Jack Reed: “Without...healthy dialog within the Congress and the administration, we're not going to be as effective as we should be.”

When President Trump cuts military exercises to flatter a dictator or punishes South Korea for declining to join a war he started, all of our allies – and adversaries – think that America’s commitments are negotiable.

The President has waged this war without public support or congressional consent, and it is far past time for accountability.

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.
