These attacks on Venezuela, and any subsequent illegal attacks elsewhere, could have domestic repercussions for US citizens.
As the Generals bloody their hands carrying out Trumps illegal orders so their fate becomes bound to that of the regime.
Will they repress citizens attempts to oust it?

I realise now the clue was in the change of departmental name from defence to war.

Trump "We will rebuild the oil infrastructure..."
Not: healthcare, education, agriculture, system of justice etc etc, just oil!

Thank goodness the Conservatives aren't in power in the UK as I suspect they would have already thrown their backing behind Trumps plan for western hemisphere domination.

He's mad she won the Nobel Peace Prize and he didn't. That's it. That's what it's all about. Best part is she idiotically and sycophantically dedicated her prize to him and he still won't back her and prefers to publicly denigrate on a day like today.
Trump on María Corina Machado: "I think it'd be very tough for her to be the leader. She doesn't have the support or the respect within the country. She's a very nice woman but she doesn't have the respect."

Trumps empire building will bring as much rewards to the American workers as Britains brought to their working class, sweet Fanny Adams!
The poor will shed their blood for it & the already wealthy will live on the fat of the vanquished lands.

Trump on China: "There's not gonna be a problem. They're gonna get oil. We're gonna allow people to have oil ... nobody can stop us."

Farages response to Trumps attack on Venezuela is expected, anything is OK if you can explain it away
"The American actions in Venezuela overnight are unorthodox and contrary to international law -but if they make China and Russia think twice, it may be a good thing"

I think a lot of South American fans will be cancelling their World Cup travel plans. It's Trumps payback to fifa for giving him a cheap 'peace prize' & most importantly one without a fat cheque attached.

Farage's role as Ttump's very own Comical Ally might hopefully be placed under some scrutiny today.

I have this nagging feeling that the admin want a piece of land so they can offshore their internment camps.

Venezuela opposition reports the so called "capture" of Maduro was a negotiated deal between Maduro and US for an agreed exit strategy. We reported in November that this would be the case. The US bombed Venezuelan service members as part of a death theatre. #VenezuelaInvasion

Aside from the legal aspect, on the military side it doesn't seem right if this was always intended as a extraction 'event.'
Was Trump only able to get a limited action agreement from the Generals, or is there more to follow?

Here's a dangerous effort to carve out a loophole in presidential war powers big enough to drive a tank through.

If such an authority existed, the president could invade anywhere, anytime, without involving Congress—just by claiming, without proof, that an attack is "imminent."

Rubio apparently says aim has been achieved, no further action planned.
A full carrier strike group & 15,000 marines, that's a major force for a limited action.
Slight suspicion they won't be sailing away just yet.

Maduro & wife captured. Enroute to US to stand trial.
Now, if Trump could repeat this in Russia & capture Putin I'd be having a real 'crisis of conscience.'
January 3, 2026 at 11:15 AM
This US action against Venezuela may bring serious ramifications.
I wonder if they've thought the possible scenarios through?

BREAKING: The United States appears to have begun bombing Venezuela. Massive airstrikes are underway. War is here.
January 3, 2026 at 7:22 AM
Seems feasible this is the prelude to a ground invasion/incursion into Venezuelas territory.
If Trump gets away with this then it will embolden him to repeat these attacks elsewhere.

This is not confirmed, It seems the explosions in Caracas are from US aerial attacks, BBC.

A civilian airport, & military airport explosions.

The US has carried out a series of attacks across Venezuela targeting airbases and military bases. Venezuelan anti-air systems appear nonexistent. #VenezuelaInvasion
