Pres Trump told me tonight the US had identified possible candidates to take over Iran, but they were killed in the initial attack.

"The attack was so successful it knocked out most of the candidates," Trump told me. "It's not going to be anybody that we were thinking of because they are all dead. Second or third place is dead."

YOU: Hi, my name is [NAME]. I’m calling from [ZIP CODE].

YOU: I’m calling [MOC] to demand they condemn the U.S.’s actions in Venezuela tonight. The Trump administration has carried out an illegal attack and capture of Maduro that is a clear violation of international sovereignty and will impact relationships will alienate international allies, and [ELECTED] must speak out about this. 

YOU: I am also calling on [MOC] to:

1. Speak plainly about this to their constituents. They can acknowledge the Maduro regime’s abuses AND recognize this as an unlawful extraterritorial detention, 

2. Demand a legal written justification from the Administration, 

3. Hold IMMEDIATE House/Senate Foreign Affairs hearings on the the decision-making, legality, and diplomatic risks of the Maduro operation, 

4. Demand an immediate classified briefing for the Gang of Eight. 

YOU: What happened tonight will have ramifications across the world in the days, weeks and months to come, and we need answers and action taken. 

YOU: [OPTIONAL COMMENTS - DEMAND A RESPONSE]
