Notes (20)
⚠️ The United States is moving to designate the Cartel de los Soles — linked to Nicolás Maduro’s regime — as a Foreign Terrorist Organization.
According to the State Department, the group is composed of senior Venezuelan officials who have used state structures to facilitate drug trafficking, violence, and transnational corruption. The FTO designation will give the U.S. expanded legal tools to target, sanction, and isolate this criminal network.
Washington also says the measure will strengthen cooperation with other countries in actions against narcoterrorism.
This move is already being interpreted by many as a direct ultimatum from the U.S. administration, signaling that Nicolás Maduro must negotiate his exit from power.
🇺🇸🇻🇪 U.S. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth: “President Trump ordered action — and the Department of War is delivering. Today, I’m announcing Operation SOUTHERN SPEAR. Led by Joint Task Force Southern Spear and @SOUTHCOM, this mission defends our Homeland, removes narco-terrorists from our Hemisphere, and protects our people from the drugs killing them. The Western Hemisphere is America’s neighborhood — and we will protect it.”
This is a historic shift. Venezuela’s dictatorship is now facing real consequences.
🚨According to CBS, senior U.S. military officials presented President Trump with updated options for possible operations in Venezuela — including ground strikes.
A reminder of how seriously Washington is treating the threat posed by Nicolás Maduro’s regime.”
Freedom House warns that the recent attack on two Venezuelan activists in Bogotá exposes the extreme vulnerability of those forced into exile by Nicolás Maduro’s regime. Transnational repression is not hypothetical — it’s happening now.
The attacks against Yendri and Peche, and the brutal murder of Lt. Ojeda in Chile, make the pattern undeniable. First, the dictatorship pushes 9.1 million Venezuelans out of the country. Then it makes sure that anyone who dares to speak for democracy and freedom is unsafe anywhere in the world. #Venezuela
🚨 BREAKING — Maduro enacts the “Comprehensive Defense Command” law and orders its immediate activation nationwide.
He warns: “To be prepared, if the Republic must go to armed struggle… be ready to win and triumph.” This escalates state militarization and raises the stakes for Venezuelans and the region.

🚨 Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell on the USS Gerald R. Ford’s arrival in Latin America:
“The U.S. presence under Southcom will strengthen our ability to detect, monitor, and disrupt illicit actors that threaten security and prosperity across the Western Hemisphere.”
America is moving decisively against transnational criminal networks.

🚨According to The Washington Post, if the United States were to launch a military attack against the Cartel of the Suns in Venezuela, it could consider the following targets:
* Venezuelan military bases
* Cocaine refining laboratories
* Clandestine airstrips
* Guerrilla camps
🚨 According to Reuters, Maduro’s dictatorship is preparing a guerrilla-style defense — deploying small military units across 280+ locations to carry out sabotage and irregular warfare.
A criminal regime turning Venezuela into a battlefield.

🚨 BREAKING | Reuters confirms Venezuela’s military is preparing a guerrilla-style response in case of a U.S. attack.
Maduro’s regime is deploying old Russian-made weapons and planning to sow chaos if U.S. forces strike — a desperate move that exposes the collapse of its army.
Commanders are reportedly negotiating with small businesses to feed their troops, as the regime can no longer supply them.
The Maduro dictatorship is a threat to the national security of the entire continent. In power, it destabilizes the region. Out of power, it threatens to become a danger to Venezuela’s future democratic government.

🚨 BREAKING: The USS Gerald R. Ford — the largest U.S. aircraft carrier — has arrived in the Caribbean under the command of U.S. Southern Command.
The deployment, ordered by President Donald Trump, strengthens America’s air and naval power near Venezuela amid rising tensions with Maduro’s regime. #Venezuela #Southcom #USSgeraldRFord #Caribbean #Freedom

🇻🇪 Venezuela is collapsing under Nicolás Maduro’s authoritarian rule.
The bolívar has lost over 400% of its value in a year.
Inflation is projected to hit 270%, the world’s highest.
86% of Venezuelans live in poverty while U.S. warships sink narco-boats off its coast.
This is the cost of tyranny.

🇺🇸 According to The Atlantic, Nicolás Maduro might consider a negotiated exit if the United States offers amnesty for him and his closest allies, lifts existing bounties, and ensures a comfortable exile. Sources familiar with the Caracas regime say pressure and incentives could push him to accept a transition.
“If there is enough pressure, and enough candy in the dish,” one source said, “everything is on the table with Maduro.” The quote reveals a dictator willing to trade power for guarantees — proof that strategic pressure, not concessions, is what brings the regime to the edge. #Venezuela
According to The New York Times, President Donald Trump could authorize airstrikes against dictator Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela once the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier arrives in the Caribbean.

🇻🇪Article 350 of the Constitution of Venezuela: “Venezuelans, faithful to their republican tradition, to their struggle for independence, peace, and freedom, shall disown any regime, legislation, or authority that violates democratic values, principles, and guarantees or encroaches upon human rights.”
To confront dictatorship, to oppose oppression, and to fight to reclaim freedom is not a choice. It is a constitutional duty of every Venezuelan.
Venezuela will be free. 🇻🇪

Don’t fall for the propaganda. Here are some facts about the U.S. military operation in the Caribbean 🇺🇸🌎
1. 🇻🇪 Venezuelans have tried every possible path to end the dictatorship. We’ve voted, we’ve protested, we built an interim government, we sat at negotiation tables. The dictatorship has mocked us every single time.
2. On July 28th, Venezuelans voted peacefully to remove Maduro from power. Maduro stole the election, committed fraud, and unleashed even more violence.
3. President-elect González and our leader María Corina Machado have been clear: we are ready to negotiate Maduro’s exit from power — to negotiate guarantees for their departure, not to give them more time as in the past.
4. The only war in Venezuela is the one Maduro declared against his own people.
5. 🇺🇸 A U.S.-led military operation in Venezuela would be lawful, legitimate, and necessary to remove Maduro from power. This isn’t idealism — Maduro is a direct threat to the stability of the continent and to the national security of the United States.
6. 🇻🇪 Venezuela will be free.

HOW MADURO’S DICTATORSHIP USES CRYPTOCURRENCIES TO DESTROY DEMOCRACY IN VENEZUELA⚡️⚡️⚡️
NGO Transparency Venezuela denounces that Nicolás Maduro’s regime uses cryptocurrencies as a tool for corruption, political control, and evasion of international sanctions.
According to the report, between 2017 and 2025, the Petro —presented as a “sovereign crypto asset”— served as a façade to divert public funds and trade oil opaquely. The so-called PDVSA-Crypto scheme caused an estimated $16.95 billion embezzlement.
The operation was led by Tareck El Aissami and former crypto superintendent Joselit Ramírez, both now detained. During that period, El Aissami held absolute control over Venezuela’s crypto system, manipulating institutions like Sunacrip, the Crypto Assets Treasury, and the Mining Registry.
After the collapse of the Petro in 2024, the regime launched a new phase using stablecoins such as USDC and USDT, operated by private companies linked to power —like Kontigo and Crixto Pay— to conduct massive, unregulated transactions.
Transparency Venezuela warns that this new scheme enables money laundering, currency arbitrage, and sanctions evasion, turning the regime’s crypto system into a parallel network of state corruption.

Rep. Carlos A. Gimenez: “The Cartel de los Soles is a terrorist gang like Al Qaeda — they must be completely annihilated. I applaud President Trump’s leadership in protecting America from the narcoterrorist threat.”
