More from #MarcoRubio #Senate hearing on #Venezuela, when #RandPaul is the sane person in the conversation …

PAUL: If a country bombed our air defense missiles, captured & removed our president, & blockaded our country, would that be considered an act of war?

RUBIO: We just don't believe this operation comes anywhere close to the constitutional definition

PAUL: Of course it would be an act of war!

#RandPaul∶ What if a country indicts our president for violating a foreign law, should we extradite him or be okay if they get him by force?

#MarcoRubio∶ We're always going to act in our national interest

Paul∶ What I'm saying is our arguments are empty. It's a ruse. We do what we do because we have the force.

#Massie said the oil was "stolen" & that #Trump cannot "legally create a second #Treasury overseas for his own piggy bank."

"Selling stolen #oil & putting billions of dollars in a bank in #Qatar to be spent without Congressional approval is not Constitutional," Massie wrote on X. "Only #Congress can appropriate money."
