Jayapal claimed the mission is about “oil” and regime change.

“You can see there’s no discussion about the plan for the plan after,” she said. “Donald Trump can’t run America. Now he wants to go run Venezuela while the American people can’t afford healthcare, can’t afford groceries. This is not what the American people want. This is not what is constitutional. This is not what is legal.”
