A very long and important THREAD -
The real reason the US is invading Venezuela goes back to a deal Henry Kissinger made with Saudi Arabia in 1974.
And I'm going to explain why this is actually about the SURVIVAL of the US dollar itself.
Not drugs. Not terrorism. Not "democracy." 1/

Trump has reduced US economic growth from 2.8% in 2024 to about 1.5% in 2025 & staying there.
It surprises me that his damage has not been greater, but this is minor stagflation, lower growth & too high inflation - now 2.9%.
It is likely to get worse.

Economic dynamism is the victim in Trump’s second term
Few sectors will escape the negative supply shocks caused by the president’s policies

In 2014 Dutch scientists left a hamster wheel outside, to see if wild animals would use it like their domesticated counterparts.
The answer: hell yes! 734 visits from wild mice - plus rats, shrews, slugs ("running" being subjective here) & even frogs and snails.
The apparent reason: fun. Just fun.
