Agreed with you Alex. I am concerned that Congress had steadily delagated more power to the President.

Most recently, the “tiktok ban” gave the President the power to ban apps/websites and allowed him to keep the reason for the ban classified.

This would have been an unthinkable affront to American freedom a decade ago. Yet we heard hardly a whimper in protest.

Why do presume presidents will only continue to gain more power?
