[Wikiedia] Proclamation of Neutrality https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proclamation_of_Neutrality The Proclamation of Neutrality was a formal announcement issued by U.S. President George Washington on April 22, 1793, declaring the nation neutral in the conflict between France and Great Britain. It threatened legal proceedings against any American providing assistance to any country at war.
Background News that Revolutionary France had declared war on Great Britain in February 1793, and with this declaration that France, by the country's own volition,
Proclamation Cabinet debate Washington's cabinet members agreed that neutrality was essential; the nation was too young and its military was too small to risk any sort of engagement with either France or Britain. Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson, in particular, saw in this question, as well as in the other twelve, the influence of the Federalists - his political rivals; yet he too agreed a proclamation was in order, though perhaps not an official one.
Pacificus-Helvidius debates The proclamation started a war of pamphlets between Hamilton (writing for the Federalists), and Madison (writing for the Jeffersonian/Republicans). In his seven essays, written under the nom de plume "Pacificus", Hamilton dealt with objections to the proclamation. Among these were:
*The decree was, in fact, constitutional; for while Congress has the sole right to declare war, it is "the duty of the executive to preserve peace till war is declared."[3] *The Neutrality Proclamation did not violate the United States' defensive alliance with France, as the Jeffersonians were claiming. The treaty, Hamilton pointed out, was a defensive alliance and did not apply to offensive wars, "and it was France that had declared war upon other European powers", not the other way around.[4] *By siding with France the United States would have left itself open to attacks within American borders by the governments of Britain and Spain stirring up "numerous Indian tribes" influenced by these two governments.
Writing under the name "Helvidius", Madison's five essays showed the animosity that had evolved with the two political factions. He attacked Federalists, and Hamilton in particular, and anyone who supported the Neutrality Proclamation as secret monarchists, declaring: "Several features with the signature of Pacificus were [as of] late published, which have been read with singular pleasure and applause by the foreigners and degenerate citizens among us, who hate our republican government and the French Revolution." 0250名無しさん@1周年2018/07/12(木) 21:51:39.99ID:5Pbn9Tj+0 [Human Events Powerful Conservative Voices] Derek Khanna Wednesday Sep 4, 2013 12:52 PM Framers: No, Obama cannot attack Syria without Congress http://humanevents.com/2013/09/04/framers-no-the-president-cannot-attack-syria-without-congress-say-so/ [This article first appeared at Politix.com.]
It's well known that the power to declare war is left with Congress in Article 1, Section 8 of America's constitution. With that in mind, how can Obama unilaterally attack Syria without congressional approval? The answer is, he can't, not without an imminent threat to the US, and that becomes especially clear when you look at what America's founders had to say about war powers. Washington, Madison, Jefferson, Adams, and Hamilton all agreed that the power to declare war belongs absolutely to Congress, and not to presidents. In the wake of Assad's alleged use of chemical weapons in Syria, it has been reported that the White House was planning on responding with military force without congressional approval. But as congressional opposition began to mount, and a vote in the UK failed, then President Obama ultimately decided to involve Congress in the decision. All the while, the White House and Secretary of State John Kerry have maintained that the president has the authority to use force with or without the approval of Congress, and even if Congress were to vote down approval. (This is in significant contrast to in the UK where once the parliament voted down military action the Prime Minister acknowledged that he could not act.)
In the arena of war powers, Congress's constitutional role is not merely one of oversight. *** The US cannot initiate a war without affirmative action from Congress, other than in exigent circumstances that may require immediate action (if the US is attacked). Congress is not fulfilling its constitutionally-appointed role if it merely assumes an oversight position, with a select few Congress members being informed of ongoing military activities either through statute or through informal practices. Failure to act is itself the equivalent of a constitutionally enabled congressional "veto." As explained by Alexander Hamilton, a strong Federalist: The plain meaning [of the power to declare war] is, that it is the peculiar and exclusive province of Congress, when the nation is at peace to change that state into a state of war; whether from calculations of policy, or from provocations, or injuries received: in other words, it belongs to Congress only, to go to War.
*** Perhaps the best source to understand the Congressional role in war-power vis-a-vis the President can be found in the Pacificus-Helvidius debates of Alexander Hamilton against James Madison. While debating the Constitutionality of President Washington's decision to issue a statement of neutrality in regard to ongoing hostilities between France and Britain, these two founders provide significant depth to understanding what was meant by the Constitutional text. While the founders clearly didn't agree, Alexander Hamilton was the federalist in favor of the most executive power, for that reason quotations by him were chosen above. To even among the most federalist oriented of our founding fathers, Congress's role in war-making was much more significant than mere oversight of the executive.

Legacy On April 24, 1906, Jones's coffin was installed in Bancroft Hall at the United States Naval Academy, Annapolis, Maryland, following a ceremony in Dahlgren Hall, presided over by President Theodore Roosevelt who gave a lengthy tributary speech.

[NewYorkTimes]June 19, 2018 Governors Refuse to Send National Guard to Border, Citing Child Separation Practice https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/19/us/national-guard-trump-children-immigration.html Governors from at least eight states have announced that they would withhold or recall National Guard troops from efforts to secure the United States’ border with Mexico, as the debate over the Trump administration’s practice of separating children from their parents at the southern border seeped into state political battles in an election year.
Many of the governors opposed to sending troops were Democrats, from states including New York, North Carolina and Virginia. But two Republican governors who face re-elections this fall in Maryland and Massachusetts also reversed their plans. 0286名無しさん@1周年2018/07/12(木) 22:22:34.07ID:Y3Q3z12x0 防衛費をGDPの2%に上げるってオバマ政権時のときに約束した時は誰も批判せずに その約束をちゃんと守れよと言ったトランプを批判するなんてどう考えてもおかしいだろ?
