The U.S. military conducted another strike against a Venezuelan drug cartel vessel in international waters, resulting in the death of three individuals. President Trump stated the target was a violent drug trafficking cartel threatening U.S. interests and provided a video of the event, though details on the evidence were scarce. This strike follows a prior similar action, as the U.S. has a significant military buildup in the southern Caribbean, including aircraft and warships. The Trump administration has indicated further strikes may occur and claims self-defense as justification, while the Venezuelan government, accused of involvement, has accused the U.S. of seeking regime change.

Maurene Comey, the federal prosecutor involved in the Ghislaine Maxwell case, has filed a lawsuit alleging her politically motivated dismissal. The lawsuit claims the firing, which occurred without explanation shortly before the Trump administration made a deal with Maxwell, was a violation of due process. Comey, daughter of former FBI Director James Comey and a prosecutor on cases involving Maxwell and Sean “Diddy” Combs, asserts the termination was retaliatory due to her father’s adversarial relationship with the former President. The timing of her firing raises questions, especially in light of the subsequent meeting between Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche and Maxwell, who praised Trump. The lawsuit names several defendants, including the Department of Justice and the Executive Office of the President, seeking reinstatement through a jury trial.
