This is the tip of the iceberg.

As detailed in 2020 bestseller Proof of Corruption, Trump used Erik Prince, Rudy Giuliani and a megadonor to launch clandestine negotiations in Venezuela that would've effectuated some version of the deal. America is being lied to every which way.

@maddow.bsky.social: “There are very few Americans right now who have any idea why the United States did this. If this was about drug trafficking then why did President Trump just pardon the former President of Honduras who was convicted of sending hundreds of tons of drugs into the US?”

The truth seems obvious to anyone willing to open their eyes. Trump has decided that whatever the files contain is more damaging to him than the political cost of keeping them under wraps as the country clamors for their release. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/for-...

Two legal issues at work in Venezuela asTrump Admin uses criminal charges to obscure regime change. Maduro’s indictment and arrest may be upheld, but that does not negate violation of UN Charter, approved by Congress in 1945, and constitutional duty to take care that laws be faithfully executed.

I will say again what my reporting at PROOF has established since 2021: What happened today in Caracas was a long time coming, and had nothing to do with drug trafficking, illegal immigration or undemocratic votes in South America. This happened because of who Donald Trump is and what he aims to do.
Last year, Trump promised American oil executives “a great deal” if they donated $1 billion to his campaign.

Today, he gave them Venezuela — home to the largest oil reserves in the world.

This new war is not only illegal and reckless; it is deeply corrupt.

Donald Trump's unprecedented data grab is central to a broader strategy of voter suppression, election subversion, and litigation designed to undermine free and fair elections in 2026 and beyond. This is the biggest fight for free and fair elections we have faced in years.

Watch, learn and share.

Basic fact:

There are no circumstances under international or US law that will ever not make this an illegal act by a sitting US president.

Therefore, there needs to be consequences and accountability for that act; no matter how much propaganda and retcon will happen to dull the senses.
