I also have been assuming that the primary purpose of this conflict is domestic
I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along
There is no national security logic that would impel the US to want to do regime change in Venezuela. It's simply not that important. I'm not even sure wag the dog is the right metaphor for what's happening here. Seems like an insane misallocation of US national security assets and attention.

Reading between the lines: is it that the FBI fucked up so badly that the murderer escaped and murdered again two days later?
What is wrong with FBI agents that they actively participate in this? You think this helps your job prospects?

What oil, what land, what assets did Venezuela steal from the US? And when? A social media post from an alternative reality.

Gallego: "This is the Iraq War 2.0 with a South American flavor. I'm hoping this doesn't happen, but I'm telling you - if you look at what they have down there, all the assets they have down there, all the actions they're taking, this is absolutely an effort to get us involved in a war in Venezuela"

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.

The Republican propaganda that Trump “inherited” a bad economy from Biden and is making it better is the exact opposite of true. The numbers don’t lie and people know what they are experiencing.
