JOHN LUCAS: Virginia’s Junior Senator Flaunts His Historical Ignorance: The Monroe Doctrine Put America First So the Dems Hate It. “In short, Venezuela was a massive money machine and power base for our enemies and a vehicle for continued efforts to attack U.S. interests. And we now see the same level of hysteria from Democrats about it that we saw when they lost their graft from USAID. . . .

Remember that when they say anything.”
