I believe he's the first acting Archivist of the United States to be deputized to run a foreign country as a side hustle.
WELKER: Mr. Secretary, are you running Venezuela right now?

MARCO RUBIO: Yeah. People are fixating on that. Here's the bottom line -- we expect to see changes in Venezuela

And there it is.

It was never about drugs.
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.

Now Trump says "we" need Greenland.

Well done weak European leaders who tepidly criticized/welcomed Trump’s invasion of Venezuela yesterday.

You're next.

"Look, your stupid healthcare supplements were just spent invading a sovereign country without provocation and kidnapping its president to distract you from that Epstein problem. You're welcome!"

If Russia invades Germany and kidnaps Chancellor Merz, I guess the EU response will be:

"The legal assessment of the Russian intervention is complex and requires careful consideration. International law remains the guiding framework."

Unbelievable
GS: “Sen. Warner said you can’t argue drug trafficking charges demand invasion in one case while issuing a pardon in another…”🤔

@marcorubio: “Maduro was indicted.”

GS: “Hernandez was CONVICTED.”

RUBIO: “I wasn't involved in the pardon… I've got other things going on.” 🤷🏽‍♂️

Question that needs to be asked and answered: "If this was an 'arrest operation,' as in law enforcement, then how do you feel about 40 civilians being killed in the process?"
STEPHANOPOULOS: Why wasn't congressional authorization necessary?

RUBIO: It wasn't necessary because this was not an invasion. We didn't occupy a country. This was an arrest operation.

What does a hollow man look like? Marco Rubio, of course. A hollow man looks like Marco Rubio.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Trump said the US is going to 'run Venezuela.' Under what legal authority?

RUBIO: We want a better future for the people of Venezuela

STEPHANOPOULOS: I'll ask again -- what is the legal authority?

RUBIO: We have court orders

Edmundo González Urrutia won the 2024 election in Venezuela. He was the choice of the people.

The Maduro-Delcy Rodríguez ticket stole power instead.

Now Trump says he is freeing the Venezuelan people by making Rodríguez his puppet.

So no, there is *nothing* to celebrate today.

I've always maintained that Trump and Putin have a "hemispheric deal", at least in principle, where Putin gets a free hand in Europe vis-a-vis not only Ukraine but also NATO, in exchange for promising Trump an "empire" in the Americas (Canada as 51st state, Greenland, etc).
During Fiona Hill's testimony to Congress on Oct 14, 2019, she described how Trump and Putin discussed exchanging Ukraine for Venezuela. The quid pro quo was if Trump refuses to help Ukraine fight off a Russian invasion, Putin would not help Venezuela (a Russian ally) resist a US takeover.

This is the tip of the iceberg.

As detailed in 2020 bestseller Proof of Corruption, Trump used Erik Prince, Rudy Giuliani and a megadonor to launch clandestine negotiations in Venezuela that would've effectuated some version of the deal. America is being lied to every which way.

Da. Just imagine if we tried to grab Zelensky...
What a great day for Vladimir Putin! I can picture him in the Kremlin, watching the EU & the UK play dumb while Trump trashes Int. Law, their media reporting Maduro's abduction as an 'arrest'. I bet he's thinking: Should I also detain Zelensky and subject him to Russian justice?

Given our incredible track record of regime changes e.g. Iran (wtf to fubar), Iraq (Saddam to ISIS), Afghanistan (Taliban to Taliban), I’m sure Venezuelans feel pretty good about their prospects.

I remember when they were saying they were powerless to return a man they illegally sent to an El Salvador gulag because it would violate that country's national sovereignty.

If you are a foreign president who commits crimes overseas, America will come get you, arrest you, and lock you up.

But if you are a US president who commits crimes here in the United States, America will give you immunity from prosecution, reelect you, and bribe you with billions of dollars.

Rubio has confirmed (via BBC) Maduro will stand trial in the U.S.

Fucking hell, call your reps.
Chatham House expert has just declared the possibility that Maduro has likely been flown out of country to stand trial in the U.S. "in a violation of national sovereignty."

"The U.S. will morally own what the outcomes are."

Venezuela should de-escalate by trading land for peace, pledge neutrality and now choose a leader Donald approves of.

That's how it was supposed to work when we do this to our neighbors.
The US has launched an unprovoked and illegal attack on Venezuela.

This is a brazen attempt to secure control over Venezuelan natural resources.

It is an act of war that puts the lives of millions of people at risk, and should be condemned by anyone who believes in sovereignty & international law.
