In his press conference yesterday following military strikes on Venezuela, President Trump didn't mention "democracy" or "elections" once. He did mention another word 20 times: "oil." @mehdirhasan.bsky.social joins me at 10a ET on what that signals about Trump's intentions. #Velshi

Let me be very clear: tomorrow morning and EVERY DAY THIS WEEK, call your Reps and Senators whether Dem, Republican or Independent. Express your outrage at Trump’s imperial and illegal actions against sovereign nations. TELL THEM to convene. To hold up everything. Hold up $.

Trump called Putin prior to invading Venezuela, but he did not let the United States Congress know! Putin and Trump are behind this invasion obviously.

This insanity has to stop.
EXCLUSIVE: In an interview with Michael Scherer, Donald Trump threatened Venezuela’s interim leader, Delcy Rodríguez, with a fate worse than Maduro’s; defended regime change in the country; and expressed renewed interest in the U.S. seizing Greenland.
Trump: Delcy Rodríguez Might Be Next
The president told The Atlantic that the interim Venezuelan president will meet a fate worse than Maduro’s unless she complies with U.S. wishes.

Despite a statutory deadline requiring all of the files to be released by Dec. 19, 5.2 million documents remain to be reviewed and disclosed. It’s likely that the final public release will not occur until the end of February — one full year after Pam Bondi ordered the release of the records.
For Trump, the Epstein Cover-Up Beats the Truth

What Trump has done to Venezuela is no different than what Putin did to the Ukraine. Trump, a decrepit, moral degenerate is now the most dangerous man in the world. And nearly 40% of the country supports his every move. We are still in year one of his presidency. Can he get any more evil?

To be blunt, the federal Constitution needs to be amended to remove being Commander in Chief of the military from the president. It's too much power for any one person, and it's the only guaranteed way to ensure that Congress as a body maintains control of our military.

every politician, anywhere, whose response to the US breaking international law is like “the legal analysis is complicated” or “I am not qualified to comment” instead of condemning it, is collaborating with fascism and is your political opponent, invested only in upholding the existing hegemony

That’s right, Congress. Keep letting him do anything he wants, unchecked. Keep showing the country (and the world) what total feckless pussies you are. Well done.

"After Trump’s Venezuela Invasion, Mexico Could Be Next"
Administration officials tell Zeteo that Trump remains ‘very interested’ in the idea of sending US Special Forces into Mexico, as the president threatens Colombia and Cuba, too.

During Fiona Hill's testimony to Congress on Oct 14, 2019, she described how Trump and Putin discussed exchanging Ukraine for Venezuela. The quid pro quo was if Trump refuses to help Ukraine fight off a Russian invasion, Putin would not help Venezuela (a Russian ally) resist a US takeover.

Trump is weak at home, and he can be stopped – so long as the domestic political logic of foreign intervention is recognized and turned against him. This act of war is about regime change in the United States. It only succeeds if Americans allow it to do so.
