Socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro is threatening war — and doing it while dancing.
At a wild rally in Caracas, the Venezuelan leader grabbed a sword, danced to an American song, and promised to “smash the teeth” of the United States after Trump seized an oil tanker near Venezuela.
“We must be ready to smash the teeth of the North American empire,” Maduro yelled to the crowd, holding up the sword of Simón Bolívar like he was ready for battle.
And the song playing in the background? “Don’t Worry, Be Happy.”
Yes — while threatening war with America.
Just hours earlier, President Donald Trump confirmed U.S. forces had seized a tanker smuggling oil from Venezuela — part of a tough new crackdown on Maduro’s regime and its ties to Iran.
“This was illegal oil, fueling corruption and terror,” Attorney General Pam Bondi said. “We took the tanker. Period.”
Trump didn’t mince words.
“I don’t rule out troops,” he said. “Maduro’s running a criminal empire, and we’re not going to let it slide.”
Maduro’s government exploded.
Venezuelan officials accused the U.S. of “international piracy” and called the oil seizure a “robbery.”
“The U.S. wants our oil,” the Venezuelan foreign ministry claimed. “This has nothing to do with democracy. It’s always been about our natural resources.”
They even brought up Citgo — a U.S.-based oil company once owned by Venezuela — and claimed it was “stolen” by American courts.
Video from the rally shows Maduro flailing around the stage with Bolívar’s sword, screaming about war while dancing to a U.S. pop song.
“The empire is coming for us!” he shouted. “But Venezuela will fight!”
He urged the crowd to be ready for “imperialist aggression,” saying the U.S. was trying to “plunder” the country’s wealth.
Senator Marco Rubio fired back immediately, praising Trump and warning Maduro to tread carefully.
“President Trump is not Biden,” Rubio posted. “He won’t be suckered by a clown with a sword.”
Rubio also hinted at more seizures to come, saying: “This is just the beginning.”
U.S. officials say Venezuela has been helping drug traffickers move narcotics across the Caribbean and into the U.S. Trump’s team has launched dozens of strikes to take out smuggling boats since September.
Over 80 people have reportedly died in cartel-linked violence during that time. The pressure is building — fast.
And now, with Maduro threatening to fight back, the region could be on the brink.
Maduro says he’ll go to international courts. Trump says he might send troops. The oil war is heating up.
“We’re not afraid of the empire,” Maduro ranted.
“Good,” Trump replied. “Let’s see what happens next.”

If he does, make him disappear, coordinated attack and vaporize him.

Hey, Dictator! You threatening the USA is a lot like a three year old threatening John (Wick or Rambo – you’re equally screwed)…
What a Maroon, if they have any military, other than their drug floatilla. Then it will be laughable, I think a company of highly trained USMC warriors will make a quick end to any threat they propose.
Like any progressive party member, he can rant and rage all he wants, and can possibly cause some terrorist damage, but he’s clearly not going to smash America.
