Likely Situation: Maduro is controlled by narco-gangs who in turn are controlled by globalist intel CIA/MI-6 and ALLIED with CCP. Maduro goes along as "figurehead" because if he does not, then they take him out. There is a Venezuelan Deep State just like here. Think good twin (Maduro/Nationalist) vs evil twin (Narco Gangs/Globalists). The Venezuelan military is likely also split.

There have been reported movements of two US military ships with 4000 Marines each (Amphibious Assault Ships), one in the Pacific and one in the Caribbean; both could move close enough to Venezuela to deploy troops or run missions into/out of Venezuela if needed. It would be a short WAR against S. American drug cartels who are now funded and backed (as allies) by the Chinese Communist Party. This is also the source of all the migrants and gang members and CCP agents coming across the Darien Gap in Panama (previously fully controlled by CCP), assisted by NGOs. They were being flown into Venezuela, then brought up into the US with the Biden Open Borders in ADDITION to the migrants flown directly into the US.

HYPOTHESIS: If Maduro is captured by US Forces (along with others cooperating), then he can cut a deal and give up all the narco-gangs and globalist connections, names, locations, and activities without getting murdered. Then the US military can go clean out the rats nest and allow the people of Venezuela (supported by Nationalist military faction) to publicly take back control of their country (with limited violence).
