They want you to lose hope.
They want you to be afraid.

Two things can be true:
Maduro is a vile despot who stole the election & has caused unimaginable harm & trauma to Venezuelans, including economic collapse & mass migration.
Trump’s invasion of Venezuela has nothing to do with helping Venezuelans & everything to do with Trump’s own power.

This exactly. Interventionism in Latin America is the entirety of the 20th century. Just look at Panama.
But Trump's illegal move goes far beyond that and signals what Putin and Xi are preparing for.

So “a million more documents” is now “roughly 5.2 million pages of Epstein files documents”
And they’re “seeking to enlist about 400 lawyers” to do doc review, which means they don’t even have the people yet to get it done
Trump & Pamela Jo are just slow-walking the shit out of violating the law.

It'd be really nice if the people in charge of MLB didn't hate MLB so fucking much
MLB's tech regulation plans give itself full control over who can do business with baseball.
And I learned an AI scouting firm — founded by the uncle of an exec in Rob Manfred’s inner circle — may win a bid.
Team sources and antitrust experts told me it creates a conflict of interest.

MLB Teams Fear League Will Pick Winners and Losers in Tech
The league is taking control of the choosing of tech partners, rather than leaving it up to teams; one firm under consideration was founded by a top MLB exec’s uncle.
