Trump and his Waterloo
Today we woke up not only to a cold morning, but also to a world that will never be the same again. Trump decided to invade a neutral state. What is the difference between the invasion of Ukraine - by Putin and Venezuela - by Trump? After all, we would find certain differences. But the connection of these psychopaths of today only reflects the fact that they are also just puppets in the hands of higher-ups.

Democrats mock Trump over Maduro's capture
The Democratic Party's Oversight Committee criticized Donald Trump and noted that Nicolás Maduro was captured on the very day the Department of Justice was scheduled to explain its redactions in the Epstein files.
In a social media post, the Democratic Oversight Committee mocked President Donald Trump, pointing out that the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife took place on the day the Department of Justice was supposed to explain its redactions in the Epstein documents.
According to CBS News, Trump announced that Maduro and his wife were "captured and flown out of the country" early Saturday morning amid a "large-scale U.S. operation."

"We are sure this is just a coincidence, but today is the legal deadline for the Department of Justice to explain its redactions in the Epstein documents," the Oversight Dems wrote on X. "We have not forgotten, and we will not relent—regardless of new unconstitutional actions by the president."
The release of newly published documents related to Jeffrey Epstein sparked criticism from various public officials due to the extensive redactions. Democratic Representative Ro Khanna, who co-authored legislation on transparency of the Epstein files together with Republican Thomas Massie, stated that "the most important documents are missing" from the released materials.
Massie, who led efforts to force a vote on the full release of DOJ files related to the Epstein investigation, said the document release "grossly violates both the spirit and the letter of the law" that Trump signed.
The capture of Nicolás Maduro
Maduro and his wife landed in New York on Saturday afternoon, January 3, to face federal charges related to drug trafficking and cooperation with gangs designated as terrorist organizations. The Venezuelan president denied the accusations.
The operation to capture Maduro was carried out by the U.S. Army's Delta Force, an elite special operations unit, officials told CBS News. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said in an interview with Tony Dokoupil on a special edition of CBS Evening News that "President Trump sets the conditions" for the governance of Venezuela.
Let's break this down piece by piece
Trump is a creation of the Italian mafia. He once said so himself—literally:
"I don't want cameras all over my office when I'm dealing with contractors, politicians, mobsters, and everyone else I have to deal with in my business," Trump said during a panel discussion at the Museum of Television and Radio in Los Angeles in 2004. "You know, mobsters don't like it when they're talking to me and there are cameras all over the room. It would look good on television, but it doesn't look good for them."
Multiple media outlets have compared Trump's behavior and language to that of mafia figures, noting that his speech is often peppered with expressions typically used by mafia members, such as the late Gambino family boss John Gotti.
Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen—currently serving a three-year federal prison sentence for tax evasion and campaign finance violations—also stated in February testimony before the House Oversight and Reform Committee that Trump behaves "very much like a mobster." And Cohen would know—he himself allegedly had mafia contacts.
It may be common for a major New York real estate developer and landlord to encounter individuals connected to the mafia. The Five Families of New York historically exerted influence over the city's construction unions and private waste management companies. Nevertheless, Trump's history of friendly—and at times ethically questionable—interactions with mafiosi is remarkably long and complex.
To break it down, we compiled a list of the most significant known contacts between Trump and the mafia:
Roy Cohn
Roy Cohn, infamous as one of New York's most aggressive and ruthless lawyers, worked for Senator Joseph McCarthy, numerous New York mobsters—including members of the Genovese crime family—and for Trump. Cohn became Trump's lawyer in the 1970s, and reportedly the two spoke by phone up to five times a day.
Many of Cohn's mafia-linked clients also controlled large portions of New York's construction unions. Trump hired construction companies run by mob bosses Anthony "Fat Tony" Salerno and Paul Castellano to build Trump Plaza and Trump Tower.
Local 95 Union
The Genovese-family-dominated Local 95 union employed large numbers of non-union, illegal Polish and South Korean demolition workers. Trump used these illegal workers in 1979 to demolish the Bonwit Teller department store to make room for Trump Tower.
Trump denied knowledge of the illegal labor, yet in 1991 he was fined $325,000 for participating in a conspiracy to violate fiduciary duty. The case was settled, and it remains unclear how much of the fine Trump actually paid.
John Staluppi
According to Newsweek, Trump signed his first licensing deal in 1988 with a luxury limousine company owned by John Staluppi, "likely" a member of the Colombo crime family.
Daniel Sullivan
Daniel Sullivan, a physically imposing social figure with a criminal past and mafia ties, began working for Trump as a "labor consultant." The two later ran a drywall company linked to an extortion scheme involving the carpenters' union and the Genovese family.
