Really looks like the United States is about to launch a regime change war against Venezuela with:

-No casus belli
-No authorization from Congress
-No allies or international support
-No plan for a post-Maduro Venezuela
-No preparation for any sort of stabilization or containment of the fallout

According to the US constitution the president would need congressional approval before attacking a foreign nation (Venezuela), EXCEPT when the strikes target a Foreign Terrorist Organization.
The U.S. has officially designated Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro as a member of a foreign terrorist organization

This move enables additional sanctions on the regime's assets and logistical networks.

#Venezuela “is not just some chess piece in an abstract game of geopolitics, and we are doing a disservice to humanity if we let war hawks in government and media spin it this way. We are talking about real people… countless lives are at stake.”

You felt like you were crazy in the 2000s having to explain that these people had already racked up a long list of horrendous war crimes and were very obviously choking to do more and worse, and yet here we still are.

We’re about to invade Venezuela because trump wants their oil. No other reason. The airspace has been cleared. Embassies are being evacuated. Flights are being canceled.

He’s going to kill people for oil.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.

Mark Kelly: "They're tying themselves in knots trying to explain why what they're doing with regard to these drug boats is legal. It's questionable at best. One of our biggest allies, the UK, recently stopped sharing intelligence with us in the Caribbean because they question whether this is legal."

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”

Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

Airstrikes don’t “test” a ceasefire. They break a ceasefire. Language isn’t that hard, media. Neither is professionalism and bravery.

You know it’s bleak when going back to normal is voting for Bush.

People are rightly angry about this case but it's so important to stress it is not an anomaly. Universities are full of predators that institutions protect. Most of us know who they are and warn of them, but those who can and should be acting to stop it continually fail to do so.

We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com.

We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans.
