Jack Reed: “I believe that China's actions are provocative, increases tensions, and it causes the nations in the region to look to…”

President Trump has been explicit about his desire to extract Venezuela's oil," Reed said in a statement.

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.

While the President and his family accumulate billions of dollars through dubious deals, normal hardworking Americans are struggling just to get by.

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.
