Indeed... And, the SCOTUS ruling "...that a sitting president has presumptive immunity for official acts..."😏
People are going to adjudicate the details of this shooting for days without ever having the courage to say this was a Completely Foreseeable Tragedy that was set in motion in election day 2024.

Trump wanted Venezuela, now he wants Greenland...
United States, Greenland, Mexico, Northern South America (Columbia, the Guyanas, Venezuela) - to become the 'Technate of America'...? WTF is that...? Well, @halsparks.com covered it in a live stream way back in February 2025: youtu.be/eTxSLzW_1ds?...

@halsparks.com has talked about this on his live stream recently and around ten months ago as well… TECHNOCRACY

WTF is that…? You might ask… Well, Elon Musk’s maternal grandfather, Joshua Norman Haldeman, was involved with its conception… This is from two years ago:

yep... first we the people need to vote November 2026 in such a way that the democrats become the majority in BOTH houses of congress; until then, we the people need to keep the drum beat of protest going... big and strong is the order of the day: WE CAN DO THIS...!

yep... so sad that half of the voting (& non-voting) american public huffed his gaseous bullshit lies in 2016 and again in 2024...😏
Trump is gaslighting us. This isn’t about drug trafficking. War on “Drug trafficking” is the excuse, not the reason. This is about stealing Venezuela‘s oil.

Like you’re doing to our American institutions, buildings and country and we have a Congress that has decided not to do anything about it.
Trump: "They took all of our property. It was our property. We built it. And we never had a president that decided to do anything about it. Instead, they fought wars that were 10,000 miles away."

On top of that, sure, there will be a trial of maduro, he will be convicted, then… PINO Trump WILL PARDON HIM…!😂😂😂😂 just like he pardoned the former Honduran president 😂😂😂😂
How do we expect to have moral leverage over Russia at this point, in the hopes they stop attacking a sovereign nation?

Why should China give a shit about peace now when looking at Taiwan?

I am by no means a 'geopolitical expert', or anyone of importance or interest but, considering the reports of the United States of America, on the orders of PINO Trump, illegally attacking Venezuela to capture its president, it seems to me PINO Trump just ok'd China to attack Taiwan bit.ly/4jrCmKj
