By Jason Renard Walker 

The criminal indictment the Trump administration filed on Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro and his wife in 2020, plus the recent follow-up to abduct them is at best: illegal and politically motivated towards the U.S. influence in Latin America, control over Venezuela exporting oil to adversaries of the U.S., and their inability to gain all proceeds from the vise-grip that countries like Ecuador, Dominican Republic and Colombia have on the distribution of cocaine into Nigeria (one of many transit ports) and throughout the Americas and Europe. 

In this essay and in no particular order I will show three things: 

1) Contradictions between Maduro’s capture, the illegalities of his criminal charges under international law and why he’s just a political pawn on Donald Trump’s chessboard. 

2) Why Trump has lost interest in Tren de Aragua and publicly fear mongering fentanyl. 

3) My hypothesis on how Trump’s interest in Latin America isn’t in preventing any drugs from entering the U.S., but controlling the hemisphere, seizing all available resources and reinventing how drugs are trafficked internationally, who’s allowed to traffic them and the tax-free wealth they’ll provide to finance future unauthorized invasions if Republicans lose control of the House and a Democrat-led congress strips funding his operations. 

MADURO’S ABDUCTION WAS A STATEMENT NOT A REGIME CHANGE 

Though the average media correspondent and observer will call the capture of Maduro a regime change, nothing could be farther from the truth. Not only were there indictments for Maduro’s son and several other officials who were left in power. Trump suggested that he and his MAGA heathens now run the country and the vice president Delcy Rodriguez, who was sworn in as president, either work with him on installing U.S.-controlled oil companies in the country, or suffer far more than Maduro has and will. 

Only and if this condition wasn’t met, Trump expressed that the possibility of another invasion and stationing troops there wasn’t off the table. This in no way means that his effort would be successful or the threat will coerce Venezuela into folding without first fighting back. What it does imply is that oil is not only the motive, but it is the decisive factor whether the U.S will engage in all out warfare on Venezuela’s soil. 

Adding insult to injury Trump sent Rodriguez a list of demands that he said needed to be met if Venezuela wanted to sell oil again. This included them severing all economic ties with China, Iran, Cuba and Russia, plus partnering exclusively with the U.S. when it comes to oil production and large amounts of crude oil being sold. 

Leading up to the invasion Trump said over and over again that he wants oil, all the while abandoning his narco terrorist rhetoric, seizing oil tankers and making Tren de Aragua a thing of the past. That’s because he doesn’t care about Tren de Aragua, he doesn’t care about human rights, he doesn’t care about harmful drugs entering the U.S. He doesn’t even care about the scandal around Venezuela’s 2024 election that Maduro is accused of stealing from opposition leader and 2025 Nobel Peace prize winner, Maria Corina Machado, who’s said to have gotten 70% of the votes. But we really can’t blame him for being callous towards that when he failed at attempting the same thing, pardoned those who tried to help him achieve it and was only able to avoid being convicted because he won the next election and got off on presidential immunity. 

In words the U.S said they didn’t recognize Maduro as president, a defense they will use in court to challenge his foreign leader immunity argument. But the United Nations does and in practice Rodriguez was sworn in to take his place, consistent with their constitution and with the blessing of Trump.

So it’s apparent that the U.S. has an unfaithful view on the crisis in Venezuela that is catered to fit what gets them closer to tapping into all those undeveloped oil reserves. 

What Trump really wants is to decide who leads the country, what oil companies get access in Venezuela, what banks get to finance those oil fields moving forward and which of his big money bros will be involved and the kickbacks he gets in return. 

I don’t think working with Rodriguez is a path Trump enjoys most, but one he thinks he must take. It is the quickest route to getting some kind of return before the midterm elections. Plus she has been able to sell herself as a reliable protector of Venezuela’s oil industry, and as a source that can protect foreign interests. Which in this case would be the interest of U.S. investors. 

Doing what many pundits say is the most logical thing, putting Machado in as Venezuela’s leader, does nothing but stall progress and spoil his plans. Remember Maduro’s military, interior design and officials are still in power. On top of this and outside of brute force, he doesn’t have the legal authority. To get Machado sworn in would require defeating their military, undoing years of policy that Hugo Chávez and Maduro weaved into the current administration and rewiring their entire geopolitical and socioeconomic structure on short notice. 

