Our Constitution and American values are under assault by the Trump regime. Mike Lawler does nothing. Was the deal you made with Trump worth it, Mikey? The destruction of our way of life AND higher prices for everyone? What a bargain!

STATEMENT FROM CONGRESSMAN GEORGE LATIMER ON TRUMP ADMINISTRATION ACTIONS IN VENEZUELA:

Today, Rep. Latimer issued the following statement:

Today, the President announced his unilateral military action - circumventing congressional authorization - to carry out what he declares is a war. The Constitution establishes three co-equal branches of government for a reason: to ensure a check and balance that prevents one entity from dictating policy for the whole country. As a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, I heard details about this military action at the same time everyone else did. The fact that the Republican leadership in the House is not incensed over the President’s unilateral act of war screams volumes about their lack of fitness to lead both Congress and our nation.

This action does not keep us “safe” from drugs. If that was our top reason, then why did the President pardon the convicted drug trafficker who was President of Honduras who dumped tons of drugs into American homes? This action weakens us with allies around the globe. What moral standing do we lean on now to oppose Russia’s intervention in Ukraine or China’s likely takeover of Taiwan, when we do the same thing for our reasons?

Maduro is a bad guy, who held on to power illegally despite losing the election. But Trump has aligned us with other dictators - if they have friendly relations with Trump.

In the President’s address this afternoon, he admitted the real reason for this illegal military action – control of Venezuela’s oil. That’s why the President did nothing to inform the Congress since we would ask these questions before any action was taken.

Reasonable people can and should discuss what the best strategy moving forward should be, but temporarily taking over Venezuela should not be one of those strategies.

The administration must immediately brief Congress on their plan for stability in Venezuela, their legal justification for these actions, and what America’s role will be in all of this, and Congress must then act appropriately according to our nation's laws and the constitution.
