“The Unitary Executive Theory holds that the Article II of the Constitution creates a hierarchy. The president sits at the top of the hierarchy and bears the responsibility for overseeing enforcement of federal law. The UET has been embraced by the Federalist Society, as well as conservative (and some liberal) law professors, judges, and of course, presidents. Donald Trump is merely the latest president to find the UET attractive. What makes Trump unique is the breadth that he seems to think the UET affords him.” (03/25/25)
