White House challenges McCarthy on presidential powers
The White House insists the executive branch alone enforces laws and presidential orders, rejecting any assertion by Senator McCarthy that he can instruct federal employees or override a president. Hagerty said the statement, issued at the attorney general’s direction, responds to McCarthy’s remarks at Army hearings and clarifies constitutional duties and limits. The issue includes whether McCarthy could be prosecuted for obtaining classified information and notes two earlier episodes in the Army McCarthy hearings.
