The incomplete constitution


Who has the power, under the constitution, to abrogate treaties?

To fire ambassadors and the other federal officials named by the president?

Do they hold office for life?

Is that why it is customary - though certainly not constitutionally required - for them all to resign when the term of the president who appointed them expires?

Are these powers reserved, under the 10th Amendment, to the states?

Questions for sticklers for the text like Scalia.

The old faker.
