You have not read or watched the CIA whistle blower Berntsen interviews about Cartel of the Suns. The history, their expansion, their controlling of multiple networks, their growth into the world’s largest mega cartel. How they have assumed control of other networks, internationally. Yes including fentanyl. The contracted narcos running the go-fast smuggling boats….just one source of their revenue. If we destroy that, its a start. Its about more than cutting off drugs…its about cutting off some of their power and money. Though Trump and Hegseth pixxing off cocaine runners and dealers losing money and cartel protection…excellent

This is not about one country, its become international. Global even.

Nor have you watched read or heard any of the reports done by Emerald Robinson on the Venezuelan election manipulation. Gary Berntsen, Patrick Byrne and others. Reported by Lara Logan and others. Thanks to patriots, The Venezuelan whistle blowers are under US protection. The 2024 election was saved because these people took action.

Do some research.
Maduro is a tool and a cancer. Needs to go.

If you want to believe Gary Bentsen and Emerald Robinson et al, you’ll believe them, and nothing will change your mind.

Why didn’t the DEA report mention anything at all about “Cartel of the Suns”? Hmm.

This academic researcher seems to think the Cartel of the Suns is something of a fairytale:

Is he any more or less credible than Bentsen?

How about this?

Any more of less credible than Bentson and Robinson?

I’ve got doubts all around, but I don’t find Bentsen and Robinson all that credible on this subject. (And Emerald Robinson went all in on that nutty conspiracy theory about the Covid vaccines containing luciferase — oh dear!)

And the question remains: why is all this only coming from this loose cannon guy Bentsen? Why not so much as a mention in the DEA report?

Best I can tell, the so-called “Cartel of the Suns” is likely as described here, not the Humongous Scary Behemoth alleged by Berntsen::

“The Cartel of the Suns is a term used to describe groups within Venezuela’s armed forces implicated in a wide range of criminal activities, including gasoline smuggling, illegal mining, and other corruption schemes – most notably drug trafficking.

Rather than a hierarchical organization, the Cartel of the Suns functions as a loose network of cells within the army, navy, air force, and Bolivarian National Guard (Guardia Nacional Bolivariana – GNB), spanning from the lowest to the highest ranks. These groups operate essentially as drug trafficking organizations.

It is not clear how these cells relate to one another, or whether they interact at all.”

It’s an interesting article (with no love for Chavez or Maduro!).
