This episode examines growing concerns over the expansion of presidential military authority after the President publicly suggested he could launch military action in Venezuela without approval from Congress. The Constitution gives Congress the sole power to declare war, but this move signals a shift toward unilateral executive control. If left unchecked, it could permanently weaken congressional oversight and allow future presidents to use military force without accountability, changing the balance of power in the United States.
