military operation that captured former leader Nicolas Maduro and his wife earlier this month.

Secretary Rubio highlighting the administration's progress thus far in improving relations with Venezuela, urging senators to be patient with the rate of progress.

News of the Maduro raid did catch many in Washington and around the world off guard, including lawmakers on Capitol Hill.

Many Democratic senators publicly criticizing the Trump administration for carrying out the operation without first notifying Congress or seeking authorization.

Democrats arguing that under the Constitution, only Congress has the power to declare war, and that a U.S.

military raid on another country should be subject to congressional approval.

The administration's characterizing the operation as a law enforcement action involving military assistance, not a prolonged military invasion, and therefore contending that it did not require prior congressional authorization.

This is a time for de-escalation.

Cook, going on to emphasize Apple's longstanding values, writing that the company believed America is strongest when it treats all people with dignity and respect and embraces shared humanity, principles he has said Apple consistently advocates.
