"... Secretary Marco Rubio was purposefully clear in his statement about the operation.
“This is not the kind of mission that you can do congressional notification on. It was a trigger-based mission in which conditions had to be met night after night,” Rubio said later at a Mar-a-Lago news conference. “Remember, at the end of day, at its core, this was an arrest of two indicted fugitives of American justice, and the Department of War supported the Department of Justice in that job. Now there are broader policy implications here, but it’s just not the kind of mission that you can pre-notify because it endangers the mission,” he said.
Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Tom Cotton affirmed after discussion with Rubio, “congress doesn’t need to be notified ever time the executive branch is making an arrest. And that’s exactly what happened this morning in Venezuela, and now Maduro is going to come to the United States, and he’s going to face justice.”
This is an important distinction. The DEA and DOJ carried out an arrest of an indicted drug trafficker.
This was, as Rubio noted, a law enforcement operation to capture fugitives. The military component was in support of that operation, nothing more. The DOJ had the lead; the DEA was the enforcement mechanism, and the military were in tactical support.
Pertaining to the “broader policy implications” noted by Rubio, there are many facets. As accurately noted by Cynical Publius:
“Under Maduro, Venezuela had become the Latin American crossroads for all of the USA’s principal enemies. Maduro was nurturing relationships with Russia, Hezbollah and Iran. Worst of all, Venezuela was eagerly becoming a part of Red China’s Belt & Road initiative.
As America’s enemies were lining up Venezuela as their base of operations in the Western Hemisphere to cause mischief and destruction for the USA, Maduro was at the same time making Venezuela a crossroads, safe haven and enabler for all manner of narcoterrorist operations, ranging from Colombia’s FARC to Mexico’s Sinaloa cartel.
On top of all that, Venezuela had become a key player in the illegal alien invasion of the USA, shipping its very worst to the USA in a deliberate and comprehensive destabilizing operation that might have worked had Donald Trump not won in 2024.
[…] So was Maduro seized because of some five-year-old drug charges? Yes. Legally–yes. However, like so many strategic issues in the world today, an action needed to be backed by the fine points of law, and it was. But the reality is that the Maduro takedown was a Monroe Doctrine-driven necessity that has greatly enhanced the power and national security of the USA. (read more)
However, beyond the geopolitical issue that relates to all the above, there is another consideration that might help explain the immediate and alarmed reaction of Mexico.
With President Trump now forcefully executing exfiltration of narcotic drug traffickers, the ramifications for Mexico and the Cartels who own/operate the Mexican government take on a new context.
If the U.S. will raid Venezuela, will the U.S. now conduct a similar approach closer to home?"
A: Yes. And let's start in Arizona, the Cartel Capitol of America.

* JUDGE BOASBERG RULES KILMAR ABREGO GARCIA IS THE RIGHTFUL PRESIDENT OF VENEZUELA AND SENDS HIM TO CARACAS ABOARD AIR FISA ONE
"While throngs of young people are cheering loudly for avowed socialist Bernie Sanders, socialism has turned oil-rich Venezuela into a place where there are shortages of everything from toilet paper to beer, where electricity keeps shutting down, and where there are long lines of people hoping to get food, people complaining that they cannot feed their families.With national income going down, and prices going up under triple-digit inflation in Venezuela, these complaints are by no means frivolous. But it is doubtful if the young people cheering for Bernie Sanders have even heard of such things, whether in Venezuela or in other countries around the world that have turned their economies over to politicians and bureaucrats to run." .........more: "Today one can literally go from kindergarten to becoming a graduate student seeking a Ph.D., without ever hearing a vision of the world that conflicts with the vision of the left.
Conservative critics who object on grounds that the views of the left are wrong miss the point. Regardless of whose views become a monopoly, education suffers. John Stuart Mill understood this back in the middle of the 19th century.
As a young Marxist in college during the 1950s heyday of the anti-Communist crusade led by Senator Joseph McCarthy, I had more freedom to express my views in class, without fear of retaliation, than conservative students have on many campuses today." .........

Instapundit: "Over the past year, 74 percent of Venezuelans lost an average of nearly 20 pounds each, reports The Economist. The military controls the country’s food supply, and the result is widespread malnourishment and, of course, corruption. Venezuela’s hospitals have more in common with those in Aleppo than with those of an oil-rich, emerging economy. As the Guardian reported last year, children are suffering from malnourishment for the first time in the country’s modern history; there are outbreaks of scabies, a disease easily prevented with basic hygienic practices; hospitals are running out of even basic drugs. Caracas is the murder capital of the world. Corruption has infected the country wholesale even as it has created a new class of kleptocratic oligarchs linked to the security services." .......
MR. OBAMA: RELEASE THE SECRET PHOTOS OF YOU AND FIDEL FROM YOUR RECENT CUBAN HONEYMOON
"Did Obama meet with Fidel? Of course.
Were pictures taken? Naturally.
Are they hiding those pictures from the American people? You bet.
Obama knows the Communist iconography intimately and grasps the situation instantly. He needs to maintain the fiction that he is not a Commie to fool the folks at home. So he let's his hand go limp to prevent this victory photo from being re-enacted, and immediately engages a bystander in joking banter to further misdirect viewers. And now you know the Rest of the Story!)" .......

