This new Reuters report is stunning.
A week before the U.S. captured Venezuela's leader, JD Vance reportedly met at a private Montana ski club with John Addison, an oil trader who had given $300,000 to help elect Vance to the Senate in 2022. Vance allegedly asked how fast Venezuela's oil could be sold if America took control of it.
Both men deny the meeting.
Flight records show their planes parked together that day.
Two days after the Venezuela operation, Energy Secretary Chris Wright called Addison and offered his company, Vitol, the job of selling Venezuela's oil. There was no public bidding. Vitol and one rival have since made hundreds of millions of dollars.
Addison and his wife also gave $7 million to help elect Trump, and he now chairs a board advising Secretary Wright.
Congress has a duty to act.
We should bring Secretary Wright, Vitol, and Addison in to testify under oath. We should demand the phone records, emails, and flight logs. We should find out whether anyone got a heads-up about a military operation. And we should require open, competitive bidding before any company profits from our foreign policy.
If nothing was wrong, let’s see the records.

We just lost to a team that has no viable path to a bowl game, and yet we couldn’t be prepared enough to put ourselves in a very real position for our own bowl.
That’s inexcusable.
@TheChrisHart It’s so annoying! We’ve yet to be outclassed in a game based on pure talent and ability. We just can’t get out of our own way with penalties and turnovers.
It's more than a new building. It's a new level of opportunity for our Chants! ⛳️
