Reading the indictment, Maduro isn’t a good actor, if the allegations are true. However, selling Venezuelan diplomatic passports to drug dealers sounds like Venezuelan crime/ corruption that they can prosecute, not a reason for the US to invade and take over a sovereign country.

The Epstein files don’t disappear when you illegally invade another country.

All of this. Well said.

It’s frightening that the WH isn’t thinking through the long term consequences of this decision. If only some experienced foreign service experts had been consulted before this was done.
1. Maduro is not a good guy by any stretch of the imagination.
2. But capturing him through an extra-legal action that violates international law undermines any US credibility with Russia in Ukraine and China with Taiwan.
3. We have a terrible history with topping leaders without a post-war plan.

“It’s a clash John Paul II would instantly recognize: the Gospel truth versus a regime of fear. And Pope Leo has placed himself squarely on the side of the oppressed, no matter the political blowback.”
Pope Leo is quietly mounting a long-term, moral confrontation with American authoritarianism — and history suggests he knows exactly what he’s doing.

Here’s how he can defeat Trump’s dictatorship of relativism once and for all.
Pope Leo vs. the Empire of Lies: The Long Game to Defeat Trumpism
He’s already rebuked immigration crackdowns and blasted the “logic of exclusion” fueling rising nationalism. Now, as the youngest pope in 35 years, Leo is poised to help defeat Trumpism for good.

Plenty of time to plan to plan how to publicly shame and shun all these sex offenders, and the people who didn’t turn them in when they knew what they were doing.

The hepatitis b vaccine at Birth saves lives. All my kids got it.
CIDRAP’s Vaccine Integrity Project has released a major evidence review: 400+ studies/reports, 40 years of data—and the conclusion is unmistakable.

There is no evidence supporting a delay in the hepatitis B birth dose.

10/ So all this said, why does this ACIP vote matter? If they recommend against the universal birth dose, we could see:
🔹More chronic infections
🔹Lost progress toward eliminating mother-to-infant transmission
🔹Erosion in trust of routine vaccinations
🔹Threatening the supply chain
