       Seven #US #warships, along with one #nuclear-powered fast #attack #submarine, are either in the region or are expected to be there soon, bringing along more than 4,500 sailors & #marines.#Trump has said combating drug #cartels is a central goal for his admin & US officials have told Reuters that the #military efforts aim to address threats from those cartels.#geopolitics #MilitaryState #WarMongering

       [Sociopath] #StephenMiller, deputy White House chief of staff, said on Friday the #military buildup was aimed to "combat & dismantle drug trafficking organizations, criminal #cartels & these foreign terrorist organizations in our hemisphere."But it is unclear exactly how the US military presence would disrupt the drug trade.#geopolitics #Trump #MilitaryState #WarMongering

       Among other things, most of the seaborne #drug trade travels to the #UnitedStates via the #Pacific, not the #Atlantic, where the US #military forces are, & much of what arrives via the #Caribbean comes on clandestine flights.#Venezuela officials believe their government might be the real target.#geopolitics #Trump #MilitaryState #WarMongering

       In early August, the #UnitedStates doubled its reward for information leading to the arrest of #Venezuela President Nicolas #Maduro to $50 million over allegations of #DrugTrafficking & links to #criminal groups.Maduro, Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello & the country's ambassador to the #UN Samuel Moncada have said the #US is threatening the country with the naval deployments, in violation of international #treaties.#geopolitics #Trump #MilitaryState #WarMongering

       "#Venezuelans know who is behind these #military threats by the #UnitedStates against our country," #Venezuela Defense Minister General Vladimir Padrino said at a civil #defense event on Friday, without offering further details. "We are not drug traffickers, we are noble & hard-working people."While US #CoastGuard & #Navy ships regularly operate in the Southern #Caribbean, the current buildup far exceeds the usual deployments in the region.#geopolitics #Trump #MilitaryState #WarMongering

       @Nonilex Imagine how many children could eat and have healthcare or how many homeless could be housed in America with $50 million 🤔

       In the naval force are #warships, including USS San Antonio, USS Iwo Jima, & USS Fort Lauderdale. Some can carry aerial assets like helicopters while others can also deploy Tomahawk cruise missiles.The #US #military has also been flying P-8 spy planes in the region to gather intelligence, US ofcls have said. They have been flying over international waters.The #Trump admin has claimed it can use the military to go after drug #cartels & #criminal groups & has directed the #Pentagon to prepare.

       @Nonilex maybe this is one reason trump wants to rename DoD to DoW. If you’ve got the assets why don’t you use them or something like that he said about nukes.

       "Entre otras cosas, la mayor parte del tráfico marítimo de drogas llega a Estados Unidos a través del Pacífico, no del Atlántico, donde se encuentran las fuerzas militares estadounidenses, y gran parte de lo que llega por el Caribe se realiza en vuelos clandestinos.Las autoridades venezolanas creen que su gobierno podría ser el verdadero objetivo."@Nonilex

       @Nonilex "I applaud whoever decided (probably Miller himself) to have Stephen Miller act increasingly as “spokesman” for this Administration’s policies. He is so fundamentally repellent that I suspect even loyal MAGA adherents get the heebie-jeebies when they listen to him,& ask themselves, “Am I w/this guy?”-- Sherrilyn Ifill
