President Donald Trump's actions in Iran, Venezuela, and the United States and Israel are seen as "uncharted territory" in foreign policy, marking a new era for the president. During his first year in office, Trump unleashed U.S. military power on seven other nations, including Iran, and in a joint attack on Iran, which killed six US service members and over 700 Iranians, including Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The operations, which also included the capture of Venezuela's leader, Nicolás Maduro, and removing their heads of state, are significant as they attempt to eliminate what Trump claims is a threat to the US and remove their governments. This move has been criticized by some as an about-face move from his supporters to use military force against foreign leaders. However, this move has infuriated many of his supporters, including former Rep. Marorie Taylor Green, a former supporter of the Iraq regime, and former FOX News host Tucker Carlson, who denounced the Iran operation as 'absolutely disgusting' and described it as an act of evil and 'disgusting'.
