Despite DOJ edits, it could expose more Americans to the CIA’s own history of drug trafficking. The January 3 US military raid on Venezuela to kidnap President Nicolas Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores was followed by the Department of Justice’s release of its superseding indictment of the two abductees as well as their […] The post Behind the DOJ’s politicized indictment of Maduro: a CIA-created ‘network’ and coerced star witness first appeared on The Grayzone.
