How long does a federal judge stay on the bench? According to the U.S. Constitution, most judges of Article III courts enjoy life tenure (the Constitution says they may hold office “during good Behaviour”). As explained below, they may be removed from office by Congress, but that is very rare.
The United States Constitution is clear that only the Federal government can declare war against other nations, as opposed to individual states. It also states that only Congress has the authority to declare war--not the President.
Serves as a leader: what he says, people will follow. Hence why it’s ludicrous for him to suggest ingesting disinfectant.
Commander in chief: Leads the strategy in military
Appoint ambassadors and chairs of cabinets and departments
Influences policy making by using veto power.
Can initiate trade.
Etc.
In every society, the government needs to have what are called police powers. What this means is that the governments need to have the right to uphold the laws. Governments need to have this ability so that they can protect their citizens from others who would seek to prey on them. Without police powers, for example, there is no one to protect us from being murdered or robbed, or otherwise harmed.
The problem is that the government can take away our rights in the process of trying to protect us. For example, let us imagine that the government is worried about drug use. It therefore declares that it has the right to test any person for drug use at any time. It also declares that it has the right to search anyone’s house at any time for evidence of drug manufacture, sale, or use. This would be great for law and order because it would make it much harder to get away with drug crimes, but it would be terrible for our rights.