A fool regime-change would take years of military intervention, it’s not guaranteed to be a success and the chaos and onslaught the people would be melded into could result in another migration crisis or civil rebellion. 

Then there’s the conflict of interest. 

Machado has been consistent in her approach to Venezuela that freedom and democracy can’t be negotiated, and has not been able to adapt to the transactional approach to politics that Trump has brought to the White House. Which is a very geopolitically, agnostic approach where politics, morals and beliefs are sacrificed and adjusted on a daily basis to advance his MAGA agenda. 

Upon Trump being reelected he focused on trying to get U.S. detainees out of Venezuelan jails. This would require negotiating with Maduro’s government, so he sends his envoy to Caracas to negotiate a deal. Trump reaches out to Machado because she’s the representative of Venezuela’s opposition and, at the time, seen as a representative of U.S. interests. But her views are outdated and still connected to America’s pre-Trump politics. So every attempt to flip her failed and this in itself caused her to gradually lose allies and make new enemies with Trump’s base and abroad. 

The U.S. with the assistance of the CIA has a morbid history of invading small countries, without first gaining approval from Congress, strictly to steal resources and to establish a dictatorship over their economy, drug trade and political system. What’s often left behind is a country in ruins, a toppled leader getting replaced by a regime of tyrants, and no plan from the U.S. on how the people will be made whole again. 

But if you examine the presidencies from as far back as the beginning of the creation of the CIA (regime change junkies), this move by Trump is out of the same playbook. It actually seems modeled after Bush’s 1989 snatch and grab of Panama’s self anointed president Manuel Noriega, who was brought before a U.S. court and convicted of charges similar to Maduro’s. 

In fact, Republicans have tried to use the comparison to justify Maduro’s capture, but there are many distinctions that separate the two. First, Noriega wasn’t voted in as president and never held the title, but John Gotti’d his way into assuming absolute power. Second, in 1989 he declared war on the U.S. and congressional authorization was given to Bush to use military force. Third, Panama gave consent to the U.S. to enter the country and get him. The only commonality the two situations share is both were despised and viewed as tyrants, indicted on drug and weapons charges, and snatched up to be put on trial.

This is nothing more than classic U.S. imperialism run by a corrupt group of de facto authoritarians, and under the watchful eyes of billionaire buffoons that thrive off of greasing the palms of bribe artists like Trump. What we are witnessing is more than a regime change, its a modern day conquest and message to every country in the world as to who the real tyrants are, and their historically debunked belief that there’s nothing on planet earth that can stop them. 

TRUMP’S FAKE WAR ON DRUGS 

One of two questions I will answer here is why Trump seems to have lost interest in publicly taking on MS 13, an El Salvador based gang, and Tren de Aragua, a Venezuelan gang he recently labeled a narco terrorist organization, so as to try and justify the need to launch missile attacks on manned boats in the Caribbean. I will also use this same analysis regarding fentanyl, a dangerous synthetic opioid he said Hispanics were bringing with them into the U.S., which he opportunistically weaved in and out of his Tren de Aragua boogeyman. 

The quick answer to these questions is that the two were only pawns and distractions to advance his real agenda, and his fake war on drugs was a product of that, which I will explain in more detail. 

According to the bureau of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) website, fentanyl is made in Mexico from chemicals that are shipped to them from China. Once manufactured into pill or consumption form, it states, cartels that traffic it pay U.S. citizens to bring batches across the border where it is distributed all across America, and deep into Canada. On the other hand, Venezuela is simply a transit point for an estimated 10% of the worlds cocaine, which more often than not is headed to Europe and never touches U.S. soil. 

Even if Tren de Aragua were using boats to ship drugs into the U.S. like Trump has suggested without evidence. It is safe to say that it’s not fentanyl or a large enough quantity of cocaine to deem this gang narco terrorists because the U.S. Coast Guard has the personnel, the duty and the resources to intercept these boats at will. 

In the U.S. there are organized drug syndicates, government agents and kingpins that are running guns and the PCP drug throughout the U.S., and into the Black communities of D.C. where rivals are murdering each other behind it, just blocks away from the nation’s capitol. So how is a boat full of weaponless people in international waters, some 2,000 miles away, more narco terroristic and noticeable than the domestic mayhem taking place behind a more harmful drug that it is manufactured, distributed and only marketable in the U.S.? PCP that is. 

