> Congress has the authority to spend money, not the president.
In practice, or by paper/pesky "laws"? Because sending $10 billion to organizations the president see fit, certainly makes that seem less true in practice.
FWIW, I think/hope that the long term outcome of this president and SCOTUS rulings will be that the president has much more authority in areas spelled out for him in the constitution, and in areas where congress gives it away freely, AND, an a result, congress stops open ended / broad delegation to the president.
