naked authority

Read a random definition: ENERGY DEPARTMENT OF

A quick definition of naked authority:

Naked authority is when someone gives permission to another person to do something, but only for their own benefit and without giving anything in return. This type of authority can be taken away at any time. There are other types of authority, like actual authority (when someone intentionally gives permission to another person), apparent authority (when someone seems to have permission even if they don't), and implied authority (when permission is given through actions instead of words). Authority can also refer to the power of a government agency or the weight of a legal decision used to support an argument.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Naked authority is a type of authority where the principal delegates power to an agent solely for their benefit, without giving any consideration to the agent. This authority can be revoked by the principal at any time.

Example: A homeowner hires a gardener to maintain their lawn. The homeowner gives the gardener the authority to purchase gardening tools and supplies as needed. However, the homeowner does not give the gardener any compensation or benefit for purchasing the tools. This is an example of naked authority.

This example illustrates that the gardener has the power to purchase tools, but they do not have any legal right to keep the tools or use them for their own benefit. The homeowner can revoke the gardener's authority at any time, and the gardener must return any tools or supplies purchased with the homeowner's money.

I mean, idk how it's possible to end birth right citizenship without amending the constitution because to me the 14th amendment is pretty clear about it.
ross ulbricht tried to hire a hitman to kill 5 people

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: That might have been an FBI agent. It was most likely him and he was most likely doing it to retrieve stolen funds that corrupt FBI agents stole, but yeah moral gray area but me personally, cool with hitmen. It's not like it is uncommon to hire hitmen. I don't think the action itself is necessarily wrong but the intent behind it can be.

Like, Boeing whistblowers being killed by hitmen = wrong but a guy hiring hitmen to retrieve stolen funds = good to me.

@Dkk: Yeah, for sure. My guess is it'll go to SCOTUS and it'll be 8-1 or 7-2, saying that EO was unconstitutional.