In a lot of speeches during his last campaign run, fentanyl and Tren de Aragua were two things that Trump seemed obsessed with using as a tool for inducing fear into voters that had anti drug and anti migration stances. His face turned beet red and loose skin flapped under his chin as he railed falsely against the Democrats for allowing Hispanic gangs to bring fentanyl into the U.S., rape and kill children, eat peoples pets, take away Black people’s jobs and basically run amok unchecked. Then after he was voted into office and his mass deportation plan pushed ICE agents and the national guards into Black and Hispanic majority cities, he is now collectively punishing and publicly lambasting Somalians in Minnesota behind fraud others committed and were convicted of during the Biden administration. 

Essentially, leading up to his second term in office, Trump was making a bogus case that the problems in the working class communities were a direct and proximate result of illegal border crossings. And as absurd as it sounded, a lot of people bought into it and still believe it. He is now doubling down on this illusion by making Somalians America’s next enemy, while simultaneously drawing up a blueprint on how he’s going to control Venezuela and profit off of the oil he’s stealing. Which he advanced using the same method.

His continuing effort to use fentanyl as a scapegoat had to be scratched because the CBP website itself implicated U.S. citizens as its traffickers and this was a narrative the Democrats were becoming aware of. 

When the Trump administration started snatching Hispanics off of the streets, circumventing immigration courts, and shipping those they accused of being MS 13 gang members off to El Salvador’s CECOT prison, this was the early stages of Trump’s plight to oust Maduro and place U.S. forces in the waters of Latin America. The purpose was to demonize and use Tren de Aragua and MS 13 as pawns to desensitize any outrage the public would have to all the unlawful misdeeds that took place during the deportation process and when it was time to obliterate the boats. 

To summarize, Trump pathologically built his plan to invade Venezuela around a deportation scheme that served its purpose, while throwing innocent Hispanics under the bus, murdering boaters yet to be identified and widening the divisions between party lines, just to advance him and his cronies into Latin America and in a land of oil they expect to enrich themselves with. 

During his fiasco, citizens were being arrested as suspected undocumented migrants and placed in ICE detention centers along with those falsely accused of being MS 13. The horror of this showed itself January 7 2026, when U.S. citizen Renee Nicole Good was killed by ICE agents in Minnesota, as she tried to drive away from their attempt to detain her for supporting undocumented migrants. 

One man Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran who left his country out of fear for his life, became the media’s face of Trump’s mass deportation scheme when they defied court orders and illegally sent him back to El Salvador in the wee hours of the night and placed him in CECOT. Since most media circuits were sympathetic to Garcia, Trump’s base tried to offset this by producing a fake photo of Garcia’s knuckles with a MS 13 tattoo obviously photo shopped across it, in effort to justify the evil they were failing at portraying him to be. 

He was eventually returned to the U.S. and there are important things to know about his situation, but unfortunately this is not where it can be read. But do know that Trump has quieted down on giving MS 13 media life because the Abrego Garcia scandal destroys every argument he tries to make. 

Trump knew as long as he could generate a partisan media buzz around the handling of his deportation scheme, he himself sensationalized, and show that he was making an effort to deport the gangs at the pushback of the Democrats. When it was time to ease closer to Venezuela, he knew by designating Tren de Aragua as narco terrorists and suggesting that they were now trying to kill Americans from afar. The death warrant he placed on them could be used to destroy manned boats and justify the presence of naval hardware in the Caribbean, under the false pretense of stopping narco terrorist drug runners. 

Trump’s deportation plan went from deporting criminals (which the majority weren’t) or ‘the worst of the worst’ to him revoking the citizenship rights of over one million people just to have subjects to deport in droves. And attempting to use his Supreme Court to revoke the birthright citizenship law that has stood firm since 1868. 

As you can see, once Maduro was removed from power and stealing the Venezuelans’ oil became more of a reality. Trump’s focus has shifted away from Tren de Aragua and blowing up boats in the Caribbean, onto seizing oil tankers, pirating what they seize and the new boogeyman – random oil tankers hustling sanctioned oil with countries the U.S. despises. Then too the Trump administration admitted after the fact that capturing Maduro wasn’t about Maduro but about the oil. 

A man this sinister, murderous, and calculated is not America’s Hitler like Veep JD Vance called him, he is far more dangerous and cunning then we probably will ever know. 

