ICYMI: Rubio: Begging Maduro’s Venezuela for Oil Is Weak

Begging Venezuela’s Maduro for oil is weak. Ramp up US production to undercut Russia
U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL)

… It was just a few short years ago that the world recognized the horrors of [illegitimate narco-dictator Nicolás] Maduro’s Venezuela. And thanks to the leadership of then-President Donald Trump, nearly 60 nations recognized Juan Guaidó as the country’s rightful interim president. 

But now, with soaring global oil prices, President Biden is turning his back on Venezuela’s interim government, those who died fighting for freedom and democracy in Venezuela, and all of those who still suffer under Maduro’s rule.

Joe Biden’s task as president is simple: defend and advance our national interests. But instead of doing that, he is capitulating to narrow partisan pressure and propping up dictatorships around the world. It is a fundamentally flawed approach, one that I hope Congress will address by passing my bill….
