A very long and important THREAD -
The real reason the US is invading Venezuela goes back to a deal Henry Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia in 1974.
And I'm going to explain why this is actually about the SURVIVAL of the US dollar itself.
Not drugs. Not terrorism. Not "democracy." 1/

it's Christmas Eve but it's also the 16 year anniversary of the time an art historian for the Hungarian National Gallery spotted a long lost painting while watching Stuart Little with his 3-year-old daughter, recognizing it in the movie set

TRUMP [after spending 5 minutes with Zohran]: surplus value, it’s a very wonderful thing, very wonderful, and they’re stealing it. Can you believe that?

FAR more ironic - and tragic - than "Murphy Brown's daughter" (Chloe Malle) knifing @teenvogue.com in the back is that she's also the daughter of Louis Malle, director of Au Revoir Les Enfants, a great film about children being disappeared from classrooms by a fascist state. "Never forget", Chloe.

We were thrilled to have the one and only Valerie Mahaffey star in 3 of our movies. She was smart, funny, kind & an amazing actress. As one critic said, When Valerie Mahaffey comes onto the screen it's like somebody opened a bottle of champagne.
