I knew 2026 was going to be crazy, but I wasn’t expecting to wake up to something as batshit insane as “Trump captures Maduro and wife overnight, flies them to New York for arraignment“. Constitutional crimes notwithstanding, there is something very ominous about this. It was too easy, and the pundit/influencer class is celebrating too early. Does anyone really believe that the Venezuelans feel “liberated”? They’re not going to support a US puppet. The leader that follows Maduro will be worse than him. And there will be consequences for this. What will the global reaction be? Actions like this isolate us from the world. We’re hated because of these brute force bully tactics.
It’s fairly easy to see that this was never about drugs. If it were, why bomb Venezuela and not Mexico? Fentanyl, meth, heroin, all of it is coming from Mexico.
