What exactly has Trump asked of the troops that is illegal?
Agreed. Since these attacks on Venezuelan people have started, there has been a lack of evidence, one way or the other. I'd like to know myself.
For a while, there was no proof that the military strikes on those boats off of Venezuela were indeed drug runners, and that they have connection to the government of Venezuela. Both must be true to make those strikes legal.
The Trump administration’s extraordinary lethal attack on this purported smuggling vessel raises significant potential legal issues.

I did find an AP article a week or so ago that investigated who some of these folks are, and indeed, they do run drugs.
I have not found any evidence in the press, or from the administration that these drug runners have any connection to the Veneuzuelan government.
If there is no proof that the official authorities in Veneuzeula are indeed profiting off of the poisoning of the American public, an invasion of Venezuela would be an illegal war of aggression.
If you find this proof, other than just government say so, I would sure like to look at it.
I want to know the connections these drug runners have with their government, and what proof the administration has of these connections.
