What role has the CIA played in working with Venezuela to traffick, deal and ship cocaine? Mike Benz, the executive director of the Foundation for Freedom Online and a former CIA cyber intelligence officer, lays out the CIA’s complicated involvement with the drug running operation.
Could this queer the American prosecution of Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro on conspiracy charges? Here, Benz discusses the matter with Grant Stinchfield, the host on Stinchfield Tonight on the conservative TV news network Real America’s Voice.
From his prison cell, the former chief of national intelligence for Venezuela, Hugo Carvajal, says scores of American politicians as well as CIA officials took kickbacks from the deposed regime of Nicolas Maduro. There are conflicting reports on who took the campaign contributions and bribes.
One report says the matter remains up in the air, while the second report lists specific officials said to have received kickbacks. The kickbacks represent payments for opposing the Trump administration and, specifically, his attempts to thwart the narco-terrorism drug trade.
Again, it’s not clear yet if the charges are accurate, but there are allegations that the kickbacks supposedly went to tons of Democratic officials. A smaller cadre of Republicans received payments, mostly those who frequently oppose President Donald Trump — like U.S. Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky and U.S. Sen. Susan Collins of Maine.

Having removed the head of the snake, the body of the cobra remains, still flailing in Venezuela. But the regime of the dictator Nicholas Maduro will crumble and fall, as its muscle gets stretched thinner and thinner, and its belligerent strongmen are shattered.
Here, journalist Oscar Ramirez, reports after several days spent on the ground in Venezuela. The Maduro regime, led by vice president Delcy Rodriguez, is still calling the shots, but already has been overshadowed and restrained by the Americans. The regime, for instance, continues to silence outward protests against Maduro or his narco-terrorists.
Still, there are visible cracks forming. Iranians who had flocked to Venezuela in large numbers are already retreating — heading toward coastal locations so they can flee. Chinese merchants and Cubans also appear to be preparing to go.
Colombian President Gustavo Petro has echoed Maduro, calling American President Donald Trump a coward. Obviously, Petro is not so bright. He’s setting himself up as the next narco-terrorist to be captured and imprisoned. International law does not protect drug dealers. They can act tough, and issue threats, and browbeat everyday citizens. But none of them can outlast or outsmart the U.S. military. Here’s more from David “Nino” Rodriguez.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio ventures onto Meet The Press on NBC — the flagship channel of the fake leftist news — to underscore the resolve of the Trump administration to end narco-trafficking of fentanyl and cocaine inside our borders. The drug cartels in Columbia and Communist China will have to find new carriers now that their Venezuelan traffickers have been shut down.
Rubio makes clear. The United States will no longer sit back and allow our borders to be violated by globalist scum and terrorists. The Monroe Doctrine will be enforced. Agents from Hezbollah and Hamas, Communist China or Iran, can forget about trying to establish new beach heads in the Western Hemisphere.
Are we planning to seize Venezuelan oil? Nope. But we will insist it no longer goes to benefit terrorists or to foment violence and dissension around the globe. Here’s more from Matt Morse TV.
The Trump administration conducted surgical strikes against Venezuela over the weekend, reportedly capturing Venezuela President Nicolas Maduro and flying him out of the country. President Donald Trump said Maduro and his wife were “captured and flown out of the country” early Saturday morning.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio later said Maduro would face criminal charges in the United States, where he was indicted years ago. Rubio said no further strikes were planned in Venezuela. U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said the charges, against both Maduro and his wife, cover narco-trafficking as well as weapons charges. “They will soon face the full wrath of American justice, in an American court, on American soil,” Bondi said.
Several nations issued condemnations of the United States, but Venezuelans within the exile community in Florida hailed the arrest of Maduro. The Venezuelans took to the streets of Doral, Florida, patriotically singing the American and Venezuelan national anthems.
No Americans taking part in the strategic mission were injured, but there was apparently some gunplay involved. Here’s more from Bloomberg Television.
In a press conference Saturday morning, President Trump said Venezuela stole the oil industry American corporations had built in the Latin country, while running drugs into our country and brandishing weapons, mostly from Communist China.
He said the United States will run Venezuela until a legitimate government is elected. Also, he warned other countries, notably Columbia, not to precede down the same path as Venezuela. Here’s more from MJ Truth.

The Democrats made trillions of dollars through money laundering schemes tied to illegal immigration and child sex trafficking. That’s the word from Jerome Corsi, longtime citizen journalist, making an appearance on Nino’s Corner, the David “Nino” Rodriguez podcast.
Corsi says much of the money came through drug cartels involved in trafficking cocaine and fentanyl, as well as child trafficking for sexual abuse as well as illegal organ harvesting. The money laundering itself, says Corsi, was done through banks in Canada, primarily in Toronto.
The Democrats who benefited will be indicted through related home mortgage fraud. We’ve already seen Letitia James, the New York Attorney General, face such fraud charges. Corsi says we will see indictments soon for U.S. Sen. Adam Schiff, the California Democrat, as well as farther down the road for U.S. Rep. Eric Swalwell, also a California Democrat.
Another big pot of illegal money surrounds Act Blue. The investigation of Act Blue, says Corsi, suggests the pool of illegal money could top $18 trillion. The Democrats are likely to never recover because it will be shown “they were feeding themselves through the child sex trade.” The U.S. Department of Justice will be prosecuting these crimes and has so much to investigate that it could take years before we see full justice.

The United States has doubled the reward — now up to $50 million — for information that leads to the arrest and prosecution of Venezuela President Nicolas Maduro.
Maduro was indicted in Manhattan federal court in 2020, during the first Trump presidency, along with several close allies on federal charges of narco-terrorism and conspiracy to import cocaine. In doubling the reward, Trump now says Maduro has served as a ring leader for the narco-trafficking cartels, not only dealing cocaine, but also fentanyl-laced drugs.
Attorney General Pam Bondi, the head of the U.S. Department of Justice, gave a press conference spelling out the specifics. Here’s more from Matt Morse TV.
Rudely caricatured as a drug-crazed lunatic, Hunter Biden recently sat down for a long, in-depth, thought provoking interview that forced everyone who heard it to come to the conclusion that Hunter Biden is a drug-crazed lunatic. Here’s more from Steve Green on a new The Right Angle, joined by Scott Ott and Bill Whittle.
Hunter Biden melts down! He blames the Democratic Party for abandoning his father and paving the way for President Donald Trump’s return to the White House.
Former Trump aide Garrett Ziegler reacts, drawing upon the vast pool of Biden information that Ziegler has gathered and published through Marco Polo.
Democrats are getting nervous! Their odds continue to drop for the midterm elections in 2026.
