Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Sunday that the United States would not take a day-to-day role in governing Venezuela other than enforcing an existing “oil quarantine” on the country, a turnaround after President Donald Trump announced a day earlier that the U.S. would be running Venezuela.

The Trump administration has said it is freezing child care funds to all states until they provide more verification and administrative data about the programs in a move fueled by a series of fraud schemes at Minnesota day care centers run by Somali residents.

Speaking from Mar-a-Lago’s “Tea Room” Saturday, President Donald Trump announced a plan staggering in its ambition. The United States, Trump said, would “take over” and “run” Venezuela in order to replace now-captured president Nicolás Maduro’s regime with one chosen by the United States.

Imperial Leader Donald Trump has announced the U.S. will rule Venezuela after capturing President Nicolás Maduro, on “narco-terrorism” charges.

This comes after Trump pardoned notorious drug trafficker Juan Hernández following a letter praising Trump.

The silence from many media-hyped 2028 contenders today is shocking.

If you cannot oppose this regime change war for oil, you don't have the moral clarity or guts to lead our party or nation.

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Fed Chair Jerome Powell just made clear that Donald Trump has cost the US economy 20,000 jobs a month from April to September. This is insane.

Kyiv and Paris just signed a deal for up to 100 Dassault Rafale jets — plus air-defence systems, munitions, drones — to help Ukraine fend off Russian attacks. This could become one of the strongest air-defence setups in the world, said Volodymyr Zelenskiy. Huge win for Ukraine’s defence.

BREAKING: Trump falls asleep standing up at his own press conference while Gen. Caine discusses the illegal military operation in Venezuela!

Remove this man from office IMMEDIATELY before more innocent people die.

Nothing says “death throes of a dying empire” more than a demented authoritarian strongman falling asleep at his own press conference about the kidnapping of the leader of another sovereign nation.

After illegally invading Venezuela and kidnapping their head of state-regardless of how evil he might be

Trump now plans to illegally steal their oil

Meanwhile he’s threatening Mexico, Iran, Colombia and Cuba-after attacking Nigeria on Christmas

America has now joined the axis of evil
Trump on the US running Venezuela: It will not cost us anything because the money coming out of the ground is substantial. We’re going to take back the oil.

Hours after the U.S. invaded Venezuela to seize President Nicolás Maduro, President Trump sent a warning to the governments of Mexico, Cuba and Colombia that their countries could be next.

Trump reportedly can't decide whether to invade New York, Canada or Mexico next.
Next stop on the War Tour:

Trump to Fox: “Claudia Sheinbaum is a good woman, but the cartels are running Mexico.

“She’s not running Mexico — the cartels are running Mexico.

“Something’s going to have to be done with Mexico.”

Even as Trump's takeover of Venezuela is beginning, he is already picking out his next targets. He told Fox & Friends that he would be soon targeting Columbia, Mexico, and Cuba.

That's on top of his threat yesterday to invade Iran, and his outstanding threats against Canada, Greenland, and others.

Invading Venezuela, taking its oil and deposits Chavez/Maduro has been a Republican dream since 2002. This isn't a goddamn distraction. It's l a two-decade-long project.
Schumer says "It makes you think that maybe to Trump, he wants to distract the American people, as he always does, as he always does, from the skyrocketing cost...from the Epstein files."

"This is unprecedented..."

So were his felonies, his sexual assaults, all of his crimes.

Tell us, please @schumer.senate.gov , when your "Republican colleagues" have EVER "put a brake on this." Ever.
Asked about the possibility of impeachment, Schumer says "we hope that we can have support from our Republican colleagues to put a brake on this long before it gets that far"

American voters will lose more than just elections if they don't vote to get every Republican out of congress as they can in 2026. They will erode any chance we have at fair and free elections in 2028. And that is because too many of you apathetic assholes don't vote like your lives depend on it!
