If that field goal goes through the uprights Mike Tomlin would be standing in those boots.

The helicopter crew got faked out. They thought Maduro was going back to the heliport. Instead they took the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel. They gave the media the slip.

At the presser the administration detailed the takedown was executed with intelligence that had to be provided by a source. That source is entitled to the reward. The source is being stiffed.

In past visits to New York, President Nicolás Maduro of Venezuela made Harlem — and its Black churches — a key stop. The self-described socialist leader tried to tie the Latin American fight against imperialism with the struggle of Black Americans against racism.

I used to work for Celebrity Cruises and La Guaira which was a port of call was known for the indigenous people and their crafts and culture. What a difference 4 decades makes. The people who sailed from this port on small boats brought food to nearby islands. Floating markets.
Sites in and around Caracas were struck, including the Tiuna military base, La Guaira, a port north of the capital, and La Carlota airfield. We are tracking America’s campaign on Venezuela

Was Maduro attempting to acquire arms from China in a last ditch effort to stay in power. If a casualty count is high then the question is could he have been taken down less violently?
The United States carried out a large-scale attack on Venezuela overnight and captured President Nicolás Maduro, U.S. President Trump says in a statement.

It’s hard to believe that there are no casualties. Apparently he was said to be with a Chinese envoy so hopefully this situation doesn’t escalate.
I have spoken with Secretary of State Marco Rubio and our Ambassador in Caracas. The EU is closely monitoring the situation in Venezuela.
The EU has repeatedly stated that Mr Maduro lacks legitimacy and has defended a peaceful transition. (1/2)

The alleged drug cartels are stateless. So when they retaliate against the US they will go after tourists, resorts and any random attack they can strike. The local government will be blamed and it will go back and forth.
Breaking News: The C.I.A. is said to have conducted a drone strike on a port in Venezuela last week, the first known land strike after months of boat attacks.
