Last time I checked, kidnappings by military force were contrary to international law. Can anyone credibly say that this wreckless unilateral action reflects anything more than presidential ego? That America’s reputation and world trust are improved by it?

The Senate must demand proof from President Trump that this action in Venezuela is justified — say, within seven days. Assuming no compliance, it’ll need to open hearings and, after that, impeachment proceedings.

Eugene V. Torisky Jr.
