Americans, are waiting for the "other guy" to fix it.
However. There is no "other guy".
Nobody is coming to your rescue. You're going to have to do it yourself people.
Apologies to the world, won't be good enough.

When time will come, the EU will "closely monitor" the invasion of Taiwan. And then the seizure of Greenland. And then...
I have spoken with Secretary of State Marco Rubio and our Ambassador in Caracas. The EU is closely monitoring the situation in Venezuela.
The EU has repeatedly stated that Mr Maduro lacks legitimacy and has defended a peaceful transition. (1/2)

Good morning.
You are waking up to the irony of a convicted felon president, who spent years avoiding his own criminal trials, capturing the president of a sovereign nation and holding him captive for criminal trials.

Ironically, at the moment, the United States is trying to select *Canada's* leadership by promoting JD Vance's best buddy Jamil Jivani to be the next leader of Canada's federal Conservative Party of Canada.
If that doesn't work, I guess they'll just bomb us.

Good morning from Canada, a country whose border Trump has called an “imaginary” “artificial line” established by an illegitimate treaty. I’d like to be spared your nuanced “Were Trump voter’s racist with fascist inclinations or just low information voters with fascist inclinations?” debate today.

Trump's regime has murdered people in the water. He has seized ships on the high seas. He has invaded a country and kidnapped their leader.
All bets are off with the United States.
Canada needs to build alliances with Europe and to be ready on the home front.

Trump confirms the US has captured Maduro and his wife.
This was done without congressional approval.
It’s an act of war.
You do not need to like or approve of the Venezuelan regime to disapprove of Trump’s actions.

So this piece of crap squatting in the White House has decided to engage us in war to gain oil. This is not about drugs. This is about control. This is about him not being held accountable for his crimes. How much does it take until we act against him?

U.S. Southern Command chief General Laura Richardson just said the truth out loud:
The U.S. focus in Latin America isn’t “democracy” — it’s controlling oil, lithium, gold, and rare earth minerals. Venezuela, with the largest oil reserves and key strategic resources, is the main target. #cdnpoli
