abcnews.go.com

... Secretary of State Marco Rubio plans on Wednesday to warn that the Trump administration is ready to take new military action against Venezuela if the country's interim leadership strays from U.S. expectations.

In prepared testimony for a hearing before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Rubio says the U.S. is not at war with Venezuela and that its interim leaders are cooperating, but he notes that the Trump administration would not rule out using additional force if needed following a raid to capture former President Nicols Maduro early this month. ...

He still thinks he can control things by his incoherent doom posting from his Truth Social account while sitting on his gold plated toilet.

Heavy sigh... we go through this every time the clown brigade pulls a coup stunt to interfere with another nation's sovereignty.
All they do is pick a more brutal regime while wagging their fingers in our face.

Their installations are often more cruel... Pol Pot... Shah Muhammad Pahlavi... Bautista...

oh oh oh... remember when Hamas was elected by majority vote... then there is that whole Taliban thingie...

GFY Fishpoo... you silly waste of oxygen.

It's good she is posing to her people. That is very necessary to ensure they do not think she is falling in lockstep with the US as a new puppet. However, behind the scenes, things are progressing like they should. This is a nonstory and is just a move by her to show power to her people, which is an awesome thing to do in this situation.
