This is deeply concerning.
“We are the dominant predator force in the Western hemisphere.”
Ogles: "It's important that we have a stake in Greenland, that they are quite frankly a protectorate of the US. They've been in relationship with Denmark - that needs to end. We've spilled more blood protecting Greenland than the Danes... we are the dominant predator force in the Western Hemisphere"

The Trump administration is charging Maduro with personally enriching himself through his presidency? Did I read that right? They found people to say that in a courtroom with a straight face?

It’s official. He’s gone insane. Round the bend never to return.

Dust off Article 25, Section 4, and supercharge it.
The Trump administration is using a provocative image of a baseball bat-wielding Trump stomping over global allies to assert America’s dominance in the Western Hemisphere.
Trump Sends Bonkers Cartoon Threat to U.S. Neighbors
The animation is the latest chest-beating message the administration and its MAGA acolytes have posted since Maduro was captured.

Coincidence?

"The January 3 deadline for the Justice Department to explain its redactions for the produced documents came and went without a response, the same day the U.S. carried out its strike on Venezuela."

🎯 Read this: Thread. The Trump machine has reshaped American character.
The tragic fact is that the US is inured to mass death.

The steady drumbeat of gun deaths in the US adds up to a number greater than all the military deaths in all US Wars. School shootings are now routine. No actions result.

The death toll is now 80? I know the pandemic made life cheap amid mass death, but 80 dead is staggering

Insanity: Sources close to the White House told the Washington Post Trump lost interest in backing Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado to lead the country because she accepted her Nobel Peace Prize rather than demanding it be given to Trump, which was viewed as an “ultimate sin.”

The media are intoxicated with the drama of night-time operations, bombs exploding, daring military exploits, military hardware, & secret undertakings. They can’t catch their collective breath long enough to note the illegality, the corrupt motivations, the potential for disastrous consequences.

Insanity between 2 senile, vain, narcissists old men, each wanting to own the world.
"In 2019, Fiona Hill testified that the Russian government was “signaling very strongly that they wanted to somehow make some very strange swap agreement between Venezuela and Ukraine.” (Search: Venezuela) i.e. we get Venezuela, they get Ukraine."

🔥 Read up and down this thread
There are a lot of Venezuelans who hate Maduro and might have stayed quiet in response to regime change, but privatizing and stealing the patrimony of an entire nation can galvanize a very angry resistance. Trump can’t help but make himself the villain in this scenario.
Trump says Venezuela's oil wealth "goes also to the United States of America in the form of reimbursement for the damages caused us by that country"

Plant the flag. Immediately.
I don’t understand how the first reaction from leadership isn’t “This is an impeachable offense. My colleagues must defund Hegseth and begin drafting articles immediately.”

Like, even if it doesn’t get done, how are you not planting this flag in the ground immediately?

🙄 Dang, that’s tough talk, Senator Schumer!
Now, get out your parchment scroll and your feather pen and crank out that strongly worded letter!
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"

Good for Mamdani, but his strategic charisma is no match for Putin’s shaming Trump into grabbing other nations’ sovereign territory. Belittling, threatening, laughing (oh no)!

Trump’s already stated what’s next: Greenland, Cuba.

If there’s no hard, toothy international response now, he won’t stop.
