Governance during the U.S. War on Terror reshaped national security and executive authority. Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama expanded executive powers, authorizing surveillance programs, military interventions, and drone strikes.

Controversies over detainee rights and interrogation practices led to landmark Supreme Court rulings, defining the legal boundaries of counterterrorism policy.
