The option that is not a process carried out by the executive branch is "three fundamental military."
Here's a brief explanation for clarity:
- Sign executive orders - This is a process carried out by the executive branch where the President can issue orders that manage the operations of the federal government.
- Issue pardons - The President has the authority to grant pardons for federal offenses, which is also a function of the executive branch.
- Issue vetoes - The President has the power to veto legislation passed by Congress, which is a part of the legislative process but within the powers of the executive branch.
However, "three fundamental military" does not correspond to a known or recognized process related to the executive branch.
