"Trump held a press conference Saturday to inform Americans of his actions in Venezuela and intention of running the country until he finds a suitable replacement for Maduro. This is insane. What the hell are we doing? Moulton said on CNN. I mean, we've got a lot of problems in America today, and invading, occupying, running Venezuela does not solve any of them. This is illegal. It's unjustified."
"Moulton continued: Let's let's recall that every step of the way, he's lied about what he's doing. He said that he's not doing regime change. This is exactly what he's done. He said this war was about the drugs. I think we all know that it's not going to stop drugs. He first said it was about fentanyl, then it turns out fentanyl doesn't come from Venezuela."
President Donald Trump held a press conference announcing military action in Venezuela and stated intention to run the country until a replacement for Nicolas Maduro is found. Rep. Seth Moulton called the operation insane, illegal, unjustified, and contrary to U.S. national interests, arguing invading, occupying, and running Venezuela solves none of America's problems. Moulton criticized the lack of a plan and highlighted contradictions in stated motives, noting claims that the campaign targeted drugs and fentanyl are false or misleading and that Venezuelan cocaine primarily goes to Europe. Moulton accused Trump and allies of repeatedly lying and suggested a possible motive of seizing oil.
