Under the War Powers Resolution, the President is required to report to Congress within 48 hours after introducing troops into hostilities or situations where hostilities are imminent. However, the President has 60 days to continue military actions without a declaration of war, with an additional 30 days for the withdrawal of troops. If Congress doesn't authorize the use of military force during this period, the President must cease those operations.

The president can veto any bill passed by Congress. This stops a divided Congress since a 2/3 majority is required to pass the bill over the veto. The president can fail to enforce laws that he does not like. Congress can fight back with impeachment or censure but there are usually serious political costs to such actions, so Congress often does nothing. The president can also use a "carrot and stick" approach to influence individual Congress members.
This amendment specified days for the transfer of power from one president to the next. It also required the Congress to meet on an annual basis. It also provided some succession planning for both the president and the Congress.

A president can veto a bill that the congress passes and sends to him for his signature and he can refuse to sign it (vetoing it). But the president cannot override vetos. The congress can override president's veto by a 2/3 vote.
