This morning the US carried out a law enforcement raid in Caracas to capture and extract Nicolas Maduro and wife, and transport them to stand trial in New York where they were indicted for narco-terrorism in 2020. In the dead of night the operation came off without a hitch as a precisely integrated operation involving America’s military, intelligence services, and law enforcement.
As one of the world’s most notorious thugs, Maduro transformed an entire nation into a dictatorship that marshalled its drug cartels to produce and transport illegal drugs to the US over the last years that caused the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans. Along with that operation Maduro made the lives of Venezuelans so miserable that the country lost a quarter of its population as over 8 million of its citizens fled to other parts of the world including the US. At the same time Maduro supplied nationalized oil from its vast reserves to other thugocracies around the world including Cuba and China. Along with drug exports it was an operation worth billions that enriched the country’s criminals and helped stabilize tottering enemies of the US like Cuba, Colombia, and Nicaragua in the western hemisphere.
Othe columnists are weighing in similarly. Christopher Nixon Cox writes, “For over a decade, the Maduro regime was not a government; it was a transnational cartel with a seat at the United Nations. It flooded our streets with narcotics, weaponized mass migration to fracture our borders, and opened the gates of the Americas to our worst enemies.”
America finally got a president with the balls to say ‘no more’, and in one well-coordinated operation lasting about a month and concluding last night, brought down the whole criminal regime to enable Venezuelans to begin rebuilding their country. And President Trump appears wise enough to ensure that Venezuela’s successor government will be a good neighbor in the Americas and a friend of the United States.
So now we have available one more litmus test to identify anti-Americans and evil doers. Take note of which organizations and nations condemn Trump and the US for carrying out the arrest of the dictator Maduro and the suppression of Venezuela’s drug cartels. These are the opposing entities which directly profit from the type and extent of damage that a vibrant drug trade and consumption which is a blight on America. That such an activity weakens our country and serves as an obvious national security threat should not be a matter of debate for the pro-Americans who have been paying attention.
But within our borders the patently evil Democratic Party satisfies all the criteria for opposing an educated, prosperous, and strong United States. Their large, loyal, and less-read voting blocks regenerate themselves in the nation’s Democrat managed urban ghettos. Maintaining destitution in those wards over recent decades has directly benefited all elements of our Left, ranging from the media and academics to the politicians and labor unions that overwhelmingly depend on memberships made up of those who are not competitive in the labor markets.
The Democratic Party, with strongholds in single-party states like California, Illinois, and New York, has been in the forefront of promoting and implementing policies that create and foment dissatisfaction with everything that promotes meritocracy, individual liberties, free market capitalism, and minimal government interference in the private sector. These people have been the champions for a brave new world in which America relinquishes its sovereignty, culture and role as hegemon to become a compliant member of a new global world order.
