>But our government doesn’t have independent branches.

Yes, it does, by the nature of them existing and Congress establishing them. Show me where in the Constitution that they can't do that.

Powers are enumerated in the constitution. So it’s not a question of what the constitution says they can’t do.

It would be strange if congress can designate untouchable officials. Why don’t they just grant themselves office for life?
