Is Trump 2.0 Planning to Invade Venezuela?

Trump secretly authorized military force against Latin American drug cartels classified as foreign terrorist organizations

“The president is determined to not just dismantle – but completely destroy – [Venezuelan dictator Nicolas] Maduro’s Cartel de Los Soles and obliterate their operations in the Western Hemisphere,” a source close to the White House said.

Maduro, Venezuela’s president since 2013, has been a particular focus of the administration. 

The Justice and State departments announced Thursday they would award $50 million to anyone providing details leading to his arrest for violating US drug laws.

In his latest move to clamp down on illegal immigration and immigration more broadly, President Trump has filed a presidential action invoking the Alien Enemies Act of 1798, a seldom-used law that gives the president authority to detain or deport nationals of an enemy nation during wartime. It’s only the fourth time in American history a president has used the act — and the first since World War II.

The directive targets members of Tren de Aragua, a Venezuelan prison gang, and authorizes expedited removal of all Venezuelan citizens 14 and older, deemed to be members of the organization, who are not U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents.
