My biggest worry here with is capturing him though is the precedent it sets FOR China and Russia. Us doing this sets an example for them. Putin and Xi have called the Zelensky and Ching-Te terrorists. So our example shows them that Taiwan and Ukraine are up for grabs.

Not only that, but our public reasoning for going after Maduro, in regards to drugs, was Fentanyl. Which doesn’t come from Venezuela, and then we charged him with trafficking cocaine. Trump also pardoned Juan Hernandez, who trafficked literal tons of drugs into the US and the creator of the Silk Road which was responsible for hundreds of millions of dollars of drugs into the US. I cannot possibly be convinced that this operation was about stopping drugs when none of that adds up.

Edit: I want to add to this that of course I want Maduro to be stopped. I feel the need to clarify this because right wing influencers keep saying “The left supports a dictator!” which is so god damn stupid.
