The MeidasTouch Podcast · Rep. Pat Ryan Responds to Trump’s Speech on Venezuela Attack · 4 Jan 2026 podcast

We attempted in the House two different times to put constraints and exercise our constitutional prerogative.

And by a few, just a few votes, they failed.

A few Republicans even did come and join us on uh trying to block this warmongering and the starting of another forever war.

Now that the situation has changed, we need to force these votes aggressively in the very first days.

When we're back in D C next week.

I I get that, and I'm not dismissing that.

But if we take that attitude that we are powerless, which we are not, and I'll talk about what we can do in a second, then we're giving in to exactly what Trump in this regime, in our own regime, increasingly that is the right word, wants to do here.

And there are tools that we have.

One, I really do believe uh it's gonna be a very hard vote for a bunch of senators and uh

Republican House members, now that Trump has stood in front of the American people.

And not once, not twice, not three times, but like 10 times said, we're gonna run this country.

I mean, just straight up saying we're gonna do regime change, we're gonna do nation building, we're gonna occupy uh not only a foreign country, but a country that's frankly a mess and been a mess and will cost trillions of dollars and potentially thousands or tens of thousands of American lives and other innocent lives.

Now that that's been said out loud.

I think the situation is very different.

And what will change the calculus for those Republicans?

I I don't give them a lot of

credit for integrity, but if they hear loudly and strongly from their constituents, especially those in more swing kind of districts, it will matter.

We need to flood the phones and email boxes and text messages and every other form we have in the next few days of every Republican, specifically those and you know, you know the list, Ben.

I can share the list if if you know if you need it.

I know a lot of people watching already know.
