Maduro's Trial: What to Look For open.substack.com/pub/spytalk/...

Joint Statement on Greenland, issued today, from the leaders of Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, and Spain:

France at the UN Security Council: "The military operation which led to the capture of Nicolas Maduro runs counter to the principle of peaceful dispute resolution and the principle of non use of force. Violations of the UN Charter... chips away at the very foundation of the international order."

Despots care not. They want only power, money, and to inflict death and suffering.

In the immediate aftermath of the 1989 US invasion, a brief lull was followed by lawlessness and barricades on the streets -- policemen fled their posts, jails unguarded. The US then enforced a curfew. What will the night bring in Caracas with a metro population of around 5 million? US occupation?

The worst part is the bit where the SCOTUS and Congress aided & abetted.

Truth.

MI6 has the Epstein files. Leak 'em. Sans redactions.

In the months leading up to his murder, Khashoggi was reportedly researching a story that linked senior Saudi officials—including members of the royal family—to offshore accounts revealed in the Panama Papers.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered. He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here : www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/glo...

What a disgrace. And what an embarrassment for @cnn.com.

The shocking, disgusting, vile Washington Post editorial approving of Trump’s heinous, clandestine destruction of the White House East Wing doesn’t even mention that Post owner Jeff Bezos is a Trump supplicant who is donating money to his vulgar new “ballroom.” open.substack.com/pub/genewein...

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube. Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X). *1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.” youtu.be/5t5QK03KXPc

Home wrecker: Trump begins demolishing East Wing facade to build his ballroom. He’d promised not to “interfere” with the existing White House structure.

Easy-peasy: With a phone call, Putin appears to change Trump’s mind on Ukraine. Again. #TACODon
