There are three branches of government: Executive, Judicial and Legislative.

If the Executive is tearing down our Constitution, why are the two other branches quiet and not doing something about it?

There seems to be a dictatorship by consent.

You have accurately described the 3 branches of the FEDERAL government. The constitution describes the 3 branches of STATES and the FED GOV. We had best start to reassert those other oft unmentioned ones or only the fed gov will have any meaningful power.

I meant to say that the constitution describes the 3 branches of goivernment within our Federalist system as WE the PEOPLE, the STATES and the FED GOV. We had best begin to reassert the oft unmentioned other two or only the FED GOV will have any meaningful power.

“why are the two other branches quiet and not doing something about it?”

I heard Pete Sessions respond to that question yesterday:
He said Congress wanted to address all the unconstitutional executive orders but know that Reid won’t give the issues the time of day in the Senate.

I say to Congress: DO YOUR JOB! Otherwise, you are in agreement with your silence!

Yes.

And political correctness has truly become tyranny with manners.

He is not touched because he is of the untouchable, protected class.

Check here to see why that is wrong.

Oklahoma State Senator explains the real three branches of government. The first branch is The People.

I can’t stop thinking about this. Where is the opposition to this revolutionary coup? Why are they all silent? So many crimes have been committed, atrociously unconstitional acts - what to speak of massive election fraud and an ineligible president.

Where are they? Are they on board/just greedy/sickening cowards, all of them?

Seems to me that you answered your own question.
