if you are talking today about how bad maduro was and were alive, at all, during the run-up to the iraq war you are potentially the dumbest person to ever live

Trump just dismissed Nobel Prize winner Maria Muchado being considered as interim president of Venezuela. He said “She’s a nice woman” but can’t run the country. What happens when the people of Venezuela decide they want self-determination? American boots on the ground will be needed to keep peace.

Very important in these media times to distinguish between independent journalists who do real reporting, and newsfluencers who repackage others’ work. It’s right to direct people to seek reporters with frontline sources, and wrong to smear independent journalists ly lumping us in with pretenders
Believe it or not, independent journalists can get our own frontline sources.
It’s old-fashioned to defend mainstream journalism these days but some of the most reliable reporting from people actually on the ground will be the AP and Reuters the next 24 hours. Your Substack journalist writing takes will be using frontline reporting from them.

This country is governed by people who manufacture crises, lie to justify violence, and then tell us it’s for our own good. They wreck lives abroad while people here can’t afford to live. This isn’t strength or strategy and it doesn't make us safer. The opposite. It’s incompetence, cruelty, and rot.

Speaking with Vanity Fair in November, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles admitted that a military strike in Venezuela would require a congressional act of war. “If he were to authorize some activity on land, then it’s war, then [we’d need] Congress."

Obviously he should be impeached for this. But he also should have been impeached for 500 other things the past year. As much as I wish it were so I don’t see this as some magical tipping point for the opposition party to start opposing things

Trump just invaded Venezuela and kidnapped the President and his wife so let’s check in on the top Democrats’ swift responses to this enormously risky and profoundly illegal act

we need to ask for guillotines and put up this as the compromise
Anyway. Repeal the Hague Invasion Act, sign the Rome Statute, refer the entire administration to the ICC.

This is effectively a hostile takeover, with intent to strip a public entity for profit, then run it into the ground.

He's doing foreign policy like a private equity firm.
Trump: "We're going to stay [in Venezuela] until such time as the proper transition can take place…We're going to run it, essentially, until such time."

A side story is there’s a ton of insider trading on these prediction markets. New accounts making hundreds of thousands on their first and only trade, that maduro would be ousted. Seems like insider trading is legal if not encouraged on these platforms

you can’t tell Congress you’re kidnapping another sovereign nation’s leaders so you can forcibly take it over?!?!
Rubio: This is not the kind of mission you can do congressional notification on.

Trump: Congress will leak. We don't want leakers.

And of course, we can all expect their idea of "the average American" to lean heavily in favor of straight white men.

This isn't about democratizing the news. It's about elevating "vibes" and "feelings" to be on par with lived experience and subject-matter expertise.
