Unlawful actions against Venezuela & Greenland are weakening U.S. power
To: Pres. Trump
From: A verified voter in Marquette, MI
January 18
Your actions toward Venezuela and Greenland are reckless and damaging to U.S. interests. They undermine the Constitution, weaken America’s standing, and create unnecessary risk.
Using military force against Venezuela without clear congressional authorization is a violation of the law and a dangerous expansion of executive power. Acting without Congress weakens accountability, invites backlash at home, and signals to the world that U.S. commitments are unstable.
At the same time, threats and pressure directed at Greenland disrespect national sovereignty and strain critical alliances. This coercion drives our partners away, strengthens adversaries, and leaves the United States more isolated and less secure.
Real strength comes from lawful authority, disciplined restraint, and reliable alliances. I urge you to reverse course, provide full transparency, and operate within constitutional limits before you cause any further lasting damage.
