What Is The End-Game Of The US-Venezuela Situation

 The US-Venezuela crisis has escalated dramatically since President Trump's inauguration in January 2025, building on longstanding tensions over Nicolás Maduro's disputed 2024 election victory, economic collapse, mass migration, and alleged narco-terrorism. 

No doubt....the US views Maduro's regime as illegitimate, a hub for drug cartels, a launching point for Tren de Aragua, and a vector for illegal immigration and fentanyl flows into the US. 

Just for the record....I seriously doubt that the fentanyl flow amounts to more than 5-percent of the product.

Invasion?  No.  Maduro is likely adding up his days.....looking at an exit, and various military folks reviewing their take-over chances.  The Tren de Aragua and cartel folks?  They need a phase II point.
