The Ancients and the Recess Appointments Clause

Certainly, the ancients understood the difference between an officer and an acting officer. See, e.g., 5 Livy: From the Founding of the City (trans. B.O. Foster, reprint 1982):
   Nearly all the annalists state that Fabius was dictator in his campaign against Hannibal; Coelius even writes that he was the first to be created dictator by the people. But Coelius and the rest forget that only the consul Gnaeus Servilius, who was then far away in his province of Gaul, had the right of naming a dictator. It was because the nation, appalled by their great disaster, could not put up with so long a delay that resort was had to the popular election of an acting dictator.
Id. at book 22, ch. 31, at 307. Furthermore, the editor explains: “the erroneous impression that Fabius was in 217 formally elected dictator, whereas he was in fact invested with the powers of a dictator but not with the actual title.” Id. at 307 n.2. Similar considerations may apply to recess appointees. See U.S. Const. art. II, § 2, cl. 3 (“The President shall have Power to fill up all Vacancies that may happen during the Recess of the Senate, by granting Commissions which shall expire at the End of their next Session.”).

The above is from: Seth Barrett Tillman, The 1792 Madison-to-Pendleton Letter: A Time for Reconsideration, Reflection, and Response? (Feb. 5, 2020), <https://ssrn.com/abstract=3531075>.

My name is Moses Escobar. I made a promise to tell others the wonderful work of he who brought my ex girlfriend back to me. He is doctor OAZIZA who is a spell doctor and was able to bring back my ex. My ex left me the very day she met her friend in my place, of which, unknowingly to her, I had nothing to do with her. She grew furious at the very sight of her friend and I was confused if she was initially mad with her. Days into weeks and weeks into months, my ex girlfriend did not speak a word to me as she went away. What was I to do? That was how i contacted doctor OAZIZA on the Internet who after some procedures and progress, brought back my ex. Words are not enough to express my feelings and what doctor OAZIZA has done for me. He really lifted a heavy load off my chest. To all those out there, please, don't think your situation is too primitive or too hard and complicated for anyone to understand. Contact doctor OAZIZA and find joy once again, contact him on;  droazizaspiritualspelltemple@gmail.com  you also talk to him on whatsapp Via +2349064851206

Hello everyone this is a testimony of how a man named Dr Sanbola gave me the reason to be happy again.

I was having small penis and weak erection problem. I can't even make love with my girlfriend for 7 minutes and my penis was just too small a full grown up man like me having 4 inches penis and to worsen it i can't even last more than 3 minutes in bed, it was really a shame to me. I came across Mr Williams testifying on how Dr Sanbola save him from shame too, so I decided to give a try to his products. So I talk with him he told me that all everything will be alright that my penis will increase after he is true with what he was about to do. At first I thought it was a joke but in less than a week after taking some of his products my penis increased from 4 inches to 7 inches and I started lasting in bed for 30 minutes. So i called him and told him about it he told me that it was just the beginning that I will also last longer than that.

As I am talking with you now my girlfriend can now enjoy me in bed.

you can contact him for more information's. you can contact him on his email : (adrsikama@gmail.com)

Or you can also contact him on what's app :( +2347011451611).

Do you understand there's a 12 word sentence you can say to your crush... that will trigger deep feelings of love and impulsive appeal for you buried within his heart?

That's because deep inside these 12 words is a "secret signal" that fuels a man's impulse to love, treasure and guard you with all his heart...

12 Words Will Trigger A Man's Love Response

This impulse is so hardwired into a man's brain that it will drive him to work better than ever before to make your relationship the best part of both of your lives.

In fact, fueling this influential impulse is so important to getting the best ever relationship with your man that once you send your man one of the "Secret Signals"...

...You will instantly find him expose his soul and heart to you in a way he never experienced before and he will see you as the only woman in the galaxy who has ever truly appealed to him.
