I am a retired middle school teacher. I am old enough to remember compromise in government after the rhetoric settled down. I miss those days and hope for better from elected officials.

BRENNAN: To be clear, there is no plan for US occupation of this country of nearly 30 million people?

It’s worth revisiting this NY Post cover from January 8, 2025 (a year ago), now that Trump is invoking the name “The Donroe Doctrine” to describe his plans.

"Venezuelans at celebration parties in Miami could not believe it, insisting that Trump had misspoken. His plan appears to be for Venezuela to remain under the day-to-day rule of a senior chavista, with its democratically elected leaders excluded and its wealth controlled by American corporations."
Donald Trump wants to run Venezuela, and dominate the western hemisphere
Snatching Nicolás Maduro and attempting to take control of Venezuela and its oil is an extraordinary display of the new “Donroe doctrine”

Russian talking points? So original
Kremlin logic applied: "Venezuela was oppressing the American English speakers". Cue a six-hour Trump rant with Tucker Carlson "explaining" how Venezuela is not a real country, but a historical part of the USA.

Donald Trump is now reposting videos on Truth Social suggesting that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz had Melissa Hortman assassinated.

This is objectively evil, and calling it out should not be political.

In Mexico?
Trump just invaded a sovereign country and kidnapped its leader. Where is Congress?

I used to say how I miss the old Republican Party. Upped that to the USA
It would be so cool if the United States Congress still existed.

It all depends , see?
Q: “You said Maduro is responsible for drug trafficking. You recently pardoned the former president of Honduras convicted of drug trafficking. Can you explain?”

TRUMP: “He was persecuted very unfairly.” 🤷🏼

babe wake up, they're doing insider trading on war crimes
“What appears to be a newly created account appeared to invest $30,000 Friday in Maduro's exit. After Maduro went into custody Saturday morning, that same investor netted $436,759.61.”
Someone made $400K by predicting Maduro's capture. Here's what happened
The winnings come as the rules governing prediction markets are still evolving.

It’s a show. Someone give him a camera and let him film his own documentary. Maybe then he can be happy.

Trump says we need to go after drug cartels.

Meanwhile, he disbanded a DOJ task force that took them on.

And he pardoned a former Honduran president convicted of drug trafficking.

Trump doesn't care about drugs — he wants to be able to declare war on anyone he labels an enemy.

It's a power grab.

We definitely should, and will, blame the voters. They knew and they enjoyed racism and hatred more.
What really gets me about moments like this is we're often told we can't blame the voters. Well, yeah, we can. They knew what he was like and didn't give a fuck so long as they personally benefited.

In the middle of the night? Absolutely. His wakey time
Also do we really think Donald Trump was awake to authorize these strikes?

Making enemies???
Among the many reasons you don’t kidnap a foreign head of state at gunpoint even if you have the capability, is that it sparks consequences you can neither control nor anticipate.
