“Liberals have become convinced that a unitary executive is the end of the separation of powers. And conservatives have become convinced that liberals want unaccountable bureaucrats to rule the nation. The reason nobody is ever persuaded is that neither side sees the debate clearly. The debate only appears to be over the claim that all executive power vests in the president when, in truth, the debate is over the appropriate remedy to the problem of legislative power vesting in the president. The Constitution, of course, doesn’t give any legislative power to the president.” (05/01/25)
