John Bolton: “What I have to say, the most stunning part about the press conference was probably saying the U.S. was going to run the country. But the second most stunning was the assault on Mrs. Machado, the leader of the Democratic forces.”

Whoa!

🚨 BREAKING: The Atlantic is reporting that Trump just threatened the VP of Venezuela.

TRUMP: “If she doesn’t do what’s right, she’s going to pay a very big price, probably bigger than Maduro.”

So if she doesn’t go along with the get-along and give the US their oil, he’s coming for her too.

Denmark’s PM, Mette Frederiksen responds to Trump:

“The US has no right to annex any of the three nations in the Danish kingdom…I would therefore strongly urge the US to stop the threats against a historically close ally…and another people who have said very clearly that they are not for sale.”

I have to say, I'm pretty much at max suspicion when it comes to most video now, which of course may be the point for the folks behind this tech.
This video, viewed millions of times on TikTok, Facebook and X, claims to show Venezuelans taking to the street to thank the US for detaining Maduro.

But the video is a combination of four AI-generated clips and was first posted on TikTok by a user who frequently shares AI videos. It's not real.

I’m thinking this morning about all the people I spoke to last year who were absolutely convinced, and tried to convince me, that Trump would be antiwar compared to Biden and Harris.

In the past week alone he has attacked Nigeria and then Venezuela and also threatened to attack Iran (again).

Here are five times Donald Trump himself admitted that illegally attacking Venezuela and toppling Nicolás Maduro was aimed at seizing the country’s massive oil reserves.

Something to watch
Speculation now swirling over who recently opened a Polymarket account, bet $32k on Maduro being out before Jan 31 before he was captured, and made $436k in a matter of hours. If they didn't have insider info, this is quite the premonition... polymarket.com/@0x31a56e9E6...

He's mad she won the Nobel Peace Prize and he didn't. That's it. That's what it's all about. Best part is she idiotically and sycophantically dedicated her prize to him and he still won't back her and prefers to publicly denigrate on a day like today.
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."

I still don’t really understand who this is supposed to be for. If you want the unabashedly pro-America news you know where to get it and are already receiving it, CBS is for people who still want regular reporting in a non-24/7 format. Do you think they won’t notice and turn it off?
