Answer 1

Answer 1[A]: Using executive orders to send instructions to executive agencies and departments

This answer describes an executive power of the president because executive orders grant the president the authority to give instructions to executive agencies and departments. This allows the president to shape and direct the policies and actions of the executive branch, without needing approval from Congress. Executive orders can be used to implement or modify existing laws, establish new policies, or set forth guidelines for executive agency operations. It is a powerful tool that gives the president significant control and influence over the executive branch.
