Remember, Maduro is a highly corrupt leader, a known criminal who used his high office to make billions for himself, and has manipulated elections to stay in power, has used his military against his own citizens, has protected his corrupt friends and punished his political enemies. I imagine if we ever had a President like that, other countries might consider invading us to kidnap him too.
WHAT AN AMAZING NIGHT FOR DONALD TRUMP. AFTER RECEIVING THE PRESTIGIOUS FISHER-PRICE MEDAL, DONALD JOINED THE VILLAGE PEOPLE AS THEIR NEWEST MEMBER, THE VILLAGE IDIOT.
WARNING: LONG THREAD 🧵
Dear Americans,
Your political and media class has sold you a very convenient fairy tale for decades - the tale of how your tax dollars pay to defend freeloading Europe.
While it's an emotionally satisfying narrative, it's also wrong.
THE U.S. DOES NOT SUBSIDIZE EUROPEAN DEFENCE.
You are not running a charity, you are running an empire. And empires are costly.
Your forward deployments, your bases, your carrier groups, etc. - they are the pillars of a global security architecture that mainly serves you: to protect your trade routes, your currency, your corporate supply chains, your ability to project force anywhere on the planet in hours and days, not months.
Let’s walk through this like adults, and not emotional toddlers, shall we?
WSJ with a devastating, intensely-sourced article demonstrating how Trump, Kushner, and Witkoff tried to sellout Ukraine, the U.S., and Europe for money. It's so bad one of our European allies shared evidence of the planned business deals. A must-read.

Watch this video. Then ask yourself why in less than 1 year, Trump has had 2 annual exams, taken at least 1 cognitive test (that we know of), been hiding large bruises on his hand, had an MRI for...something, exhibited facial drooping, had severely swollen ankles the size of stove pipes, and walks around aimless like a lost blind dog.
TERRORISM EXPERT HERE: You cannot designate an idea as a terrorist group.
There is no organization called ANTIFA. There is no leadership or funding path. There is no membership. Also there is no law in American to charge terrorism. Ask Luigi.
What he is doing is setting the stage to designate ANY American as a terrorist. That’s Fascism.

ICYMI: While Johannesburg residents queued with buckets for water, the director of a company awarded a R263-million water tanker tender was spotted in Paris just steps away from Deputy President Paul Mashatile.

Today, a war criminal under indictment from the ICC will be welcomed to the White House.
Trump, like Biden before him, has aided and abetted the extremist Netanyahu government as it has systematically killed and starved civilians in Gaza.
It is a shameful day in America.
@chestermissing It doesn't matter what is true and what is not. Trump claimed it was a mass burial site, and now it IS true for millions of USians. Exposing the lie will not change their trump's or elon's minds, or anything else. Sad.
Comment: An elegant group of people, largely black, from a developing country being condescended to by a big white bully spewing lies. I’m hating this with every sinew. It is supremacism of the highest order.
@YourAnonCentral I’m truly shocked by this humility. Everyone knows trump won both WW 1 and WW 2 all by himself and the only reason the US lost in Vietnam is that he had bone spurs and couldn’t go.