THE ILLEGALITIES OF MADURO’S CAPTURE

More than likely Maduro and his wife will sit in a federal detention center for years before they are put on trial. It isn’t often that the leader of a foreign country is captured and charged in a U.S. federal court. So there will be a lot of challenges from both sides to flesh out the legalities of the full indictment, which include international law and domestic law jurisdictions. 

One of the first things I expect Maduro’s legal team to challenge is whether he can get his indictment voided under one of the two foreign official immunity laws, which shield foreign leaders from legal consequences based on status as a foreign leader, or acts committed on behalf of its state. 

Noriega attempted to avoid being convicted using this same statute, but as it stood, this law didn’t apply to him because he wasn’t president of Panama, nor was he elected to be one. Honduran ex president, Juan Orlando Hernandez, who was convicted of smuggling 400 tons of cocaine into the U.S. didn’t even try because his own country handed him over to the U.S. for prosecuting and that bars immunity. But this didn’t seem to matter, Trump pardoned him a few months before going after Maduro. 

In Maduro’s case, not only was he operating as the president with a vice president and full administration. Once he was removed, Rodriguez was sworn in as his successor through the laws of their constitution and with the approval of the U.S. government. So one argument the DOJ can’t make in their challenge against foreign official immunity is that Maduro wasn’t the acting president when he was kidnapped. This is why I see the Republican party rejecting the existence of international law. Trump wants to have his cake and eat it too, which he can’t do if Rodriguez isn’t allowed to assume power, or Maduro is tried under international law. 

The international law questions that the U.S. needs to address, is something the Trump administration already know about and have passed on to their podcast and media henchmen to discredit. The reason I suggest this is because on its face, the way in which the Trump administration handled the invasion violated some international laws. Meaning Maduro should be tried in international court. Now all of a sudden just about every pro Trump and conservative news anchor, right-wing journalist, and podcaster are propagating that there is no such thing as international law. 

In any case, the United Nations (U.N.) charter makes it illegal for a country to use force in another country’s sovereign territory without its consent in self defense rationale or from permission of the U.N. Security Council. This same charter that makes it illegal as an international law dispute is a ratified treaty in the U.S. and the constitution clearly states that ratified treaties are the supreme law of the land. Even if the DOJ were to point at domestic constitutional laws and use them to try Maduro in a U.S. court. Under article 1 of the constitution’s ‘Usurpation of power” this power is given to Congress as it states “Responsibility for transforming international obligation arising from non – self – executing treaty into domestic law falls to  Congress.” 

Another thing worth mentioning is that Trump admitted the reason he didn’t get the approval of Congress, like he was suppose to, was out of an unfounded belief that they would leak the information. 

Days after the U.S. invaded Venezuela, the U.N. held an emergency meeting to discuss Trump’s out of control behaviors, which were roughly violations of international law. Trump responded by withdrawing U.S. support from thirty-one U.N. related agencies. Many of these targets were advisory panels and commissions that focus on migration, labor and climate. Given that Trump’s interests have always been imperialistic and oil, despite the rest of the world slowly shifting away from it as an energy resource, it seems logical for him to distance himself from supporting anti exploitation and environmental institutions.

Something else I expect to be analyzed is whether Trump’s acts violated any U.S. constitutional laws, because as president, he had a constitutional duty to obey the U.N. charter. 

In the context of U.S. treachery the U.N. doesn’t seem to have a lot of binding force to deter Trump-like activities. But on a world stage and as front men of geopolitical affairs, historically, the U.S. has had obligations to at least explain why their actions didn’t violate international law. Or why their actions shouldn’t be a model for other countries to follow. 

Bush halfheartedly did it during the invasion of Iraq and now Trump has totally destroyed this ineffective, perfunctory method. When the New York Times asked him what if anything could stop him from doing whatever he wanted he replied “there’s one thing: my own morality, my own mind, that’s the only thing that can stop me.” 

The U.S. Senate voted to advance the war powers resolution, which would limit his ability to attack Venezuela without the approval of Congress. But this move was more symbolic than deterring, as Trump most likely will veto it. And he’s shown in words and deeds that he will hurdle the boundaries of Congress, and sidestep the guardrails of the constitution. 

