It's really about not needing congress when you have a dictator

Johnson has effectively dissolved congress and the president is operating outside our constitutional structure. Not sure it matters anymore.

The House no longer performs a function so it makes sense that it is dissolving itself.

The rescissions bill is unconstitutional. It violates the nondelegation doctrine.

Apparently, the big problem that the Republicans were trying to solve was that the rich are too poor and the poor are too rich.

Terra nullius - Wikipedia

Given his strong interest in acquiring territory, I suggest Trump take a look at en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terra_n...
He could consider Marie Byrd Land in Antarctica or that weird sector Bir Tawil between Egypt and Sudan.
