He, like Purin, could then jail opponents and kill all the journalists that he wants.

Justice Black, writing for the majority, declared that the president’s authority to act must derive from an “act of Congress or from the Constitution itself.” Since there was no specific enabling statute, Truman attempted to rely on inherent executive powers and his authority as commander-in-chief.

Don't make me go get the video and prove it.