Sullivan introduced Trump to Kenneth Shapiro, a financier for Philadelphia mobster Nicodemo "Little Nicky" Scarfo, with whom Trump signed a land lease deal in Atlantic City.
After New Jersey gaming regulators warned Trump that Sullivan could jeopardize his casino license, Trump cut formal ties—though the two reportedly stayed in contact. Trump later offered Sullivan a position as chief labor negotiator in his organization, according to Sullivan himself.
Michael Cohen and Felix Sater
Cohen's uncle Morton Levine ran the Brooklyn social club El Caribe, frequented in the 1970s and 1980s by Italian-American and Russian-American organized crime figures. Russian mob leaders Evsei Agron and Marat Balagula reportedly used the club as their personal office.
Cohen also has close ties to Felix Sater, a Russian-born investor linked to both the New York and Russian mafia, whom he has known since childhood. Sater's father was allegedly a "captain in the Mogilevich organized crime syndicate."
Despite these connections, Sater was reportedly also an FBI informant and cooperated with the CIA. He lost his stockbroker license in the 1990s for participating in a mafia scheme to manipulate penny stocks and was later convicted of racketeering. He also served time for assault after smashing a martini glass into a man's face during a bar fight.
Cohen worked with Sater on a proposed Trump Tower Moscow deal during Trump's 2015 campaign. Although Trump denied knowing Sater, evidence shows Sater worked for the Trump Organization for years. In emails, Sater boasted of ties to Vladimir Putin and promised to secure both the real estate deal and Trump's presidency. Neither materialized.
Robert LiButti
Trump denied knowing high-stakes gambler and horse trader Robert LiButti, allegedly linked to John Gotti. However, LiButti's daughter told Yahoo News in 2016 that Trump knew exactly who her father was and that they flew together in Trump's helicopter.
Video footage shows Trump and LiButti together at WrestleMania IV in 1988. Trump nearly bought a racehorse from LiButti for $500,000 and once personally handed him a $350,000 check while gambling at Trump's casino.
Why Venezuela?
Trump protects those who created him—the Italian Gambino and Genovese clans. They are bound by business, history, and shared ties to Epstein. Fires must be lit to distract the public from digging into the pedo-mafia, which allegedly includes Musk, Putin, and many others.
Venezuela was a refuge for Trump's Italian friends. When drug business interests were threatened, Trump intervened.
Venezuela versus Ukraine
Even if VENEZUELA is equated with Ukraine, there is a crucial difference. The Ukrainian conflict serves as a cover for Euro-mafia business interests, while VENEZUELA openly admitted that the Italian mafia is literally destroying the country.
In the last two semiannual reports, Venezuela is mentioned, including in connection with the Gambino clan from New York.
DIA ANTIMAFIA – 2024 Report:
"Cosa Nostra has a widespread presence throughout the entire island of Sicily and, in recent decades, has expanded its operations abroad. Historical Sicilian emigration—particularly to European countries such as Belgium, Spain, and Germany, as well as to the American continent (the United States, Canada, and to a lesser extent Venezuela and Brazil)—has led to the creation of structured groups with characteristics similar to those of the original mafia.
These groups maintain close relationships of cooperation and mutual support, as evidenced by the links between members of the GAMBINO crime family in New York—the American Cosa Nostra—and Sicilian mafiosi. Of note is the increased interest in Spain, linked to Cosa Nostra's renewed focus on cocaine trafficking.
In response to numerous, uninterrupted law enforcement operations, Cosa Nostra has demonstrated a determined drive toward reorganization and a renewed commitment to expanding into new sectors, both in illegal activities and in the legal economy. This illustrates how the traditional characteristics of the mafia, while still deeply rooted, have evolved into more dynamic and flexible models."
I.
Among the principal criminal interests are drug trafficking, which has enabled the establishment of relationships and forms of cooperation with other mafia organizations (the 'Ndrangheta and the Camorra) and with foreign actors involved in drug procurement; extortion, a traditional tool of territorial control that is now increasingly characterized by coercive yet non-violent methods, limited to the imposition of overpriced supplies of goods, services, and labor; and online gambling and betting, which are used as tools for territorial control and for laundering illegally accumulated capital.
Mafia interests have also expanded into sectors of the legal economy: infiltration of local government decision-making processes, the direct or indirect acquisition of economic activities through compliant entrepreneurs and front men, and the infiltration of the agri-food sector through fraud aimed at unlawfully obtaining public funds allocated for agricultural and livestock development.
II.
