US sends F-22s to Gulf, threatening peace with Iran

The U.S. is sending more fighter jets to the Persian Gulf region amid the ongoing tensions with Iran. Iranian officials confirm the country has increased its stockpile of enriched uranium, breaking a major part of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.  The U.S. Border Patrol is coming under fire after a bombshell report revealed disturbing comments and memes inside a private Facebook group for Border Patrol agents. Current and former agents joked about migrant deaths and posted sexually explicit comments about female politicians. Investigative journalist Ben Swann shares his insights. Venezuelans are losing patience with opposition leader Juan Guaido, who declared himself interim president in January. Meanwhile, a Venezuelan lawmaker will face trial for attempting to assassinate President Nicolas Maduro in 2018 and the widow of a Venezuelan Navy captain has called for the UN to investigate her husband's death. She says he was tortured after being arrested for plotting to overthrow Maduro. More than 700 Venezuelans are being held as political prisoners.
