We are a country whose Constitution, according to the Supreme Court, gives our own presidents immunity for crimes committed while in office, but we will prosecute presidents of other countries for alleged crimes and invade them to execute arrest warrants.

The Constitution is clear:
Congress has the power and responsibility to authorize the use of military force and declare war. Congress has a duty of oversight. Congress must serve as a check, not a rubber stamp to the President.
On these counts, Congress has failed.

Both @ryangrim & @RepThomasMassie point to right-wing pro-Israel billionaire Paul Singer’s recent purchase of CITGO as motivation for their takeover of Venezuelan oil, as he stands to make billions on a distressed asset a judge forced into his hands.

How does an entire administration not understand this basic reality? Venezuelan oil is not profitable.
Heavy crude takes years to extract profitably. It requires massive upfront investment, specialized infrastructure, refineries configured for heavy oil, long timelines, and political stability.

Trump’s team leaked a classified Venezuela war plan.
Marco Rubio admitted it on TV.
The NYT and WaPo withheld it to protect U.S. troops.
The press showed more responsibility than the administration.
