Screaming into the void.
Invading Venezuela makes a lot more sense when you factor in that the U.S. industry, and by extension the U.S. military, is dependent on Canadian heavy crude oil.

Trump can't stab NATO allies in the back without an alternate source for heavy crude.

1. A blockade is an act of war

2. The idea that Venezuela has stolen land from the United States is so laughably stupid on its face that even some of his base is like 🤨

3. It’s always about oil.

BREAKING on MS NOW:

Jack Smith, in his opening statement to House Judiciary, says:

"Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and to prevent the lawful transfer of power."

NEW: Without USAID funding to help buy food for refugees, the World Food Program rushed to prioritize families based on need, determining that only half the population would get food.

Refugees learned which half they were in from a number stamped on the back of their ration card.

A charge of Conspiracy Against Rights comes with a 10 year sentence for everyone involved. If ICE tries to kidnap or kill someone in the process it's a capital crime with a sentence of life in prison.

This is very sharp and hits an undercovered topic:
The Constitution guarantees your right to follow, record, protest, and notify others about the agents and what you see. These are core First Amendment rights, and DHS has clearly ordered its agents to threaten and violate those rights. cato.org/blog/dhs-pol...

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American.

Two options:

1) ICE deliberately targeted him.

2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens.

Hard to say which option is scarier.

ICE pepper-sprayed this 1-year-old girl.

Once at the hospital, the doctor had to call in a poison control specialist.

They had never seen anyone that young pepper sprayed.

Another horrific story.

I’ve heard from immigration attorneys that clients say ICE guards lay out the WRAP device (essentially a full-body straitjacket) on the tarmac as a threat — “do what we say or you’re getting the WRAP on the whole flight.”

Obviously a system where the leader forces the rest of the country to elect his own party is not in any real sense democratic.

But US elites are terrified of acknowledging the enormity of what's occurring in America. So instead, bizarrely, many pretend not to see what's happening at all.

ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground.

Man repeatedly begs agents to look at his digital passport ID—they refuse.

This 37 minute episode of the Daily is the most harrowing, infuriating piece of reporting I’ve heard in a long time. Everyone needs to listen to it. A sane country would be debating only the length of the prison terms of the people who did this to these men. We just moved to the next scandal.

This is such a stunning example of how far we’ve fallen. In his first term, he said this in a private meeting, it was front-page news everywhere, he denied saying it, Republicans criticized him.

Now he repeats it in front of cheering rally crowd, nobody blinks, it’s not even reported in the news.

The fact that SCOTUS is going to tell us who's an American and who's not is THE REASON why the Democrats must stop playing around. It's time to defend immigration as a universal good and in terms of liberty and justice for all.

Accepting rightwing lies as if they're true is how we got here.

I want to say it’s a sign of at least some progress that at least some white folks are actively disrupting law enforcement. Now…for the rest you.
In South Minneapolis, Minnesota, nearly two dozen neighbors confronted and surrounded ICE goons after rapid-response alerts were issued. The goons were questioning an East African man when the situation escalated, and they eventually left the area without making any arrests.

What we are watching - as U.S. citizens are dragged out of cars and illegal war is waged in the Caribbean - is the corruption of the most sacred power we give the President - the power of violence.

We are no longer a democracy if the regime can use violence without restraint.

It might be easy to find things like this merely petty or superficial, but that would be a mistake. Demeaning, erasing or eliminating celebrations or acknowledgments of Black America is straight from Redemption playbook, and is intended to reinforce the racial hierarchy and signal its reinstatement.
