There is indeed a sense in which executive orders can, in some circumstances, have the force of law without being law. 

E.g., If a president decides (via executive order) to withhold federal funding from public schools that refuse to install same sex bathrooms, that can have the effect of forcing many to comply, as most such schools desperately need federal funding. (Some schools may nevertheless legally forgo that funding, though.)

BTW, you left the word illegal out before immigration. How Liberal of you.

For some reason we get all soft on crime when the perpetrator is on the inside.  Isn't the inside agent willing to compromise national security for his own gain much worse, here?
