WASHINGTON, DC – In the weeks since the United States snatched Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, the Trump administration has been selling the country's oil stash, netting millions of dollars and prompting concerns from lawmakers and industry insiders about corruption.

President Donald Trump warned Wednesday that “time is running out” for Iran to negotiate a nuclear deal as a “massive armada,” led by the USS Abraham Lincoln, heads towards the Middle Eastern nation.

Trump on Wednesday revived the threat of military action against Iran and warned “time is running out” for a deal limiting its nuclear program.

During a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing Wednesday, Rubio justified the large-scale strike against the Venezuelan government in early January. The strike involved seizing two Venezuelan vessels and arresting Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife on charges of running an international narco-terrorism operation.

“It’s not acceptable for American citizens to be killed by federal agents for exercising their God-given and constitutional rights to protest their government.”

South Florida exiles applaud Trump for removing Venezuela's dictator, but they're less sure about whether he intends to remove Venezuela's dictatorship — or simply extract its oil.
