Maggie Haberman reporting and no paywall from the New York Times. That only happens for their "important" articles.
"The conversation took place late in the week, two of the people said. It included a discussion about a possible meeting between the two men in the United States, according to the people with knowledge of the matter, who were granted anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly. There are no plans at the moment for such a meeting, one of the people said.
The phone call, which included Secretary of State Marco Rubio, came days before a State Department designation of Mr. Maduro as the leader of what the administration considers a foreign terrorist organization, the Cartel de los Soles, came into effect.
The United States has built up a substantial military presence in the Caribbean aimed at Venezuela. Administration officials have said their goal is to deter drug smuggling, but have also made clear that they want to see Mr. Maduro removed from power, possibly by force."
__
"A White House spokeswoman declined to comment on the call between Mr. Trump and Mr. Maduro. The Venezuelan government did not respond to a request for comment. Two people close to the Venezuelan government confirmed that a direct call between the two leaders had taken place. They did not want to be identified because they are not authorized to speak publicly."
__
"The administration has examined a range of options for Venezuela, including seizing the countryโs oil fields. Mr. Rubio, a leader of the efforts against Mr. Maduro inside the Trump administration, has described Mr. Maduro as an illegitimate president.
But the direct conversations between Mr. Trump and Mr. Maduro could be the beginning of an effort to create an off-ramp from an escalating use of force, though the administration appears intent on an outcome that requires Mr. Maduro to leave office."

Vance riffs in pre-Thanksgiving address: โTurkey doesn't actually taste that good'
Vice President JD Vance joked to the troops during his pre-Thanksgiving address that eating turkeys on the holiday is more about tradition than flavor. โOn the most American holiday, weโre going to cook a turkey by God because thatโs what Americans do.โ

Trump has gone from occasionally talking about Election Fraud after November 2024 to signing Executive Orders targeting Election Fraud in early 2025 to saying we need to "focus ALL of our energy and might on" it?
How many 'Truthers' called Badlands doomers for discussing this?

Sure, I mean, sheโs totally nailed it so far. I bet the โthree amigosโ or whatever are flying Maduro there on their special smuggling plane.
โThere are rumors that Maduro is prepared to flee to Turkey in a private plane.โ

One of the goals of Irregular warfare is to affect the legitimacy of its target.
So why are all these so-called MAGA influencers assisting the enemy by portraying Trump as incompetent?
And if Donald Trump was actually incompetent, why is he such a threat to the enemy?
