Justice Department prosecutors under Pam Bondi were forced to admit that the central claim Trump used to lay the groundwork for ousting Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro was a fiction.
For months, the President has promoted the claim that Maduro was the leader of a drug cartel called Cartel de los Soles. Now, DOJ prosecutors say the organization doesn't exist.
Prosecutors still accused Maduro in a New York courtroom on Monday of participating in a drug trafficking conspiracy but they distanced themselves from the claim that Cartel de los Soles was an actual cartel.
According to the New York Times, the revised indictment claims Maduro ran a 'patronage system' and a 'culture of corruption' fueled by profits from narcotics.
