Did Trump Expose Venezuelan Militia Threat Video on Social Media?

President Donald Trump made conspicuous use of social media on Monday, posting a video alleged to depict Venezuelan women engaging in military training activities. This development follows earlier reports that tensions are mounting between the U.S. and Venezuela, specifically concerning issues of narcotics and illegal migrants.

Trump’s post on Truth Social bore the caption, “TOP SECRET: We caught the Venezuelan Militia in training. A grave threat!” Accompanying these words was a brief video of women, armed with rifles, seemingly being coached by Venezuelan military personnel.

This public display by Trump arrives on the heels of a stern warning he issued to President Nicolas Maduro’s government. He demanded the return of all prisoners whom he claimed Venezuela had coerced into the U.S., threatening an “incalculable” price for non-compliance. Details on these prisoners were scant, with only a vague reference to some being “people from mental institutions.”

The Trump administration has indeed intensified its efforts to stem the tide of narcotics flowing into the country, with the U.S. military conducting recent operations against suspected drug-trafficking vessels. Maduro, in response, has denied U.S. allegations of involvement in drug trafficking and has appealed to Trump for dialogue, according to a letter made public on Sunday by Caracas.

This letter, dated Sept. 6 and addressed to Trump, was dispatched days after the U.S. deployed warships off the Venezuelan coast and initiated the first in a series of attacks on boats allegedly involved in drug trafficking. The first attack resulted in 11 fatalities, and two additional strikes have been carried out despite Maduro’s appeal for peace in his letter.

The significance becomes clear when we consider the increasing tensions and the potential ramifications of such public displays. And that’s the way it is on this day, with many questions still unanswered about the escalating U.S.-Venezuela relations.
