Please point out the Article and Section where the President of the United States is required to telegraph a military action, before it is conducted?

Thanks in advance.

Reagan consulted a bipartisan cadre of congresscritters before the strike occurred. These members instructed Reagan that the bombing was authorized under the WPA.

That’s a very good point! On the other hand, I’d hate to see presidents go on 60-day adventures using the War Powers Act as a cover. Perhaps a select committee of trusted senators should somehow be involved here.
