Joe Borelli Exposes Neera Tanden's False Narrative on Venezuela's Oil Deal

Rep. Joe Borelli pushed back on comments from Neera Tanden regarding President Donald Trump’s announced plan to take and sell 30–50 million barrels of Venezuelan oil. Tanden labeled the situation “plunder” and accused the administration of pursuing oil control, but Borelli noted that the president said the oil will be sold at market price and the money managed in a way that benefits both Venezuelans and Americans - language she omitted in her criticism. The broader policy involves U.S. oversight of previously stranded Venezuelan oil and has been described by officials as part of stabilization efforts following the change in Venezuela’s leadership.
