Jack Reed: “Countering Russia's malign activities is a matter of national security.”

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.

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.

A blatant abuse of power and taxpayer dollars.

This measure is a tribute to Senator Graham’s tenacious, bipartisan work in support of Ukraine.
