Regime change in Afghanistan to remove the Taliban resulted in the return of the Taliban

Regime change in Iraq to remove Saddam Hussein resulted in the rise of Daesh (ISIS)

Regime change in Libya to remove Ghadaffi resulted in chaos and a decade plus of civil war

literally how many members of congress have done this much? Where's the list? Which newspaper has a list of names with a checkmark next to them?
Mayor Zohran Mamdani said he called President Donald Trump and directly voiced his opposition to the U.S. capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.

In each regime change, U.S. media showed images of locals celebrating as a means to justify the change. Yet each ended in tragedy.

Violent regime change does not work. It never has. Why not? Because it is driven by oil and profit—not people and principles.

Regime change in Iraq, Afghanistan, & Libya killed millions of innocent people—all for oil.

Trump admits his goal is to take over Venezuela to control their oil. 40 people have already died in Trump’s bombings, and if he isn’t stop that number will skyrocket.

This is why I fear for Venezuela.

REP. GOLDMAN: “Trump promised oil executives if they gave him $1 billion for his campaign, he’d do right by them. They gave about $500 million. This is a massive gift in violation of international law, essentially just co-opting an entire country's natural resources for the benefit of 🇺🇸 Companies.”

Venezuela’s Supreme Court has ordered that Vice President Delcy Rodriguez assume and exercise all powers and duties inherent to the position of President in order to guarantee the continuity of government and defence of the nation.

I’ve been working full time to stop this war since last summer and the one scenario I feared the most is materializing — Trump is making a play for Venezuela’s oil. I’m not saying an insurgency will definitely form, but Trump’s ploy creates the perfect storm for an absolutely disastrous occupation.🧵
Trump: "We're going to have our very large United States oil companies go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure and start making money for the country. And we are ready to stage a second and much larger attack if we need to do so."

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.

The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month.

It’s about oil and regime change.

And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

"The 'Trump corollary' to the Monroe Doctrine—applied in recent hours with violent force over the skies of Caracas—is the single greatest threat to peace and prosperity that the Americas confront today," said Progressive International.

Perhaps now people will stop wishcasting about the US military refusing illegal orders. That's not a thing that happens. The 100% compliance rate with using civilian boats for target practice was a bit of a tell.

ICYMI: Today, the United States of America, under the direction of a mentally unstable president, attacked Venezuela, a sovereign nation, kidnapped its leader and his wife, and declared they are now running the country.

It’s exactly as insane as it sounds.
