Quote for the Day:

At the most basic level, government is supposed to be run by those inside the government. That precept ensures accountability. When the Article II branch—the executive—had been argued into existence by Madison and Hamilton in the Federalist Papers and then ratified in 1788, the idea was that presidents and those who worked directly for them would execute the executive functions under the Constitution, and legislative and judiciary branches would be able to “counteract” (Madison’s word) the president’s power should they need to.

But it’s harder to counteract the power of a freelancer.
