At PN, I argued that Trump attacked Venezuela not to prevent drug trafficking, and not even really to get oil, but mostly because he is a fascist who thinks military action and murder are fun and manly. www.publicnotice.co/p/trump-vene...
Trump's Venezuela coup sends America down a dark path
He got a taste of violence and clearly wants more.

Joy Reid stated bluntly on my show that news anchors were not allowed to say Trump fell asleep at meetings or events: We literally had pictures of Trump with his eyes straight up closed. He was definitely asleep,” adding, “but we were told we could not say he was asleep.” youtu.be/0o9SsUzGtjg?...

And no fentanyl mentioned… You know, the drug Americans have been murdering civilians over in the Caribbean…

The indictment only mentions cocaine…You know, the drug smuggled into America by former Honduran President, Hernández, who was pardoned by the pedo-criminal after actually smuggling cocaine
AG Pam Bondi says Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, have been indicted in SDNY.

Maduro was previously indicted in 2020 on federal charges including narco-terrorism conspiracy and cocaine importation conspiracy.

Unclear what Flores is charged with.

“You are not entitled to a response from us, or anyone, ever,” Department of Education spokesperson Madison Biedermann wrote after our reporter repeatedly asked agency officials for comment to ensure fairness and accuracy.
Our Reporters Reached Out for Comment. They Were Accused of Stalking and Intimidation.
Our journalists reach out to people they’re writing about to ensure fairness. But in this environment, they’ve found their efforts to do so are more likely to be vilified than appreciated.

The number 1 issue by far for Americans is being unable to afford basic necessities. How does Trump respond? He bombs Venezuela, renames the Kennedy Center after himself, builds a $400 million ballroom to honor himself and is building an Arc de Trump in Wash DC to honor himself. This is the GOP!

No one knows what will happen from here, and we hope for the best, but it’s shocking to have violently overthrown a government and invaded a country explicitly vowing to not only take no displaced persons or refugees but send those already here back no matter how bad it gets.

That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.

Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?

Trump on why he pardoned notorious drug trafficker Juan Hernandez: “It was a Biden set up. Take any country you want. If someone sells drugs in that country, that doesn’t mean you arrest the president and put him in jail for the rest of his life.”

He's literally set himself up as Ruler of Venezuela.

George Bush at least got a congressional resolution and an attempt at a UN resolution before invading and occupying Iraq.

Trump didn't even consult with the Gang of 8 in Congress and now declares himself the ruler. Sheesh.

Imagine believing, and getting mad about, Somali daycare centers having contributed $35 million to the Democrats - a nonsensical, demonstrable, obvious lie.

And yet some *billionaires* believed it and then spread the lie over on Twitter.
