Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch said Americans need to pay more attention to the “separation of powers” in order to ensure that our freedoms continue to endure.

Gorsuch made the comments on Tuesday during a rare interview with “Fox & Friends“ where he discussed his new book ”A Republic If You Can Keep It,“ the importance of being faithful to the original meaning of the Constitution, and why paying attention to the concept of ”separation of powers"—a doctrine under constitutional law where the executive, legislative, and judicial branches are kept separate—is essential to protecting American people’s rights.
