The executive branch systematically dismantling itself doesn't sound like "ever more power".


It is if they are dismantling the pieces for their own benefit. Removing power from the institution and giving it to themselves.


If Congress already passed a law to regulate food so customers don't get poisoned.

And the president can say "I'm gonna ignore that and dismantle the agency Congress set up to do it"

What power does Congress have anymore?


Is that honestly what is happening though? Or is that an exaggeration and presumption to try and make your point?

Fact, no one can show that USAID’s more curious and controversial grants served American interests.
