> Congressional power of the purse is secure

Which reality do you live in?

In my reality, POTUS is doing everything he can to grind down Congress's power of the purse.

He's actively pressuring Fed policy, which at its most extreme gives the executive a blank check as it can force the Fed to purchase treasuries, filling the executive's coffers directly.

At the same time, they're arguing that pocket rescissions give them the right to avoid spending any individual dollar they do not wish to spend, even if Congress has allocated it.

Tell me what gives you confidence that the power of the purse is secure?
