So now Rubio, an abject failure at the four jobs he already has in this administration, is being given a fifth role, colonial overlord, Viceroy of American Venezuela.
President Trump asked Secretary of State Marco Rubio to lead the process to implement economic and political reforms in Venezuela, White House senior adviser Stephen Miller said
Trump Asks Rubio to Lead Venezuela Overhaul After Maduro Arrest
President Donald Trump asked Secretary of State Marco Rubio to lead the process to implement economic and political reforms in Venezuela and the US believes it is getting “full, complete and total” cooperation from the government in Caracas after the capture of Nicolas Maduro, White House senior adviser Stephen Miller said Monday.

We are now a rabid animal of a superpower. The threat to the world is so great that we need to stop hand-wringing about how we got here and focus 100% in this election year about how to stop them.
Stephen Miller, who wants the U.S. to steal Greenland and shake down Latin America, says: ”We live in a world … that is governed by force, that is governed by power. These are the iron laws of the world since the beginning of time.”
That‘s a criminal pretending that a civilized world is impossible.

Read it and shiver in contemplation of the monstrous consequences of this immoral and profoundly dangerous world view, the one that now guides the most powerful nation on the planet.
Here is the Trump Doctrine, as articulated by Stephen Miller in his truly frightening interview with Jake Tapper this afternoon. It is very much like the doctrine of the dictators we fought and defeated in World War II and of Putin today. It is un-American at its very core.

As usual, Ed is absolutely right. Trump is not bluffing about Greenland, insane as that may be. It is time for someone to explain to him it will come at an unacceptably high cost. Over to you, EU/NATO...
