【Latest news: The U.S. Secretary of War and Secretary of State are informing Congress about the situation in Venezuela】

On November 5, 2025, Washington time, the Associated Press wrote in a press release:

Senior officials in the Trump administration are briefing legislators (members of Congress) on the situation in Venezuela. As the Trump administration increases its threats against Venezuela, Secretary Marco Rubio and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth are meeting with senior lawmakers responsible for overseeing national security in a secure facility on Capitol Hill.

The Trump administration has faced criticism from Democrats for holding briefings limited to Republicans, but the briefing on Wednesday also included some Democratic lawmakers. Senior congressional leaders and leaders of committees overseeing military, intelligence, and foreign relations were invited.
