Answer:

Explanation:

The U.S. System of Checks and Balances

In addition to this separation of powers, the framers built a system of checks and balances designed to guard against tyranny by ensuring that no branch would grab too much power

EX- is that the president can veto any bill passed by Congress, but a two-thirds vote in Congress can override the veto. Other examples include: The House of Representatives has sole power of impeachment, but the Senate has all power to try any impeachment.

Answer: Benedict Arnold

Explanation:

Benedict Arnold made a name for himself in the American Revolution for the wrong reason of being a traitor. After pledging loyalty to and fighting for the American cause, he switched sides and fought for the British against the people he had once led.

Arnold claimed that he was disrespected in the American army because other officers usually took the credit for his operations. He was also accused of corruption and when investigated it was found that he had borrowed heavily from Congress to fund a lavish lifestyle.

After marrying a woman with British connections, he made plans to defect and surrender West Point in New York to the British but this plan was discovered whereupon he fled to the British and upon joining them, led battles against the Americans.
