Venezuela Prepares for Imaginary U.S. Invasion with Karaoke, Karate
Socialist dictator of Venezuela Nicolás Maduro ordered measures in recent days to prepare the country for a purported “invasion” by the United States in response to President Donald Trump’s increasing efforts targeting Latin American drug cartels in the region.
Venezuelan state propaganda armed have rolled out bizarre videos in the past week of the alleged “training” Venezuela’s citizens are engaged in to scare the U.S. military out of invading.
The United States reportedly deployed three Aegis guided-missile destroyers near Venezuelan waters. According to unnamed sources speaking to Reuters on Monday, “about 4,000 sailors and Marines” are expected to be committed in the southern Caribbean region in a several-month-long operation in international airspace and waters.
For years, Maduro has repeatedly claimed without evidence that the United States plans to “invade” Venezuela and oust him from power. Maduro, who has illegally clung to power, is actively wanted by U.S. authorities on multiple narco-terrorism charges and is a leading figure of the Cartel of the Suns, an international cocaine trafficking operation identified by the United States as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) entity.
U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced this month that the United States doubled its reward for information that can lead to Maduro’s arrest and conviction from $25 to $50 million. (Read more from “Venezuela Prepares for Imaginary U.S. Invasion with Karaoke, Karate” HERE)
