YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Donald Trump suggested he has made up his mind on a course of action in Venezuela following multiple high-level briefings this week and a mounting US show of force in the region.

Officials briefed Trump this week on options for military operations inside Venezuela, four sources told CNN, as he weighs the risks and benefits of launching a scaled-up campaign to potentially oust President Nicolas Maduro. The US military, meanwhile, has amassed more than a dozen warships and 15,000 troops into the region as part of what the Pentagon branded “Operation Southern Spear.”

CNN contributor Stefano Pozzebon reports from Caracas, and CNN's Kate Bolduan discusses with the "Table for Five" panel: former Trump administration DHS chief of staff Miles Taylor, Miami GOP committeewoman Angie Wong, podcast host Toure and Republican strategist Lance Trover. #cnn #News
