Trump Announces Victory in Venezuela

“All Venezuelan military capacities were rendered powerless,” as U.S. forces “successfully captured Maduro in the dead of night,” he announced.

Trump said both Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, had been captured and would face legal charges in the Southern District of New York.

He called the operation “one of the most stunning, effective, and powerful displays of American military might and competence in American history.”

“It was an assault against a heavily fortified military fortress in the heart of Caracas,” Venezuela’s capital. He said no operation like it has been “seen since World War II.”

“Not a single American service member was killed and not a single piece of American equipment was lost,” Trump added.

He said U.S. forces were ready to stage a second and larger attack, but that seems unnecessary at this point.

The Trial of My Life Begins Monday

There comes to a point in every man's life when you wonder how history will remember you ... .No matter what happens in my RIGGED trial, I know with absolute confidence that history will say: “Rudy W. Giuliani was a fighter.”

I fought the Mafia, I fought violent criminals, I fought corruption, I fought the Deep State agents who tried to frame and destroy my client – President Trump.

Now, at 81 years old, rather than fighting for someone else’s freedom and justice, I find myself fighting for my own.

Wisconsin Judge Convicted of Obstructing Arrest of Immigrant Resigns as GOP Threatens Impeachment

By the Associated Press, Josh Funk 

Embattled Wisconsin Judge Hannah Dugan, who was convicted of obstruction last month for helping an immigrant evade federal officers, has sent her resignation letter to the governor.

The letter was sent Saturday. Republicans had been making plans to impeach her ever since her Dec. 19 conviction. A spokesperson for Gov. Tony Evers, a Democrat, said his office received Dugan’s letter, and he would work to fill the vacancy without delay.

Dugan wrote that over the past decade she handled thousands of cases with “a commitment to treat all persons with dignity and respect, to act justly, deliberately and consistently, and to maintain a courtroom with the decorum and safety the public deserves.”
