The Trump administration announced sanctions against the group and Maduro's administration last month.
>>1427879> Earlier this month, Mr. Trump directed the military to target drug cartels in Latin America, a source familiar with the matter confirmed to CBS News.> The U.S. military has also reportedly deployed several vessels to the southern Caribbean, as part of Mr. Trump's crackdown on Latin American drug cartels. Two sources briefed on the matter told the Reuters news agency that three U.S. destroyers will arrive off the coast of Venezuela soon.> A U.S. official briefed on the planning told the Associated Press that the USS Gravely, the USS Jason Dunham and the USS Sampson are expected to arrive soon. The official, who was not authorized to comment about military planning, told the AP the vessels would be deployed "over the course of several months."> Although he did not mention the recent U.S. actions specifically, Maduro thanked those who expressed their support in the face of what he called "rotten refrain" of threats.> Maduro called on his government's political base to move forward with the formation of peasant and worker militias "in all industries."> "Rifles and missiles for the peasant force! To defend the territory, sovereignty, and peace of Venezuela," declared Maduro.> Last September, the U.S. seized a plane belonging to Maduro and brought it to the U.S., with the Justice Department claiming the jet was exported from Florida in violation of U.S. sanctions

>>1427886>President Donald Trump’s administration has shown a willingness to use military force against Latin American drug cartels. Trump has placed relentless pressure on Mexico to crack down on criminal organizations and end fentanyl trafficking — or face steep tariffs on its goods.Thank you MR PRESIDENT Donald J Trump!
>>1427889But Trump is tariffing everything anyway, so how is that new?!
>>1427894Its not. They're trying to make Trump look like a statesman and a strong leader, but its just highlighting how much of a retard he is.After getting dogwalked by Putin throughout his first term, he squawked loudly about solving the Russian invasion of Ukraine day one, and then Putin has been dogwalking him ever since.At this rate it would probably be less embarrassing if he was a Russian asset
>>1427910>After getting dogwalked by Putin throughout his first term, So when Trump ordered drone strikes that killed Russian soldiers in Syria (something no other president has done), that was Putin dogwalking him? Or when US special forces killed 100 Russian mercenaries at Conoco Fields, that was Trump being dogwalked by Putin?
>>1427910When do you go back to the alternate reality where any of this bullshit is remotely true?>inb4 shill shill esl shillYou need new material. Your act is just fucking boring at this point.
>>1427916When Trump thought it ways ok to legitimize Putin's takeover of parts of Ukraine, that was Putin dogwalking him.
>>1427919Throughout his first term?
This is a distraction. Where are the Epstein files?
>>1427925You're never going to see them so stop asking.
>>1427926Nice try, trump. Release the Epstein files
>>1427928No.
>>1427928You want the files? Ok. Rich pervert who caters to other rich perverts gets caught. Gets murdered by rich perverts for fear of being outed.
