Maduro Ousted in Overnight Operation

According to a statement attributed to Donald Trump, the United States allegedly carried out a large scale overnight military operation in Venezuela in the early hours on Saturday. The claim says U.S. special forces conducted strikes in and around Caracas and other regions, resulting in the capture and removal of Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro and his wife from the country. Reports cited explosions, fires, and low flying aircraft over the capital.

While the operation is publicly framed around drug trafficking, criminality, and illegitimate rule, the broader narrative fits squarely within a modern Monroe Doctrine framework of reasserting U.S. dominance in the Western Hemisphere and denying strategic footholds to adversaries. Venezuela’s vast oil reserves, control over energy flows, and its alignment with non Western powers make the move look less like a counternarcotics action and more like a resource and influence driven intervention. From this lens, drug trafficking becomes the justification, not the core objective.

The Venezuelan government condemned the action, calling it an attempt to seize national resources and undermine sovereignty, and demanded proof regarding Maduro’s status. Taken together, the episode is being framed not just as a security operation, but as a significant escalation of U.S. enforcement of hemispheric control with regards to oil, energy security, and geopolitical leverage first, law enforcement rhetoric second.

Trump seems to be going for the jugular here.

Venezuelan air defenses look to be COMPLETELY disabled by the U.S. military already.

Maduro may be living on borrowed time.
