The Continental Navy was created by George Washington in 1775 to protect the American colonies from attacks by the British. At the end of the Revolutionary War, the Continental Navy was disbanded. However, American merchant ships were under continuous attacks by North African pirates so the Department of the Navy was created by Congress in April 1798. Also, after the American Revolution, the British refused to leave American territory along the Great Lakes and continued to attack American merchant ships. This led to the War of 1812.

Another power to add to the list would be: Deciding the legality of executive orders.
An example would be Executive Order 13769, which was titled, "Protecting the Nation from Foreign Terrorist Entry into the United States." President Donald Trump signed this order on January 27, 2017, in the first weeks of his presidency. Commonly called the "travel ban," this order suspended travel to the United States from a number of countries with a majority Muslim population. The order immediately was challenged in the courts as unconstitutional. The Trump administration was compelled to replace Executive Order 13769 with a revised version that it hoped would stand up to court challenges, Executive Order 13780, signed in March, 2017.
The correct answer is thinks for themselves.
The Enlightenment was a time period in which political philosophers re-examined government structures and the rights of citizens. In this era, many individuals like John Locke, Thomas Paine, Voltaire, etc. questioned the traditional forms of government used in Europe.
These individuals discussed the rights of the citizens and the limits that government should have on infringing upon those rights. This helps to spark a movement where people think critically about the government, the structure of society, and the decisions the government makes.
