A grotesque Garbage Pail Kids-style trading card satirizing Trump's claim that U.S. military forces captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, depicting him as an exploding mofongo monster snagged in a giant net during "Operation Southern Spear."
President Donald Trump announced that the United States carried out a large-scale military strike on Venezuela early Saturday, during which Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, were reportedly captured and flown out of the country. Explosions were heard across Caracas and other regions as the operation unfolded. The U.S. government said the special forces operation aimed to detain Maduro, who is facing U.S. criminal charges, though independent confirmation remains pending. Venezuela’s government declared a state of emergency, condemned the strikes as foreign aggression, and demanded proof of life for Maduro and his wife. International reactions vary, with some calling for de-escalation and respect for international law.
