Jeanne Shaheen Is Pressing For Answers on Venezuela, Greenland and Iran

What is Donald Trump’s plan for Venezuela? Does he have one? Will
he go beyond threats in supporting the uprising in Iran or
invading Greenland?

Jeanne Shaheen has been in the US Senate since 2009 and is now
the most senior Democrat on the Foreign Relations Committee. Her
position has given her access to information most lawmakers don’t
have. She’s also known as someone prepared to work with
Republicans. Indeed, she was one of the eight Democrats who
joined the GOP to end last year’s government shutdown over
healthcare subsidies that have since been allowed to expire.

In this conversation with Mishal Husain, Shaheen talks about how
she’s hoping to reassure traditional American allies shaken by
Trump’s attacks and threats as part of a Congressional delegation
to Denmark this week. Closer to home, she discusses healthcare,
the cost of living and the future of the Democratic party ahead
of the midterms.
