Excellent discussion- thank you. Interesting that invading Venezuela was listed in the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025. They seem to be following that roadmap pretty seamlessly, so this shouldn’t be as big of a surprise. Christian Nationalist survivor/writer/decoder @Andra Watkins covers this in her last post- totally worth reading.

Uhhhhh he’s a Democrat though (not sure he’s infamous or an idiot either?). I just hope I’ve pointed this out in time and she doesn’t actually retire from journalism as a result of having read this comment 😉.

Suspect Russia is a player in this action. Dictatorship rising is a theme. Lives lost and the power over dance continues.

Whether Maduro is good or bad is irrelevant. It's illegal and wrong. And there is no more dangerous criminal in charge of any country in the world than Trump. Let Venezuela decide who their leader should be. It's not up to anyone outside Venezuela

It’s not by chance or happenstance. This is by design. The parallel is the point. Since when has this administration been about “The People’s best interest.” This has nothing to do with governing or leadership. This is a villain or Team of Villains working for their own purposes to their own benefit. Whatever problems will be left to Americans to pick up the peaces and if his illnesses don’t end his life before the consequences of these actions hit home, he will seek asylum elsewhere. They are all pariahs.
