🇺🇸❌🇻🇪🇻🇪 — NEW: The Trump administration is considering a range of increasingly aggressive options against Venezuela, including precision airstrikes on military sites tied to drug trafficking, special-operations raids to capture or kill Nicolás Maduro, and plans to seize airfields and oil infrastructure, while still debating legal justification and political risk, according to NYT.

➡️ Senior aides (including Marco Rubio and Stephen Miller) push for decisive action and for treating Maduro as a narcoterrorist to expand legal authorities; the Justice Department is drafting guidance.

➡️ Trump has not decided and is reluctant to risk U.S. troops or a failed operation.

➡️ Planners prefer long‑range strikes and deniable options until the carrier Gerald R. Ford and other forces arrive; critics warn of huge legal, operational, and post‑war governance risks and uncertain outcomes if Maduro is removed.
