  1. >Trump signed an executive order that an aide said “reestablishes the long-standing norm that only the president or the attorney general can speak for the United States when stating an opinion as to what the law is.” The order comes as Trump allies question court rulings blocking some of his initiatives and critics worry his administration will disregard judicial orders.

    >Trump also signed a presidential memorandum that would require federal agencies to report waste, fraud and abuse that’s uncovered and details of programs that are eliminated. An aide described it as “imposing radical transparency requirements on government departments and agencies.”

    Wait so what do judges do now?

    Like, is the intent to just declare them irrelevant, or is this another order that’s so badly worded that even his supporters can’t follow it?

  3. The article said that an aide said something. Where is the actual executive. I really want to see this shit
