“The Departments of State and War have negotiated a historic opportunity to secure US majority control of more than 65bn barrels of proven oil reserves in Venezuela at zero taxpayer cost,” a Pentagon spokesperson said.

That is maybe one of the dumbest sentences I have ever read.

I can’t comprehend not realizing if you actually think like this that you need to hide it from other people at least superficially.

    So how long until Venezuelans kill Americans, take a few of them hostage, and Americans start foaming at the mouth saying this unprovoked act of aggression needs to be addressed by killing as many Venezuelans as possible?

    Time is a flat circle with the stupidest empire trying to control the entire earth…

      I don’t think I’ll ever be able to fathom that the US kidnapped a country’s leader from within his own country and the world said nothing and it’s completely forgotten about. Especially when the motivation was clearly and obviously stealing oil.
