Ah but what is executive power? It's the power granted to the President by the Constitution, the Legislature and the courts, and nothing more. Not whatever the President wants it to be. We are not a dictatorship. The President does not have whatever unlimited powers he wants.
No. Read duties of the president in the Constitution. As the legislature, you don't redefine the duties of a president by definitions and statutes. It's stated in the language.
You don't create federal cabinet level departments under the executive branch and then tell the administrative state they have power over the president. No way in hell is that how our govt is supposed to run.
US codes and statutes do NOT obviate the Constitution. Ever.
The bold is true. But, you seem to have missed the fact that if the legislative branch approves legislation and the President signs and that the judiciary branch finds that it is constitutional, the statute is not obviating the Constitution. The so-called administrative state does not have power over the President but the President does not have the power to ignore laws.
If the administrative state does not have power over the president, then why was DJT dragged into court over classified documents. HE embodies the classification since he is the Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces. Classifications and state secrets aren't mentioned in the Constitution, but the president IS the top dog in the executive branch, which the military and IC fall under. Almost ALL federal departments, bureaus and agencies fall under the executive branch and the cabinets do also.
Simple. Trump didn't follow the law. MAGAs frequently confuse the head of the executive branch with a dictator. Or, more accurately, only have that confusion when Trump is President. Otherwise, you guys don't think the President has any power. There is a legal mechanism of declassifying documents. Trump did not follow that procedure. Had Trump returned the documents when asked, his violation of the law would not have been a big deal. However, he refused to comply and that's what resulted in problems.
We are supposed to have a government of laws, not men. Trump is a President, bound by laws. Not a king. Please try to remember that.
WHAT LAW?
He IS the law! By virtue of being CICAF. HE is the Original Classification Authority by his position!
This is like an Abbott and Costello Who's on First conversation.
No, he is not the law. You have again confused a president with a king. Please try not to make that mistake.

Look at what you are arguing though.
Merrick Garland sues Texas to state that only the federal govt can enforce immigration law. It's decided in the federal govt's favor.
Two years later when ICE is now doing their jobs, the same side of the aisle is suddenly whining about states rights and how DJT is a king!
Does everything have to be relitigated and re-lawfared when control of the govt changes parties?
Are we a nation of laws or a nation of men?
I don't think anybody is arguing that the Federal government should not or cannot enforce immigration law. Rather, what is being contested are the threats being made by Trump to punish states that do not do his bidding and his seizure of California's National Guard against the wishes of the Governor of California. How would you have reacted if Biden had deployed the Texas National Guard to protect abortion clinics?
Are you suggesting that Roe v Wade should not have been relitigated? Do you believe that Chevron should not have been relitigated? Or is your issue with relitigation only with cases you don't want relitigated?

