Even if Trump’s attack on Venezuela and kidnapping of Maduro somehow led to a positive impact on Venezuela’s future, it would not make these actions by the United States legal, moral or wise.

Normalising and legitimising this behaviour endangers all countries - democracies and dictatorships alike.

Bill Ackman asked people on X about voter ID. I decided to take his question seriously and answer it.

Rubio is claiming that they did not need Congress permission because it was a law enforcement mission. The US is behaving as a global police state, extending its own arbitrary legal decisions to the whole world.

This is not a problem just for Venezuela.

I'm not sure this ends with anything less than a multinational force removing Trump from power given the fecklessness of the Democrats in opposing Trump.

Even if they win the midterms they'll do nothing and I'm not sure the world will wait.

See @wassermanschultz.house.gov disgraceful statement.

A functioning Congress will have articles of impeachment drafted by the end of the day.

Our Congress will just go to social media to basically say “We don’t like this, but what are you gonna do?”

At least now we know Maduro didn’t buy Trump’s crypto coin or donate to his campaign 🤷🏼

News: Gang of Eight in Congress were only notified about Trump's Venezuela operation after it began, source familiar tells me. That means the heads of the Intelligence Committees in Senate and House were *not* consulted. Just crazy.

Sen. Tim Kaine, Senate Foreign Relations:

"Where will this go next? Will the President deploy our troops to protect Iranian protesters? … To suppress Americans peacefully assembling to protest his policies? Trump has threatened to do all this and more and sees no need to seek legal authorization."

When America abdicates its role as a defender of freedom and becomes the oppressor, it emboldens dictators everywhere.

We are about to learn some hard lessons.

Reading the Maduro “indictment” I’m suddenly reminded of WHY Gitmo existed and Obama didn’t shut it down.
It’s because you can’t KIDNAP people, based on “evidence” you violated rights to obtain, and bring them to trial in U.S. courts.

So this piece of crap squatting in the White House has decided to engage us in war to gain oil. This is not about drugs. This is about control. This is about him not being held accountable for his crimes. How much does it take until we act against him?

Congress needs to revise the assorted Presidential authorities over foreign military action. They won't, because the current Congress are gutless cowards.
