Medical transports fraud is now being exposed

Fallout from the Maduro claw game has already been newscycled, so now it’s back to important matters.

Memory-holed atrocity: 5 American soldiers killed in Gaza in November 2023

We know why these deaths were covered up: they were going in for a hostage rescue attempt, and Israel shot them down. Remember, in November 2023 most of us didn’t know what Israel’s game plan was. Some of us did, but apparently not the US military. Israel was gearing up for a genocide, not a rescue. They didn’t care about the hostages, which we now know. This was a mini USS Liberty event, and we’ll probably never get the full truth surrounding this tragedy.

A big part of Israel’s war strategy banks on the inability of the world to believe that they could be capable of such depravity. In the same way that the most successful serial killers are handsome, charming men. It’s too difficult for too many people to believe that they are capable of it.

Maduro in the Oval Office?

Are we about to see the most Trump thing ever? I don’t think Trump will be able to resist the opportunity to bring Maduro himself into the Oval Office, bound and gagged like a Thanksgiving turkey, as he gloats over his victory. I’ll now be disappointed if this doesn’t happen.

Venezuela a year from now

Overnight it seems, we’re returned to 2004, with echoes of Bush-era fanfare over a “mission accomplished”, as born-again neoconservatives going full Pentacostal over Maduro being perp-walked to a jail cell. “We own the oil now”, and “we liberated the Venezuelans”, are identical talking points from the Iraq War era. How’d it all turn out for Iraq? It’s a failed state, a dumpster fire, a hell on earth. Regime change has a terrible track record, and nations that are force-fed them always turn into lands ruled by the most barbaric. If Venezuela doesn’t descend into a cartel slaughterhouse, I’ll eat my hat. Trump doesn’t have the stomach to secure the oil, nor the manpower to prevent someone far worse than Maduro taking power.

Regime change supporters thumb their noses at the warnings of a new Vietnam: “It didnt’ happen!” Yeah, the quagmire comes later. We’re about to get a front-row seat to the sunk cost fallacy on a geopolitical scale.

Did the US just confiscate all Venezuelan oil?

The fanfare from conservative influencers has now turned to “woohoo we took their oil without losing a single US soldier!” This is an ominous development. Venezuelans are not going to peacefully accept the rape of their natural resources by American oil companies.

Trump now claims that the US will run Venezuela for the time being, without informing anyone what that might entail. How many US troops would that take? What happens when Venezuelan soldiers resist?

This will turn into a disaster that the US will own. Whatever the outcome, the blame and responsibility will rest with Trump.

Suddenly everyone’s a neocon again

Kind of amazing to see so many “America First” grifters praising the Venezuela invasion and capture of Maduro. Now Venezuela will become a failed state, similar to Libya, as rival factions go to war for control of the country. The chosen US puppet will probably be assassinated within a month. The drug trade is going to flourish like never before, and Venezuelan refugees will flock to the US like never before. The country will become a human trafficking hub.

We think we’re far removed from the chaos, safe and secure within our borders. But this level of chaos always has a way of reaching us. We’ll be dealing with the blowback from this war for years, if not decades.

We can kidnap Maduro but not take out the Mexican cartels?

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.

Trump is bombing Venezuela

This is incredibly sad. We have our own problems, which is an understatement. We have immense problems at home that require our undivided attention. Trump has instigated a war with a nation, and he hasn’t even bothered selling it to the American people. Don’t we deserve at least a quantum of propaganda? Some very terrible people have the ear of the President at the moment. Situations like this spiral too easily.
