Maduro No Mas
By Hal Mitchell – The Bard of Hearthstone Hills
Venezuela’s Nicolas Maduro has been captured after the U.S. conducted a “large-scale strike” on the country early Saturday morning, President Donald Trump announced.
“The United States of America has successfully carried out a large scale strike against Venezuela and its leader, President Nicolas Maduro, who has been, along with his wife, captured and flown out of the Country,” Trump wrote on Truth Social at 4:21 a.m. ET.
“This operation was done in conjunction with U.S. Law Enforcement. Details to follow. There will be a News Conference today at 11 A.M., at Mar-a-Lago. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP.”
My Comments: I watched the Trump Press Conference today and I was thoroughly impressed by their description of the efficiency of the U.S. Military Forces, as they captured this previously indicted criminal from his heavily fortified compound in Caracas, Venezuela.
“Nicholas Maduro had been charged (Twenty Years Ago) and more recently indicted with Narco-Terrorism Conspiracy, Cocaine Importation Conspiracy, Possession of Machine guns and Destructive Devices, and Conspiracy to Possess Machine guns and Destructive Devices against the United States.
I was so proud to be an Army veteran as I listened to the details of this “Fine-tuned” operation. I also recalled why we had to do training routines over and over until we could do them with our eyes shut. “Practice Makes Perfect” someone once said! Huaah!
PS: Maduro and his wife are currently on a US Navy ship in the Gulf of America heading for New York where he will face the charges of his indictment!
