The US is charging Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro with "narco-terrorism" and conspiracy to import cocaine, among other offenses. These charges carry potential maximum sentences of life imprisonment under US law

@JamesBugman Yes, and that’s true. But before the operation the trump administration consulted with the oil industry captains, not congress, for what the outcome was to be. Afterward, Trump, Rubio and other all talked about how they would be sending in American oil companies to set up shop, not about ending the drug trade or giving the Venezuelan people democracy and freedom from tyranny. We didn’t even put in a new government head, just made sure the existing government wasn’t going to oppose the US taking the oil fields.

@JamesBugman or, as Hernandez learned, those charges carry a presidential pardon.

You’re absolutely right, none of it makes sense, and I can’t imagine how the MAGAs can justify it.
Trump cares nothing about the drugs, not really. As has been said, he’s pardoned drug dealers.
It’s not even about Maduro as a dictator— if it were Trump wouldn’t be looking to replace him with a U.S. dictator (Steven Miller). He would be working with the opposition candidate that those Venezuelans wanted—Maria Machado (winner of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize—very interesting.)
Trump claims she doesn’t "have the qualifications to lead”—pretty ironic and arrogant for him to make the claim for another country, especially with his record.
Personally, I wouldn’t be surprised if that assessment was sour grapes because Trump clearly didn’t have the “qualifications” for a Nobel Prize…🤔

@bijouxbroussard @newjaninev2 You are both correct and the only ones Demented Donnie is fooling are his own brain dead MAGAts!
His excuse for commuting Hernandez’s sentence was that “he wrote [tRUMP] a letter saying how badly he’s being treated” and, BTW, that’s the same flimsy excuse he used to pardon George Santos after barely any time in minimum security (not solitary confinement as Demented Donnie falsely claimed.
None of Demented Donnie’s nor Kegsbreath’s lies hang together on any of this—hence why their lies fall apart instantly and they constantly change their stories.
Welcome to the Demented Donnie crime syndicate!

@KunsanVeteran They lie sooo much.

Venesuela is socialist and has lots of oil. Honduras was a facist country with no oil.
I seriously expect lies, misinformation, disinformation and increased rhetoric against Canada this year. Lies about MAID (Canada'a Medical Assisted dying) killing Canadian citizens for not paying rent if propagating online. Tucker Carlson calls Canada a dark country that is more of a threat to the US than any other country.

It is all so crazy when you think about it. The US is indicting foreign nationals for crimes they did not commit while in the US and might not even be a crime in their country. I am not suggesting that these guys are good guys, but how do we have the right to be the world's police force?

@bijouxbroussard …still even a little knowledge is far more preferable to Demented Donnie’s utter and complete lack thereof…!

@KunsanVeteran this thread is too long yo make sense. I assume your question is rhetoric.

@newjaninev2 Yes, so obviously Rump is not interested in defeating the drug trade into the US.

Never admit to understanding politics. It's a bad thing, politics. American deadlines is at stake.