What the Trump administration seems to not understand, or in the alternative, not care about, is that Trump’s filter-less verbiage is actually giving Maduro currency to use in court, and Trump naysayers to use in the political sphere. 

For one thing, the Trump administration is still left with the task of proving the charges against Maduro. Another thing is that when Noriega and Hernandez were tried in court, the presidents in office weren’t out parading their real motives, or bragging about the spoils they were stealing. They were more in tuned with keeping things secret to a fault. You would never hear someone in the Bush administration admit that they were really going into Iraq for oil. 

Despite what pundits say, Maduro’s case is not a situation where he will be thrown in front of a judge and how he got there, the invasion and everything leading up to his abduction be cast aside as irrelevant. This is not a situation where an intelligence agency came to terms, without the pressure of Trump, that Maduro is who the indictment says he is. This is an all out multi year Trump influenced coup d’etat to bump him out of the way because Maduro’s stranglehold on Venezuela stood in between him and Venezuela’s oil. 

For instance, it was Trump who encouraged the DOJ to get Maduro, who he alleges, leads the regime-sponsored enterprise cartel de los soles which coordinates with Tren de Aragua, indicted. 

It was Trump who authored the ‘Alien Enemies Act Regarding the invasion of the United States by Tren de Aragua (the proclamation), 90 Fed Reg 13034’ which outlined the Maduro inspired activities Tren de Aragua supposedly engaged in that posed a threat to Americans. Or in Trump’s own words “Maduro regime’s goal is to destabilize democratic nations in the Americas and in the U.S.” It was Trump’s Department of the Treasury that designated Tereck El Aissami as a specially designated narcotics trafficker under the ‘Foreign Narcotics Kingpin Designation Act, 21 U.S.C. § 1901 et seq.’ Which didn’t take place until he was promoted from Governor of Aragua to vice president of Venezuela in 2017. 

Remember these charges allege a broader conspiracy that involve Tren de Aragua, the Colombian paramilitary group FARC, and a mission to torture, kidnap, murder, bribe, and transport drugs from Venezuela to Florida via Venezuelan gangs illegally entering the country. 

One of the questions surrounding the U.S. Government’s argument will be explaining why Maduro and Tren de Aragua is the focus of narco terrorism, when there are other countries who export far more drugs and pose a bigger threat. And as designated terrorists, why suspected members weren’t charged with Maduro, but deported back to Where they can recalibrate the threat.

Another question concerns the boat strikes Trump authorized in the Caribbean and the pacific. Some time ago the media and the public were looking for answers when it was discovered that two unidentified people clinging to one of the destroyed boats and waving in distress for help, were hit a second time to finish them off. 

There was a call to publicly release footage of the second strike, as footage of the first strike circulated, when there was a split down party lines as to whether the two men posed a threat, or were non combative troops. Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, claimed footage of the second strike would not be released and was deemed classified, under the absurd premise that showing that part to the public would expose top secret military strategies. 

If the occupants on these boats were too dangerous to capture and be taken to face criminal charges in a U.S. court, why were resources used and lives risked to pluck Trump’s boogeyman, Maduro, and his wife out of their home and ship them to a New York detention center to faces charges the boat operators were supposedly taking part in. Especially when other Venezuelan officials facing these same charges were left in power and given the liberty to work with Trump to repair U.S./Venezuelan relations. Or in other words, come to the coerced agreement that their oil reserves will be controlled by him. 

And there’s still the question on why two survivors of a strike were sent back to Ecuador and Colombia, not sent to face charges. 

Attorney General Pam Bondi spoke on the capture and stated that Maduro was brought to the U.S. so he could “face the wrath of the justice system.” Even this comment shows that Trump, the DOJ and others involved have a predisposed plan to punish Maduro beyond law and order, not give him a fair trial. Common sense tells me if he’s involved in smuggling, he’s not the world’s supplier of drugs, or someone requiring this much attention. 

Common sense also tell me this whole entire ordeal teems with lies, deceit, intergovernmental corruption and Rodriguez possibly being one of the sources, if not the source, that bugged Maduro’s home, got eighty of his security staff and citizens killed and him into the hands of U.S. imperialism. And her slipped in as a puppet to keep Maduro’s military at bay while Trump rapes their land of it’s natural resources. 

