In a breathtaking demonstration of American military superiority, President Trump's forces executed "Operation Absolute Resolve" on January 3rd, storming into Venezuela before dawn and capturing socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro and his narco-terrorist wife Cilia Flores in a precision operation that has sent shockwaves across the globe.

The lightning raid not only removed one of Latin America's most brutal dictators but also exposed the stunning failure of China's military technology. According to reports from The Epoch Times, Chinese-made radar defense systems completely collapsed under the weight of American military precision, leaving Maduro's regime defenseless against Trump's forces.

Social media erupted with analysis of the operation's implications. Owen Gregorian tweeted about the radar system failures, noting how "U.S. forces stormed into Venezuela before dawn on Jan. 3 and captured Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, in a lightning operation that punched in and out of Caracas."

"This operation proves that China's military exports are nothing more than expensive paperweights when faced with American resolve," one defense analyst observed.

But Trump isn't stopping there. The President announced that America will "start now hitting land" in a new phase of his war on drug cartels, signaling that Mexico could be next. As TrendViteZ posted on social media: "What happens if the fight moves onto Mexican soil next—and what are the global stakes?"

Cilia Flores, captured alongside her dictator husband, faces her own criminal charges related to Venezuela's narco-state operations. Her capture represents a devastating blow to the corruption network that has plagued Latin America for decades.

China's Strategic Nightmare

This operation exposes China's vulnerability in Latin America. For years, the Chinese Communist Party has been building influence across the region through military sales and economic partnerships. Now, with their defense systems proven worthless and their key ally in chains, Beijing faces a strategic predicament that threatens their entire Western Hemisphere strategy.

President Trump has once again proven that American strength, properly applied, can reshape global politics overnight. While the deep state spent years negotiating with dictators, Trump simply removed them.

The question now isn't whether America will continue this aggressive stance—it's which narco-state falls next. Patriots across America are watching as their President delivers on his promise to drain swamps worldwide.

About time someone dealt with the Venezuela situation. How many years have we watched that country fall apart while China moved in?

The mainstream media is probably scrambling to figure out how to spin this negatively. They can't stand when America wins! God bless our military and Commander in Chief.

Already seeing the liberal outlets trying to downplay this massive success.

If this is accurate, it's a game-changer for the entire region. China's been building influence in South America for decades and finally someone pushed back.

My son served two tours in the Middle East and always said we needed better intelligence coordination with our allies. Sounds like Trump figured that out. Prayers for our brave service members involved in this operation.

Semper Fi to whoever planned and executed this. Clean, fast, effective - that's how it's done.

This is incredible news but I'm wondering about the legal framework here. What's the international law situation with an operation like this?
