U.S. Planes Strike Venezuela

The United States has launched bombing missions over the countryside of Venezuela. Three B-52s took part in the latest mission on Monday.

The precise target isn’t clear, but previous strikes at sea have been aimed at ships transporting drugs, presumably operated by the Tren de Aragua cartel.

A buildup in hostilities has occurred since September. Besides drug running ships, specific docks have been targeted — docks where drugs are allegedly being transported to be hauled across the Caribbean into the United States and Canada. Here’s more from Steve Turley.

Afraid Of Iranian Sleeper Cells?

An ex-FBI agent says Iran has had sleeper cells within the United States for decades. Should we be afraid of those cells “awakening” and causing disruptive chaos and violence?

Let’s hear from Tracy Walder, the former FBI agent, and also a CIA operative, who is now national security analyst for NewsNation.

In a nutshell, she does not believe we will see an attack as complex as 9-11. But she says “lone wolf” attacks might occur, or attempts to dismantle our critical infrastructure — say, dams, power plants, docks or roadways.

Both the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and FBI issued statements Sunday encouraging citizens to remain watchful and report anything suspicious. But FBI Director Kash Patel acknowledged it will be near impossible to defend against sleeper cell attacks.

These cells remain unknown, but sometimes can be detected if and when they transmit or receive activation signals.
