It would seem to follow that the executive’s power to run has limits itself. If the legislative has the power to create an entity and the executive runs that entity at such minimal function that the entity effectively doesn’t exist, that usurps the legislative of their creation powers. You could tarpit any agency they establish. The power to run still means you must run the agency in good faith.

I don't disagree with that. But what's discussed in the article--exercising control over grants--is squarely within the domain of running, rather than abolishing.
