I don't understand why anyone would think corruption would be an issue. Trump the God seizing control of another country's oil reserves, dictating who can buy the oil, and skimming money off for an off-shore account? What could go wrong?

Trump's Venezuela oil sell-off sparks corruption concerns

WASHINGTON, DC – In the weeks since the United States snatched Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, the Trump administration has been selling the country's oil stash, netting millions of dollars and prompting concerns from lawmakers and industry insiders about corruption.

Those concerns will likely surface on Jan. 28 when Secretary of State Marco Rubio testifies before a Senate committee about the Trump administration's ongoing involvement in Venezuela.

Trump aims to get Venezuela's oil flowing to American companies, and says the United States will control the proceeds from those sales. Venezuelan oil is already flowing into refineries in Houston, Trump told the New York Post in a Jan. 24 interview.

"Let’s put it this way, they don’t have any oil. We take the oil," he said.
