This needs to be explicitly framed as "voters' healthcare dollars" being redirected to bribe oil companies. I'm reading that the industry is understandably reluctant, so this reads clearly as a bribe.

“The appetite for jumping into Venezuela right now is pretty low. We have no idea what the government there will look like,” one well-placed industry source told CNN on Monday. “The president’s desire is different than the industry’s. And the White House would have known that if they had communicated with the industry prior to the operation on Saturday.”

Notice how they hold these votes around Midnight so they can sneak these atrocities through. How much were those 7 Democrats paid with our tax funds for their vote for a Nazi Regime Military Assistant loyal to Trump and not loyal to the U.S. Constitution. Disgusting and Criminal Treason!

Children will die with RFK Jr.'s new vaccine recommendations. We're NOT doing the "experts disagree" game. The US vaccine schedule was painstakingly constructed through a deep & thorough process by experts with unquestionable expertise. This is policy by fiat. It is pre-meditated murder. 1/

Oh look, billionaire backer of Trump (and before that, Rubio) bought Citgo last November. Citgo is the US subsidiary of Venezuela’s state-run oil company.

It was a forced sale—one which Maduro had been challenging in court.

The Washington Post reports that Donald Trump withheld support for María Corina Machado because she accepted the Nobel Peace Prize.

Trump’s explanation, per the report:
“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today.”

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), run by Oz and his boss, RFK Jr., will no longer require physicians to report vaccination rates.

Instead, they plan to start having doctors report if they’ve discussed “alternative” vaccine schedules.

Another post from a Venezuelan friend:
They speak of justice while ruling through fear. They speak of sovereignty while stealing the vote. They speak of dignity while condemning their own people. I learned that those who insist the most on calling themselves "the good ones" are often the ones most afraid to face themselves. The Maduro regime wraps itself in flags, in anti-imperialist rhetoric, in a false epic where any criticism is labeled as betrayal. They claim to defend Venezuela, yet they stole the people's voice when they refused to respect the elections. That act alone strips away any moral authority. But do not be mistaken. The fact that a tyrant is real does not automatically turn an external aggressor into a savior. The United States does not act out of love for democracy. It acts out of interest. It always has. The language changes, the enemy changes, but the method remains the same: pressure, punishment, displays of power. And as always, the blow is not absorbed by those in power, but by ordinary people. The Venezuelan people are trapped between two narratives that do not represent them. One that oppresses them from within, and another that exploits them from outside. One that claims legitimacy without real elections. Another that claims justice without taking responsibility for the human consequences of its actions. I do not defend Maduro. I point at him. But I also refuse to accept that a global power can appoint itself as a moral judge while its history is written in interventions, sanctions, and broken countries. Pain does not need propaganda. Hunger does not understand geopolitics. Dignity is not imposed with missiles, nor with dictatorships. While some sell themselves as the good ones to justify repression, and others sell themselves as the good ones to justify aggression, the result is always the same: more suffering, more rage, more generations learning that force replaces justice. And once again, pain is inherited.

The real reason the US is invading Venezuela goes back to a deal Henry Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia in 1974.

And I'm going to explain why this is actually about the SURVIVAL of the US dollar itself.
