About Karen Breslin

I’m Karen Breslin, and I’m running for the U.S. Senate because Colorado—and our country—desperately need change. The status quo has failed us, leaving working families struggling, our rights under attack, and too many politicians more focused on partisan games than real solutions.

Statement re: Trump's attack on Venezuela January 3, 2026 https://www.breslinforcolorado.com Contact: breslinforsenate@gmail.com; 303-532-6860 Statement of US Senate Candidate Karen Breslin Regarding Trump's Attack on Venezuela I condemn the U.S. attack on Venezuela for what it is: a lawless act of aggression that violates the UN Charter, shreds the rule of law, and drags our hemisphere back into the most destructive patterns of Cold War interventionism. When a president launches an unauthorized military strike, removes a foreign head of state by force, and bypasses both Congress and the United Nations, they place themselves outside the Constitution they swore to uphold. That is not just reckless — it is an impeachable abuse of power. And we cannot ignore the motive that has shadowed U.S. policy in the region for a century: oil. Venezuela holds the largest proven crude reserves on Earth. Latin America has lived through the consequences of this playbook before. In Guatemala in 1954, a U.S.-backed coup toppled President Jacobo Árbenz for challenging corporate land monopolies. What followed was four decades of civil war, scorched‑earth campaigns, and the killing or disappearance of more than 200,000 Indigenous Guatemalans. In Chile in 1973, U.S. support for the coup against President Salvador Allende opened the door to a 17‑year military dictatorship. Thousands were tortured, murdered, or disappeared under Pinochet’s regime. Chile’s democratic institutions were dismantled so that a junta could rule in the name of “order” and “stability.” Under the banner of “Operation Just Cause,” the U.S. in 1989 launched a full‑scale invasion to remove Manuel Noriega — an indicted foreign leader — from power. Entire neighborhoods in Panama City, including El Chorrillo, were burned to the ground. The strike on Venezuela follows that same template — the same logic of unilateral regime change dressed up as law enforcement. When the US ignores human rights, it ensures a lawless international environment that threatens Americans at home and abroad and makes a mockery of our supposed commitment to democracy. I will never stay silent in the face of human rights abuses of this sort, whether that occurs in Gaza, Venezuela or anywhere else. ### less
