Often Congress is controlled by the same party the president belongs to, so they give the president more freedom to do what he wants to do. The Justice Department is part of the executive branch, so unless the Congress conducts its own investigations, the president can get around the law without much protest.
The president also controls the military and can order military action that is hard to get out of, so Congress lets it go and pays for it.

The Judicial Branch can rule on the constitutionality of laws. The Executive Branch appoints important judges. The appointments have to be approved by the Legislative Branch.
