You Sith Lord mind tricks don't work on me buddy.
After last Sunday’s mass shooting in Orlando, which left 50 Americans dead and 53 wounded, President Obama decided to take unilateral action on gun control by signing Executive Order 17103. The new law bans all sales of assault weapons and places a mandatory 30 day waiting period on all firearm sales, regardless of whether the transaction takes place at a gun dealership or gun show.

How was my statement made up in my head if the information came from a page that says abcnews?
that I didn't know the difference between an executive order and and executive action,
You Sith Lord mind tricks don't work on me buddy.
So if my statements were based on information from a source you claim to be fake

There is no Executive Order 17103, or you can't find Executive Order 17103? Misplaced and nonexistent are two different things now aren't they?

So because we can't find it means it doesn't exist...
Executive Orders (EOs) are legally binding orders given by the President, acting as the head of the Executive Branch, to Federal Administrative Agencies. Executive Orders are generally used to direct federal agencies and officials in their execution of congressionally established laws or policies.
Executive Orders do not require Congressional approval to take effect but they have the same legal weight as laws passed by Congress. The President's source of authority to issue Executive Orders can be found in the Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution which grants to the President the "executive Power."
