    The best time to start building organized resistance communities in the US and Europe was ten years ago. The second best time is today.

    Fascism is coming for all of us. Apes together strong.

    Regime change in South America. We just keep falling farther and farther back in time. Someone remind me how all the previous US lead regime changes in South America went? I’m sure this time will be different. History never repeats.

      We got a really cool legally invisible forever-prison/torture-dungeon on stolen Cuban land, but that’s not technically South America.

    • annex Venezuela
    • make Venezuela your vassal
    • loot and pillage Venezuela

    Reminder: the vestiges of Blackwater now operate under the auspices of Constellis, so watch for them to get PMC contracts in Venezuela.

    They signalled their handpicked the new prez like a couple of months ago if not more? That lady Judas who was awarded some Peace Prize when Trump couldn’t and still said he should’ve gotten it, remember? This was expected, there’s not even a hint of a coverup, the empire is raping in broad daylight.

    No, he said US based oil companies will…

    From one of the many other posts about this:

    In his remarks, Trump did not clarify what it would mean for the U.S. to “run” Venezuela but said that U.S. oil companies were prepared to make major investments in the country.

    “We’re going to have our very large United States oil companies, the biggest anywhere in the world, go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure, the oil infrastructure, and start making money for the country,” he said.

      Dems won’t be winning big in the midterm elections. Please stop hanging on to this ambiguous future hope and take aggressive action starting today.

        And even if they do win big, its more ambiguous future hope. They’ve proven time and time again that they prefer things exactly the way they are currently.

    Maduro and Trump are friends

    Maduro gets to escape his country and save face instead of being assassinated or executed.

    Trump gets to manufacture a conflict so he can start martial law and become a dictator, and to distract from us learning he came inside little girls.
