Rand Paul says Venezuelan operation was ‘an act of war’

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) promised on Tuesday that he would vote for a bill to curb President Donald Trump’s war powers in light of the recent operation in Venezuela.

Paul appeared on Fox Business’s Mornings With Maria Bartiromo days after U.S. troops attacked Caracas, Venezuela, and captured former Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores. Before this attack, the Senate was gearing up to vote on a resolution to return war powers back to Congress, particularly when it came to groups designated as foreign terrorist organizations.
