Massie on Epstein Files: If this were a private law firm with 5% of the resources of the DOJ, this would have been done by the deadline. They just missed another deadline to report all of the politicians in their files, and they’re supposed to justify all of their redactions.
The biggest problem isn’t that they’re missing deadlines—it’s what they’re redacting. They’re trying to pretend the Privacy Act overrides a law that explicitly says you can’t withhold records to prevent embarrassment. They’re also citing FOIA standards, which don’t apply to our law. They’re trying to say they don’t have to release internal decisions, but our bill specifically says they must release internal decisions.
Let’s be clear: the Trump Admin is lying to the American people. This has never been about stopping drugs from coming to the US — it’s about grabbing Venezuela’s oil for his billionaire buddies. Trump has put American troops in harm’s way to boost oil company profits. Outrageous.
Mehdi Hasan on Venezuela: “JD Vance claimed the legal rationale was the DOJ had indicted, this was a law enforcement operation which is absurd. Can a foreign country indict Donald Trump and send in their special forces into DC to grab the president? This is madness”
Goldman: Trump promised oil executives that if they gave him $1 billion for his campaign, that he would do right by them. And they gave about 500 million. And this is a massive gift that is in violation of international law and is essentially just co-opting an entire country's natural resources for the benefit of U.S. Companies.
304 BILLION BARRELS.
That’s the real reason Venezuela matters.
Sky News just laid it out plainly: Trump’s Venezuela obsession was never really about drugs. It’s about oil, specifically heavy crude.
The U.S. now produces tons of light shale oil, but our Gulf Coast refineries were built for heavy, gloopy crude. They need it to function. And guess who has the largest proven reserves of heavy oil on Earth?
Venezuela.
Canada has some. Russia has some. But Venezuela has the most, 304 billion barrels sitting underground. That’s why tankers, sanctions, regime change talk, and now bombs.
It was never about fentanyl.
It was never about democracy.
It’s about feeding refineries, controlling supply, and locking down oil before rivals do.
The United States through the Trump administration STOLE Venezuela for Israel, so their desired WEF puppet can be installed. 🚨🚨🚨⚠️⚠️⚠️
That is the TRUTH that you won’t hear on Fox News, but that is EXACTLY what happened.
The oil is important, however secondary…But, FAR more important is the replacement of Maduro with WEF superstar Maria Corina Machado, who attended Yale and in involved with the Masonic “Grand Lodge of Venezuela”.
Interestingly, Maria happened to recently “win” the Nobel Peace Prize.
She will be Maduro’s successor, and will take orders from the WEF that explicitly benefit Israel, and proof of this is her first proclamation is to move the embassy of Venezuela to Jerusalem.
I wonder why that is…
You can say whatever you want, or make any “justification” you want, but Trump is working for the New World Order agenda and goals. The overthrow of Venezuela has been in the plans for decades at this point. It has very little to nothing to do with “drugs”, as most drugs and Fentanyl come in through MEXICO, not Venezuela.
You have been BRAINWASHED to believe otherwise by Fox News and the admin to get you on board with this hostile takeover.
Regardless of what you think about Maduro, he was ANTI-Pornography, ANTI-Abortion, ANTI-Usury, PRO-Christian and was sovereign with his country having its own bank, apart from the Rothschild central bank system.
On top of this, Maduro was very-vocally ANTI-Israel and was outspoken about what they are doing in Gaza.
That makes him ENEMY NUMBER ONE, much like Iran, North Korea, Russia etc.
To sum it up, the US, at Israel’s direction went in to FULLY OCCUPY Venezuela, until Maria takes the reins. That is why Trump said the US would be running the country.
Wouldn’t surprise me in the least if Venezuela ends up being the first fully AI powered government…
You better believe that Iran is next on the list for regime change, and I expect it to likely happen this year.
There is ALWAYS more than meets the eye with ANY US involved regime change operation, you just have to look behind the veil to see it.

“The next obvious observation is that by removing Maduro this is a clear move for control over Venezuelan oil supplies that will ensure stability for the next obvious regime change war in Iran.”
And also takes away a key source of oil from China.
If it was about drugs killing Americans, they would be bombing Mexican cartels.
A newly created Polymarket account invested over $30,000 yesterday in Maduro's exit. The US then took Maduro into custody overnight, and the trader profited $400,000 in less than 24 hours. Insider trading is not only allowed on prediction markets; it's encouraged.
