“companies with pending claims could now be among the first in line to receive a massive windfall from a new Trump-installed Venezuelan government that is willing to funnel the South American country’s cash to corporate plaintiffs.”
BREAKING: Just weeks before the military operation in Venezuela to capture Maduro, energy giant Halliburton filed an unusual lawsuit in international court claiming the Venezuelan government owed them damages for U.S. sanctions against the country.

So much this.
The US produces >13 mn barrels of oil per day. Venezuela produces <1 million bpd
There's a global oil glut i.e. lower prices. That's bad for US producers, who need higher prices to break even. Hard to imagine they're eager to make big new investments in an unstable place w/ decrepit infrastructure

Not all oil is the same either. Heavy oil vs light oil. US refineries are set up for one or the other, can’t switch between them. Plus oil market is totally global so more production = lower prices -> not as much (if any) profit at all. Someone is going to have to cut production as a result.
I think people are being kind of stupid talking about the blood for oil thing when ignoring the actual economics of oil atm means that Venezuela's oil is, in general, too expensive to be sold at a profit.

Mind blowing.
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.

It's hard to exactly describe the undaunted nature of Minnesotans to those who haven't experienced it, but I think the response to ICE's presence encapsulates it nicely - when masked thugs threaten our neighbors, Minnesotans gamely learn to identify and track ICE vehicles, memorize the IPA, and

Tbh this is also how I felt when I was ~42 weeks pregnant. I was over being pregnant but not quite convinced I was ready to be a parent. Turned out to be the greatest thing, after 1.5 years of sleep deprivation.

The largest healthcare fraud in US history, according to DOJ, was perpetrated by Rick Scott of Florida. He was fined $1.7 billion, but escaped prison thanks to his powerful GOP connections within DOJ. Scott went on to become a leader in the Florida GOP and the state's senior senator.

There has been one (1) period of sustained deflation (eg prices down for multiple years in a row) since the 1910s. That was the Great Depression. I understand why people (not Chris, he gets it) naively think prices should fall but I cannot emphasize enough how Bad that would be.
