The scene unfolds outside a Manhattan federal courthouse where ousted Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro is being arraigned. Pro-Maduro protesters, some accused of being paid agitators, clash with opposing groups who support the U.S. action. The political divide extends to the Venezuelan community in the U.S. and includes various ideologies. Amidst this, the Trump administration has been working to remove Maduro. The current Vice President Delcy Rodriguez has stated the willingness of Caracas to cooperate with the United States. Maduro is facing charges of drug trafficking and related crimes following a U.S. military raid. Trump has warned of future strikes if Venezuela doesn't cooperate. Colombia has requested an emergency UN Security Council meeting supported by China and Russia. The Swiss government has frozen the assets of Maduro and his associates to prevent any outflow. The situation is complex, with claims and counterclaims circulating amidst a thick information war. Anti-war factions, libertarians, and even Trump supporters are against the invasion.
