States must step in and counter this foolish and dangerous idiot

If you still need to share a link to a tweet, but don't want to send people to Musk's cesspool - replace "x" with "xcancel" in the tweet link. For example x.com/dril/status/... becomes xcancel.com/dril/status/... People will still see the tweet, but without going to Twitter.

They're emboldened. The rest of the world needs to be ready because these assholes aren't done. Cancel or relocate FIFA. Cancel or relocate the Olympics. Recall ambassadors. Suspend any joint projects or talks. UN resolutions. Won't matter to the assholes but for crissakes draw some lines.

Plan accordingly

Saw reports oil companies really didn't want this, that they stand to lose billions trying to revive Venezuela's oil industry during time of high supply/low prices. So someone then says "See it isn't about oil" as if the orange turd gets basic economics. Fucker bankrupted casinos, for crissakes.

So if a US indictment isn't enforceable outside our borders, isn't that the first thing Maduro's defense lawyers are going to raise? That he shouldn't even be in a US courtroom absent legal extradition? Or will the judge consider it a fait accompli ... he's here so the case can proceed?

Yes but the Dems won't

A CBS News staffer told me this after Tony Dokoupil kicked off his CBS Evening News tenure tonight with a lengthy Pete Hegseth interview: "If this is what Bari and Tony’s CBS Evening News is going to look like, then the we may as well just call ourselves Trump Administration State TV. Pathetic."

The score should be 17-0 ....

Has SF had the ball yet tonite?

I feel sorry for their kids. To have such horrible, bigoted, evil parents isn't something any child should be burdened with.

I miss the days when these racist choads were barking their nonsense at home or in the local pull tab tavern instead

Gee, Chuck, it's not news to anyone paying attention that they lie about .... well, everything. How fucking gullible are you?

Venezuela didn't steal oil. It's not ours.

Good to see

Always read Jim Fallows fallows.substack.com/p/blind-into...

This is what the oil companies bought with their support and donations: the right to be forced to lose billions in Venezuela. Fucking greedy fucks

This

Germans are smart to make plans without US which is at best untrustworthy and possibly a future opponent

No one should go to work on Monday. National strike until the orange turd goes.

This whole Russia turns a blind eye in our backyard in exchange for US abandoning Ukraine makes sense. Cuba right now must be wondering about any security guarantees from pootin. I'd guess they mean nothing. That's why Rubio has debased himself so much. He wants to be the "liberator" of Cuba

This may be a show for public consumption or taco lied earlier. Which, y'know, of course he did. Curious as to how we're going to "run" VZ after a hit-and-leave capture strike. Demand specific actions by tweet and bomb if they don't do as we say? Mercenaries? Hello Erik Prince. Madness.

they so desperately wanted their “killing of bin laden” photo and instead i just see a bunch of terminally online dopes gazing at their own reflection on X

I'm embarrassed & ashamed. The US has never been perfect, at times farther from good than bad and at others closer. But the promise of better has always been there for the striving. The corruption, malfeasance, greed, and indecency on display the past year is staggering, disheartening.

Wish they would. Suspect it's business as usual

In case anyone didn't notice, the DOJ has charged Maduro with the exact same crimes the former president of Honduras, Hernandez, was tried and convicted for. The same tried and convicted former prez that Trump took a bribe to fully pardon. Anyone doubt the same isn't coming for Maduro?

Absolute agree with the article you've written. Too bad all my Trump loving neighbors will respond by saying, "Yeah maybe this isn't what I thought America First meant, but as long as we keep that trans kid off the swim team I'm good with it".

“For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul?” —Mark 8:36

The indictment against Maduro is about cocaine. If we had an honest White House Press Corps, every press interview Trump did would start with why he pardoned a narco terrorist president who imported 400 tons of cocaine into the United States.

Honestly they don't care as long as the oil flows. An unstable Venezuela actually works for them as an excuse to delay/cancel midterms. Much easier than any insurrection act bs because the courts here can't do anything

Mark it now: we will start seeing stories of little advance planning about the occupation. DOD and State will start pointing fingers at each other. Iraq all over again.

Of course they haven't. The folks Dubya had running things were at least competent and they fucked up Iraq ... You think this lot of bigoted blowhard podcasters has any clue what to do?

Ah so this is Lil Marco's payoff

Every nation should refuse to participate in the tournament unless moved from the US. They won't, but they should.

Cancer research costs too much but we have the money to run Venezuela

The Framers of the US Constitution would like a word

They won't but the international community should be recalling ambassadors, suspending all talks and agreements.

Don't put it past trump to have already cut this deal with Xi. Buy our soybeans and we'll look the other way ...

It was always about the oil. If you didn't see that ... well. Share some of whatever you're on because I need a break from this shit.

Dark day. Worse, it feels, than Iraq. That's all I have.

This is correct

News for conspiracy theory idiots. Merica.

Can't believe them. Don't believe them. They lie.

When did we start needing to give them an email address to see a gift article? I want to see the database but fuck the Washington Post all the way off I'm not registering to do so

I'm no fan of Miami but any team thumping Ohio State is going to get my endorsement.

Never a question in my mind

Hell to the yes

They're getting the responses I'm sure they wanted - over on the hellsite all the foreign based bots are cheering & sharing; on here there is anger & unease. Those doing this are immature trolls who exist to trigger people & normalize bigotry. That our tax dollars are paying for it is disgusting.

I suspect at least four of these will be tested and/or challenged in the coming months. This regime has a history of doing illegal things and saying "what are you going to do about it?" I remain firm in my belief the midterms will either not be allowed to happen OR some results will be negated.
