NYT: “At least 40 people were killed in the U.S. attack on Venezuela, including military personnel and civilians… no American troops killed— About half a dozen soldiers injured…”
This is what they call a “law enforcement operation”? 😕

Based upon his lies,
He conducts a raid,
Murders innocent civilians,
Kidnaps a head of state,
Violates the U.N. charter,
And a country's sovereignty,
Say hello to fascism,
So long democracy.

I won’t fully drag Democrats, I’m on the team and the current GOP exists, but it’s clearly time for new blood in Congress. Yesterday should’ve been a candy store of net-positive messaging opportunities. So what happened? Was it Saturday? Holiday hangovers? Too old and tired?

Happening now: several hundred people are pouring into Chicago's downtown Federal Plaza.
It's 25 degrees outside.
Organizers are leading the crowd in a chant of, "no boots on the ground, no bombs in the air!"
Two protesters hold a large banner reading, "no war for Venezuela oil."

I’m so sick of hearing “ impeachment is pointless”.
Impeachment is the lawful, appropriate response that is DEMANDED BY THE CONSTITUTION in an act of war without congressional approval. Not impeaching because it will “never get enough votes” is in and of itself, violating the constitution.

The aging pedophile who wants to be a king has kidnapped the leader of a sovereign nation without congressional approval.
If the United States had an opposition party, they would treat this as an illegitimate act and start impeachment proceedings immediately.

This war and extra-judicial kidnapping is patently illegal and unconstitutional. Political leaders on both sides must condemn it. It’s not about whether Maduro is a tyrant but whether the US is still governed by laws and the Constitution. As if this morning, we are clearly not.
