I'm losing track of how many countries a man livid he wasn't given the Nobel Peace Prize has illegally bombed.
Iran. Venezuela. Nigeria. Afghanistan. Iraq. Libya. Pakistan. Somalia. Syria. Yemen.
Not to mention threatening to annex Greenland and Canada and invade Panama.

So, this illegal act of war against Venezuela is about:
1. Greed - for Venezuela's resources, oil in particular,
2. Bringing Nicolás Maduro ... a drug lord, to the U.S.
All without permission from Congress, and in violation of the Hague Convention.
Another Epstein files distraction, too?

If Nicolás Maduro stands trial in the United States and gets convicted of 34 felonies, does that mean he’s qualified to be our next president now?
Just checking what the standards are these days.

Trump is pulling a PUTIN in Venezuela. I hope he goes down for this. It can't be legal. I doubt congress approved of this.

Good morning, Creatives! I am without pithy comments today. I think I might be coming down with something. My granddaughter and my son are both hacking and sniffing, so it was only a matter of time ... Blah!

Good morning, creatives! I'm at the cabin this weekend with my boys. It's so still outside, with all the snow that has fallen. The moon is nearly full, and it's sparkling! Sigh. I'll try to get a picture tonight. Here's one overlooking the lake.
