This has shit all to do with drugs.

It's a two-fer, grabbing rights to oil field profits, and to distract us from the the fact that the Epstein files are being withheld form us because they very likely show that our president availed himself of Epstein's human trafficking of underage girls for sex.

“… The authoritarian socialist state has arrested at least eight economists and consultants this year after they published information about inflation. They included Rodrigo Cabezas, a finance minister under Hugo Chávez, Maduro’s socialist predecessor and mentor.

The government has denied that Venezuela risks hyperinflation. Officials have accused Washington of waging an economic war against the country — which has, indeed, been battered by years of U.S. sanctions, as well as government mismanagement, cronyism and corruption.

… A decade of extreme economic hardship and more than two of political persecution have driven more than 7 million people from the country.

Venezuelans are now the world’s largest refugee population….”

“… Maduro last week ordered the creation of an app for Venezuelans to report “everything they see and hear.” Then he asked the Supreme Court, which he controls, to come up with a way to strip anyone who asks for a military intervention of their citizenship.

Maduro wants to apply such a measure to opposition leader Leopoldo López, a former political prisoner now living in exile in Spain, Vice President Delcy Rodríguez explained….”

No, it's so he can put pressure on congress to rename the DOD as the War Department.

Also, if there's a constant "war" the he can use his war powers to suspend habeas and probably suspend or at least postpone the election bc of "national security"

Administration officials went to great lengths to conceal their planning. Deferring the strike decision for a fortnight appeared in keeping with the mission’s attempts at diversion — a tactic designed to obscure the attack plans, even though Trump held off giving a final go-ahead until Saturday, according to senior US officials.
