Maduro Arrest: Congressional Power Abdication Heightened by US Action
President Donald Trump’s actions, including the reported arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, have escalated his disregard for Congressional authority and expanded executive power. This move could result in a passive response or outright support from the Republican-led Capitol, further consolidating Trump’s power. Democrats are aiming to counteract this by initiating a war powers vote in the Senate to challenge Trump’s actions. The implications of this power grab could have substantial global consequences.
