Judicial Branch:

The Legislative Branch is able to influence the Judicial branch in two main ways. The first is that the legislative branch oversees the impeachment of any Judge. The second is that the Senate is responsible for holding the hearings and voting to confirm or reject the President's nominees for the judicial branch as part as their "advise and consent power"

Executive Branch:

The Legislative branch is able to influence the executive branch in a number of ways. One is that the legislative branch sets the budget and the legislative agenda. The legislative branch also have oversight authority over the executive and is able to oversee and influence the executive branch's actions that way. Finally, the legislative branch can override the Executive branch's veto if it comes to that and is able to influence the Executive's decision-making if it is known they have the votes to override.
