Venezuela’s socialist regime will move forward with a widely condemned “election” on Sunday to install a governor and local legislators in “Guayana Esequiba”—a fictional state carved from Guyana’s sovereign Essequibo region. The Maduro regime claims the 61,600-square-mile, resource-rich territory as Venezuelan land, despite international recognition of Guyana’s administrative control.
President Donald Trump's special envoy for Special Missions of the United States, Ric Grenell, successfully secured the release of veteran Joseph St. Clair.
The socialist dictatorship of Nicolás Maduro is unlawfully detaining at least 31 foreign nationals under conditions of forced disappearance, according to a report from Infobae citing the Venezuelan non-governmental group Foro Penal and the CASLA Institute. These individuals are among 72 foreign political prisoners currently held by the regime, with 68 total prisoners reported missing inside the country’s opaque prison system.
A report from the National Intelligence Council found that FBI analysts believe that "some" Venezuelan officials enable gang members' migration into the United States.
President Donald Trump’s administration has petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to revoke Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for approximately 350,000 Venezuelan nationals, potentially subjecting them to deportation.
Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro announced his regime will turn this year’s May Day rally into a nationwide campaign demanding the return of a two-year-old girl placed in U.S. foster care and the release of 252 Venezuelan nationals tied to a violent foreign terrorist organization. The individuals were deported from the U.S. and transferred to El Salvador due to their affiliation with Tren de Aragua, a gang known for its involvement in murder, human trafficking, and drug crimes.
El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele doubled down Tuesday on his proposal to Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro: release 252 political prisoners—including Venezuelans and foreign nationals—in exchange for 252 Venezuelan deportees detained in El Salvador for alleged ties to the Tren de Aragua terrorist group.