Exactly. Men who have even the slightest modicum of respect for their partner and self control dont look or stare. But given the fact that the men who flock to a mom forum to argue with women are not exactly the prize of the bunch, it wont be the ones you find on here.
What about women? Do they look? There’s a whole thread about this. Seems they do. Perhaps women who post here aren’t the prize of the bunch either?
Also, what made this a mom forum? Be specific.
Women, by and large, have the social awareness not to stare the way men do. And what dont you understand about the acronym "DCUM"? Any clue what that stands for, buddy?
I direct your attention to the very top of the page. Glad I could help you with your confusion.
You should read this so-called mom’s forum more if you think women are the model of maturity and social awareness. Including a thread on this very section that is active right now where women are getting sexually aroused by just being in the presence of a man they find attractive.
Imagine if a man spoke about some woman who isn’t his wife giving him a big boner? Weird stuff.
A tagged on "and dads" in very small font to appease the men who invade women's spaces and then make a stink of it doesnt change the fact that this was founded as and always has been a mommy forum. Glad I could help with your "confusion" (even though you know damn well this is a mom space)
Being excited by being in the presence of someone is not the same staring at them, and the fact that you dont realize that simply proves my point about the men in this forum being emotionally fragile and socially inept. What's not clicking?
Ok time to go back to your summer womens studies classes at GW now. You’re on the fringes of society.
DCUM is a “woman’s space”
lol
Yes and by that logic you should get back to your "Hustler's University" course, lol
A man hanging out in a mommy forum bickering with females, can't think of anything more pathetic or less masculine. My God.
It’s been established, even by you, that this isn’t a mommy’s forum.
And oh, NO! You called me not masculine? Allow me to cry into my pure silk cravat and drink my herbal tea.
The cognitive dissonance of both excoriating “toxic masculinity” whilst at the same time bullying someone you assume is a man for not being masculine must make your brain rattle to the point of near combustion.
But such is modern feminist “thinking”. A series of subjective rules applied only to men to vilify and demonize them. And at the same time being permissive of bad behavior by women all in the name of equality and revenge.
The blatant lying is pretty hilarious. I've only been mocking you for hanging out in a mommy forum and pointed out that it's quite literally in the name and URL. Anyway can actually scroll up and see that. But I suppose that's you console yourself from regularly losing debates on this forum and convincing exactly zero people of your point of view. Congrats, you've probably convinced more women to steer clear of men who stare at young women, so if that was your goal, by all means, keep going.
I can and will absolutely mock you for not being masculine. That's exactly how you ended up in a whiny red pill spiral. And it's how you ended up spending your Saturday bickering with girls online 💅🏻 Go ahead with your bad self
You seem confused. It’s not a mommy forum.
It is. And arguing about this is absurd when it's literally in the URL.
I’ve seen a lot of dumb posts by “men” on here. Arguing that it’s not a mommy forum when it’s literally the title of the website is a new one. It’s definitely a mommy forum. It just happens to “allow” men. That doesn’t take away the fact that it is, indeed, a mommy forum 😂
Imagine being so insecure that you try to deny reality. I’m guessing their brains aren’t fully developed yet.
Yeah, he's embarrassed and raging cause he knows it makes him look bad. He's fine with coming off completely delusional because it's better than the alternative of admitting he's a total loser who hangs out on a mommy board arguing with women.
It's the only way any women will bother talking to him
Still not a mommy board. You keep saying this. I don’t think you know what it means. Also you’re weird.
We know you’re not a dad either, stop playing
If I wasn’t a mom or dad, why would I be here? The name SAYS IT doesn’t it? It’s right there in the URL!!!! Omg!!!
Weird single celibate men who hang out on mommy websites are weird.
Still not a mommy website. Geez. Do you have trouble reading?
You are on www.dcurbanmom.com
You’re on a mommy website bro. Your complete and utter rejection of reality is getting bizarre. You need help.
“Bro”, I direct your attention to the top of the website.
www.dcurbanmom.com
What a f***ing dumbass you’d have to be to keep denying the obvious.
Not the same poster (Jeff can confirm - also notice who runs the site) - "mommy" forum has a connotation - as the prior poster stated look at the list of topics. Many of these have absolutely nothing to do about being a mom. Many of us are here just to ****talk soccer or politics or whatever. Making absurd statements like you continue to do don't exactly help your case.
This is honestly so sad. Sure there are multiple topics on this mommy site. The distorted reality you’ve created to separate yourself from the mommy forum is insane. It’s fine to admit. I post on multiple forums, one of which, this one, happens to be a mommy forum.
Not sure if youve considered this before, but this isn’t a mommy forum. It’s called DC Urban Mom and Dads. Had this occurred to you?
It actually is, no matter how much that bothers you. I guess you refuse to admit it because you know how utterly pathetic it is to spend your Saturday trolling on here
It’s not a mommy forum. The name is still DC Urban Moms and Dads. That’s an immutable fact.
It’s funny how many times you will insist that something that is, is in fact not… simply because you want to hurl ad hominem attacks. Are you ok?
It is a mommy forum, hence the URL being "DC Urban MOMS". Nothing you can do or how many times you whine about it will change that. I know it embarrasses you because it highlights what a weird loser of a man you are, but denying an obvious fact that people can see whenever they type this website into their URL bar only makes you look crazy.
This is a really stupid argument and both of you should feel like idiots for engaging in it. But, just for the record, I would have a particular bone to pick about the argument that DCUM is nothing more than a "mommy forum". I may well be a weird loser of a man as well, but that is a different argument.
I could give you the history of the URL, but it would be boring and a waste of time. But, in short, men have been a part of this website from the very beginning. Generally in the minority, and frequently looked down upon, but there nonetheless.
I kind of have a bone to pick with chiming in to correct THIS rather than the men who so often come to this forum to be vitriolic, cruel, and misogynist. There IS a misogyny problem here, so yeah, this forum does seem to attract weird men, and maybe that is because this is the URL of a mommy forum, and that's really what this place is thought of (thus what it is, regardless of intent). But I would really look forward to you intervening to call out the misogyny that so often pops up here, rather than scolding the women when we do attempt to gatekeep this space against abusive men. It is a problem, maybe one that has contributed to the dwindling traffic/posts at this place
Rather than trashing the website and contributing to making it even worse than you already believe it to be, perhaps you can make use of the "report" link that is included with every post? You don't really expect me to read every single message on this website do you? Moreover, if you think that antagonizing me is going to make me more sympathetic to your cause, you have a lot to learn about human nature.
But if youre lurking in threads and intervening when you see something you dont like, why not against the misogynistic BS? I mean of all people to go to bat for, why this creep?
I am not lurking in this thread. At least not until now since I am watching for your replies. I found out about this discussion about whether DCUM is a "mommy forum" thanks to a poster who, unlike you, is familiar with the "report" link and asked me to stop the argument. Since I have failed totally in that regard, I probably should just lock this thread.

