Our top story yesterday involved taking stock of the Venezuela raid as a ploy by President Donald Trump to avert efforts by the Communist Chinese to ensnare us in a multi-front world war. Now, we’re getting more confirmation this was the case from a source who ought to know the truth — Dan Bongino, the former deputy director of the FBI.
“President Trump’s hemispheric security strategy is geopolitical common sense,” Bongino tweeted. “I’ve seen the threat picture and it is ominous. We cannot, in an age of both tactical and digital threats, allow sworn enemies of the United States to set up playgrounds in our backyard. It will not end well if we do.”
Here’s more on Bongino’s perspective, and the Chinese threat, from Doug in Exile.
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.
