Will He Bomb The Epstein Files Next?
Just
so we’re all clear on this.
During
his slurring, halting, sociopathic statement informing the American public of
his unlawful kidnapping of the (horrible, criminal) Venezuelan president, Trump
made scant mention of the claimed reason for Maduro’s “arrest”, his so-called “narco-terrorism”
– which like “enemy combatant” from the Bush/Cheney years (Remember when we thought they were the
absolute worst?) is a made-up, bullshit term.
To
be fair, it will be difficult to claim Maduro’s cocaine trafficking as an issue
since Trump has pardoned dozens of major drug traffickers, including former Honduran
president Juan Orlando Hernández who was convicted in a U.S. federal court in
March 2024 for conspiring to import hundreds of tons of cocaine into the United
States. Trump, who had previously pardoned dozens of big-time drug traffickers,
cut Hernández loose just weeks ago.
Drill-Baby-Don did mention the word “oil” 25 times.
Want to guess what word was not mentioned at all? DEMOCRACY. Neither did Trump mention free and fair elections or human rights or the several American hostages being held in Venezuela. So I guess we should be happy that our government is no longer pretending the reason for our international regime change escapades is the spread of democracy. In this case it’s the spread of the world’s largest oil supply…from Venezuela to the United States – no matter how dirty and environmentally destructive, not to mention stupid and suicidal its extraction and processing will be. Earth last.
And
the Orange Oaf, ever craving his imagined baker’s dozen of Nobel Peace Prizes,
who literally – all the while whining about not winning his peace prizes –
bombed seven countries last year alone (Yemen, Syria, Nigeria, Somalia, Iran,
Iraq and Venezuela), has started this new year off by bombing Venezuela again. And
Trump is now threatening to ‘intervene’ in Iran and Mexico. Mr. Gimme-My-Peace-Prizes
is now claiming to have ended 8¼ wars across the globe.
The
only peace-adjacent thing Trump ever did was crying bone spurs in order to
avoid fighting for the country he has long pretended to care about.
Draft-Dodging Don said he was “not afraid of boots on the ground” in Venezuela.
Just as long as he’s not in them.
Lastly,
a large majority of Americans also favor regime change. Just not in Venezuela.
Freak
out…
I
mean, Peace Out.*
