WORLD NEWS: U.S. READY TO HIT; VENEZUELA SAYS IT'S READY, TOO

London's Sun newspaper reports the U.S. military is ready to seize ports and airfields in Venezuela as it wages war on drug cartels.

Venezuela's president, Nicolas Maduro, warns he's mobilized 2.5 million troops to defend the country.

President Trump says smuggling "constitutes an armed attack against the United States" - arguing imported dope kills tens of thousands of Americans every year.

Violent Venezuelan gangs have also infiltrated U.S. cities, like Denver and Aurora.
