Have you read the constitution? Click the link below and read it. You might be surprised what you would learn.

Answer 2

No. Under the doctrine of posse comitatus, the U.S. Armed Forces cannot assist civilian law enforcement in keeping the peace (the National Guard can assist if called by the Governor of the state, but that's the only exception to the rule), so the military has no business enforcing laws outside military installations unless there's a safety or National Security concern, e.g., a fighter jet crash. Also, the Commander-in-Chief of the military is the President of the United States, so in essence the military cannot do anything without permission from the President. Did I mention the fact that a majority vote of Congress is required before the U.S. can declare war on another country?

Answer 3

No. The Supreme authority for the military is the President, who is the Commander-in-Chief of the Military. Under him is the Dept. of Defense, then the Secretary of Defense, then the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of the Military Staff. Congress has the authority to declare war and to fund the military through the budget. The President can declare limited wartime actions when necessary for engagement of the military for specific reasons.
