Secretary of State Marco Rubio insisted Sunday there is "not a war" with Venezuela despite the stunning U.S. raid that captured Nicolás Maduro and President Trump's announcement that America will "run" the country.
- Rubio said the U.S. was instead "at war against drug trafficking organizations."
Why it matters: By framing Saturday's operation as law enforcement, not war, the administration argues it doesn't need Congress' permission to bomb a military base and capture a head of state.
