📊 Analysis Synthesis

Executive Order 14155 represents a coordinated effort to consolidate executive power through institutional reorganization, circumvent legislative oversight, and undermine international institutions. While not a direct constitutional violation, the order's unilateral nature and focus on centralized control align with historical patterns of executive overreach. The erosion of multilateral health governance frameworks and establishment of new executive control mechanisms signal a significant threat to democratic norms and institutional checks.
