Late last night and early today, at my direction,

the United States Armed Forces conducted an

extraordinary military operation in the capital

of Venezuela. Overwhelming American military

power, air, land, and sea was used to launch

a spectacular assault, and it was a, an assault

like people have not seen since World War II.

It was a force against a heavily fortified military

fortress in the heart of Caracas to bring outlaw

dictator Nicolas Maduro to justice. This was

one of the most stunning, effective and powerful

displays of American military might and competence

in American history.
