Brian Fitzpatrick: ‘Every Dime’ in the Executive Branch Is Appropriated by Congress Under ‘Article One’

FITZPATRICK: “Yeah. Good morning Mika. Yes there is. I’m very confident that we’re going to kill this. We have a we have multiple tools at our disposal. Obviously there’s going to be litigation on constitutional grounds. There’s no precedent for this. Obviously not that we’re aware of, certainly. But second, the the executive Branch does not have any money in its own right. Every dime that resides in the executive Branch is appropriated by this institution by article one. Never before have we authorized this, presumably, and this is why I asked the acting attorney general these questions, and we expect an answer quickly. You know, what is the source of the funds that he’s using for this? What account is it in now and what account is he removing it from? To put it in this newly created fund that he just announced on may 18th. But what our bill said to Tom’s point is very simple."
