The oil robbery at the expense of our troops isn't the distraction. But the timing is.

Trump is creating a New Criminal World Order by gunboat diplomacy. Smash and grab whatever country and resources you can. This is STEALING! Stealing Venezuela's oil and minerals is the biggest corporate heist in history.

New Age spiritualist Stuart Wilde said the next president after Obama would be the anti-Christ. He died of a heart attack in 2013, I wonder what he'd say about what's going on now.

Trump is an antichrist, but so are others that have sociopathic greed, service-to-self orientation and lack compassion or empathy for others. They're all busy with wars right now.

Wasn't this mentioned in project 2025?? This is also part of the Heritage Foundation's plan. You are right, the timing is the distraction, not the crime

My bigger fear and question, where is the response from China and Russia? They are the countries using and purchasing the oil from Venezuela and we haven't heard a peep. This means that either there was a backroom deal already made with them by the felon (most probable) OR its gonna get BAD QUICKLY

When he was asked if he had a problem sending in boots on the ground, he responded so nonchalantly. ‘No problem at all’. For 10 years I have feared there will be a draft. He will do it just because he can. Damn you, non-voters!

It's only a "robbery" if you can get it out of the ground. To put the infrastructure in place requires enormous sums of money. And who will pay for that? Certainly not the oil companies. The only way they can raise those kinds of funds is with higher prices.

EVERY DAY THIS WEEK, call your Reps and Senators whether Dem, Republican or Independent. Express your outrage at Trump’s imperial and illegal actions against sovereign nations. TELL THEM to convene. To hold up everything. Hold up $. 202-224-3121

And the military brass went along with it. That speaks volumes & has throughout my 7+ decades. The purposeful manipulations and peddled propaganda narratives are worn and threadbare. That SHOULD be true for the majority of ALL Americans at this juncture. Once you see it you can't UNSEE IT.

we just asserted control over the largest oil reserve in the world. say... you know who uses a lot of petroleum? the world's largest military.

I think it's about time people start to realize that NOTHING is a distraction: Trump & Co. don't care about distractions, they feel totally untouchable. They don't need distractions. Who's going to do something about whatever they feel like doing? No one. It's not distractions, it's their agenda.

they are not gonna rob any oil, there is almost none to be robbed. Investment requirements immense, will take decades and riddled with huge in country risks. Last, two important geostrategic factors, world is awash with oil, it does not need more supply + oil prices too low (about 60)

The oil thing doesn't even make sense because US oil companies have leases in the US they aren't drilling because it isn't profitable at current crude prices. And Venezuela's heavy crude isn't just sitting there to be taken. Their infrastructure is garbage and will require major investment.

Exactly! They just moved the time table. Epstein & ACA going bad =Venezuela Next is ICE and economy somehow getting worse = Mexico Midterm losses if the voting machines are not messed with & possible consequences for their actions = Greenland Can't get me, it's unpatriotic. BS. Watch. BS

Hell of a way to distract….sadly, he’s only getting started. The question is…how far until Congress stops this insanity?

All for deflection, war powers act, extraditions, Putin & Biden bounty$ Maduro will buy multi million $T meme coin Pardon Gold Card Pervert Prez wil grift & loot then run away in 2.5 yrs leaving Dems to clean up his mess Its what Republicans do Bush left Obama Iraq 45 screwed Joe Then blame Dems

At this point he's probably too brain fried to be making these decisions himself. Remember the Signal chat where they were uncertain what to do until Miller said DJT told him to go ahead? He and Vought are making all the decisions now, IMO. DJT is just wheeled out once in a while as the mouthpiece.

Watching the UN Security Council meeting on Venezuela and the reality that countries like Columbia, Russia etc... are calling out the US as the villain! We are but hearing it in this type of meeting is just shocking to the core!!

there is history, pick you favorite AI engine & ask these 2 questions, "Was Iraq war profitable for USA?", "Did Iraq war put USA into more debt?". Let me put it this way, it was lucrative for several companies & individuals but not America as a whole, it put the country into further debt.

Jack’s testimony is the most meaningful shit that I have seen politically regarding our domestic situation. Jack proved that we are not a nation of laws. You can sit as the president while being incredibly accused of attempting to overthrow the government. It’s all bullshit.

Someone tell Jacqueline Antonovich. bsky.app/profile/axed...

Ah, yes. Barb McQuade, famous "conspiracy theorist" 🙄 What's unreasonable about the idea that yes, Trump would have done this (Venezuela) even if the Epstein files didn't exist, but the choice of specific date seems noteworthy? What's conspiracy-theory-ish about an act having more than 1 purpose?

Shouldn’t Dems announce any oil company CEOs who aid/abet/conspired (before or after the fact) to move this action forward will eventually face criminal charges? Dems will not allow a cent of taxpayer $ to pay for their “security?” Formulate a strategic plan and communicate it now.

