Rubio Declares That Maduro Is NOT The President Of Venezuela
Here we go again? US Secretary of State Marco Rubio declared Sunday that the Venezuelan government is "illegitimate" in a written statement on X.
"Maduro is NOT the President of Venezuela and his regime is NOT the legitimate government," Rubio wrote on X. "Maduro is the head of the Cartel de Los Soles, a narco-terror organization which has taken possession of a country. And he is under indictment for pushing drugs into the United States."
This hearkens back to the days of trying to force the world to recognize Juan Guaidó as actual president, and the Venezuelan opposition leader has since faded into obscurity.
But currently, Rubio and the Trump administration are angry about the alleged shady circumstances surrounding Maduro's reelection win from last where, after which the Biden administration declared it was 'stolen'.
The Biden White House had insisted that that Edmundo González was the rightful president, after the US State Department-funded Carter Center produced analysis which pointed to alleged election rigging.
In February, the freshly installed Trump administration made its intentions toward Caracas clear when Secretary Rubio ordered the seizure a plane owned by the Venezuelan government, which was being held in the Dominican Republic.
And just days ago, on Friday, the Treasury Department on Friday designated Venezuela’s Cartel de los Soles - known in English as the Cartel of the Suns - as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT) entity, accusing President Maduro and senior members of his regime of leading the group (referenced in Rubio's latest tweet) and supporting major drug cartels whose activities threaten U.S. national security.

Houthis To Escalate Attacks On Ships Linked To Firms Dealing With Israel 'Regardless Of Nationality'
Just last week, Prime Minister Netanyahu recalled his Israeli negotiating team from Doha - which is certainly not a first instance - as talks broke down, also after the US representative mentioned dissatisfaction with Hamas' position.
On Sunday night, the Houthis of Yemen declared it will target merchant ships belonging to any company that does business with Israeli ports. This part is nothing new, but what is a renewed escalation is that the Houthis statement made clear this will be regardless of nationality as part of the next phase of its operations.
This Red Sea war has been going for a long time, and has featured direct ballistic missile attacks on Tel Aviv - which have been waning in the last weeks, but the resulting shipping disruptions have wreaked havoc on a vital global transit point through which an estimated $1 trillion in goods usually passes each year.
The Houthi statement said they had “decided to escalate their military support operations and begin implementing the fourth phase of the naval blockade” against Israel. This also as international reports have acknowledged rising famine and deaths from hunger in the Gaza Strip.
The fresh statement warns the Iran-backed militants would target "all ships belonging to any company that deals with the ports of the Israeli enemy, regardless of the nationality of that company, and in any location within the reach of our armed forces." This is regardless of any final destination, it warned.
International companies and governments must pressure Israel to stop the war in Gaza and lift its blockade on the Palestinian territory "if they want to avoid this escalation" - the statement warns further.
Escalation has indeed been on the rise, despite months ago Trump ordering the US Navy to wind down and withdraw from its war with the Houthis, while pressuring the Europeans to take a more active posture in the theatre.
Already in July the Houthis have attacked and sank two Liberian-flagged, Greek-owned bulk carriers – identified as the Magic Seas and the Eternity C. The Houthis have boasted of these assaults by issuing high-production quality films detailing the operations, which even involved boarding the vessels.

Maxwell challenges conviction citing Epstein deal
The Epstein plea deal’s shadow keeps stretching nearly two decades later, twisting justice into knots. Maxwell’s appeal highlights how one sweetheart agreement can tie up courts and fuel conspiracy theories for years. Meanwhile, accountability for that deal remains elusive, with key figures like Acosta long gone but the damage still unfolding.
