I wonder what could have possibly happened in history for Congress to have passed laws to create these ‘so-called “independent regulatory agencies”’ in the first place… https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/02/ensuring-accountability-for-all-agencies/

oh and also this "In American law, the unitary executive theory is a Constitutional law theory according to which the President of the United States has sole authority over the executive branch.[1] It is "an expansive interpretation of presidential power that aims to centralize greater control over the government in the White House".[2]" And here we are. Based on the recent rulings of the Supreme Court, it will be interesting to see how far they can push this. And first time I've seen a note like this on a wikipedia page lol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unitary_executive_theory#:~:text=In%20American%20law%2C%20the%20unitary,government%20in%20the%20White%20House%22.
