A short episode today, Jaywalkers! It's a quick primer on what executive orders are and a couple questions: Are executive orders overreach in general, is there a limit, or are they all good? And should Congress and the courts try fighting more of them or not?

Let me know your thoughts in the comments or at [email protected]!
