Checks and Balances: The president can veto stuff from congress and congress can override the veto with 2/3 vote. Supreme court can declare things unconstitutional.

Judicial Review: Supreme court can declare things unconstitutional.

Federalism: the theory or advocacy of federal principles for dividing powers between member units and common institutions.
