"We're going to be taking a lot of wealth out of the ground." The American president. Reporters are doing a good job here! Trump is lower than absolute-zero in sanity. Marco, Hegseth, even lower in dignity.

Since illegally abducting Maduro 10 hours ago, Trump has threatened to take action in: - Mexico - Colombia - Cuba It’s blatantly clear he wants to take over the whole region and isn’t gonna let laws get in the way.

Full breakdown:

Popok: What is the plan? Does anybody think Marco Rubio knows how to make a plan to save an entire country? Popok breaks down the latest developments of Venezuela.

The ‘Putinization’ of US foreign policy has arrived in Venezuela

Stephen Miller dreamt of bombing Mexico and Latin America during the first Administration. Replacing Maduro was in Project 2025. The white nationalists and broligarchy (Musk, Thiel) and white Christian nationalists (Vought) are trying to get everything before Trump dies.

Who is we?

for fuck’s sake can someone give these stunted chodes some little green army men and a few toy trucks that go vroom-vroom and let them work out their issues that way instead of whatever this is

Trump says Venezuela's oil wealth "goes also to the United States of America in the form of reimbursement for the damages caused us by that country"

My bootlicking, ass-kissing, war-waging, sycophantic Congressman…

Q: You said that Maduro is responsible for drug trafficking. You recently pardoned the former president of Honduras who was convicted of drug trafficking. How are these situations different? TRUMP: This was a man who was persecuted very unfairly by Biden. Obviously the people liked what I did

All other insanity aside, does anyone know why Trump is calling it “Venezwaylur?”

More reaction to Maduro’s “arrest”

Trump says the U.S. is "going to run" Venezuela until a "proper transition can take place," following a stunning attack that captured Nicolás Maduro. He added the U.S. is "not afraid of boots on the ground." The U.S. ouster of Maduro from the oil-rich nation drew condemnation from across the globe.

Members of Congress: stop posting online and APPEAR, PHYSICALLY on the steps of the Capitol to decry this unconstitutional violation of domestic & international law. SHOW THE PEOPLE the level of danger we are facing as a country. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social

It appears that someone at NBC has royally screwed up and has prematurely released the cold open of tonight's episode of Saturday Night Live

Trump ignores a question about his conversations with JD Vance (if there were any) as he walks away

Trump: "We're going to have our very large United States oil companies go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure and start making money for the country. And we are ready to stage a second and much larger attack if we need to do so."

Trump: "I settled eight and one quarter war. You know what the one quarter was? Thailand and Cambodia. I did it again .... I'm giving myself one quarter."

Trump on the US running Venezuela: It will not cost us anything because the money coming out of the ground is substantial. We’re going to take back the oil.

❓ Ukrainian ruling party head and parliament speaker explain conditions needed for referendum and war-time presidential election

Trump on Machado: I think it will be very tough for her to be the leader, she does not have the support or respect of the country. She is a nice woman but she does not have the respect.

Reporter: How long do you expect the U.S. to run Venezuela Trump: I would like to do it quickly but it takes time. Their infrastructure is rotted. It is very dangerous. Oil is very dangerous. We will take a lot of money out so we can take care of the country.

Countries Trump Has Threatened With Additional Illegal Aggression in the Last 24 Hours 🇻🇪 Venezuela 🇮🇷 Iran 🇲🇽 Mexico 🇨🇴 Colombia 🇨🇺 Cuba He’s out of control. He’s deranged. This is the opposite of what he promised America when he ran for president. He said he’d focus on *us*.

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month. It’s about oil and regime change. And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

“We’ll be selling oil in large amounts to other countries,” Trump tells a reporter after kidnapping Maduro, announcing “we” will run Venezuela. This lawless thug and his criminal henchman have abandoned the international order. Yes, there is no bottom.

U.S. oil companies are going to take over Venezuela’s oil fields and industry, President Trump said, declaring that U.S. oil interests will revive oil production in a country with one of the world’s largest reserves.

"We will continue to emphasize how the rule of law makes America the last best hope on Earth - compared to countries where editorial teams are not installed by billionaires in order to grease the wheels of corporate deals with political leaders the editorial teams are then asked to report on."

The Eternal Question...

Way to go, Cincinnati! Protesters “welcomed” JD Vance back to Ohio. Demonstrators lined the route of Vance’s motorcade. Signs reading “Yes, It’s Cold. We Won’t Stop,” “Stop the Cover-Up,” and “JD Protects Pedophiles.”

Bari Weiss’ rebrand of CBS News as “Fox News but way less successful!” is coming along apace.

This is our party, and we know you're part of it, too. It's not partisan. It's what's right.

Why go to the bother of investigating current events when you can simply regurgitate propaganda pablum instead?

The manosphere promises to fix young men’s lives. Instead, it’s making them miserable.

The challenges we now face must be met by a bold progressive populist movement that strengthens democracy and shakes up the system. We can’t simply return to the path we were on before Trump. We cannot accept the status quo of Big Money dominating our politics and economy.

Minnesota child care centers at the center of widespread fraud allegations fueled by a viral video were operating as expected when visited by investigators, the state Department of Children, Youth, and Families said in a news release.
