In a dramatic U.S. Senate hearing, Republican Senator Rand Paul put Secretary of State Marco Rubio on the defensive with a chilling hypothetical: “What if Trump is kidnapped like Nicolas Maduro?” Paul’s question — asking whether capturing a U.S. president would be considered an act of war — ignited one of the most explosive exchanges of the session as lawmakers debated America’s controversial military operation in Venezuela and the broader implications of U.S. foreign policy. Rubio defended the Trump administration’s actions to remove Maduro, calling the operation justified and legal, but Paul’s stark challenge highlighted rising backlash and deep divisions in Congress over the use of military force and regime-change tactics. This full video captures the raw confrontation that has shaken Washington and put global eyes on the debate.
