Crazy — @mrglobaltoo.bsky.social pointed out oil companies won’t jump at the chance to spend $100 BILLION to rebuild Venezuela’s oil infrastructure.
Trump’s solution? WE PAY FOR IT FOR THEM. 🤔
The corruption is endless.
They are looting the treasury.

T: I met with the oil companies
Oil companies: We didn't meet
T: We're running Venezuela
Rubio: We're just enforcing the oil quarantine, not governing day-to-day
Ron Johnson: "It's all unkowable. I have no idea."
Stop pretending there is a plan. They are winging it.

58,000 Americans died in congressionally authorized deployments in a "conflict" that was never officially declared a "war" and was frequently referred to as a "police action."
You can walk to the memorial for them from the White House.

WELKER: Is the US at war with Venezuela?
MARCO RUBIO: There's not a war. I mean, we're at war against drug trafficking organizations. It's not a war against Venezuela.

In removing a graduate teaching assistant U of OK said the grade was "arbitrary."
They were very clear that the grade was due to the lack of empirical evidence to support the position that transgendered people are "demonic." That's not "arbitrary."

Both my kids struggled with math. Rather than taking calculus or advanced algebra they both took a form of "practical math" in school to help (financial literacy, basic statistics, etc.). I ran this by them and they were like, "WTF?"
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you
LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times
F: Not a 600% cut
L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now
