Explanation:

• "By vetoing executive actions after they have been taken": Veto power is with the President (executive), not Congress, so incorrect.
• "By having the Department of Homeland Security investigate the executive branch": DHS is part of the executive branch, so it can't investigate its own branch for Congress, incorrect.
• "By requesting that a support agency review an executive agency": Congress can request agencies like GAO (support agency) to review executive agencies, correct.
• "By requiring the submission of reports from agencies": Congress can mandate executive agencies to submit reports for oversight, correct.
• "By controlling the budgets of executive agencies": Congress holds the power of the purse, controlling executive agencies' budgets to limit power, correct.
• "By having a 'no confidence' vote and forcing a new presidential election": The US system doesn't have "no confidence" votes for the President, and presidential elections are set by law, not this mechanism, incorrect.
