The Administrative State's Threat to the American Constitution The founders did not consider the three branches of government to be equal.  They anticipated that the legislative branch would be the most powerful (by virtue of the authority to make law) and that the judicial branch would be the least powerful of the three.  Their concern with the power of the legislative branch was such that, as another of their checks and balances, they divided it into two chambers; a House of Representatives, elected directly by the people, and a Senate, appointed by the state legislatures.  In this manner, each chamber would check the other, reducing the chances of a tyranny by the legislative branch. Didn't we just hear pelosi telling us she's the most powerful in DC, further proof she's NOT (and we also learn about her IGNORANCE).  https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2019/05/the_administrative_states_threat_to_the_american_constitution.html#ixzz5n3lsoVwm  Follow
