Agencies not "approved"....

So get this. These agencies are not "approved" by congress, and haven't been for some years.

"The FBI, the Drug Enforcement Agency and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives were not authorized by Congress since 2009"

So does this mean that if alphabet soup comes after you for something, your defense can be that they have no authority since they have not been approved by congress?

Criminal gangs don't care about the law, and neither do the judges when they're all on the same payroll with the rest of the mob.

"Arguably, a majority of members of Congress would love to see the government run entirely on autopilot. Congress has abdicated so much authority to the executive," Bydlak said. "With fewer policies in the legislative process, members of Congress will have less accountability for outcomes."

Lazy a*******...

I don't approve of those agencies. It's a no vote for me.

I'm sure that won't go the way someone hopes if they come knocking. The government rarely cares about technicalities.
