    US going to war with Venezuela to distract from Epstein and probably cancel all future federal elections was actually on my bingo card.

      Born too late to invade the Middle East for oil. Born too early to invade China for oil. Born just in time to invade Venezuela for oil…

    Here comes another “special military operation”. In mountainous terrain and jungle. Yeah, that totally would favour an invading force…

    But Trump will not know any of that. He replaced all advisors in his immediate entourage with blatant sycophants.

      Maduro is saying 4.5m reservists are waiting for 2000 marines. Chavez repelled similar attack back in the day.

      There are enough young men to complete this. Do you really think the body count matters for the American government? Remember it’s not for us, it’s all for them. We are products and the workers, we are the ones that can be written off and the ones that can be terminated at will. We literally don’t matter and for some people their life’s purpose is to slaughter for their masters gains. We are farm animals and this is our purpose for living.

      the solution for solving the issue of the human foundation is beyond war or politics. To participate in them is to be part of the cancer?

    I mean, even Bush was smart enough to come up with the whole weapons of mass destruction excuse. This fucking moron, just running on the fumes of his gullible base and the indifference of profit capitalism anything goes. A lot of society exists because of trust, and he is rapidly burning through it. I wonder when we will get real biological weapons being deployed in them.

    Anyway, regarding the short term, this is essentially foreboding what the US will eventually do in Greenland from their base.

      Hating Venezuela and war is no politician’s base, even though every moderate bipartisan hates and threatens Venezuela. All administrations have made baseless election fraud claims. Trump last time backed a fake Venezuelan President (Guaido), and last year Biden paid narco gangs to protest election results. Valid democracy only applies when CIA approves result.

      foreboding what the US will eventually do in Greenland from their base

      No one voted for war on Greenland, and unlike Venezuela, its not a political establishment thought. GOP will praise Trump for great victory that lets US subjugate Europe harder from a closer military strike position. 2028 election will not have either side of duopoly offer to reduce the colonial subjugation of vassal states, unless and until they rebel against US at least at an effective economic level.

    Yet another distraction in the endless series of distractions Trump uses while he destroys the U.S. and it’s democracy.

    Oh hey, it’s a country full of brown skinned folks who have oil and a govt that’s not already under US capital control. Who could have possibly seen this coming?

    When US reactionaries get a look at those “Patria, socialismo o muerte” signs they’re going to start foaming at the mouth

    After all the threats against Greenland, Canada, Mexico - the US are going to do the same god damn thing they ALWAYS do?

    Trump is SO boring at this point. It’s just the same dumb shit, warmed over and done worse than ever.
