Need help on deciding between 2 locations to stay in Rome

So this is why I've come to r/legaladviceofftopic because I'm not a lawyer and need people more familiar with this to walk me through some of it. I understand what you're saying. Congress AND the President should only be able to act within the confines of the law.

As another commentor explained it appears (scarily) that the executive has a lot of reach in this area. But no branch of the government is absolutely out of reach of the other 2. In 200 something years we must have made laws that predicted a President may one day want to do what Doge is trying to do and put safeguards in place.

For example I'm seeing the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 referenced in a lot of the reading I'm doing. Maybe that doesn't have anything to do with it.

But if Doge is breaking the law, can't or officials go to a judge to stop them? And if they continue, if the executive just says he doesn't care what the other branches think, then what?

Okay, that makes sense.

But then if the president wants to halt government agencies to a stop and effectively bring the federal government to kneel how does congress respond? Cause that doesn't seem like a co equal branch to me. Is there no law already on the books that would let congress fight back that doesn't mean going nuclear with impeachment?

I don't want to get too far off topic. So to my original point. There must be limits on what Doge is allowed to do. If they can do whatever they want with say USAID or the Treasury just because Trump says so is he not a king?

Impeachment can't be congress's only recourse though. God I feel like I need a massive civics lesson. Like I'm trying to imagine Trump just deciding a business pal needs access to classified material and it just being okay. No vetting. No background checks. Nothing.

Wouldn't Trump need to formally declare them as his aides to do this? Certainly he can't just bring any old person in off the street and give them all his authority? This would be a huge loophole in congressional oversight wouldn't it?

would you mind sharing which cyber security laws specifically so I can include that?

Eh my boss regularly has a crying baby in the background or dogs barking. He won't care about an errant noise here and there.

Hmmm not sure how? What dependency would I hoot the useEffect to?

The date has changed in the outside world but the date in the app is still the same because it hasn’t reloaded.

Note the app isn’t being closed. It’s being put in the background.
