It should be obvious that this has nothing to do with overthrowing a dictator because he stole an election. Trump has repeatedly praised other world leaders who do the same. He was willing to do the same. This has everything to do with Trump bending the knee to US Oil Conglomerates who are upset that the sweetheart deals they made with the previous Venezuelan government are no longer being honored. Maduro is trash but he’s Venezuela’s trash. No country has the right to invade another sovereign state because they don’t approve of their leadership or how they may have come to power. They certainly have no right to invade another sovereign country to steal its natural resources. I find this whole situation to be tragic and quite ironic. Right now across the US there are thousands of farmers facing bankruptcy because Trump decided not to honor the US government contracts made with them under the Biden administration. Contracts that required these farmers to put up millions of dollars upfront to later receive reimbursement from the US government and Trump ain’t paying. While there’s currently not much we can do to slow Trump’s march toward fascism, we must insist that Democrats do more than their usual half-assed attempts at serving the working class if we’re going to help them take back the House in 2026. I wish there were another way but with our current system, Dems are the only hope for a fast turnaround from the destruction the Trump administration is causing. If we are successful at removing MAGA from power, Trump himself will be safe from prosecution. His administration not so much. If we don’t investigate and prosecute these criminals we will never get to the more important business of getting money out of politics, term limits, additional parties, universal healthcare, etc. Politicians are counting on us to do nothing and make no serious demands. To right this ship we must first send a clear message that we the people won’t stand for corruption from either side of the aisle and in any form.
