A Governor making "law" for an "emergency".
The Legislature then suing saying that the Governor can't just make things up forever, that it's their job to make law.
Then the Governor ignoring them?
I know.
Not exactly extermination camp stuff.
But, not exactly Republic/Democracy stuff either.

That's not tyranny. The executive branch isn't the slave of the legislative branch, who isn't the slave of the executive branch. The fact the legislature (and private citizens) *can* sue and that both sides will take their case to the judiciary and abide by the result contraindicate tyranny.
Well, I'm in good company apparently

The legislature makes the law, the executive executes the law that the legislature makes. Just because the legislature has a judicial remedy to the executive attempting to perform legislative functions, doesn’t mean that the executive isn’t usurping authority the constitution has prohibited from him.
What do you call it when a ruler usurps authority which does not belong to them under the law?
The founders were fine with using the word to describe taxation without representation... It’s not like they were being placed on societal house arrest and denied legislative recourse.
