Let the lower courts do the dirty work, then decline to enter the fray.

That's essentially the Congress's approach:

  1. Create bureaucracies, allow them to make rules/regulations which must be obeyed under penalty of law, then wring their hands about executive overreach… even though they could (1) repeal the laws referencing the rules/regulations, (2) dissolve the agencies directly, or (3) utterly deny the agency funding.
  2. Allow the Federal Reserve to make monetary policy, and then when people don't like it and want financial accountability, hide under the fact that the Federal Reserve is private entity.

Legislatures can also make any law beyond the jurisdiction of the courts, which they create and fund.
