Motherfucker grew up in LA. There is NO rich white person in LA whose life would be anything like what it is without immigrant labor. They would literally not have food to eat.
Eyes wide open, folks. They're revealing the supervillain plot.

WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.

“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

That’s true but most of the loudest voices in Ireland opposed to that are equally opposed to “join EU defence initiatives and buy fighter jets from France/Sweden”.

Post-2025 I also reckon most European anti-NATO people and defence spending advocates are oddly united in opposition to buying US arms.
The unfortunate problem with the "join NATO and buy fighter jets from America" crowd is that this won't make them think twice. They love this shit. This is exactly what they want to sign Ireland up for

People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

Trump on María Corina Machado: "I think it'd be very tough for her to be the leader. She doesn't have the support or the respect within the country. She's a very nice woman but she doesn't have the respect."

Every time a major media organization does something evil there's always a bunch of media guys talking about how unfair it is to expect anyone to quit in protest. How they have families etc. Yes that is why quitting in protest is admirable. Because it is hard not because it is easy.

These freaks want territorial expansion and they know Trump will do everything he can to deliver.

This isn’t just a tweet from some random asshole either. This is Stephen Miller’s wife. Miller was in the room with Trump during the kidnapping of Maduro.

As the U.S. invaded Iraq, I did research on contract for The Week (newsweekly).

I was assigned to summarize the plan for the invasion. Gen. Jay Garner would command.

I spent days pouring over everything becoming more and more desperate about what I learned. It couldn't be true!

There was no plan.
trump is being asked by reporters how he plans to run venezuela and there is clearly no plan.
