In the 21st century how is the noun word "President" defined

 
It is clear from my research that the definition of the noun word President has a direct relationship to the political aspect of the word, all the dictionary websites I found, define this noun word similarly, as both a President of a "Federal Republic" and a "Republic" where the President is a "ceremonial position," in addition to citing this noun word as connoting this noun word to refer to a corporation or company.
However, I've also included the websites Wikipedia and Britannica to cite the historical definitions of the noun word "President" which shows how this noun word has evolved .
I chose this noun word President due to the claims by the opposition to this administration, that the current POTUS is acting like a king, but as can be seen, all the definitions cite the aspect of "being in charge" when defined as the "President of a Federal Republic," with few examples of what the leader of a Federal Republic can do, since this blog offers only words plus meanings information, the scope of the acts of a President of a Federal Republic are not fully cited.
What I've presented proves that this noun word "President" has a vast scope when connoted as the "President" of a Federal Republic when specifically citing the US, and as such, does eliminate the aspect of a point of view to color this word with other definitions.

In 2025 who redefines the noun word "freedom"?

  According to Goggle's AI, in 2025 'freedom' is in the crosshairs of all kinds of issues, for instance:  "In 2025, philosophical differences over the nature and limits of freedom are directly shaping real-world conflicts, policy agendas, and legal challenges across three primary areas: the digital world, political power, and social issues"—as well in the year 2025 regarding concerns about 'freedom', the AI summary says: "The year is marked by debates over whose definition of freedom should be prioritized and enforced, rather than a universal agreement on what freedom means..."
  As usual, merriam-webster's dictionary website brings in the current concerns by the opposition to 47's administration, that all our freedom is undergoing a threat.
  However, I've included oed.com's very thorough overview as to what during the past centuries, has been considered as important about 'freedom'. And additionally, I've included Wikipedia's analysis of the noun word 'freedom' which also offers a succinct purview of what 'freedom' has been defined as in other similar instances.
  Just as I had expected, in 2025, through my research of what seems to be a contentious word, the definition of this noun word 'freedom' entails having a point of view.
  Some say we have politically polarized world, many conceptions are left of center, and many definitions exist in the left of center community with complaints that the current administration is curtailing all our freedoms.
  I have included differing viewpoints.
  Unbiased, means knowing what someone who has an opposite viewpoint is concerned about, which can lead to a 'center POV dialogue', nonetheless, for some, the freedom to produce an App to dox ICE agents is a first amendment right, appropriate no matter the result, for another viewpoint, this is like yelling fire in a crowded building when there is no fire, altogether, the result is the same, 'death' and 'confusion' about first amendment freedoms.

The noun word "activist"

 
       What is the significance of the noun word "activist"?
     Currently, the global world is in a time of change, and unrest, coupled with dissatisfaction with government, as well, economic concerns has produced issues that will bring strong opinions and public protests.
     According the dictionary site merriam-webster.com, an "activist" is someone who takes strong positions, and will actively protest against something that is perceived as wrong, or unjust, and will lend support to those who champion a controversial issue, the list of causes can dovetail with investing, for instance, an activist shareholder who feels the Board of Directors or CEO is taking the company in the wrong direction, additionally, an "activist" takes a strong position about issues that are very political in nature thus attending public protests is a cornerstone activity for such an activist.
     The dictionary.cambridge.org cites an "activist" as someone who believes strongly in social or political change.
     Interestingly,  Britannica.com dictionary cites an "activist as someone who wants social or political change and protests in public demonstrations, which seems to define what is happening now politically, insofar as opposition to the current administration, and the war Israel is waging against HAMAS, which has produced protests in the streets globally by activists who believe Israel shouldn't exist.
     The Wikipedia.org website I've included gives a thorough overview of activism as it exists today, and in other times, remarkably,  activism emerged in 1914 in the political sense, and has thrived ever since.
     I've included 'Judicial activism', which has, especially in 2025, become a successful strategy by the minority party in the USA, to oppose any and all initiatives taken by the current administration, moreover, the current 'Judicial activism' is defined as a Judicial philosophy that goes beyond the law, and cites an action taken by the Executive branch of our Federal system of government as inconsistent with the values of the 'activist Judge" who is hearing the case, however, the ruling will be in support of some societal or other considerations that affords a remedy to benefit the minority political party's message.
     More broadly, the activist judges will issue a ruling based on their own point of view, and Wikipedia.org cites Judicial activism as political in nature and concerns 'separation of powers' as it is considered under our Federal Republic system of government.

The noun words "reapportionment" and "Census" defined for the purpose of Congressional representation and "shadow SCOTUS docket"

 
 In addition to defining the noun words "reapportionment" and "Census" with links to dictionary sites, I found research that gives a thorough informational about the process of "reapportionment" which is not only specific to the United States method, but to other nations, as well.
The correct understanding of these noun words, "reapportionment" and "Census" will help to comprehend why this issue is so misunderstood, and can influence daily life in the USA.
Who represents each state can be a contentious issue, the more seats a political party has in Congress determines who is in control of the majority political party making the laws, which can be the one in opposition to the current administration.
The duly elected President of the USA needs congress to make the laws that will give that administration an edge in accomplishing what the voters elected the POTUS to do, if the reapportionment of Congress is favoring the opposition to the current administration, of course, all sorts of issues can develop, mostly with the current administration, another round of attempts at impeachment, and stalemating any and all attempts of the current administration to accomplish the goals that the voters who put the POTUS in office for 4 years to accomplish what is expected with laws that help that agenda.
 For the noun word "Census" I used a dictionary site, and also a more scholarly site, which explains the legalities that some say are 'ambiguities' in the language of exactly who is a legal citizen of the USA included in the Census count for reapportionment.
 Both political parties Republicans and Democrats have a stake in determining a reapportionment in time for the 2026 midterm elections, and each may use all the Constitutional methods available, including "SCOTUS shadow docket" which my research link to Wikipedia.com has defined, however, my research confirms that who will prevail remains uncertain until SCOTUS takes the case, which will come from the side that activates "Shadow docket".
Legal experts will continue to weigh in as to what happens when via "Shadow docket"  SCOTUS issues a decision as to whether it will take the case, thus temporarily postponing any 2025 action on the issue, perhaps even giving a victory to the side that wants to postpone until after the 2026 elections.
