I know it's CNN, so I wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw them, but is Venezuela colluding with the US in bombing "targets" in its own country now?
If Venezuelan security authorities knew where this guy was and wanted him for cartel crimes, then why didn't they just go get him themselves? Why invite the US in to bomb shit and carry out more extrajudicial killings? Haven't they had enough of Trump and Kegsbreath murdering their people on land and at sea?
