In the 1700 and 1800's the British Empire controlled 1/3rd of the planet.
But 99% of Britons still lived in crippling poverty.
The Empire is never for you, all you get is death to make it larger.

People are talking about it and believe me Donald Trump would love for China to invade Taiwan, it will allow him to invade wherever he likes
We're back to the mid 20th century with a mad dictator who wants to takeover the world and doesn't care if he kills half the US to do it

Delcy Rodríguez is Venezuela's new acting President.
Please remind me when the 'progressive' USA had a female leader.
Oh no it never did.

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.

There are accounts laughing about the failure of Russian air defences in Venezuela.
I wouldn't laugh because the most obvious explanation is that Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin made a deal.

Anybody who isn't braindead can see that Donald Trump's crimes committed in Gaza the USA and on Epstein island far outweigh any that Maduro might have committed in Venezuela.

NEW: A mass propaganda event is about to engulf the US news cycle and what, if anything, survives it will be a lesson for our times.
But it’s what the rest of the world does now that’s key. When someone tells you who they are, believe them.

When Adolf Hitler invaded Austria the world did nothing, most Austrians didn't want to be German but there was nothing they could against an army 10x their size.

If the UK Government took over House Building in the UK, not only could it build 300,000 houses a year, it would also make about £30bn profit on them.
Nearly 100x what the Government gets from the Private house builders.

Susie Wiles in November: Trump would need congressional approval for military action on the ground or other land-based operations in Venezuela. “If he were to authorize any activity on land, then it’s war, and we’d need Congress.”
