"They literally lied to our face," said Chris Murphy, a US senator from Connecticut, on Sunday, referring to a briefing on Venezuela that the US secretary of state, Marco Rubio, gave to his chamber last month. "The message they sent was that this wasn't about regime change … They said this is just a counter-narcotics operation."
In an appearance on CNN's State of the Union, Murphy called the action in Venezuela in the early hours of Saturday "wildly illegal", adding: "There is no way to trust this administration."
