"Executive Orders have been used for the last century to get around all kinds of constitutional hurdles: from torture, to starting wars, to interning Japanese-Americans.
Congress has done nothing to curtail the power of these executive orders for over a century so, as a result, we have 150 years of executive order precedent that says that an EO can do whatever it wants to do."
As @finnian said
The president of the US can NOT just abolish the Federal Government!
That's exactly my point....
if Adam really wants to change or even abolish our current federal government he should start at grassroot level by being a mayor or city council member then become a governor of a state....because if you actually know our US Constitution, STATE laws truncate any federal laws if it is NOT in the US Constitution.
Read the 10th Amendment in the Bill of Rights!
That itself is ENOUGH to tell any federal agent to F*** off and mind their own business AND TADA.....abolishing federal laws and federal powers.
Unfortunately most people don't understand the power of the 10th Amendment, which basically says that State has all power that is not stated in the US Constitution and making the STATE more powerful than federal government.
Yep, we shouldn't attach ourselves to the federal government other than to bleed it to death by a thousand cuts. Get back every penny you can legally and without being killed or put in a cage. Other than doing that, states, cities, communities, and individuals simply need to walk away. Ignore it and refuse to recognize its belief in power over everyone.
And that is exactly where I am getting at.
common misconception. to quote my friend:

The Office of the President has no such power even through an EO. It's laughable. People supporting Kokesh are being trolled.

It’s not a “common misconception.”
Who is “your friend”? What is the source of this quote?