That post is off topic for the schools forums. In fact, it is off-topic for every forum here. Try Reddit.

In theory, we are just a couple of years away from massive breakthroughs in EV technology. In reality, that may never get to the U.S. thanks to Trump. If you want to move to an EV now or in the near term, there are plenty of good choices. But we would need to know more about what you are seeking. What kind of styling do you prefer? What is your budget? Do you intend to buy or lease? Do you need to be able to go long distances (and if so, how long) or do you only need a commuting and around town car? Can you install a home charger?

This was never in question. Every president has enjoyed this power. So why was it brought up in court? To slow the process?
Read Beyer's opinion. There is a legitimate question about whether the President acted lawfully. Beyond the question of whether he legally took control the Guard. There is now an issue of Posse Comitatus. There was no delay. Beyer stayed his own opinion.

DP.
You talk about hobbling the judiciary.
Didn't Joe Biden hobble the legislative branch when he refused to enforce the border controls as head of the executive branch?
Review the Vesting Clause of the Constitution. Bringing every issue up in the judiciary because you believe it isn't an open question doesn't stand.
Even the Ninth Circuit court is unanimously pushing back against the very ideas you espouse. See the decision by them this past week.
You guys always react the same way. You try to "whatabout" Joe Biden. If Biden did something wrong, that was wrong. If Trump is doing the same thing, it is still wrong. Why do you believe that two wrongs make a right? Isn't that something that you are taught not to believe as a child?
In fact, both Biden and Obama were often their own worst enemies by relying too heavily on Congress and attempting to be bipartisan. That is far different than Trump rule by Sharpie. Biden didn't refuse to enforce border controls. Rather, he followed existing U.S. law by honoring asylum applications.
A simple reading of the Constitution should persuade you that the President does not have the right to make law simply but signing an Executive Order. These are being brought to courts because they are illegal, exactly as courts have been finding them. Even Trump-appointed judges are making such findings. Why do you hate our system of checks and balances?
Biden's EOs were constantly stopped by Judges. People like you claimed that showed his actions were illegal. Now, when it happens to Trump, you have a different opinion. It is find to act in a politically partisan manner. Everyone has their biases. But just own it. Admit that you have different standards for Biden and Trump.

