In his deranged, dictatorial mind Cuba is a "failed country" therefore he needs to invade it too!? Of course, early into his new term he threatened to attack Mexico. This is about recolonization. For all those who proudly proclaim, "I like his policies", how do you like them now? Never mind.

💯👍💯👍

Stop with the claim he is joking! He is serious! The so-called president of the U.S. ( I say, Squatter of the U.S.) believes he deserves a monetary reward for illegally capturing the president of a sovereign country! This is the reason for a reward in the first place! So he could make this claim!

I'm not buying it one bit! She went along with everything Trump did. She doesn't understand that various forms of recording devices have been around since the late 1800s. Now, she wants to pretend that she was conned by Trump. If she is that easy to con, she had no business being in Congress.

Would it have mattered? Since when did the MAGAs in the Senate care about their balance of power being extinguished by Trump and his gang of autocrats? They have gone along with everything else he has done. Now, they want to pretend. If Trump had notified them, they would have gladly gone along.

🎯🎯

So, does he believe that this Putin-like invasion is going to earn the respect he delusionally claims had been lost before he became Squatter of the United States? The worst part is the lack of total bipartisan support to stop him, to impeach him, and yes, to invoke the 25th Amendment.

Yes! This is how petty and deranged he is. Look at how he has behaved over Obama winning the Prize. He has been attacking Obama ever since and has become obsessed with getting one because "the Black" got one that he supposedly didn't deserve. He has never forgiven the Prize Committee either.

IMO, this could be about recolonizing South and Central America and reinstalling a false belief of superiority over Brown people in Mexico and Latin America. Expelling Brown people who are here legally, illegally, who are citizens, Green Card holders, it doesn't matter. It was just the beginning.

Beside this, it is costing us plenty! How about our world leadership, allies, respect, influence, cooperation, trade, security, trust, morality, our democratic principles, our Republic, checks and balances, the rule of law, etc.

Is this sister to, "It doesn't matter how many times you fall. What matters is how many times you get up"? Also, "failure isn't absolute nor permanent". It only means that you failed this time. But it will become absolutely permanent if you quit trying to succeed.

Add to this the attitude of, "Not me or anyone I care about. So...oh,well".

I don't mean to rain on your comments, but we shouldn't be taking for granted the Democrats are going to win at all, not to mention "big". We cannot assume Trump's negativities will turn voters away from MAGA to vote for Democrats. They didn't in 2024. Voters knew what they were getting then too.

Say What!? Is Trump "America First"? How about his entire cabinent? "America First" doesn't mean grifting from taxpayers, committing crimes against the American people, violating federal laws and the Constitution. "America First" means putting the Constitution above all else! How about him!?

1. I get about 10-15 text messages a day from various Democrats asking for donations. In the past, I would donate to several of them who I believed were truly working to make things better for the American people. But none ever ask what I feel they can do to make things better for us.

This is the Democrat Leader of the Senate!? Such a lame and weak response to what is an illegal invasion of a soveriegn country. All under the transparent pretext of stopping drugs that ARE NOT coming into the U.S. It has always been about the oil. Trump has now clearly admitted it!

Moreso the lives of Venezuelans. They will be the ones who are harmed the most by being illegally invaded. Not our military. They are following what probably are illegal orders based on the Hague and Geneva Conventions. The United Nations too. I say this as someone who served for 22 years.

It has never been about drugs, even though that excuse isn't justified either. It has always been about the oil! Every word coming from Trump's mouth about this entire criminal action says it has always been about the oil. He always tells on himself, but he is too addled to realize it.

Hmmm...this is a typically mild Democratic response...IMO. I mean, seriously, is this all he has to say? I like Pritzker because he has been fighting back against Trump, but surely he can come up with something stronger than this! The lunatic just invaded a soveriegn country to steal its oil!!

Sure is! Also, he had tremendous difficulty comprehending briefings before his brain became completely addled. Imagine him trying to understand what's going on now that his brain cells can't half-fill a thimble.

This so-called SCIF is probably made of cardboard set up in his bathroom where he kept all the top-secret and above top-secret stolen documents. Why are they at Mar-a-Lago instead of the WH Situation Room where it is actually a secure location? Hear that pin drop? That's the MAGAs in Congress.

This is all a F'ing game to them! They are like those who, rather than help or contact First Responders, they record tragic situations to put on social media to go viral and get 'likes'. This is a damn social media event to them!!

