GS: “Sen. Warner said you can’t argue drug trafficking charges demand invasion in one case while issuing a pardon in another…”🤔

@marcorubio: “Maduro was indicted.”

GS: “Hernandez was CONVICTED.”

RUBIO: “I wasn't involved in the pardon… I've got other things going on.” 🤷🏽‍♂️

As someone who was in the Army during the Vietnam War, the song "Fortunate Song" is about draft dodging guys who had rich daddies to keep them out of Vietnam. For example: Donald Trump who said that sleeping with hookers was "his Vietnam." Trump is just a coward.

WELKER: If the purpose of the operation was to capture Maduro and bring him to justice, why does the US need to take over the Venezuela oil industry?

RUBIO: Well, we don't *need* to. We have plenty of oil in the US. We want to see the oil proceeds of the country benefit the people of Venezuela.

While Americans are struggling to feed themselves and pay their bills, Trump decides to undertake what has to be one of the most expensive arrests in history.

Arresting Maduro is no different that building a ballroom.

A very expensive ego boost for a demented old man that helps nobody else.

Trump threatening to attack more countries should be giving everyone a 1930s Germany vibe.

Hitler's strategy to get Germany's economy out of the Great Depression, was to build up the Military Industry and seize natural resources from other countries.

Sound familiar?

I remember being in Iraq and having a soldier say to me,

"We freed them from Saddam, why are they shooting at us?"

My answer was simple:

"If a foreign army was on the streets of America, no matter how well-intentioned, when would you stop shooting at them?"

No different in Venezuela.

At the Press Conference yesterday, Trump said, "We're going to make sure that country is run properly."

Really?

Millions of American just lost their health care, millions more are struggling to feed themselves and we're just a couple of weeks from another government shutdown.

Define, "properly."

This is how it's done. If incumbent Democrats won't do the job, their primary challengers can and will use this to make sure someone else does
The Republican Congress has chosen to give away its authority and power and now we are being told Trump plans to occupy Venezuela. We don't cry for Maduro. We demand the following of our laws and Constitution. He is already threatening Mexico and Cuba will be next. Ann Wagner is silent.

Corporate Democrats starting their condemnation with "Maduro is an evil dictator who should be brought to justice to answer for his acts, BUT..." then you've already lost the plot.

Now you're arguing against why you're defending Maduro, not why Constitutional & International Law can't be selective.

Now is the time for the proponents of democracy to unite and organize across national boundaries. This fight is global and these people have no national allegiance. They will enslave us all and convince us it for our own good.
I fear for my beloved Canada now. He mentioned us again in his ridiculous speech claiming we are pouring drugs into the USA (same excuse he used for Venezuela invasion)and we have the 3rd largest oil reserves in the world.

The one thing that the pundits always seem to overlook is Trump's narcissism.

He doesn't care HOW he is remembered. All he cares about is that he IS remembered.

He doesn't admire Hitler for the things he did.

He admires Hitler because 80 years after his death, everyone still knows his name.

Zelensky on Venezuela:

“About Venezuela? How should I respond to that? Well, what can I say? If… If it is possible to act with dictators like this, it means the United States knows what to do next. Thank you”
