Unbiased University: Everything You Need to Know About the Executive Branch of the U.S. Government

UNBIASED University is in session! While Jordan is on maternity leave, she’s breaking down the most critical aspects of the United States government — the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the three branches of the federal government, presidential elections, the evolution of political parties, and more.

In this episode of UNBIASED Politics, we explore the Executive Branch of the United States government, the branch responsible for enforcing the nation’s laws. What powers does the president actually have, how is the executive branch structured, and how do federal agencies fit into the system? We break down the constitutional authorities granted to the presidency, the roles of the vice president and the Cabinet, the function of executive orders, and the ways the executive branch interacts with Congress and the courts through the system of checks and balances.

Whether you are looking for a refresher on how the presidency operates or want a clearer understanding of how federal policies are implemented, this episode provides a straightforward, nonpartisan guide to the executive branch and its role in the American system of government.
