Wow! 2026 President Trump takes on the dictators. Rubio sends a stern warning to Cuba: You Could Be Next! In a bold escalation of U.S. policy in the Western Hemisphere, Secretary of State Marco Rubio issued a stark warning to Cuban officials on January 3, 2026, implying they should feel uneasy following the overnight military operation that led to the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores.
During a press conference at President Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida, Rubio remarked that if he were a Cuban government official in Havana, he would "be concerned—at least a little bit." He highlighted Cuba's deep involvement in Venezuela, alleging that Maduro's personal security and intelligence apparatus were heavily staffed by Cuban operatives, effectively allowing Havana to exert significant control over its socialist ally.
The operation, described by the Trump administration as a targeted strike against narcoterrorism, involved elite U.S. forces neutralizing defenses and extracting Maduro from a military compound in Caracas. President Trump announced the success on social media, stating that Maduro and Flores were en route to New York to face long-standing federal drug trafficking charges.
Trump invoked a modern twist on the historic Monroe Doctrine, dubbing it the "Donroe Doctrine," to underscore U.S. determination to address threats in the region. He also turned attention to Mexico, commenting on President Claudia Sheinbaum by saying she is "very frightened of the cartels" that he claims dominate the country.
The moves drew sharp backlash across Latin America. In Havana, Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel addressed thousands at the Anti-Imperialist Tribune, branding the U.S. action a "criminal assault" and "state terrorism." He warned that the hemisphere is no longer Washington's "backyard" and called for global condemnation.
Critics, including some U.S. Democrats, questioned the operation's legality without congressional approval and raised alarms about potential resource grabs, given Venezuela's massive oil reserves. As Maduro's fate hangs in the balance, with demands for proof of his well-being, the incident has heightened fears of broader U.S. interventions in the region.
Final Word: Will Cuba be a target for US involvement? Probably!

Don't forget Democrat President Biden put a $ 25 million bounty on Maduros head.....Trump just collected.
I have to assume that Miguel is worried HIS drug trade will be lost.
Trump needs to watch his backside, the Cartel are not a forgiving people. From Cuba to Islam and into Israel, the South American Cartel do not have a national debit. But they do have the Federal Reserve Banking system to move that money around.
But, then again, the Federal reserve is not a part of the federal government. Also, they have no reserve! So, just what is the Federal Reserve. It is a big NOTHING. Donald should dissolve it. Down the drain!
President Trump will assume control over the federal reserve when Powell's term is up in the spring. Then things will get even better than they are right now already. Watch inflation drop even further and interest rates going back to zero.
The FED is unconstitutional Paul. Taxes are to be paid by tariffs, as Trump is doing, other than that which would be common and equal in principle, such as sales tax or usage tax, but to be paid in true currency. Paper is not currency. It is an IOU.
The FED is based upon fiat, which is fully a breach of our rights. A house based on nothing. Scripture says "A worker is worth his/her wages." We are paid in fiat, worthless paper Notes, accumlulated and counted in worthless accounts that hold exactly nothing in banks that own exactly nothing, except for the hard currency that they may be stockpiling in order to subdue the value of gold and silver, that any living human person may be trying to accumulate for the coming crash of fiat. THAT is coming. Proof is the rise of silver, real silver, as we speak. Silver dictates....
God hates the love of money. Money, biblically, has value. Fiat notes are not money. So, it is a double crime. No wages are truly paid as nothing is worth anything. The value of a piece of paper is nothing. The value of some account with a printed number on it is worth nothing. Our whole system is worth nothing of value.
Silver and Gold belong to God and is worth value, in which to pay people in trure value, whether into retirement funds, or weekly or biweekly or monthl\y pay of ttue value. And all of Congress, as much as their acccounts show, is still being paid with notes of no value. It is a house of cards. President Wilson knew this and said it on his deathbed. It has to ALL go away and true currency be restored. Currency is silver and gold. God bless our Trump/King David. Anointed to oversee this shaking of everything. We have embedded many financial unbibilical practices, such as contracts that require an attorney of legaleze to understand what is written on that worthless piece of paper.
It violates the Constitution. Easy to disolve. Where is the Constitutional permission for it to exist. There isn't.
It is not a Federal agency no does it have a reserve. It is air. POOF!
President Trump needs to clean up Venezuela, Cuba, Columbia, Mexico and all of Central America. Venezuela is just the first step but I don't think any further military operation is needed. Once he shows how well he can run Venezuela, all others will fall in line and will cooperate with President Trump. Nobody really has a choice anywhere because President Trump is utilizing the full strength of the USA.
Yes, about time!
