…It was not clear Thursday who would replace Admiral Holsey, who just this week visited the islands of #Antigua & #Barbuda as well as #Grenada.
News of the admiral’s departure comes a day after it was reported that the #Trump admin had secretly authorized the #CIA to conduct covert action in #Venezuela.
Trump acknowledged Wednesday that he had authorized the covert action & said the US was considering strikes on Venezuelan territory.
