Legislative is congress they make laws and aprove budgets.  Executive enforces law and runs the military, This is the branch the president runs.  Judicial it the american court system and supreme court.  I don' think you'll be able to find it in a newspaper so look it up online.

Legislative: It's Congress, basically. The legislative branch makes the laws. Most other governmental assemblies are also legislative (town councils, etc.)

Executive: The President, his Cabinet, etc. The Executive Branch enforces the laws. This would also include police, FBI, CIA, etc.

Judicial: Interprets the laws. This would be the court system, from district courts to the Supreme Court,
