BUSTED LIVE: Chris Murphy’s Venezuela Narrative Collapses on CNN

Democrat Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) stunned viewers on CNN’s State of the Union after claiming that the ouster of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro “has nothing to do with American national security” and that Venezuela poses no threat to the United States.

Murphy went so far as to argue that Venezuelan cartel drugs “go to Europe,” not the U.S., dismissing concerns about cocaine trafficking, violent gang members, and cartel influence — despite the Biden administration previously placing a $25 million bounty on Maduro’s arrest.

During the interview with Dana Bash, Murphy insisted Venezuela is not flooding America with criminals or drugs and claimed President Trump’s actions were nothing more than a corrupt oil grab for Wall Street elites. The White House swiftly responded, blasting Murphy as a “buffoon” and pointing to innocent Americans murdered by gang members tied to the Maduro regime.

Things got even worse for Murphy when CNN confronted him live on air with his own 2019 op-ed explicitly calling for Maduro to be removed — exposing a stunning reversal that detonated his current talking points.

Meanwhile, Secretary of State Marco Rubio laid out the real stakes, citing Venezuela’s deep ties to Russia, China, Iran, cartel networks, and transnational crime, and why regaining control of the Western Hemisphere is a vital U.S. national security priority.

Watch as Chris Murphy’s narrative collapses in real time — and the hypocrisy is exposed on CNN.
