Original Note:
The President cannot declare or conduct acts of war without Congress. The U.S. Constitution, Article I, Section 8, Clause 11, gives Congress sole power to declare war. The War Powers Resolution of 1973 reinforces this. https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/article-1/#article-1-section-8-clause-11 https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?path=/prelim@title50/chapter33&edition=prelim
