Investigate the Venezuela Oil Deal and Preserve All Records

Investigate Pete Hegseth's August 30 Venezuela oil deal and demand the immediate preservation of every record connected to it before anything disappears. Two men Hegseth signed that deal with appear in a 2012 email about a secret Orinoco oil deal, referenced as EFTA02011784, that also included Jeffrey Epstein. That is not a coincidence worth ignoring. Questions about this deal already exist, and the Epstein connection makes the paper trail more urgent, not less. Every contract, communication, and internal memo tied to the August 30 agreement must be preserved now. Demand a full records hold and a transparent accounting of who these signatories are, what their prior relationship to Epstein's network was, and what the United States got out of this deal.
