Everyone seems to have forgotten but the AP actually went to Venezuela and found some of these men. They aren’t terminator-like cartel warriors, ready to give their life to ship kilos. They’re random dudes from small towns - bus drivers, fishermen - recruited for a payday. apnews.com/article/trum...
Trump has accused boat crews of being narco-terrorists. The truth, AP found, is more nuanced
One was a fisherman struggling to eke out a living on $100 a month. Another was a career criminal. A third was a former military cadet.

Gore also seemed to question whether Gates was ever really an ally in the fight against fossil fuels.

"I went back and looked to see if Gates has ever called for eliminating fossil fuel subsidies. I couldn’t find a time when he did that."

That's wild -- and I say that as someone who HAS been saying we need to phase out fossil fuels.

Who knew we were in charge this whole time?

Yes agree! One might think the opposite of the juke joint's vitality would be "conformity and oppression" e.g. the local Klan. But Coogler makes the vampire bacchanal wild, alluring, unsettling (as vampires usually are). He gives the devil his due, in a way.
