I know what plagerism is and you did it. Wikipedia isn't a valid source, but since you're going to use then the article actually supports what I said about what presidents were doing in passing laws and not Congress. Executive Order 1 issued by Abraham Lincoln that placed a judge on the bench without the consent of the Senate in violation of Article II Section II Clause II, which states he needed to have 2/3rds of the Senate approving the appointment before the judge worked the bench. Also, Congress sets the amount of money judges and public officials makes, but under Executive Order 1 Lincoln set the pay rate in violation of Article III Section I Clause I.
Why isn't Wikipedia a valid source? As long as you check it's sources your fine. I didn't know court cases aren't valid evidence. Also, you still have the rest of the 20th century Presidents to go.