It's not like we are going to forget the Epstein files and the pedophile protection. Venezuela is just more bad shit on top of the pedophilia thing. Pedophiles stealing oil! The pedophiles are coming! The pedophiles are coming! Impeach and Remove!

This regime has really used the fast news cycle to their advantage. But I feel like in this it’ll also hurt them, bc Venezuela will drop from conversations as cost of living, healthcare, and the Epstein files continue to circle around again.

Contact Representatives & tell them to #impeach this demented fool playing King of the World in a blanket fort with pretend soldiers or they'll get their asses voted out. Donate time and money to #ActBlue and #Indivisible to run better candidates. They're working on the Primaries. Please help them!

He's known he's dying at least since he started talking about getting into heaven. There have been multiple elections since he was sworn in that were won by Democrats. His narcissistic supply is dwindling and he's panicking and trying to drum up more.

People my gas is so cheap. This is so great. Donald Trump is doing exactly what he said he would do. No oil being under $60 a barrel is a very bad bad thing. But when you have two brain cells, they just fight each other.(gas is always cheap cheaper in the winter)

Your right, we're past distractions. At this point we all know hes guilty just to what extent. Everything happening now is forcing as much illegal stuff into this last bit of administration until someone stops it. Problem is there's so much corruption going on in Congress they won't stop it

The point is not Maduro. The point is Trump lied that this was about drugs and law enforcement. Maybe he had a right to do that but probably not. It is actually about regime change and oil and he definitely does not have the right to do that. These are crimes and Trump must be removed.

I think the oil is incidental. No American oil companies are rushing to invest in Venezuela. The larger point is to demonstrate commitment to a new world order in which the USA is aligned with Russia and China against Europe and Americans, and international law is not binding.

He's not going to make it to 2028. Given his deteriorating health he may not make it til summer. Miller & Vought might be trying to build up something that will keep Vance in office despite the cult crumbling after DJT croaks.

Except with the Trump firehose of atrocity, every single atrocity happens to distract from every other atrocity. It's days, sometimes just hours, before the next scandal rises to the surface.

From the military perspective it isn't expense. It's gain. They don't pay for expended ordnance. They do get credit for service, command under fire, and chances at heroism that don't involve serious risk (as compared to a protracted shooting war with a competent enemy.) The military is in favor.

Not much that we don't already know, I'd guess. Nothing earth-shattering that'll make a huge difference, anyway. The law that was passed that he's now ignoring was probably always going to be pointless. Just a waste of time when Congress should have been debating his impeachment and removal.

We don't even need the oil. We're past fossil fuels. It's a dying industry. It's about exerting power over an entire hemisphere, a maniacal grandiosity seeing an opportunity to evade censure for other crimes.

The “war” with Venezuela hasn’t even started yet. We stole the top guy, the rest of the government is still functioning. They will not agree to a wholesale takeover of their oil, which means the troops will come in phase 2, when we have to protect the oil company “assets”, in a guerrilla war.

Why would delta teams who ourCIA assets be involved now with all the heat trumps illegal orders going on he is not going to remember it tomorrow we got a democracy to defend here and the senate democrats have zipped up lips like no balls. Lil John maggot .

At the expense of your troops? Your troops are thieves and they are just fine - maybe throw them a parade to praise them for bombing sleeping children! JFC You Muricans are an arrogant cruel bunch!

At the expense of our troops... and at least 40 lives and hundreds of injured Venezuelan's who were minding their own business in their autonomous nation; all because the fucker in the People's house want's to steal from them.

I absolutely agree!! The report to justify the Dept of Injustice's redactions was due on 1/3. #EPSTEINFILES #EPSTEINFILES #EPSTEINFILES #EPSTEINFILES #EPSTEINFILES #EPSTEINFILES Release all of the files NOW 😡😡😡

I firmly believe the plan is to create such chaos at frequent enough intervals that the American people are perpetually distracted until such a point as they won’t even fully realize that full-blown fascism has been successfully implemented.

Yup! What is happening is reminiscent of last year “shock & awe” with immigration, etc.. Now HE’s suggesting Greenland is next…after that, given this is money, resource driven, Nigeria has the second largest oil reserves in the world AFTER Venezuela…no doubt that will be a target also!

No. China and Russia won’t agree to that. They are fine with him going into Venezuela because it’s about taking Venezuela’s oil—not Democracy. Russia wants Ukraine and China wants Nigeria’s oil and Taiwan.

Beyond oil. Repug Party is testing USMil [to gauge/determine whether USMil will comply w/ unConstitutional acts (i.e, follow unlawful orders)]. If USMil will violate Constitutional Oath OUTSIDE USA, will it violate Constitutional Oath INSIDE USA & stop 2026 Midterm Election?
