"You'll make it back, one way or the other, Trump said. You're all going to do very well. Rubio slid Trump the note, which the president held up and acknowledged out loud. Marco just gave me a note: Go back to Chevron. They want to discuss something,' Trump read as Rubio laughed. Go ahead, I'm going back to Chevron! Trump exclaimed, before slapping Rubio on the back and saying, Thank you, Marco!"
"It was not in the national security of the United States and our people to have in our own hemisphere, a country not just with vast energy reserves but controlled by an indicted narco-trafficker who flooded our country with illegal immigration including drug gang members, openly cooperated with drug gangs and, by the way, stole the wealth of that country to fund a repressive regime and benefit adversaries such as Iran."
President Donald Trump met with top U.S. oil executives, joined by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Vice President J.D. Vance, and other administration officials, to discuss moving forward with Venezuela's oil reserves. The meeting included CEOs from Exxon, ConocoPhillips, and Shell and included discussion of recouping past losses in Venezuela. Trump publicly read a note from Rubio telling Chevron to speak, creating a lighthearted interruption and confusion from the Chevron CEO. Secretary of Energy Chris Wright redirected the conversation and asked Chevron Vice Chairman Mark Nelson for an operational update and achievable timelines for 12–18 months. Rubio praised actions reclaiming Venezuelan energy resources from corrupt control.
