Last time I checked, only congress can declare a war.

Remind me again when was the last time congress declared war and how many other wars the US was involved in since then.

Do you think this is a good thing?

What specifically?

The fact that congress hasn't been involved in a declaration of war for a very long time.

and the President has complete control over the executive branch to lay off scientists

unrelated nuance then yeah?