| "Sorry, Polly; there's no crackers in Venezuela. Everybody's eating out of dumpsters--except at the Presidential Palace." |
Fidel was Chavez’ father figure and showed him the joys of Voting Machine Fraud. But he wasn't the only one.
Gay President Obama went to Cuba in March of 2016 to discuss Voting Machine CheatWare, the state of Worldwide Communism and their various Trafficking Operations in secret meetings with his hero Fidel Castro. Fidel was the visionary who had immediately grasped how voting machines could be used to install Communists with the veneer of legitimacy, proven by his installation of Chavez.
Barack Ogaybar knew that Donald Trump would run for president later that year because he had been "wiretapping" him. Evidently, he sought a refresher course on Election Fraud from Fidel.
This was back when Democrats still opposed Nazis in Ukraine and held hearings against Voting Machine Fraud. Kamala Harris even gave a demonstration of the very Machine Fraud that was later used to install her as vice-president.
They flipped on Nazis in Ukraine and on the Machine Fraud, as well. They went from "This is awful!" to "This is awesome!" once they realized that Permanent Institutionalized Election Theft was their only road to power, since the People were now rejecting their rancid and wicked policies.
Gaylord said he only met with Raul, and not Fidel, as if that were a moral distinction, but that was a bald-faced lie which the American Regime Press helped him perpetrate, because they are corrupt #ProfessionalLiars, too.
Release the photos, Barry! You know you want to. Let your freak flag fly like Mayor Zorro Mandingo in New York!
When Obama left the palace of the Castro military dictatorship of Cuba after all those long, romantic evenings with Fidel by firelight, he travelled to Argentina, to tell the impressionable schoolchildren there this wicked, yet limp-wristed excuse for Communism:
“So often in the past there has been a division between left and right, between capitalists and communists or socialists, and especially in the Americas, that’s been a big debate. Those are interesting intellectual arguments, but I think for your generation, you should be practical and just choose from what works. You don’t have to worry about whether it really fits into socialist theory or capitalist theory. You should just decide what works.” .......Do Cubans get to debate? Is it an "interesting intellectual argument" to those in Maduro's jails? Or those murdered by these bloodthirsty ghouls?
Even now, Democrats are trying to return Venezuela's runaway slaves to their Communist masters, an old habit that started with Chief Justice Taney and sparked the Civil War.

(2020):
"National File reported in November that Roger Stone, longtime Trump ally and close friend, said that “100% of the voting machines and voting systems in this country are using the same software that Dominion has been using to switch votes.” This software, known as “Election Guard,” Stone alleges, was created by Microsoft at the behest of Bill Gates himself.".......

Trump Is Rolling Up The Drug Scourge Once and For All–Elizabeth Nickson, Oct. 2025:
“… Did you see Kristi Noem standing in front of a jail cell filled with tattooed Tren de Aragua? Ice Barbie with a cap on warning anyone who even thinks about coming into the U.S. illegally, with crime on their mind, and btw crossing the border illegally is a crime? It was heaven.
That was even funnier to me than Hakeem Jeffries in a memed sombrero with a Trumpified Mexican band behind him, intoning about bigotry. Also Secretary Hegseth firing fat soldiers, including Generals, plus no men in dresses around the bloody office anymore. No women in combat measuring down to extra-special lower physical standards. We are the War Department and we fight enemies foreign and domestic and that includes you Green Grifting “King” Charles. whether domestic or not. For Americans. Not the bloody bankers.
From Axios:From 2020-2022, three years, more than 400,000 Americans died of a drug overdose, more than in World War 1, the Korean War and the Vietnam War combined.
Who made this? Who stood it up? Not the cartels, not the street dealers, not “China” – or at least they weren’t Primary Actors. It was these jokers, below, whose secret dirty money finances this massive, highly organized trade. They steered the cartels into the desperate areas in America: those regions and towns gutted by de-industrialization and the environmental junta. ...
It’s the bloody British. When the City of London figured out, circa 1800, that they could addict fifty million Chinese to opium, and money would pour into their coffers, the scam, the system, the structure began to build. It is still run out of the City of London, and from the very beginning the British Royal Family were the instigators, the chief funders, the enforcers. It was they who sent the armies to fight the Opium Wars that destroyed generations of Chinese. And it is they who have addicted half of northern Virginia..” …….

One could argue the Venezuela operation is a reflection of Ratcliffe finally getting his arms around it, so to speak."

Isaiah 54
13 And all your citizens shall be taught by me, and their prosperity shall be great. 14 You will live under a government that is just and fair. Your enemies will stay far away; you will live in peace. Terror shall not come near. 15 If any nation comes to fight you, it will not be sent by me to punish you. Therefore, it will be routed, for I am on your side.[a] 16 I have created the smith who blows the coals beneath the forge and makes the weapons of destruction. And I have created the armies that destroy. 17 But in that coming day, no weapon turned against you shall succeed, and you will have justice against every courtroom lie. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord. This is the blessing I have given you, says the Lord.¡Gracias, Padre Celestial! ¡Gloria a Dios!
