Yes, the president does have the power to veto but congress can over power it
The Reorganization Act of 1939 allowed the President the freedom to reorganize the presidential staff and the executive branch. It also created the new role of Executive Office of the President.
The first example is how congress checks the President: congress has to approve his cabinet appointments, Supreme Court appointees, and treaties. The President checks congress by having veto power over bills that they have passed.
With executive privilege, the president is allowed to overstep congressional authority, and not answer to Congress's efforts to question his or her actions.

Some believe that executive privilege is a fallacy, and that congressional approval is absolute.

According to current laws (and this should be in the Constitution as well), the Executive Branch, specifically the President of the United States, is allowed the 'power of pardon' (the ability to grant pardons).
According to the Constitution of the United States, the President cannot write legislation, or impose taxes upon the people. Congress is where these powers lay and once passed by both Houses of Congress the President can sign the legislation or veto it. In recent years, the President has been taking some of this power away from Congress and issuing legislation through Executive Orders. Executive Orders is an allowed power given to the President to take action required immediately necessary due to items such as Acts of War or Natural Disasters when Congress is not in session or could not be gathered quick enough to take action. This was done at a time when it took weeks to cross the country but has been taken as an act to bypass Congress when the action would no pass through Congress using the Constitutional methods.
