Declassified Memo Exposes Trump’s False Pretext for Deportations
A declassified intelligence memo confirms that U.S. intelligence agencies contradicted President Trump’s claim linking Venezuelan President Maduro to the criminal gang Tren de Aragua, a claim used to justify deporting Venezuelan migrants to a Salvadoran prison. The memo revealed that while Venezuela’s environment enables the gang’s operations, there’s no evidence of direct Maduro control or policy of cooperation. This contradicts Trump’s assertion, prompting a Justice Department investigation into the leak of allegedly inaccurate information. The memo’s release highlights the discrepancy between the administration’s justification and intelligence findings, underscoring the importance of transparency in government actions.
