Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer sharply criticized the Biden administration following a classified Senate briefing, saying officials failed to provide transparency on the September 2 U.S. military strikes in the Caribbean. Schumer revealed he directly demanded that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth allow all 100 Senators to view the unedited video of the operation targeting a suspected drug trafficking boat. br br According to Schumer, that request was flatly refused. The Pentagon has confirmed there are no plans to release the full, unedited footage, intensifying concerns among lawmakers about accountability, oversight, and broader implications tied to U.S. policy toward Venezuela. The dispute is fueling growing bipartisan frustration over secrecy surrounding the operation and the administration’s handling of congressional briefings. br br #ChuckSchumer #PentagonBriefing #September2Strikes #UneditedVideo #DefenseSecretary #PeteHegseth #SenateBriefing #USMilitary #CaribbeanStrike #DrugTraffickingBoat #VenezuelaConcerns #CongressOversight #AdministrationCriticism #BreakingPolitics #USDefensebr br ~HT.318~ED.
