US TAx payers will pay for BIG OIL corps new profits.
Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"

BRENNAN: The president's last envoy to Venezuela, Elliot Abrams, says US oil executives seem to be coming to Mar-a-Lago and whispering about how easy life would be if we just made a deal with the regime once Maduro is gone. Is that what happened here?

Governing or occupying? neither is acceptable to US.
The U.S. military captured the Venezuelan president, Nicolás Maduro, early Saturday. At a news conference hours later, President Trump said that the U.S. would “run” the country. He offered few details about how the U.S. would oversee Venezuela, or for how long. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Well, 47 invades Venezuela for oil, is it oil we can refine in US? Is it sweet crude, or sour crude?
This is how you do it. No preamble to swear to God you don't like Maduro.
