Avid reader, lib ALL my life, angry I fought for my freedoms in the 60's-70's...& here we are again.
Maybe Redpublikkkan Gov candidate Lisa Demuth, who was MN House leader, should be asked why SHE didn't do anything about the fraud in MN all her years!
She/They are equally culpable. They said/did nothing.

This is what makes me uneasy about the future of our country. The fear that he may he right.

The wealthy are always so GD worried some poor people are gonna commit some small time fraud. Meanwhile, big corporations are committing HUGE afraid. Just look at defense contractors.

Why? Because we have all been taught to see the wealthy as virtuous and to see the poor as lazy and unworthy.

Well congrats, Bari.
I watched 60 Min, expecting NOTHING edgy, controversial or exciting....& that's exactly what I got. Tramp is no doubt smiling & not throwing ketchup. You achieved your corp goals, but you've neutered a show. You got 1 more chance, if it's the same, it's just not worth watching.

Every day Tramp (along with Rubio) slowly makes his plan clear.
Read up on Putin's plan for world order. Instead of NATO, it's 'Sphere of Influence'. Russia/Putin will "rule" Europe & Eurasia. US/Tramp will rule North America (thus talk of Greenland, Cuba, Columbia). We ARE aligned with Putin now.

Tramp has bought into Putin's philosophy of 'Sphere of Influence' 100%.
So it starts.
To my new political party: He is a dangerous, dictatorial madman who must be stopped, and my former political party will do nothing to stop him. Democrats, you must realize these are unprecedented times that call for unprecedented actions. He must be stopped. Meet this moment.👇

RUBIO: Maduro was indicted. Nobody ever did anything about it.

STEPHANOPOULOS: Hernandez was convicted by a jury

RUBIO: The pardon authority is something I'm not involved in

STEPHANOPOULOS: Do you support it?

RUBIO: I wasn't involved in those deliberations. I haven't looked at the case file.

Friendly reminder: Americans don't like war and Trump's base is particularly isolationist and already highly piqued at him for not paying enough attention to domestic matters. A recent CBS News poll shows 70% of those polled oppose the U.S. taking military action against Venezuela.

And no, I do not care WHO a politician is.

If they cannot meet this moment, they have to go. Period. This is nonnegotiable, for every single politician [and it was them, not the voters, that put us here].

If not? Y'all don't HAVE a 2027 ahead of you. Not one you recognize.

Does Anyone Remember when
Trump said
America shouldn't be policing the World when He wanted nothing to do with Ukraine and European problems.

#USA is not at war with #Venezuela unless and until it is authorized by an act of Congress.

Until then, it is an unconstitutional action of 47 involving the DoD in an illegal move in Venezuela.

The people of USA have not authorized a war. Far from it.

Remember, folks.

in 2019 Putin offered Trump a swap: Russia cedes Venezuela and gets Ukraine.

Read about Putin's philosophy "Sphere of Influence".
He & Tramp have killed NATO which has kept world wars at bay for nearly 200 yrs.
We've taken a GIANT step backwards.
Putin got a 1000 return on his investment in Trump and the establishment of a “trump cult” using effective KGB active measures combined with social media…..especially Facebook. Now he is free to invade and take every nation he needs to bolster his waning power and dying economy.

The more I see from DJT, the more I see a teenager given a gun. Without any gun safety instructions. So he thinks the “Department of War” is the gun, and whatever he believes, real or not, is enough reason to pull the trigger. He is directing an attack on a Sovereign State!

We're a Russian satellite state.
The only way to kick trump out of office is to win the midterms election massively else we are doomed. Because of Trump we’re now a lawless nation! It must not continue.

Tramp said it...
Columbia & Cuba are next.

Look up Putin's philosophy of "Sphere of Influence".
We've bought in 100%.
Rubio is claiming that they did not need Congress permission because it was a law enforcement mission. The US is behaving as a global police state, extending its own arbitrary legal decisions to the whole world.

This is not a problem just for Venezuela.
January 4, 2026 at 5:35 PM
We've turned a corner in world order. We've gone back to countries invading other countries when they covet whatever that country has.
What NATO accomplished for the last nearly 100 years is done.You know what that means.
Putin is loving how we're aligning with his philosophy. "Sphere of Influence"
The US attack on Venezuela is plainly illegal; it violates the UN Charter, there was no Congressional approval, and there was clearly no immediate threat justifying action in self-defence. It will now be used as post-hoc justification for imperialist regimes around the world.
