Be hopeful that the Maduros will meet justice. The previous Democrat administration in the US agreed that Nicolas Maduro’s reign of terror and narco-terrorism needed to end. They didn’t act, but verbalized their opposition to the fraudulent elections in Venezuela. They did not recognize Maduro as the leader of Venezuela.
The Story
On January 3, 2026, U.S. forces raided Maduro’s residence in Caracas. They captured Nicolas Maduro and his equally culpable wife, Cilia Flores.
Operating largely from the shadows, Ms. Flores, the first lady of Venezuela, helped consolidate Mr. Maduro’s rule while controlling the judiciary and amassing wealth through corruption, experts say.
They traveled on the USS Iwo Jima and then flew to Stewart Air Force Base in New York, where they now face charges for leading the ‘Cartel de los Soles’ cocaine network. They are accused of smuggling 10 tons annually to fund their regime.
The operation followed a $25 million bounty and resulted in two minor U.S. injuries amid disputed Venezuelan casualty reports of about 40 deaths.
President Trump plans oversight of the democratic transition and oil stabilization.
Cuba, Colombia, Mexico, and China are unhappy. Those nations are into the narcotics business themselves and need to find a new line of work.
This is America First. The Monroe Doctrine, and protecting the USA and our hemisphere, is America First.
