledge. It's okay to admit you have no understanding of the executive. None of this is new.

You have no shame and that is what’s wrong with Dems. Anything to protect the power you’d finagled for yourselves.

It’s Obama’s third term and he wants a fourth.

I'm not going to defend against an objective part of the presidency. Did you never watch a historical drama for APUSH where a president relied on his advisors?

Biden is a career politician and has been the Vice President previously. I'm sure he knows a couple politicians who have clear judgement through the years. He also likely got a few nudges from the DNC, the party whose platform he is supposed to represent.

Now what does Article II of the Constitution state?

Hmmmm. I'm not seeing the word council or advisors anywhere in there. Why is that?

Oh, there's the word President. Again and again.

His Cabinet departments are led by officials who were confirmed for that role by the Senate. Unlike the former guy, who kept acting secretaries around as long as he could (and sometimes unlawfully) because they were more beholden to him.

Doesn’t quite work that way. It’s the firm of Klain, Ricchetti and Zients who are in charge.

Advisors etc are supposed to serve the President and make it easier for him to make the best decisions, not make the decisions for him.
