The fact that it was called a "Department" when it wasn't even technically a department makes me think Congress didn't authorize anything, and went along with it in a dereliction of duty.

The country is run by literal 90-year-olds deferring to whoever is against the other party.

^^^ This right here. In nearly every other job, you refuse to do your job (or worse yet, do the opposite of your job while "on the clock" at work), you're pretty much instantly fired, and sometimes (depending on the severity of your violation) you're even prosecuted.
