Trump now floating the possibility that oil companies will be reimbursed by the US government for building the infrastructure that will allow them to pillage Venezuelan oil. You can’t even make this up.
Trump says the U.S. may reimburse oil companies for rebuilding Venezuela's infrastructure
Big oil firms will either "get reimbursed by us or through revenue," Trump told NBC News in an exclusive interview.

Leave it to the far right mega-influencers. Saying the loud part out loud: "Turning other countries... into subordinate vassals of the United States... [is] the very definition of an America First foreign policy."

Remember back when people still believed that The Generals would be willing to defy manifestly illegal orders, offering some last guardrails of order and sanity? Those were the days.

From the regime’s chief legal enabler. The framing speaks volumes: that Maduro will supposedly “face the full wrath of American justice”. Wrath. This is how you speak when law is reduced to vigilantism, personalized, seen as the instrument of one man’s desires, feuds, and grievances.

Maybe worth reading this one again. Seems relevant.
"Amid this chaos there has been one consistent target for Trump’s contempt: the constraints imposed by international law... In its place Trump pursues “sheer coercive power” – or what has been described as mobster diplomacy, in which shakedowns, blackmail and deal-making are the agents of change."
Into the void: how Trump killed international law
The rules-based global order, its institutions and value system face a crisis of legitimacy and credibility as the US turns away

What Elon is boosting now, pt 2: "White guilt is the engine of demographic replacement." From an account that is well-known for neo-Nazi/white supremacist content.

Give him another week and he'll be posting the Sonnenrad on main.

What Elon is boosting now: College campuses are apparently the "flagbearers of the War on White People." Really great that the world's richest man, with the world's largest megaphone is targeting higher ed with chapter/verse white supremacist grievances.

Remember, y’all. When homophobes refuse to make cakes for same-sex couples it’s a matter of deep integrity and courage in faith. But when artists refuse to contribute their talents over political disputes it’s selfish and intolerant and demands punishment. Glad to clear that up.
This is the logical and inevitable conclusion of the last decade of elite media "free speech" discourse.

What Elon is boosting on The Other Site. No clearer rendering of the narrative that drives far right grievance politics— elites snatching from The White American Male all the goods they so richly deserve, and handing them instead to The Undeserving, Dark-skinned Outsider. Racist rage machine.
