On Jan. 3, 2026, U.S. Empire Delta Force special operators—in conjunction with the FBI, kidnapped Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife Cecilia Flores and extracted this politician and his spouse via helicopter from the Miraflores Palace of the Venezuelan government. The Miraflores Palace is a military fortress in Caracas, Venezuela, located within Fort Tiuna military base. From the Fort Tiuna military base, Nicolas Maduro and his wife were flown to the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in Brooklyn, New York, to face charges of narco-terrorism conspiracy, conspiracy to import cocaine, possession of machine guns and destructive devices, and conspiracy to possess machine guns. These charges are a false pretext to take control of Venezuela's oil, allow U.S. oil companies like Marathon Petroleum, Valero Energy, Exxon Mobil, Phillips 66 and Chevron to begin processing Venezuelan heavy crude at Gulf Coast refineries and to force Venezuela's government to compensate Exxon Mobil and Conoco Phillips for financial losses these companies incurred because of past Venezuelan government policies of Hugo Chavez and Nicolas Maduro in which Venezuela's state-owned gas and oil company (PDVSA) nationalized the assets of Exxon Mobil and Conoco Phillips that were being used in oil projects in the Orinoco Belt. Exxon Mobil's Orinoco Belt Project assets that Venezuela took in 2007 under Hugo Chavez included the Cerro Negro heavy oil upgrading project and La Ceiba field. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) estimates that less than 10 percent of cocaine shipments to the United States come through Venezuela. The vast majority of cocaine shipments originate in Colombia and move through the Pacific route in Mexico.
