Jack Reed: “The amount of resources devoted to the Army continue to decrease.”

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.

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

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