Two things were happening as Trump decided to launch his imperial strike on Venezuela. One was the DOJ filing w/the court explanations for their redactions in the Epstein files they released. The other was Jim Jordan’s release of the transcript of Jack Smith’s testimony.
So I read the transcript.

I feel nauseous what my country is becoming
Reporter: Did you speak with the oil companies before the operation? Did you tip them off?
Trump: Before and after. They want to go in and they’re going to do a great job.

Well the good news I guess is that now we know officially that Congress is disconnected from our system of government.
we must build something new.

The big story has been the collapse of legacy media and big law as a bulwark against authoritarianism.

What’s nauseating is that evidently the FBI would rather protect Trump than restore the rule of law
The truth seems obvious to anyone willing to open their eyes. Trump has decided that whatever the files contain is more damaging to him than the political cost of keeping them under wraps as the country clamors for their release. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/for-...
For Trump, the Epstein Cover-Up Beats the Truth
As one of her first acts as Attorney General, Pam Bondi wrote a letter to the new head of the FBI, Kash Patel, demanding that the “full and complete Epstein files” be delivered to her office by the ne...

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

I empathize with my fellow humans who wish for the end to horrific regimes who have killed and tortured many thousands. One might long for a strongman to take that regime out by any means.
Is lawless kidnapping an end? Or only a turning of the page from one horrific chapter to the next. Ask Iran.

What the United States did in Venezuela is prohibited under international law, which bars the use of force as an instrument of national policy.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.
The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

If the United States of America is not now a dictatorship and a threat to the entire world, Congress must impeach, convict, remove and the courts must indict him immediately.

I’d the United States is not a dictatorship and a threat to the entire world, All of Congress must impeach, convict, and indict NOW.
The aging pedophile who wants to be a king has kidnapped the leader of a sovereign nation without congressional approval.
If the United States had an opposition party, they would treat this as an illegitimate act and start impeachment proceedings immediately.

Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.

To any Iranian friends who may be excited at Trump’s illegal kidnapping of a foreign head of state, do you really want to be run by another dictator from a foreign land? Cuz that’s what this is and it should be immediately shut down.
