Either it was a limited operation merely to arrest Maduro and move on, or, it is an ongoing major regime change committment that will open up a transition including international and private sector partners. It really can't be both

So if another nation indicts Trump, can they just come and get him?

Well, sure, Venezuela has a real government and the US occupies 0% of the country but once Trump posts a notice dissolving the military everything will go smoothly.
I feel like I’m going insane, there is, like, an actual Venezuelan government that still exists
With Nicolás Maduro out of power, the Trump administration is racing to assemble an interim governing structure for Venezuela.

Instead he seems to have bottled it and spent his time vamping & whinging on national TV.

Next, he repeatedly postponed the intended attacks from Christmas to last night.

Venezuela ships this blend because it has to mix their main crude oil reserve, from the Orinoco belt (which is EXTREMELY heavy, gravity 8° or so) with lighter crude from elsewhere for it to be shippable.

And that’s the problem with Venezuela’s oil reserves: they’re basically sludge.

Ryan: This is clearly us starting another forever war—which the American people do not support.

Trump is just straight up admitting this is a war for oil, and that he is willing to send our blood and treasure, to “run Venezuela,” whatever the hell that means, with no plan.

I'm boosting myself to say this:

You're going to see people On Here tell you calling electeds doesn't matter. That's not true.

Some are bots. Some are people who like being contrary to be edgy.

But calling moves the needle, especially against a blatantly illegal act by Trump and Co. ACT.
Candid answer - as someone who handled constituent affairs calls for years - while they’re not checking the phone right now, the urgency of the moment is important.

Show them you care enough to make the weekend call, and be counted that way. Staffers will clock and report this upstream.

So an invasion based on toppling a “narcostate” that is actually a “petrostate,” doesn’t end up being the cash cow Trump hoped it would be, because the deals he hoped to take a piece of don’t exist. Oil is already cheap & US oil companies see the money trap Venezuela is.
Welcome to capex-by-blackmail.

“.. They’re saying, ‘you gotta go in if you want to play and get reimbursed,’” said one industry official .. “But the infrastructure .. is so dilapidated that no one .. can adequately assess what is needed to make it operable.”

One of his prosecutors was Emil Bove, who Trump appointed to the DOJ and then the federal judiciary.
Q: “You said Maduro is responsible for drug trafficking. You recently pardoned the former president of Honduras convicted of drug trafficking. Can you explain?”

TRUMP: “He was persecuted very unfairly.” 🤷🏼

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month.

It’s about oil and regime change.

And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.
