I questioned DHS Secretary Mullin about Delaney Hall, and he refused to provide real answers or take accountability.
I told him what I saw firsthand inside the facility and it was shocking.
We cannot turn a blind eye to these conditions. It’s time to shut down Delaney Hall.
La presidenta @Claudiashein fue contundente:
“América no pertenece a una doctrina ni a una potencia. El continente americano pertenece a los pueblos de cada uno de los países que lo conforman”
Que quede claro: México defiende la soberanía de los países de América Latina.

The UN Security Council witnessed a rare, explosive intervention as economist Jeffrey Sachs delivered a sweeping warning on Venezuela. Speaking during an emergency session, Sachs framed the crisis as a test of international law itself, not leadership politics. He traced decades of U.S. regime-change actions, questioned the legality of force and sanctions, and warned of catastrophic consequences if UN rules collapse in a nuclear age.
Since 1947, United States foreign policy has repeatedly employed force, covert action, and political manipulation to bring about regime change in other countries. This is a matter of carefully documented historical record. In her book Covert Regime Change (2018), political scientist Lindsey O’Rourke documents 70 attempted US regime-change operations between 1947 and 1989 alone.
These practices did not end with the Cold War. Since 1989, major United States regime-change operations undertaken without authorization by the Security Council have included, among the most consequential: Iraq (2003), Libya (2011), Syria (from 2011), Honduras (2009), Ukraine (2014), and Venezuela (from 2002 onward).
The methods employed are well established and well documented. They include open warfare; covert intelligence operations; instigation of unrest; support for armed groups; manipulation of mass and social media; bribery of military and civilian officials; targeted assassinations; false-flag operations; and economic warfare aimed at collapsing civilian life.
These measures are illegal under the UN Charter, and they typically result is ongoing violence, lethal conflict, political instability, and deep suffering of the civilian population.
The case of Venezuela
The recent United States record with respect to Venezuela is clear.
In April 2002, the United States knew of and approved an attempted coup against the Venezuelan government.
In the 2010s, the United States funded civil society groups actively engaged in anti-government protests, notably in 2014. When the government cracked down on the protests, the US followed with a series of sanctions. In 2015, President Barrack Obama declared Venezuela to be “an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States.”
In 2017, at a dinner with Latin American leaders on the margins of the UN General Assembly, President Trump openly discussed the option of the US invading Venezuela to overthrow the government.
During 2017 to 2020, the US imposed sweeping sanctions on the state oil company. Oil production fell by 75 percent from 2016 to 2020, and real GDP per capita (PPP) declined by 62 percent.
The UN General Assembly has repeatedly voted overwhelmingly against such unilateral coercive measures. Under international law, only the Security Council has the authority to impose such sanctions.
On 23 January 2019, the United States unilaterally recognized Juan Guaidó as “interim president” of Venezuela and on 28 January 2019 froze approximately $7 billion of Venezuelan sovereign assets held abroad and gave Guaidó authority over certain assets.
These actions form part of a continuous United States regime-change effort spanning more than two decades.
Recent United States global escalation
In the past year, the United States has carried out bombing operations in seven countries, none of which were authorized by the Security Council and none of which were undertaken in lawful self-defense under the Charter. The targeted countries include Iran, Iraq, Nigeria, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, and now Venezuela.
In the past month, President Trump has issued direct threats against at least six UN member states, including Colombia, Denmark, Iran, Mexico, Nigeria and of course Venezuela. These threats are summarized in Annex I to this statement.
What is at stake today
Members of the Council are not called upon to judge Nicolás Maduro.
They are not called upon to assess whether the recent United States attack and ongoing naval quarantine of Venezuela result in freedom or in subjugation.
Members of the Council are called upon to defend international law, and specifically the United Nations Charter.
The realist school of international relations, articulated most brilliantly by John Mearsheimer, accurately describes the condition of international anarchy as “the tragedy of great power politics.” Realism is therefore a description of geopolitics, not a solution for peace. Its own conclusion is that international anarchy leads to tragedy.
