"The Republican party is an outright enemy of democratic interests around the world" is an objectively true statement and something that I don't know if the current crop of Dem pols are gonna be able to fully embrace

The significant part of it for Americans is going to be recognizing the role the republican party as currently constituted plays in the alliance of global antidemocratic forces
We should think broadly about this as the menagerie of democracies constituting it may include states that don't yet exist and other powerful corporate bodies politic that aren't territorial states at all.
It feels like things are going to get much weirder very soon and we should brace ourselves.

the administration wants to frame this (bizarrely) as law enforcement. but if law enforcement conducted a raid for a suspect and killed 40 people, including an unknown number of unarmed civilians, it would be treated as a clear disaster like Waco.
NYT:
At least 40 people were killed in the US attack on Venezuela, including military personnel and civilians.

There is a difference between considering the former regime of Maduro as illegitimate and celebrating the attack of a foreign power without even the attempt of justification under international law as 'liberation'.

Sadly, this seems to be the EU line - not a word of criticism of the US violating international law. Capitulation.
Basically giving a green light to any dictator to invade another country and remove its leader if they don't like him.
