Reporter: Did you speak with the oil companies before the operation? Did you tip them off?
Trump: Before and after. They want to go in and they’re going to do a great job.

When Congress stays silent, it’s not being cautious. It’s abandoning its responsibility. They need to assert their authority now.

Trump is gaslighting us. This isn’t about drug trafficking. War on “Drug trafficking” is the excuse, not the reason. This is about stealing Venezuela‘s oil.

Completely agree. Always pull these threads back to the Reagan Administration and Bush I.
Once again, one of the primary reasons we have arrived at this point (completely out-of-control & unconstitutional abuse of executive power to conduct wildly illegal foreign policy) is that no one, including the most senior people involved, went to jail for the rest of their lives for Iran-Contra.

Trump openly frames military force as a commercial acquisition tool. You can’t credibly argue limited self defense, LE action, narrow authorization, or emergency necessity while simultaneously describing infrastructure takeover, profit generation, corporate involvement, and follow-on strikes.
Trump: "We're going to have our very large United States oil companies go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure and start making money for the country. And we are ready to stage a second and much larger attack if we need to do so."

This is a genius idea - if you buy a house at age 35 you only have to work until you’re 85 to pay it off….or you’ll get foreclosed when you’re forced to retire from the factory at age 80 or so.
