Also, Article II of the Constitution grants the President the authority to do this as a means to protect U.S. personnel from an actual or imminent attack.

It was a law enforcement action, genius. Maduro is the head of a drug cartel, had charges hanging over his head, had plenty of warning to leave, and he didn't, so he got arrested and will be brought to trial.
Are you old enough to remember Noriega? If so, do you recall Bush 41 being arrested for an illegal action? I didn't think so.
Not to mention, Rubio just said that no further action will be taken in Venezuela.
And that lawless regime in taiwan is on notice. As well as that lawless regime in south korea. And of course , the lawless regime in ukraine and poland. Pick and choose.
Thanks for reminding us you're still a moron.

U.S. used the narcotics angle to get Maduro. No doubt it is A reason why they went in. I think the real reason was to push China out of Venezuela. We all know what happens next - new leader of Venezuela who will be PRO America.
Okay by me. The Western Hemisphere belongs to the U.S.

Venezuela's so-called VP is down there demanding that Trump show "proof of life" for Maduro.
I think he should stop chirping and start running.

RE: Breaking: US hits Caracas
It was just revealed that the "Night Stalkers" were part of this assault.
Quote:The U.S. military's "Night Stalkers" are the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (SOAR), an elite U.S. Army unit known for providing highly specialized helicopter support for special operations forces, often conducting missions at night with incredible precision and secrecy. They fly modified aircraft like the MH-60 Black Hawk, MH-47 Chinook, and Little Birds for covert insertions, extractions, and resupply, famously supporting missions like the raid that killed Osama bin Laden, earning them the motto, "Night Stalkers Don't Quit."
Also, it was reported earlier that Maduro met with a Chinese ambassador last night, so obviously, China had no clue what was about to happen.

RE: Breaking: US hits Caracas
On issues of foreign affairs, my presumption is that none of you have any inside knowledge and that anyone claiming to know what’s what is just speaking out of his or her ass.
But when it comes to military tactics and capabilities, I know that we have some very knowledgeable posters. And I appreciate the shared insights.
This, in particular, is incredibly cool:

Although I weep no tears for Maduro and praise the performance of our outstanding military, I search for a justification for selecting the extraction option. Force should be the last resort.

I guess this means you finished humping putin?
"Russia is deeply concerned and condemns an “act of armed aggression” against Venezuela committed by the United States, the Russian Foreign Ministry says.
“In the current situation, it is important… to prevent further escalation and to focus on finding a way out of the situation through dialogue,” the ministry says in a statement."

It is so far off the irony scale that Russia would say sh1t about anyone committing an "armed act of aggression"

Who has the guns? Well, the drug cartels have guns and so does the military.
