In The Tank

Who actually runs this country? Voters asked for real change in November, and Donald Trump and his team are doing all they can to deliver it as quickly as possible. Yet federal judges use questionable authority to thwart it, keeping the Deep State status quo of unaccountable opposition to the people’s will — which includes shoveling YOUR MONEY to their connected leftist cronies.

Who is really in charge of the Executive Branch of the United States? The Constitution says it’s the president, who was elected by all the people to direct the administrative state. The legacy media and even some conservative legal scholars say: “It’s complicated.” Is it, really?

On episode #488 of The Heartland Institute’s In the Tank Podcast, host Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, Chris Talgo, and S.T. Karnick discuss the escalating resistance to the restoration of a government that serves the people and its elected representatives, instead of the other way around.
