Trump Invades Venezuela, Captures Maduro
Maduro and his wife were captured in a "stunning, effective, and powerful display of American might," with no loss of American life or equipment.
In a strategic pinpoint operation that required the combined effort of all branches of our nation’s military, America captured Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cillia Flores, during an early morning raid on downtown Caracas.
Trump held a press conference with Hegseth, Rubio, and General “Raizin” Caine to give the world the details of the “law enforcement action,” as Rubio called it.
Operation Absolute Resolve has been in the works for months, but the weather in Venezuela was one of the major factors affecting the launch. They finally got a window last night, so about 10:46 pm ET, Trump said, “Good luck, and Godspeed,” as he gave the order. Over 150 aircraft from the Marines, Air Force, Navy, and Air National Guard were launched from more than 20 different locations on land and sea. The aircraft involved included F-22 Raptors, F-35 Lightning, F-18 Super Hornets, EA-18 Growlers, B-1 Lancers, and remotely piloted drones, among others.
The Maduro compound was raided at 1:01 am ET. The helicopters came under fire near the landing point; one was damaged but remained operable. Maduro and his wife were found near their safe room; however, they didn’t have time to close the heavy steel door before our men rolled up on them.
As U.S. forces extracted Maduro and his wife, multiple “self-defense engagements” ensued. By 3:29 am ET, the helicopter carrying the couple was over the water and out of the country.
President Trump called it a “stunning and effective, powerful display of American might.” He said during his press conference that we had rendered the Venezuelan military useless and blacked out Caracas to make this happen without any loss of American lives or equipment.
Maduro and his wife have already been indicted in the Southern District of New York, although Trump did later hint that the venue may change to Miami. Maduro is the kingpin of a narco-terror group, Cartel De La Solas. DataRepublican has a fantastic thread about the cartel and their connections to a bunch of NGOs. (*Sidenote: DR and her friend PepesGrandma have also revealed the links between Maduro and his Cuban friends to several of the groups behind the anti-Israel & anti-ICE movements as well as Black Lives Matter. Maduro was already working toward a regime change in America. We finally struck back at the source.)
Trump made it clear that he wants peace and justice for the people of Venezuela, including the diaspora that wants to go home. He said that we will be running things “until a proper transition can take place,” and that we will not let someone else like Maduro take over.
Since we are now in de facto control of the country, we are in charge of the Venezuelan oil fields. Trump said that we will be sending our oil companies in to fix their equipment that the previous socialist regime had stolen from them. Then our oil companies will run the country’s oil. The money from the Venezuelan oil will be used to reimburse America for our expenses related to this whole endeavor, as well as help the people in Venezuela. He says this partnership with America will make the people there both rich and free. When asked later how this could possibly be considered an “America First” action, Trump responded, “Because we need to surround ourselves with good neighbors, stability, energy. There is tremendous energy in that country that we need for ourselves and the world.”
This action fits with the concept of the Donroe Doctrine. Back in 1823, President James Monroe issued the Monroe Doctrine, which essentially told Europe, “You stay in your hemisphere, we’ll take care of ours.” The Donald Trump version looks to keep China, Russia, Iran, and others out of our hemisphere.
When asked who was in charge in Venezuela now, Trump said that a group, mostly composed of the people behind him (including Rubio and Hegseth), was in charge for the most part. He said Rubio had been in talks with Maduro’s VP, Delcy Rodriguez. Trump made it sound like Ms. Rodriguez was cooperating with Rubio and American efforts to “Make Venezuela Great Again.” However, Delcy had other thoughts.
Sources say that Delcy Rodriguez is currently in Russia. She gave a speech in which she proclaimed Maduro as the only president of Venezuela, demanded proof of life from Trump, said that Venezuela would not be anyone’s colony, and blamed Israel for America’s actions.
