Why is it that we make fun of Ted Cruz’s “sternly worded letters,” but everybody is freaking the fuck out over sternly worded letters from Biden?
EO’s aren’t legally binding, except in areas where the President has that power enumerated in the Constitution. That’s why President Trump’s travel ban EO was eventually instated, but his bump stock ban was thrown out. Immigration control is the purview of the executive branch, but creating new gun laws is not.
As soon as any of these get challenged in court they’re done-zo.

You assume the courts will uphold the constitution. I doubt your assumption is correct.
