DAVID MARCUS: Trump restores America as the world's sole superpower
Fox News’ Lucas Tomlinson reports on Operation Absolute Resolve, which led to the capture of Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro.
For the first 15 years of my life, until roughly 1990, the world had two legitimate superpowers: the United States of America and the Soviet Union. We know this not because anyone told us so, but because both nations could empower and protect their client states across the globe.
With the collapse of the Soviet empire, the United States became, arguably for the first time in human history, the planet’s only major superpower. But over the past two decades, experts have insisted this is changing, and that we are moving to trilateral power sharing with Russia and China.

On Saturday, with the successful operation to depose and arrest Venezuela’s illegitimate and Kremlin-backed leader Nicolas Maduro, President Donald Trump sent the world a crystal clear message: "Not so fast."
About a month ago, I ran a column in these pages with the title "Trump's aggression toward Venezuela a warning to Putin," and within an hour, Trump posted it on Truth Social. A presidential share is always great for clicks, but in this case it also proved the theory.
