Many Venezuelan-Americans were initially euphoric thinking Trump was liberating Venezuela from Maduro. Now, especially with Trump unceremoniously kicking Machado to the curb, they realize he only intended to liberate them from their assets and resources.

It’s almost like green energy is the only way forward and a handful of oil barons are doing everything in their power to keep that from happening so they can get even richer at the cost of literally everything else in the world.
Wall Street’s biggest banks made more money financing green projects than they did from working with fossil fuel companies for a fourth straight year, even as they faced ongoing pressure to pull back from the business
Banks Notch Higher Fees From Green Bonds Than Fossil Fuel Debt

The President of the United States appears to be getting regular IV infusions, the public doesn’t know anything about it, & the DC media evidently doesn’t care.
We are months into the mystery of Trump’s hands, the White House is lying, & I’ve seen a grand total of one serious news story about it.

Trump had Mike Johnson remove Turner as House Intel Chair because he was perceived as too sympathetic to Ukraine. Turner was upset at the time and called it out. But now he’s a completely broken and beaten man. bsky.app/profile/atru...
KARL: What side of Russia-Ukraine is Trump on?
GOP REP. MIKE TURNER: I, you know, clearly, ummp, Trump is on the side of peace

I’m going to need to see the declination memos from DoJ where they declined to prosecute the Epstein co-conspirators, and I’m gonna need to see them for every single person they declined to prosecute.

“It’s ok to be white” was an online slogan used by overt white supremacist groups just a few years ago. Now it’s being used on stage in front of cameras by the vice president of the United States.

Kash Patel is being driven around in specially armored BMWs that the FBI bought at his request.
Patel earlier this year pressed the FBI to purchase a new, more modern FBI jet for his use, but the proposal was abandoned over cost estimates. www.ms.now/news/kash-pa...

WELKER: Why was this photo of a desk with a drawer open containing photos of Trump taken down?
BLANCHE: You can see in that photo there are photos of women. We learned there were concerns about them.
W: Are you saying those women are victims of Epstein?

What a shameful question.
First, it is not what Congress "asked for." It is what a federal statute REQUIRES.
Second, WTF does "spirit but not intent" even mean?
CBS bent a knee and paid Trump, it has a new owner who wants to please Trump, and sadly this is the result.

BRENNAN: This isn't everything you asked for just yet, but would you acknowledge that they are complying with the spirit if not the intent of your law?
MASSIE: No. They're flouting the spirit and the letter of the law. It's very troubling the posture that they've taken.

Trump, Sept. 20, in reference to Erik Siebert, the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia: “He didn’t quit, I fired him!”
Trump’s deputy AG, three months later: Siebert wasn’t fired, he quit.