The dual approach to combating mafia organizations—repressive/criminal and preventive/administrative—has enabled the judiciary and law enforcement agencies, through the arrest of high-ranking figures and the seizure of illicitly acquired assets, to significantly impact both the structural foundations of mafia groups and their economic power.
The Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC) is also active, managing drug flows to Africa and Europe. Colombia, through the Clan del Golfo and dissident groups of the FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia) and the ELN (National Liberation Army), controls the main cocaine routes passing through Ecuador, Venezuela, and the Dominican Republic.
In particular, the 'Ndrangheta, thanks to its strong relationships with local intermediaries, uses Colombia as an operational base for shipments to Europe.
Ecuador, located between Colombia and Peru, has become a key logistical hub for drug trafficking directed toward European and American markets, involving various international criminal groups, including the 'Ndrangheta.
– On March 26, 2024, an anti-drug operation conducted by the Catanzaro District Anti-Mafia Directorate (DDA) dismantled a criminal organization from Vibo Valentia that sourced drugs along major routes from Brazil, Spain, and Albania to Italian ports and distributed them in the province of Vibo Valentia and other cities in northern Italy. The investigation "Maestrale – Carthago 2," a continuation of "Maestrale – Carthago," detailed the involvement of leading members of 'Ndrangheta cells in the Mileto (VV) area and 'Ndrine from neighboring towns such as San Giovanni, Campami, and Paravati.
– On April 2, 2024, an order enforcing a preventive detention measure issued by the Public Prosecutor's Office in Genoa was carried out against members of a criminal group operating in Genoa, as well as in Panama, Colombia, and Venezuela, whose objective was to import large quantities of cocaine from Latin America, loaded onto ships bound for the port of Genoa.

Venezuela and anti-mafia cooperation
As early as 2009–2012, Venezuela cooperated with the Italian public prosecutor's office and Interpol. Venezuelan authorities, in close collaboration with Italian and Interpol investigators, apprehended the convicted Italian mafia boss Salvatore Bonomolo, which demonstrates the strong ties between Cosa Nostra and South America.
Italian authorities reported that Bonomolo, who had been convicted in absentia in Italy for extortion and organized crime, was betrayed by phone calls to his family and international money transfers, according to the Associated Press.
Bonomolo began his criminal career collecting "pizzo" (extortion payments) as part of rackets for the Sicilian mafia clan known as Palermo Centro, according to the International Business Times. Before his arrest, he is believed to have managed the group's drug trafficking connections in South America.
InSight Crime Analysis
Venezuela is known as a refuge for mafiosi from other countries. Numerous Colombian drug traffickers have been captured or killed there, most recently Diego Perez Henao, alias "Diego Rastrojo," the feared leader of the group that bears his name, who was captured there in June.
In 2009, Venezuelan authorities also arrested Salvatore Miceli, a member of the Sicilian Mafia who was on Interpol's most wanted list. Like Bonomolo, Miceli was suspected of brokering drug trafficking deals between South American and Italian crime groups.
Venezuela has much to offer organized crime. Transparency International ranks Venezuela 172nd out of 183 most corrupt countries in the world, and there is a substantial black market for fake passports, official security force IDs, and other necessary documents that help anyone with money disguise their true identity. For example, Bonomolo assumed the identity of Angelo Garofalo while operating in Venezuela.
Links between South America and Italian crime groups have traditionally been strong and are deepening with rising demand for cocaine in Europe. For example, Colombian mafia boss and former paramilitary leader Salvatore Mancuso used his Italian heritage to establish connections with Europe
Conclusion
It is so simple it should insult the intelligence of thinking people. Trump diverts attention from himself, Musk, Fico, Babiš, Putin, the Vatican, and above all his Italian handlers. He is the central puppet in the circus called EUROMAFIA.
And Putin? He walks hand in hand with Trump.
It is time to dig new trenches at Waterloo. Trump has reached a position from which there is no return—just like Napoleon before Waterloo.
Chris Hedges
Chris Hedges rightly argues that the U.S. attack on Venezuela and the abduction of Maduro and his wife "solidifies America's role as a gangster state."
"The abduction of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife cements America's role as a gangster state. Violence does not lead to peace. It creates violence. Violations of international and humanitarian law—by the U.S. and Israel in Gaza and now in Caracas—create a lawless world of failed states, warlords, rogue imperial powers, and endless chaos.
Regime change breeds Frankenstein monsters of our own making. Venezuela's military will not accept the kidnapping of its president or U.S. domination—just as Iraq's military and the Taliban did not. This will end badly for everyone, including the United States."
