Yes, Madero is more the head of a drug cartel that rook over a country than he is a president.
We just arrested the Illegitimate so-called "president" we (along with the EU, Argentina and other LA countries) never recognized to try him on drug trafficking charges.

Looks like they were busy.
I think after obliterating Iran’s nuclear weapons program and now this, we can retire the dumb Democrat “TACO” talking point.
How is our glorious Navy unable to catch some rusted-out hulk of a tanker for 2 or 3 days already? And why not bomb it like these drug boats were bombed? TACO?

I am curious to see if some judge will suddenly require we free him. I doubt it, they don’t mess with CIA. But curious now.
How did we manage to not throw Maduro out of a helicopter?

Next us supported prime minister of venezuela.
Venezuela has one citizen who won the Nobel Prize: opposition leader María Corina Machado, awarded the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize for her fight for democracy against the Maduro regime, though she secretly traveled to receive it after escaping a government crackdown. Another Venezuelan-born figure, immunologist Baruj Benacerraf, won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1980, notes Wikipedia.

"International Order" - where the DC Consensus and the ECHR/UN decides what is good and bad and the US spends all the money and blood to "fix" it, is over.
Back to normal Geopolitics.
Like our beautiful, all-American Monroe Doctrine.

Billionaire Oleg Deripaska fears that by seizing control of Venezuela's oil reserves, the Americans could devastate Russia's budget revenues.
"If our American 'partners' get to Venezuela's oil fields (and they've already got to Guyana's), they'll control more than half of the world's oil reserves. And apparently, their plan is to ensure that the price of our oil doesn't rise above $50 per barrel," Deripaska wrote on social media.

"...rendered powerless". All those fancy Russian anti aircraft and missile defenses were either neutered, or were ordered down. If they were neutered, what was the secret weapon(s)? Space Force magic?

"Leak", of course, is soft shoeing the ongoing treasons from Congress. Will Trump be using more lively terminology in the future? The whole Deep State apparatus is rearing back on its heels in fear I would imagine.

The sealed indictment against Maduro is 11 Cr 205 means it's case number 205 from 2011. So this goes back to the Obama administration, and the investigation may have started during Bush's second term.
The sealed indictment is referenced in today's Axios article,

Venezuela has greater oil stores than any other country. But after years of corruption, mismanagement and more recently U.S. sanctions, its oil output has dropped to a tenth of what it was two decades ago.
From Lake Maracaibo in the west to the Orinoco oil belt in the east, abandoned wells rust in the sun as looters scavenge the metal. The last drilling rig still working in Venezuela shut down in August. The country is on course, by the end of this year, to be pumping little more oil than the state of Wyoming.
“Twenty percent of the world’s oil is in Venezuela, but what good is it if we can’t monetize it?” said Carlos Mendoza, an ambassador under the late socialist president Hugo Chávez, who enjoyed an oil bonanza when prices were high but starved the industry of investment and maintenance funds.
“We’re entering a post-oil era,” Mr. Mendoza said.
While petroleum is under stress world-wide from climate-change concerns and the rise of wind and solar power, what is happening to oil in Venezuela goes far beyond the global industry’s troubles. It is an existential crisis for a country long dependent on oil for nearly all of its hard-currency earnings.
This year, Venezuela’s oil income will probably fall below the limited funds coming in from other sources such as gold mining and overseas workers’ remittances, said Luis Vicente León, an economist and pollster. Venezuela’s economy is likely to shrink more than 30% this year from the oil collapse plus the pandemic, says Ecoanalitica, a Caracas business consulting firm.
