Trump plays down possible regime change in Venezuela; US deploys [F-35] stealth fighter jets

Just in time for the hurricanes
[Jerusalem Post] The United States is not talking about regime change in Venezuela, President Donald Trump said on Friday, as the United States ordered an additional 10 stealth fighter jets to a military buildup in the Caribbean.
Not demanding, but won’t say nay if it happens to happen, donchaknow.
"We're not talking about that, but we are talking about the fact that you had an election which was a very strange election, to put it mildly," Trump said, referring to the contested 2024 election the Venezuelan government says President Nicolas Maduro won.

Trump had been asked by reporters about a claim Maduro had made this week that the United States was seeking "regime change through military threat."
