Friday on C-SPAN’s “Ceasefire,” Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) stated the Trump administration was appearing like Russian President Vladimir Putin by “putting innocents within the Caribbean.”
Host Dasha Burns stated, “We’re speaking about Venezuela — these strikes are simply a part of a broader coverage in the direction of Venezuela. The president this week stated that he’s contemplating land strikes in Venezuela. They might be imminent. There’s this rigidity that we’ve seen play out all through this primary 12 months of the administration of the chief department versus the legislative department, who does what on the subject of tariffs and on the subject of battle and peace? Congressman Khanna, on the problem of Venezuela, how a lot is Congress being not noted right here?:
Khanna stated, “We must always not have a regime change battle. I imply, the American folks voted for Trump as a result of he stated he didn’t need regime change or limitless wars.”
He continued, “On the query of the Secretary of Protection, I’d help Consultant Bacon to be the Secretary of Protection.”
Khanna added, “Consultant Bacon would take the legislation significantly. He understands the consequence of putting innocents within the Caribbean, that that provides license to Xi Jinping or Putin to say it doesn’t matter what the principles of legislation are or what guidelines of battle are. This isn’t the best way America does enterprise. We’re completely different right here. We comply with the principles. That is the best way Putin acts, this possibly the best way Xi Jinping acts. I would like somebody there that I can belief even when I disagree with them that they’ll comply with the Structure and the rule of legislation.”
