imagine telling yourself on january 6, 2021 that five years from now things would be so much worse

'We were told that Maduro is hugely unpopular, but we did not see waves of Venezuelans come out to celebrate his abduction—they came out to demand his release (remember, they did the same back in 2002 for Hugo Chavez and they got their way).' open.substack.com/pub/councile...

Judge presiding over SATANYAHUS corruption trial is killed in a hit and run🤔 caliber.az/en/post/judg... www.rokna.net/Section-poli...

It is the IDF that continuosly breaks the ceasefire, while they accuse Palestinians. This #genocide will never end. The world will remain aware. The crimes are well documented. History will judge them and us without mercy. Courts will maybe not.

BREAKING 🚨 🚨 🚨 Judge Benny Sagi, president of Israel’s Beersheba District Court, who presided over the corruption case against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, was killed in a traffic accident on Route 6 when a vehicle struck his motorcycle. caliber.az/en/post/judg...

The Judge for the Netanyahu case was just killed in a hit and run. How normal.

Sounds like the Jusge Xinis is going to put ill style swinging from Trump et al’s junk. Wonder if Trump will have him killed before the judge exposes them for the enemies of the state that they are? news.yahoo.com/judge-launch...

BREAKING: Fox News has confirmed that when it reported that no people were killed during attacks on Venezuela, it meant no white people were killed. Over 80 brown people were killed, but Fox doesn't care about those ♥️

BREAKING: Netanyahu has confirmed he had nothing to do with the death of the judge who was presiding over his corruption case and the car crash was definitely an accident. I trust this settles the matter.

I used to think that Trump covering up the Epstein files was bad, but now that he is waging an illegal war against Venezuela and kidnapping people and stealing oil, I totally forgot that he is a paedophile and rapist ♥️

.@PabloReports: What do you make of the White House blaming the police for what happened on January 6th? Lieu: The White House’s statement is batshit crazy.

“The weird men online have endless reservoirs of psychological dysfunction and large expanses of time to marshall their obsessions into people’s mentions. More often than not, they win.” They win not just because there are no consequences but ‘decent men’ give them a seat at the table. #nzpol

Oh the irony, the irony that even after this excellent piece, Andrew Little rewarded Ray Chung with a committee chair position. @andrewlittlenz.bsky.social

Nikita Gill consistently on point.

Media in the last week of december: "Do kiwis take too long off in summer?" Prime minister: "I'll be back to work on the 3rd or 4th of Jan" January 7th (and counting): Prime minster: *crickets*

Paul Singer, whose firm owns the US subsidiary of Venezuela's state-owned oil company, spent millions in 2024 to re-elect Trump. Now, after Trump's invasion of Venezuela on behalf of Big Oil, he's set to cash in on his investment. A government of, by, and for the billionaires.

We leave the house for two hours and there he is, completely baked, upside down on the sofa, listening to psychedelic rock music.

i’m always so moved when anyone supports my work. messages like this remind who i’m working for—and it’s definitely not the billionaires.

Disabled people are not expendable. The elderly are not expendable. Children are not expendable. Worth should never be tied to economic productivity. If we protected the most vulnerable in society, everyone would be better off.

“The appetite for jumping into Venezuela right now is pretty low,” one oil industry source told CNN. “The president’s desire is different than the industry’s. And the White House would have known that if they had communicated with the industry prior to the operation.” www.cnn.com/2026/01/05/b...

Yet another huge contract, awarded without any competitive bidding process, to Wes Streeting's favourite NHS supplier, the Hard Right US surveillance tech specialists Palantir, for military decision making capability.

The highest rate on record. It staggers me that no-one in public health seems to be acknowledging that immune dysregulation caused by prior SARS-CoV-2 infection is likely a significant factor in this, and the implications of this concept going forward. abcnews.go.com/Health/flu-a...

Big Oil spent nearly $100M to get Trump elected in 2024. Now Trump is returning the favor, giving them advance notice of his Venezuela attack and sending their stocks skyrocketing by promising them control of the country's oil reserves. This is what oligarchy looks like.

People can spout any old bollocks these days and it no longer matters whether it's true. "This shit executive estate contains unique homes." "The President is not Satan." "Your cat ran a high-end interior decor business during the 1990s." So where do we find truth? Books, that's fucking where.

More "OuStEd" rubbish

'In 2018, Maduro was re-elected President. A section of the opposition boycotted the election,a tactic tried against Chavez. The boycott failed: 9,389,056 people voted; sixteen parties participated and six candidates stood for the presidency.Maduro won 6,248,864 votes,or 67.84 per cent' John Pilger

In this analysis, John Pilger looks back over the Chavez years in Venezuela, including his own travels with Hugo Chavez, and the current US and European campaign to overthrow Nicolas Maduro in a ‘coup by media’ and to return Latin America to the 19th and 20th centuries. prruk.org/how-the-war-...

If you want to understand the background the the USAs role in Venezuela you watch The War on Democracy by the late great John Pilger. The time is different as are the personnel but the ideology is the same. johnpilger.com/the-war-on-d...

John Pilger had a documentary about Venezuela - a good crash course for why they invaded today. And you can watch it for free on YouTube now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyWVh4kRyg4

John Pilger on #Democracy #newspeak #Venezuela #Maduro #Imperialism #Globalization

If you're interested in #Venezuela #Maduro #Chavez #Chavismo and the ugly history of U.S. involvement in Latin America, this is a must see: The War on Democracy (2007) by John Pilger. Documentary Film. m.youtube.com/watch?v=8gNc...

If John Pilger was around today, he'd have a lot to say about the Venezuela situation.
