“The president has less de facto control of the executive regulatory agencies than he ought to have as the head of the Executive Branch. But he himself also has too much power. One example now conspicuously in the public eye is the de facto powers the president now enjoys to unilaterally tax imported goods — that is, to levy tariffs. According to the Constitution, the power to levy taxes lies with Congress.” (03/19/25)