In the aftermath of World War I, the League of Nations was created to end the tragedy through the application of international law. Yet the world’s leading nations failed to defend international law in the 1930s, leading to renewed global war.
The United Nations emerged from that catastrophe as humanity’s second great effort to place international law above anarchy. In the words of the Charter, the UN was created “to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war, which twice in our lifetime has brought untold sorrow to mankind.”
Given that we are in the nuclear age, failure cannot be repeated. Humanity would perish. There would be no third chance.
Measures required of the Security Council
To fulfill its responsibilities under the Charter, the Security Council should immediately affirm the following actions:
The United States shall immediately cease and desist from all explicit and implicit threats or use of force against Venezuela.
The United States shall terminate its naval quarantine and all related coercive military measures undertaken in the absence of authorization by the Security Council.
The United States shall immediately withdraw its military forces from within and along the perimeter of Venezuela, including intelligence, naval, air, and other forward-deployed assets positioned for coercive purposes.
Venezuela shall adhere to the UN Charter and to the human rights protected in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
The Secretary-General shall immediately appoint a Special Envoy, mandated to engage relevant Venezuelan and international stakeholders and to report back to the Security Council within fourteen days with recommendations consistent with the Charter of the United Nations, and the Security Council shall remain urgently seized of this matter.
All Member States shall refrain from unilateral threats, coercive measures, or armed actions undertaken outside the authority of the Security Council, in strict conformity with the Charter.
In Closing
Mr. President, Distinguished Members,
Peace and the survival of humanity depend on whether the United Nations Charter remains a living instrument of international law or is allowed to wither into irrelevance.
That is the choice before this Council today.
Thank you.
It’s time for street vendor reform in NYC. Tomorrow, the City Council is voting on a bill (Intro 431-B) that will do just that (and help with halal-flation). My Administration will make sure the work doesn’t stop with this bill and guarantee we process new licenses, staff our enforcement agencies, and allow street vendors—the heart of New York City—to operate with dignity.

No hay que perder la esperanza. Ecuador renacerá de sus ruinas, aunque no podemos engañarnos: el daño ha sido inmenso.
#ElChochólogo🤠| El gobierno NO golpeó la estructura criminal de los Comandos de la Frontera. No existe tal recuperación de USD 300 millones. Se trata de una nueva mentira que salpica al alto mando militar, el mismo que estaría involucrado con la minería ilegal. Hoy, 18hrs.
I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today (w/ @NYSenatorRivera), where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital.
La pobreza en México 🇲🇽 se redujo en casi 18% entre 2022 y 2024, informó el Instituto Nacional de Estadística de México (INEGI). La Presidenta progresista Claudia Sheinbaum celebró este anuncio: "Demuestra que el modelo funciona porque redujo la pobreza y además la desigualdad"
- Dijo q iba solucionar el estiaje y te dejó a oscuras.
- Dijo q iba a dar 2 millones d empleos y te despidió
- Dijo q iba a solucionar los apagones, se rifó 108 millones d PROGREN.
- Dijo q el IVA era para la seguridad, sale a la calle y mira.
- Ahora esto 👇🏼 TE SIGUE MINTIENDO
En Europa el fascismo y el nazismo fueron responsables de millones de muertes, una visión supremacista de una raza sobre otras, justificó, de manera irracional y criminal, la matanza de niños y niñas, de hombres y mujeres por tener otro color de piel o ser descendientes de culturas diversas.
La Vieja Europa, con más de 60 millones de muertos en la Segunda Guerra Mundial, aprendió dolorosamente que la ideología de Hitler y Mussolini solo traen dolor y un proceso de involución social pero, reconociendo las perversiones y superando a los monstruos, permite a las sociedades dar un salto cualitativo en el desarrollo común.
El mundo está otra vez plagado de perversiones y monstruos, solo debemos reconocerlos y superarlos y también sancionarlos. Las diferencias son importantes y deben ser reconocidas y respetadas, pero todos debemos tener un camino en común, el desarrollo de todos, especialmente de los mas débiles y frágiles.
Rechacemos y no aceptemos al fascimos y sus promotores.
