It is far past time for President Trump to recognize the lasting harm that Pete Hegseth is inflicting on the Department of Defense.

President Trump’s effort to turn the U.S. military into an investor in Venezuelan oil is a blatant abuse of power and taxpayer dollars.

His administration removed Nicolás Maduro from power, threw its weight behind the unelected leadership that replaced Maduro, and is now attempting to use U.S. military assets and taxpayer-backed financing to boost a private oil venture.

Six months later, not a single objective has been achieved. Indeed, he has weakened our position in the Middle East and the world significantly.
