    “it’s” means “it is”. The possessive form of “it” is “its”.

    Like: “The administration exceeded its authority by issuing an executive order that actually required a law to be passed.”

    It’s confusing because normally a possessive in English does use apostrophe and s.

      I don’t think thechrismosier is gonna see your correction to something that was probably an autocorrect typo anyway.
