Is that your question?
In Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer, SCOTUS ruled:
"..In the framework of our Constitution, the President’s power to see that the laws are faithfully executed refutes the idea that he is to be a lawmaker. The Constitution limits his functions in the lawmaking process to the recommending of laws he thinks wise and the vetoing of laws he thinks bad. And the Constitution is neither silent nor equivocal about who shall make laws which the President is to execute…. The Constitution did not subject this lawmaking power of Congress to presidential … supervision or control.… The Founders of this Nation entrusted the law making power to the Congress alone in both good and bad times..."
In 2014 SCOTUS ruled in Utility Air Regulatory Group v. EPA:
“The power of executing the laws … does not include a power to revise clear statutory terms that turn out not to work in practice.”
