Either it was a limited operation merely to arrest Maduro and move on, or, it is an ongoing major regime change committment that will open up a transition including international and private sector partners. It really can't be both

Putin shows he can invade Ukraine with minimal reprisals.
Trump shows he can take over Venezuela with minimal reprisals.
It’s like they’re giving the nod to Xi Jinping to have a go?

it's darkly humorous to listen to Trump and his cronies reference the fact that Maduro was indicted in SDNY as evidence he's a dictator and overall bad guy

I don’t want an apology from Grok any more than I want an apology from a Tesla car for bursting into flames. The product itself isn’t morally or legally responsible, the manufacturer is.

I just taught my lecture course on mid-20th c US history, which starts with Harding and concludes with Nixon.
For the first time, I had to pause and stress that those scandals were actually shocking at the time and, what’s more, that Americans actually demanded people be held accountable.

All of the money that changed hands in the Teapot Dome scandal totaled less than $10 million after adjusting for inflation, and it was considered so corrupt we still teach it in high school government classes a century later.
Corruption so pungent, it wafts right off the page:
Lobbyists who do pardon deals “say their going rate is $1 million. Pardon-seekers have offered some lobbyists close to the president success fees of as much as $6 million if they can close the deal.”

Fellow Never-Trumpers, please read this, and remember it when a Trumpist associate says "I like his policies".

The reason I want to see Secretary Hegseth and Admiral Bradley charged with murder, based on what we know, isn't because I hate the US military. It's because I served in the US military and respect it, and want to see its honor restored.

Mark Kelly: "I said something that was pretty simple and non-controversial, and that was that members of the military should follow the law. In response to that, Trump said I should be executed, I should be hanged ... it says a lot more about him than it says about me. I'm not going to be silenced."

"Trump’s invasion of NC has been met w/ rapidly organized opposition & is likely to result in another political backfire in a state with a critical upcoming Senate race. Much of the resistance emanates from churches, demonstrating again how repulsed many Americans are by Trump’s war on the nation."
The lame duck dictatorship
Trump is fighting his "war within" on multiple fronts and losing them all.

I’m very liberal with a small “l”. I’m also very conservative with a small “c”. Sometimes these come into conflict, but I try to treat them both as rational impulses to be weighed, rather than ideologies to be followed.
