The House Speaker says that President Trump is ensuring “the United States will no longer allow criminal regimes to profit from wreaking havoc and destruction on our country.“
President Donald Trump is meeting with leaders of the majority from the House of Representatives on Tuesday at the Kennedy Center to discuss Operation Absolute Resolve, which captured the Venezuelan dictator and head of the Cartel de Los Soles, Nicolas Maduro, and his wife.
“This was not the kind of mission that you can do congressional notification on,” Secretary of State Marco Rubio said. ”It’s largely a law enforcement function. Remember, at the end of day, at its core, this was an arrest of two indicted fugitives of American justice, and the Department of War supported the Department of Justice in that job.”
House Speaker Mike Johnson stated, “Nicolas Maduro is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans after years of trafficking illegal drugs and violent cartel members into our country — crimes for which he’s been properly indicted in U.S. courts and an arrest warrant duly issued — and today he learned what accountability looks like.”
The speaker continued, “President Trump is putting American lives first, succeeding where others have failed, and under his leadership the United States will no longer allow criminal regimes to profit from wreaking havoc and destruction on our country.”
