A regime change war in Latin America based on absurd rationales about drug trafficking, no explanation of goals, and counter to everything Trump promised campaigning. And we’re not even a full year into Trump’s term.

To believe this is about drug smuggling, you have to ignore Trump’s pardon of the former Honduran president for drug smuggling. To believe it’s about Maduro’s democratic legitimacy, you have to believe Trump cares even slightly about democratic legitimacy. Alternatively:

Der heutige Schlag der Trump-Regierung gegen das Regime von Nicolás Maduro (und die Entführung des Präsidenten) sollte auch dem Letzten in Europa, in der Ukraine, in Taiwan und anderswo vor Augen führen, dass die „internationale Ordnung“ am Ende ist. ➡️Staatsoberhäupter, die vom

For the record, Americans are overwhelmingly AGAINST any military action with Venezuela. trump is a disgrace for bombing them. NO BLOOD FOR OIL.

Published Nov 2025: "... It's a long shot, but a brief military campaign — echoing the US invasion of Panama in 1989 that triggers the collapse of the regime in Caracas — could go from bullish to bearish for the oil market rather quickly..." @Opinion bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

“Trump's Venezuela Attack: It’s All About the Oil, Stupid!” Here are five times Donald Trump himself admitted that illegally attacking Venezuela and toppling Nicolás Maduro was aimed at seizing the country’s massive oil reserves. My latest for Zeteo: zeteo.com/p/venezuela-at…

7 minute explanation by Sky News on why Trump wants Venezuelan oil so badly…..apparently we’re drilling a lot of it here but not the kind that our refineries are built for and since we currently have a tariff war with Canada….Venezuela is next best thing

How does an entire administration not understand this basic reality? Venezuelan oil is not a quick payday or profitable. Heavy crude takes years to extract profitably. It requires massive upfront investment, specialized infrastructure, refineries configured for heavy oil, long

Ignore the oil tankers seizures -- that's a distraction. The below is truly the news of the day on Venezuelan oil. Read what US Energy Secretary Chris Wright just said at the Goldman Sachs energy conference (my quick transcript of the key question, with my own highlights).

Have you not learned yet that you: Don't question Trump Don't question ICE Don't film Don't protest Don't resist Or you will be next

Storm the Capitol you get a pardon. Drive away from ICE you get murdered.

Ana Navarro on Donald Trump: “Somebody who is attacking his own citizens in the streets of his own country will never ever ever get close to the Nobel Peace Prize. He’s going to go to his deathbed with the Obama envy he feels”

Wearing a Nazi cosplay coat while complaining that people are calling you a Nazi, is certainly a choice.

They tried to cover it up immediately and the Minneapolis police chief refused. Witnesses have been taken to police headquarters and all available off duty police have been called to work. ICE cannot be trusted to tell the truth. Congress must act now. The Courts must stop the

Don't let this video disappear. This is moments before 🧊 executed the man. He's holding a cellphone recording and observing. Not a gun.

George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 Alex Jeffrey Pretti was brandishing a phone. They maced him twice & took his phone. His gun was likely holstered & his hands were empty. The federal agent removed the gun & then Alex was shot 10 times. Trump is lying. Alex had a permit for his gun.

Dispatch from America, 2026: Renée Good, 37, American poet and mother, was killed by an ICE agent on January 7, 2026. Alex Jeffrey Pretti, 37, American ICU nurse, was killed by ICE on January 24, 2026. Two Americans. Two weeks apart. This is a matter of record.
