The executive order is just about as good as the paper it is written on. If the order is against laws all ready in existence it goes to the courts. If it is against the constitution it goes to the courts. Perfect example of this is the recent Immigration orders of Trump. Those are now in federal court and the judicial branch has gone into action barring enforcement. Some of his executive orders have been pure nonsense. He did one on making a new holiday, but unless congress acts that is the end of that. Trump's repealing of regulations is much more dangerous and as of last week he had repealed 90 regulations.

How is power distributed in different forms of government?

In a totalitarian government, the dictator (often called a tyrant) has total power. He/She has the highest authority in the government. In a monarchy, it is Parliament that has highest authority. Yes, the King or Queen answers to someone else. In a republic and/or democracy, the politicians listen to the people of the country, and the senate or congress has the highest authority. I know what you are thinking, "But the president has the highest, that is why he/she is president." Trust me, the president has to listen to Congress. Congress can veto a president's veto, which mean that it has higher authority in the government. In an anarchy, no one has power. It's just mass chaos and disorder.

Items that can not be taxed by congress?

There are very few specific things that can legally be taxed by the federal government. The specific taxes that Congress may lay and collect includes tariffs, import duties, and some taxes on federally-connected wages and income, but only for federal workers and those who invested in federal instruments. Congress has unlimited taxation authority in the sense that it can make a budget and then send each State a bill for its portion of the bill based on census, but for specific and direct taxes, the Constitution provides very little authority to Congress.
