Russian Colonel Gen Makarevich, who blew up Nova Kakhovka dam in Ukraine in 2023, has been sent to Venezuela to lead Russia’s military advisory mission there.

By blowing up the dam, he killed around 200 civilians.

As I mentioned, Russia managed to use DJT to push Maduro closer to them.

Absolutely right. And let’s be honest about the timing: every time accountability starts closing in on Trump: Epstein files, witnesses, reporting…suddenly there’s a brand-new “crisis” he manufactures to dominate the headlines. People’s lives aren’t a distraction tool.
We’re about to invade Venezuela because trump wants their oil. No other reason. The airspace has been cleared. Embassies are being evacuated. Flights are being canceled.

He’s going to kill people for oil.

It has been confirmed by journalists and AI analysis that Trump's "peace plan" was written by Russia, translated into English, and then forced on Ukraine.

Trump serves Russia. America serves Russia.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio was kept in the dark about Trump and Witkoff's 28 point "peace plan." Rubio initially spoke the truth to US Senators and then had to lie to everyone to be consistent with Trump.

The only thing that’s changed is Trump is saying the quiet part out loud because Putin needs him to. And somehow we’re all supposed to pretend this is new.

Exactly. Trump’s so-called ‘peace plan’ has never been about peace it’s been Moscow’s wishlist. Manafort, Kilimnik, backchannels, polling data, the whole rotten pipeline. It’s the same script they’re running now.
A reminder that Trump's "peace plan" for Ukraine came from Russia going back to 2016. From the Mueller Report:

President Lula and I are focused on increasing trade and deepening our strong partnership between Canada and Brazil.

We’re intensifying free trade negotiations with Mercosur — a bloc of South American nations with a GDP of over $4 trillion, and a massive new export market for Canadian businesses.

First they came for trans rights. Now they come for women’s bodily autonomy. Then they claim only Danielle Smith and elected members know the law and use the notwithstanding clause. All while overseeing the arguably the most corrupt gov’t in #ABpoli history.
This is a UCP MLA calling for a referendum on abortion inside of the legislature.

They’re coming for abortion.

“The decision to override Charter rights fails this test.”

The Anglican, Lutheran and United Churches in Alberta have written to Danielle Smith condemning her use of the notwithstanding clause to punch down on the vulnerable Albertans.