For the record, I’m a registered Republican—but not a Trump Republican—and I make an honest effort to cross-check information from both liberal and conservative sources before forming opinions. That said, here are a few things I struggle to reconcile:
• Why did Trump’s deportation policies provoke such outrage when Obama actually deported more people during his time in office?
• Why do people say Trump “put kids in cages” when the chain-link enclosures at the border were first built and used under the Obama administration?
• How can anyone argue, in good faith, that Joe Biden is mentally sharp or fully cognizant?
• Why is Trump constantly accused of “destroying democracy” when the U.S. isn’t technically a pure democracy to begin with?
• Juneteenth is celebrated as the end of slavery in the U.S., but it wasn’t actually the last instance—some Native American nations, like the Choctaw, still held Black slaves months afterward. And the fact that people of color owned slaves is almost never discussed.
• And don’t get me started on slogans like “Queers for Palestine.” It seems like the ultimate test of loving your neighbor—until you realize that in many places under Palestinian control, LGBTQ+ individuals face severe persecution. How does that reconcile?
There’s a lot more I’m sure but this is just off the top of my head. How does anyone in the center reconcile all of this?
Last question: will we ever return to a society where people can disagree, even strongly, without being canceled, shouted down, or dismissed with lines like, “It’s not my job to educate you”?
I’m open to real dialogue here—not trolling, not tribalism. Just looking for perspectives grounded in facts, logic, and a little humility.
Obama deported people who had just been detained crossing the border. He was actually criticized by Republicans for including those in his deportation numbers because Republicans didn't consider them real deportations. Trump, in contrast, is deporting people who have been here for years, planted roots, and become part of their communities. Both were wrong in my opinion and both deserve criticism, though for different reasons.
Obama created the cages to handle unaccompanied minors who needed to be kept separate from adults. Trump used them to separate families. Again, both were wrong in my opinion and both deserve criticism, but for different reasons.
Biden was mentally cognizant enough to create a growing economy that was rebuilding its industrial base. Trump, on the other hand, believes that "groceries" is an old term that he has to define for people. My question for you is how you can be concerned about Biden's mental competence without being similarly concerned about Trump's.
The U.S. was established as a democratic republic. Trump is destroying that. This sort of question suggests a severe lack of knowledge on your part and causes me to doubt whether or not you are really acting in good faith. Trump has already marginalized the legislative branch by relying on illegal executive orders. He is now trying to hobble the judiciary branch. By establishing an executive branch that has no checks, Trump is establishing a dictatorship. That should be obvious to you.
At the end of the Civil War, the Choctaw nation was not part of the United States. Juneteenth marks the end of U.S. government sanctioned slavery in the South. At that time, there were still slaves in Delaware and Kentucky. Why are you complaining about Choctaws and not the Americans who still held slaves?
If you believe in rights, you must believe that they are universal. Trump, and apparently you, see everything as transactional. That suggests a lack of belief in real values. You cannot claim to oppose genocide yet support it because you don't like the people being murdered. If that is your position, you actually support genocide. Free speech is famously said to be important for speech you oppose rather than speech you support. That is true in the case of every right. You can't take the position that people deserve certain rights but only if they adhere to a list of values you support. That would not be a right, but rather a privilege.
Based on user feedback, we have split the original Diest and Exercise Forum. This forum has been renamed Diet, Nutrition & Weight Loss and is for the discussion of those topics. A new Fitness and Exercise forum has been created in the Sports section. Please post exercise topics there unless it is strictly exercise for the purpose of weight loss. In that case, it can still be posted here.

I have been trying to decide whether there is a way to read Diet & Exercise and avoid the disordered eaters. I’ve come to the conclusion I cannot.
I support creating a separate forum for this reason. I think there should be an Exercise & Fitness forum, and a Diet, Nutrition & Weight Loss forum.
I don't find the GLP discussion depressing or upsetting, but I have no interest in discussing GLPs or any diet-related weight loss approaches. I just want to discuss exercise and fitness. If I discuss food in that context, it would be something like "what do you eat to help with recovery after heavy lifting?" or "good non-messy snacks for the gym" or something. Weight loss is not part of my exercise/fitness journey -- I only care about building strength, getting better at my sport, and feeling good. But the Diet & Exercise forum is largely about weight loss.
We have done exactly what this poster asked. You all can thank Maria because she took on the chore of moving threads to the new forum. Without her volunteering for that task, I would not have made the changes.
