That’s no way to run a legislative branch. We don’t react to threats of a tyrannical executive branch. The House and Senate set the policy and the executive carry it out...anything else needs a court challenge.

I know this is antiquated thinking, but it worked pretty well the previous 2+ centuries.

Makes one wonder what dirt the NSA (controlled by the executive branch I think) has on congress....

I agree.

At the very least, Rubio shows a complete misunderstanding or lack of respect for the separation of powers.

He's just going to roll over and die if Obama oversteps his bounds. Pretty gutless.
