Briefly tuned into Tapper on CNN spouting "both sides" nonsense about the murder. What a worthless network that is.

Donald Trump said that the oil corporations were notified before the attack on Venezuela and after the attack on Venezuela. No wonder that person made $400,000 betting on the invasion. They had an inside scoop.

The Perilous Position of Delcy Rodríguez. I don't see any way that she can meet the demands of Trump and hand over control of her country to the United States, especially their petroleum industry, without putting herself and her country in extreme danger. She would risk assassination.

MAGA is flooding the social media zone claiming that she was trying to run over an ICE officer. They're okay with an agent being judge, jury, and executioner. I've watched the video a number of times and it appears to me that this was just a scared woman trying to get away.

One thanks for certain. This murderer's life is about to get intolerable and a lot more complicated as it should. No going back home to a peaceful house. In this political climate his family is in danger of course. Not sure why he would want to do this to himself and his family.

DHS, BORDER PATROL, or ICE. We're going to find out who this murder works for and who he is. His life is going to get intolerable as it should. And it looks to me that he should be arrested for murder.

I've watched the video a few times and I do not understand which side of the vehicle the shooter was on. Anyone? Damn I feel stupid.

It gets worse.

Are there any videos showing the front of the car as she drives away? I'm just curious because there's a lot of assholes claiming that she hit an officer with her car.

Why does this not surprise me.

A surprising amount of people think it's okay for law enforcement to give our the death penalty for merely leaving. I guess I probably shouldn't be surprised.

I cannot stand the legal pundits on television right now asking people to not jump to conclusions. There's no indication that the vehicle was trying to ram anybody but instead there's every indication that the officer opened fire for no reason.

Well it looks like ICE is cutting out the middleman. Normally they round up people to place in private detention facilities for profit where those private detention folks neglect and let people die. Now they're just going straight for killing on the streets beforehand.

She just confirmed. Good lord these people are fucking stupid.

Oh shit I made a mistake of turning on MSNOW to hear about the shooting. I need to wait at least until Deadline White House before I even think about going to that rancid sewer pit.

Bottom line. When Republicans use the words "we" or "ours", whatever the subject is, they are not talking about you and me.

Why is Trump demanding two days worth of oil from Venezuela? Weird.

No Venezuelan leader now, or going forward, thinks that they can hand over control of their country to the United States and survive. They're a big decentralized pockets of power in that country that will not stand for that to happen. It would be a death sentence if they did.

A witness to Wednesday’s shooting in south Minneapolis told MPR News that she saw a federal agent shoot a woman several times. www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

Who do you think they're going to put in these massive detention centers they're building when they run out of immigrants? Shareholders will demand a return on their investments and bodies equal profits. This is fascism 101. youtube.com/watch?v=1Z3c...

Know this. When Republicans get in front of the cameras and say things like "we want a change in Venezuela" or another term they frequently use is "our oil", they aren't talking about us the American people. They are talking about their billionaire corporate buddies.

Lots of times I feel like saying if you didn't vote for Hillary or Kamala you need to sit down and STFU about where we are. You helped create this. I guess I just said it. 😎😝

Kudos to California. Data brokers are not happy about this taking effect. privacy.ca.gov/drop/

By what authority is United States seizing these tankers? Anyone know?

Their attempts to rewrite the January 6th history proves that they should not be public servants. It also proves that they are petty propagandists with a horrible agenda. They should be nowhere near the levers of power in our federal government yet here we are.

Cuba. That's the target Marco Rubio wants the most. Rightwing Cuban exiles have been waiting 65 years. I think Lawrence O'Donnell is correct. Cuba is the main target.

I'm old enough to remember when #MAGA went on and on about getting involved in foreign engagements around the world and how they were so opposed to that. We need to take a care of America they said. Now their leader is demanding control of the western hemisphere and only MTG seems to be upset.

The only way to approach Fakebook is to hit and didn't look back. The responses from the flying monkey right are psychotic. Do not engage.

This sounds like what? Dementia? Is anyone buying this gibberish?

I think Lawrence O'Donnell made a interesting point tonight. Cuba is the goal. He thinks the rest is distraction and it's kind of a personal vendetta for Rubio

In the current situation the Major General Smedley Butler, USMC comes to mind. www.sdvfp.org/war-is-a-rac...

So what happens when Venezuela does not agree to Trump's demands to cut ties with Russia, China, Iran, etc and to let in the United States have access to their oil exclusively? Is Barron Trump going to suit up and be one of the first boots on the ground?

Yup

Idiots on Fakebook are acting like Venezuelans are celebrating. I guess they actually think that the Maduro regime is no longer in power? I don't know how these people feed and clothe themselves honestly.

These are not just being built for immigrants. These are being built for dissension. Free speech will not be tolerated in an authoritarian regime. youtu.be/1Z3clXbJN1Y?...

If it wasn't for cognitive dissonance, they would not have any thoughts at all.

Though it still has not been litigated as to whether the statute of limitations can be paused for trump pursuant to the DOJ OLC memo stating that you can't prosecute a sitting president. Jack Smith mentioned this in his bid to dismiss the J6 case against Trump without prejudice.

Donnie doesn't give a shit about freedom and democracy. He doesn't care who runs Venezuela or anywhere else as long as they like him.

I would be in no way be shocked that what they are trying to hide in the Epstein files is the fact that Epstein and Trump were in business together to traffic young girls to be raped by wealthy men.

🤣🤣🤣

In a sane world an ally like Greenland would be negotiated with to meet both of our countries needs. In Trump's insane world he just says "fuck it let's take them over".

Oil corporations intentionally fix production levels to keep oil prices where they want them. And yet there's so many idiots out there saying that if Trump gets Venezuelan oil then our prices are going to go down at the pump. Idiocracy on steroids.

I've got news for Machado. Donald Trump wants a brutal dictatorship as long as it's friendly to him. For him that's ideal. He doesn't give a fuck about democracy or freedom for Venezuela.

I think Barron Trump should be one of the first boots on the ground in Venezuela.

And then the oil corporations claimed he didn't inform them beforehand. The sets of a scenario of which oligarchs are you going to believe?

Look at what they're trying to do to Senator Kelly for his free speech. Now imagine what they're going to try to do to us eventually for speaking our minds.

The exponential increase in funding for detention of immigrants is leading to massive private detention camps being built in remote areas of the United States. You couple this with a military that's willing to obey a legal orders and it's a recipe for disaster. This is where we're headed folks.

If any pundit, politician, or anyone else tells you that petroleum extracted from the United States is "our oil" then you should know that they're brainwashing you. It's no more "our oil" than Chevron is your personal corporation.

It wasn't that long ago that MAGA was claiming Harris would get us into wars. theintercept.com/2026/01/06/t...
