Nazi Germany also pillaged the natural resources of countries it conquered

The agreement isn't costing taxpayers because the cost is just on American oil companies - something like $209 billion to VZ Treasury. It's going to take a lot of time and money to even get to most of those reserves.

If the Nazi's handed you "free" eyeglasses, shoes, clothing, or other personal effects, would you wear them? Or would they have the "ick" factor for the brutality used that resulted in free items for others? We didn't earn that Venezuelan oil, it was plundered. Is there no "ick" factor for the GOP?

Notably, the Venezuelan press is not reporting that a contract has been made but is still discussing the possibility of 100-year leases as something that had been under negotiation, explicitly noting that there was no public contract and no official list of fields.

WHERE IS OUR U.S. CONGRESS?? Stop this treasonous, corrupt, lawbreaking, liar and felon along with his entire regime and hold them accountable by the rule of law. NOW! Our country, democracy, world order and very lives are at stake!!

Oil ≠ refined petroleum products. The US lacks the capacity to make enough gasoline to lower prices. The "drill baby drill" crowd never seems to grasp that inconvenient fact.

There must be someone out there that gives two shits to do something though. How can this be, that there is no authority to take him down once and for all. I've tried to understand why he can't be tried at the Hague, but it's confusing.

So, during their Primaries Rubio, Vance and all others will have to defend this theft along with murders of fishermen and schoolgirls, Iran war, law breaking ICE, Epstein files... unless there is justice and they're all locked up.

They're just following Hitler's SCRIPT just, put into modern-day terms/effects. What will come of this, for the rest of the world? Who will be the US when, the US itself, has been CONSUMED-ENTIRELY by, GREED and HATE?! Who will come to, "our-aid"?

Trump actually posted that the U.S. Secretary of War was involved in the “negotiations”. Great negotiators, the U.S. managed to snag a 100-year lease “at cost” from a country they just invaded. 🤭 Where have we seen this before?

If you read the small print, it involves a joint venture with a private company where the U.S. has a “majority” share of a 100 year lease of a proven oil reserve. So the U.S. is stealing oil that will be extracted sometime over the next 100 years.

CITGO valuation is $15.1 billion. DT sold it to Amber Energy for $5.9 billion. Corporations, hedge funds, and bondholders are lining up with debt/asset claims of $20 billion+. Venezuela is appealing, likely to eventually win. Rich walk away with $$$, we pay Venezuela back. Trust your gut feelings.

And one step closer to taking over the Panama Canal. That and Hormuz will give him virtually 100% control of the global supply chain.

He brags about BS Difficult Oil to Clean Thick crude: Most of Venezuela's oil is extra-heavy and thick like tar‼️ High costs: ‼️It takes expensive tools and special methods to extract and clean this type of oil. Lower profits: Because it is dirty and hard to process, other countries pay less for it.

actually some tx refineries already refine this heavier oil as they refine much of Mexico’s & Colombia’s oil, Mexico has its gas refined in tx, residents around these refineries hate it as it produces a more pungent smell, it’s possible trump did this to squeeze out the lighter Canadian crude

To the Person Sitting in Darkness" This famous Twain essay mocked Western nations and missionaries for spreading violence under the guise of "civilization".He joked that the U.S. flag in the Philippines should have its white stripes painted black and the stars replaced with a skull and crossbones

Mark Twain became a fierce opponent of U.S. colonialism and imperialism at the turn of the 20th century. He saw that the US planned to take over the Philippines instead of freeing it realizing America was acting like an empire which went against its founding idea that people should govern themselves

Trump’s Venezuela oil deal has serious legal problems: • 10 U.S.C. §149 limits the Pentagon’s OSC to loans/guarantees—not equity stakes. • Yet the deal reportedly gives the U.S. 35% ownership. • Venezuela’s Constitution says its oil reserves are inalienable. This is NOT clearly legal.

I laugh (bitterly) when I hear “the UK ended slavery before the US!” Friend, the UK tried to fund their government with slavery but couldn’t make it pay, leading to the South Sea Bubble of 1720.

"Some more overseas oil has been stolen by the US so now it will be cheaper for average Americans". LOL. We must be the stupidest people in history.

It’s a tragedy for such a beautiful country with such great potential, like Venezuela. Trump removes one greedy, corrupt dictator, plundering the country’s resources for his own enrichment and replaces him with …

And this bloated diaper dumper wants to make a trade agreement with Canada Mark Carney is the adult in the room compared to this kindergarden car racer

Part of me can’t help but wonder if this is just another example where he claims a deal just to create leverage. Venezuela has to either deny the deal or go along to get along. He does this all the time. My guess is that this deal never happened. And never will.

Don’t you think Maria Machado would have made the same corrupt deal as Delcy? After all she gave her Nobel Peace Prize to Trump. It’s the people who always suffer, but what is shocking is Maduro’s self serving VP doing a 180 and giving away her country’s biggest asset.

I wonder if Venezuelans will react to Pirate Trump stealing their wealth by using drones like Ukraine has done against Russian oil facilities? But smaller in size but larger in drone swarms to bomb US oil refineries & storage tanks to send the Pirate Thief Trump a message?

Donald Trump once again deflecting his corruption. Each time Don the Con man says it won't cost American taxpayers a dime.... it costs each of the American taxpayers at least $1. He's a desperate corrupt liar

Break-even price on Venezuelan oil is $75. The unstable political situation there makes investment tenuous at best. Trump’s gloating words are empty braggadocio.

Tainted Argentinian beef and and Venezuelan oil. What could go wrong. If I a Venezuela I do the same thing Argentina did. Give us the leftovers. The rotted beef and the heavy or sour oil that cost a lot more to refine.

Whereas capitalism is a system based on creating value, prosperity, benefit, through mutual, voluntary transactions, fascism is the opposite - a system that believes only in extraction, using force, domination, and deception, to take from others.

Many people think that - perhaps because fascists are always insidiously at work to turn capitalism into fascism. They even try to make us THINK that fascism and oligarchy is capitalism. Did you know that Adam Smith was a moralist? What passes for capitalism today he would have found offensive.

I still wonder why the citizens in the US still hope for an honest election in November? How many signs do they need to get to realise that they are already living under a fascist regime? I sincerely hope they find the unity, strength and wisdom to free themselves.

I think it’s a bit hysterical to compare the United States looting the resources of other countries to Nazi Germany, when that is just what this country has always done. It’s the most American thing we could do, if we’re being honest.

To the Americans, if you ever thought, “if I was in nazi Germany in 1936 I would have done something!” Well, this is your chance

He really thinks this will change oil prices. 🤦🏼‍♂️ He still doesn't get the principle of being an open economy and prices being determined worldwide, not in the US. And for the way he got the 'agreement': it's pure theft and a total illegal invasion.

Have you noticed there isn't very much backlash about Trump's oil deal? 👇🏽 Venezuelan oil is primarily classified as heavy and sour crude, which means it has a low API gravity and a high sulfur content, making it more challenging to refine compared to lighter grades of oil.
