Q:What Republican President was the worst offender of E.O.s if graded by impact and sheer quantity of humans both here and abroad?
A: Reagan.
He GAVE the NSA by unbridled power by executive order. (edited)
""""
It was President Reagan’s infamous Executive Order 12333 (referred to as “twelve-triple-three”
that established and handed to the NSA virtually all of the powers under which the agency operates to this day—allowing the agency to collect the data that so many now find to be so offensive.
McClatchy describes Executive Order 12333 as follows:
“It is a sweeping mandate that outlines the duties and foreign intelligence collection for the nation’s 17 intelligence agencies. It is not governed by Congress, and critics say it has little privacy protection and many loopholes.”
Reagan to Use Executive Orders to Bypass Congress
August 21, 1987|JACK NELSON | Times Washington Bureau Chief
WASHINGTON — With 17 months of his presidency remaining, Ronald Reagan will bank on executive orders and judicial action to implement social policies that he cannot persuade Congress to enact, Gary L. Bauer, the President's chief domestic policy adviser, declared Thursday.
Bauer, the feisty attorney Reagan named to push his social issue agenda, said the President may accomplish some of his goals in such areas as abortion and pornography through a series of executive orders and by his appointment of conservative judges to the federal judiciary, including his nomination of Judge Robert H. Bork to the Supreme Court.
