The DOJ is literally part of the executive branch

  There is a nomination procedure which requires (?) Congressional confirmation, but Congress has no recourse for obstructive termination of a nominated director by the executive? Isn't that the wolf guarding the hen house; i.e. what the founders expressly intended to prevent?

    The recourse is impeachment.

      With the war powers authorized in the 2000s, there's more than impeachment. Are they American? Where is their birthy certy? (Is there Habeas Corpus for all persons. "You're not even American!") If the executive is totally immune, they wouldn't need to assist a foreign country illegally in order to get Congress to grant them extra power.
