Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro has just pleaded NOT GUILTY to federal drug and weapons charges in the U.S., charges that could send him to prison for life.
President Trump’s tough stance on corrupt regimes continues to shake the world. Under Trump’s policies and pressure, Maduro faces unprecedented accountability for decades of drug trafficking, weapons smuggling, and oppression in Venezuela.
Legal experts say this case marks a turning point: for the first time, a Venezuelan leader with deep ties to narcotics and authoritarian power is being forced to answer in a U.S. court.
Trump supporters are calling it a major victory for justice and a warning to corrupt leaders everywhere: no one is above the law.