Looks to me like he is trying to stay awake!! Now, do all the loud-mouths like future MAGA politician Steven A. Smith, and others who are as clueless, understand why former military members in Congress were cautioning about following illegal orders?

From Trump's perspective, Venezuelans' rights, interests, and agency are absolutely irrelevant. We--the US--"need to be surrounded by safe countries" and we--the US--"also need the energy out of the ground." This is "when you're a star, they let you do it" but as foreign policy.

Before he announced that he was "taking back" Venezuela's oil, Trump declared that he was going to take back the Panama Canal from...China. Both claims are examples of Trump's bizarre "America First" approach to foreign policy.

They'd been planning this for months and months. Built a replica of Maduro's safe house and practiced: www.reuters.com/business/aer...

Trump just posted this photo of the sharpest minds in our intelligence community hard at work during the Venezuelan operation.

reminder that during WWII the US used the Monroe doctrine to justify taking control of Greenland...and basically we refused to entirely leave after the war

I am almost at a loss for words. I mean, I am running out of them, since I have used so many to describe this lunatic. Meanwhile, MAGA Autocrats in Congress and the Supreme Court have blessed him and anointed him as untouchable. But, "I love his policies", right? Remember November 3rd!!

Once upon a time it was the U.S. that would help expose the truth about other countries when those countries refused to do so themselves. Now, it is other countries exposing the truth about the U.S. because, aided by corporate media, the U.S. refuses to do so itself. My, how far we have fallen!!

The Elites and millions of delusional poor and middle-class love to brag, "America is the wealthiest country in the history of the world". Concentrated in the hands of only a few, relatively. They even have those most in need arguing on their behalf!! "Where is the money going to come from?".

1. We have a seriously mentally ill Squatter occupying the WH that is run by a gang of criminals and autocrats who want to tear up our Constitution. The sycophants and enablers in Congress gladly sit on their hands with rags stuffed in their mouths while a madman invades a sovereign country.

After invading a sovereign country, will he now beg even louder for a Nobel Peace Prize? After all, he is the "President of Peace" who has "ended" at least 8 wars in less than 12 months. By invading a sovereign country because of "drugs", does this mean he has ended another war...a drug war?

OK...hear me out. Using logic, if Trump can invade a sovereign country for no reason, can another country, say China, do the same to this country and not be held accountable? Oops! I said, for no reason. There is a reason. It is for "drugs". In Trump World, "drugs" is spelled O-I-L!!

The convicted felon, supporter of a child sex trafficker and possible member of the ring himself, a sexual abuser (judge said rapist), leader of an insurrection, etc., was given immunity by our "Supreme" Court. Yet, he is playing judge and jury when it comes to another country's president!?

1. Maduro is not a good guy by any stretch of the imagination. 2. But capturing him through an extra-legal action that violates international law undermines any US credibility with Russia in Ukraine and China with Taiwan. 3. We have a terrible history with topping leaders without a post-war plan.

I know I've been beating this drum for over seven years now, but Donald Trump is a very and truly sick man who should be in a mental or penal institution and certainly not the White House.

Strange how trump is so concerned about Iran killing protesters, when he has indicated his own desire to do just that here.

“A dark moment.”

Zero grounds! Also, with the recent threats against Iran, he and his MAGA Autocrats are signaling to China that it is OK to invade Taiwan. It is the same game he is playing with Putin against Ukraine. America is no more "The shinning beacon on the hill", if it ever was.

This is for all those who proudly proclaim, when asked why they voted for and continue to support Trump, "I like his policies". Is this their idea of, "Make America Great Again"? Then, there those who claim regret with, "I didn't vote for this". Yes, you did!! You got exactly what you asked for!

The doctors chosen by a criminal fraud who knowingly surrounded himself with criminals willing to lie, commit crimes, and fall on a grenade for him said he's in good mental health, so that should totally be "okay" for everyone to believe. Right.

💯👍💯👍 Exactly! It has never been about drugs. Just as the so-called 'War on Drugs' has never been about drugs, but about criminalizing certain groups of people. In this case, it is about oil. It has always been about stealing oil. Trump has actually admitted it in his usual confessional manner.

DOJ is still in violation of the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

1. Todd Blanche held between $159,000-$485,000 in crypto investments 2. To get confirmed as DOJ #2, he committed to divesting 3. He issued a memo ending investigations into crypto companies 4. Then he transferred the assets to family See the problem?
