The #Trump admin is set to ramp up pressure on Venezuelan President Maduro on #Monday by designating the #CartelDeLosSoles as a foreign #terrorist organization [#FTO].The designation is the latest measure in the Trump admin’s escalating campaign to purportedly combat drug trafficking to the US. The move comes as Trump evaluates whether to take #military action against #Venezuela, which Trump has not ruled out.#WagTheDog #law #Constitution #Congress #WarPowers https://apnews.com/live/trump-news-updates-11-24-2025

Land strikes or other actions would be a major expansion of the monthslong operation that has included a massive #military buildup in the #Caribbean Sea & striking boats accused of trafficking drugs, killing >80 people.But the entity that the #Trump admin alleges is led by #Maduro is not a #cartel per se. Venezuelans began using the term #CartelDeLosSoles in the 1990s to refer to high-ranking military officers who had grown rich from drug-running.#law #Venezuela #Congress #WarPowers

As #corruption later expanded nationwide, first under the late President Hugo Chávez & then under #Maduro, its use loosely expanded to #police & #government officials as well as activities like illegal mining & fuel trafficking. The “suns” in the name refer to the epaulettes affixed to the uniforms of high-ranking #military officers.#Trump #criminal #law #murder #ExtrajudicialKillings #CartelDeLosSoles #InternationalLaw #Constitution #Congress #WarPowers #Carribean #Pacific #AbuseOfPower
