Donald Trump promised “no new wars” and somehow, despite everything, people believed him. We’re not even a year into his second term, and all indications are that the combined might of the U.S. Military is aimed squarely at Venezuela.
Over the weekend, Trump ominously declared that Venezuelan airspace is now closed, and multiple MAGA Republicans have been beating the war drum in appearances on news networks. Trump’s flimsy justification for attacking Venezuela is that he’s defending the United States from drug smugglers.
