Trump's War on Drug Trafficking

The article investigates the link between the U.S. government, the CIA, and drug trafficking, arguing that the U.S.'s true goal is not the fight against drugs, but the undermining of the sovereignty of Latin American countries. It analyzes historical examples, from the CIA's cocaine operation to Donald Trump's current actions against the Venezuelan government and the Cartel of the Suns.


Trump's War on Drug Trafficking

As expected, in similarity to the case of Manuel Noriega, the local trustee, Guillén Dávila, was abandoned by his instructors and ended up being accused of trafficking 22 tons of cocaine to the United States.

The note, located on the front page, named an operation, supposedly organized to infiltrate distribution networks within the United States, which was executed in collusion with then-head of the Venezuelan National Guard's Anti-Drug Service, General Ramón Guillén Dávila, eight years before Hugo Chávez's electoral victory in 1998.

Surprisingly, the sudden interference of the Department of Justice prevented charges from being brought against the highest-ranking officials of the CIA.

Following Hugo Chávez's electoral victory on December 6, 1998, the activities of the Agency, along with its local executor, Guillén Dávila, were suppressed.

The United States government does not combat drug trafficking.

The reason for the rejection of the Bolivarian leader was directly linked to the loss of its ability to continue doing business with the CIA.

Donald Trump decided on November 24 to designate the Cartel of the Suns as a foreign terrorist organization, without providing any evidence of its activities and/or its illicit activities.

His president, Daniel Noboa, recently lost four popular consultations, but as one of the closest hemispheric partners of Trumpism, he is not forced to endure the presence of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers off his coasts.

The former U.S. ambassador to Panama, John D. Feeley, who had warned about the reinstallation of Colombian cartels in Ecuador since the government of Lenin Moreno, recalled how the State Department used Ahmad Chalabi to justify the invasion of Iraq.

Their real war is against the sovereignty of Latin America and the Caribbean.

On November 20, 1993, The New York Times published in its morning edition a column by reporter Tim Weiner detailing the shipment by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) of a ton of maximum-purity cocaine from Colombia.

He announced the closure of the airspace of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela on the same day he granted a pardon to the former Honduran president, Juan Orlando Hernández, sentenced to 45 years in prison in 2024 for associating with the leader of the Sinaloa Cartel, Joaquín Guzmán, alias "El Chapo".

Representative Jim Himes, of Connecticut, a member of the House Intelligence Committee, pointed out last week that there are two possibilities: they are killing innocents or, alternatively, "poor former fishermen who earn 300 dollars for carrying cocaine to Trinidad and Tobago," 50 kilometers from Venezuela.

The Trumpist war against drug traffickers reached its most grotesque expression in recent hours.

What Pforzheimer omitted is to accept that the murders allow the government to spread its commitment in the fight against the narco without touching the big players of the mafias, who can become entrepreneurs with influential tentacles in Washington.

Meanwhile, member of the House Armed Services Committee Sara Jacobs considered that the actions ordered by Trump are simple "extrajudicial executions" that violate international law.

The former diplomat Annie Pforzheimer, a world specialist in drug trafficking, rhetorically asked why the crews are not detained. Such captures, she pointed out, could allow for an ascent in the chain of criminal responsibilities.

"It is time to summon the ghost of Chalabi," Feeley pointed out, to compare the role played by the Iraqi in the war requests required by the current leader of the 'scolopendras,' María Corina Machado.

The ton of cocaine was eventually fragmented and commercialized in major cities of the United States, with the consequent enrichment of the members of the Agency and Guillén Dávila, inaugurating the myth of the Cartel of the Suns.

Weiner's column deepened the television report presented by journalist Lowell Bergman for the popular program 60 Minutes. The block was titled "The Cocaine of the CIA" and in one of its sections, the head of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), Robert Bronner, accused the Agency's officials of conceiving the Cartel of the Suns together with Guillén Dávila.

Both businesses, curiously, where the Trump family has a solid history of acquisitions and sales.

The communications do not detail the names, ages, or causes of the interventions carried out with artillery and missiles.

In the early 21st century, Chalabi became the most influential Iraqi citizen in George W. Bush's administration for its 2003 invasion.

Years later, in 2007, Guillén Dávila was arrested along with his son, Captain Tomás Guillén Korinski, accused by military judge Mariano Mosquera of participating in a plot against Chávez's government.

The latest detailed DEA report states that 90% of the drug trade destined for the United States transits through the Western Pacific (Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia), while only 8% comes from the Eastern Caribbean, where the coasts of Venezuela are located.

In the last month, U.S. troops, stationed in the Eastern Caribbean, have killed, according to State Department reports, 83 people.

According to the Department of Justice, the amount of money laundering from the illegal drug trade is estimated at 29 billion dollars in the United States.

While Marco Rubio insists on demonizing the Bolivarian government with fallacies, a month ago, agents of the National Aeronaval Service of Panama seized a new drug shipment, coming from the port of Guayaquil, with destination to Valencia, Spain.

The money laundering generated by drug trafficking is reinvested in productive investment, especially in the real estate and gambling sectors.

The grotesque Nobel Prize laureate is currently plagiarizing from Chalabi: insists on provoking a foreign intervention aimed at generating an irregular war that could set fire to Latin America and the Caribbean.

The most recent report of the World Customs Organization (WCO), published in mid-2025, details that 30% of all cocaine detected in maritime containers (around 80 tons seized) had declared, as the port of shipment, some port of Ecuador.

The journalistic investigation led to a judicial investigation handled by a Miami grand jury, which concluded with the dismissal of a high-ranking Agency official and the resignation of others.

The deputy assistant secretary of defense for the United States, William Luti, described him as the "George Washington of Iraq," before the collaborator was sentenced to 22 years in prison for fraud in Jordan. "It's incredible how these characters," added Feeley, "are stupid enough not to remember recent history..."

Most of the U.S. press, such as Michelle Goldberg from The New York Times, point out that that group "does not exist".

In this way, it was possible to make invisible and protect the responsibilities of those who had been their promoters in Langley, Virginia.

He promotes it.

He called for Western intervention after providing false information about Saddam Hussein's biological weapons factories.
