about NSA Aaron Burr twat Treason-

wife anon did a quick look and found this interesting nugget -

Trying to escape to Spanish territory, Burr was arrested and returned for trial to Richmond, Virginia, the site of the nearest federal court that could hear a trial for treason. Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court John Marshall presided in his capacity as circuit judge for Virginia. (At that time, circuit courts had original jurisdiction to try treason cases; the Supreme Court has never had that power.) Marshall acquitted Burr on the ground that acts of treason against the United States by definition require the existence of a state of war (Article III, Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution).

he got off the charges due to we were NOT at war at the time.

I know we have the "war on drugs" and the "war on terror" but are we actually "AT WAR???" technically? has it actually been declared? how do I find this information?