The U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff chair Daine Caine, proudly announced to the media details of how Maduro was captured. This included revealing that they had a way to monitor what he ate, when he came to and fro and things he said, meaning physical and electronic surveillance was used. Hegseth corroborated this information when he gushed that just before the bombs burst and Maduro was captured, his wife mentioned the sound of helicopters nearing in. Not only is information this detailed classified, it debunks Hegseth’s reason for not wanting to release footage of the second strike. 

At this point, to believe Maduro’s administration and Tren de Aragua really posed this big of a threat to the U.S. before Trump got his greedy hands on their oil, and this threat mysteriously diminishing after the fact, is to believe in Santa. 

If Maduro’s defense alleged a conspiracy that involved Trump using his capture to further the U.S. interest in Venezuela and Latin America, his defense would have to be taken seriously. Whether Maduro is a dictator, evil man or stole the 2024 election is not what the U.S. indicted him on. The scope and focus will have to be on his role in this alleged international conspiracy and the evidence tying him to each act he’s accused of committing. 

Given the Trump administration disclosing Intel on how and why Maduro was captured, suggests that what’s classified and what’s not is dictated by whether the info harms them. Or whether it serves the basis for their manly posturing.

Since invading Venezuela, Trump hasn’t even made an effort to sell to the public that his top priority isn’t getting oil companies to invest in Venezuelan oil. He hasn’t released a plan on how he intends to deal with the threat, he’s convinced those to believe, Tren de Aragua still poses to the U.S. Nor did the New York Times question him about this in past interviews he’s done since the invasion. This makes it quite clear that this existential threat is something Trump concocted, like so many other lies he’s told. 

What we are left with is a corrupt president who ostensibly tells lies, promote violence, act with racial animus and is obsessed with getting credit and having historic things named after him. So why at this point should anybody believe anything he says about the invasion, when he’s showing the world why he launched the invasion and who the existential threat really is. 

It seems logical for him to have at least had the audacity to explain what measures will be taken to deal with Tren de Aragua amidst trying to convince oil execs to invest $100 billion to rebuild the oil fields’ infrastructure. 

But when the FBI, DOJ, DHS, and every Republican led branch of government is in his full control, there is no restraint on what he will do, who will cover up his crimes and what innocent people will be collateral damage in these schemes. That’s because whatever narrative they choose to spin won’t be based in fact, it will be based in chosen realities. 

Here recently he signed an executive order meant to protect any money made from the millions of barrels of oil he’s already seized, or will sell, from being tied up in any judicial proceedings. China has contracts with Venezuela for a lot of oil fields, so I presume this to be a move Trump made to prevent any delays that might come with the short period of time he has to profit, and the legal woes that are sure to come from the five oil tankers he had seized. 

What makes Maduro’s capture unusual and obvious is that in Trumps first year in office he pardoned Ross William Ulbricht, an online king pin drug dealer serving life in federal prison, that ran the underground website Silkroad, where he sold every drug imaginable. Ulbricht’s mother donated to Trump’s campaign. 

He also released narco terrorist Khan Mohammed in a prisoner swap, who was serving a life sentence in federal prison for importing opium and heroin into the United States from Afghanistan. Then he pardoned former Honduran president Hernandez, who I mentioned earlier as being involved in shipping 400 tons of cocaine into the U.S. Plus the politicians that were convicted for fraud and scamming donors and the 1500 January 6 insurrectionists. 

On top of this he has had Bondi attempt to forge bogus indictments on his political foes. 

While he tried to justify these pardons as giving justice to victims of the Biden administration. What this entails is that his interests aren’t in preventing threats from narco terrorists, but releasing them under obvious quid pro quo agreements. If his reasons for pardoning convicted people is insensible to logic, why should we not think the same when he’s calling for them to be charged. 

It’s not a coincidence that on December 25 2025 he had Nigeria bombed under the notion that a terrorist network was killing Christians. There may in fact be Christians getting killed, but it’s more plausible that the air attack was aimed at one of Nigeria’s transit ports that are used to get drugs from the Dominican Republic and Colombia, into New York. What he seems to have done is sent a mob style message to Colombia and is now in talks to arrange a deal that will allow the flow of drugs to keep rolling. Since it’s impossible to stop drugs from entering the U.S. he’s trying to control it. 

While Maduro sits in jail as another of Trump’s pawns. The only ones to benefit off Venezuela will be Trump, oil execs and investors.
