U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson pushed back sharply against claims that President Trump has crossed a legal or military red line. Speaking as criticism grows on Capitol Hill, Johnson insisted the United States is not at war, has no troops on Venezuelan soil, and is not occupying the country in any form. He rejected calls for congressional authorization, arguing that the War Powers Act does not apply to the recent actions. His remarks come as tensions escalate and lawmakers clash over whether the Trump administration has overstepped its authority.
