@Charleys. Why do I have to spend 5 damn minutes trying to place order with someone that doesn’t speak any English at all? Can you not put someone at the register that speaks English? Is that too much to ask in America?
@adamscochran This is what happens when a low IQ Democrat tries to think for themselves instead of reading their scripted talking points.
One has nothing to do with the other you fucking putz. You’ve made no point in your statement and only showed how fucking dumb you really are 👏👏👏

Well, it seems like I have to spend my morning correcting these fucking liars...
Thomas, you duplicitous, grandstanding fraud...
First, the oil isn't "stolen."
It's lawfully seized Venezuelan crude from Maduro's criminal regime...tankers and cargoes violating U.S. sanctions that Congress itself authorized through multiple statutes (CAATSA, VERDAD Act, and repeated appropriations for OFAC enforcement).
The executive branch, under IEEPA powers Congress delegated, blocks, seizes, and forfeits sanctioned property.
This isn't theft; it's enforcement of law against a narco-terrorist state that starved its people and funded Hezbollah.
Calling it "stolen" makes you sound like a Maduro apologist or a useful idiot...pick one.
Since you are a fucking libertarian I'll go with both...
Second, the proceeds aren't being funneled into "Trump's personal piggy bank."
That's a venomous, baseless smear worthy of MSNBC, not a sitting Congressman.
The funds from these sales are parked in a protected Qatari account precisely to shield them from predatory creditors (ConocoPhillips, Crystallex, etc.) who hold billions in valid U.S. court judgments against Maduro's regime.
The goal: preserve the money for the Venezuelan people under a future legitimate government, not let it be siphoned off by vulture funds in U.S. courts.
This is textbook sanctions policy...neutral offshore escrow to prevent asset dissipation.
We've done variants for Iran, Russia, Afghanistan. It's strategic, not corrupt.
Third, your hysterical screech about "only Congress can appropriate money" is constitutional illiteracy wrapped in performative outrage.
These aren't U.S. taxpayer dollars drawn from the Treasury requiring annual appropriation.
They are forfeited foreign assets...proceeds of sanctioned property.
The executive has longstanding authority to manage, liquidate, and direct such funds under existing statutory frameworks without new line-item appropriation each time.
If every seized tanker sale needed a separate vote, sanctions would be toothless. Your purported "originalist" reading collapses the moment you touch reality.
You're not defending the Constitution, Thomas.
You're posturing for clicks while undermining a policy that starves a brutal regime of revenue and preserves resources for Venezuela's liberation.
This is the same spineless isolationist reflex that leaves tyrants untouched and Americans exposed.
You lecture about fiscal restraint yet clutch pearls when the executive uses delegated powers to crush a hemisphere-threatening socialist kleptocracy.
Wake up yourself, Congressman.
Your selective outrage isn't principle...it's cowardice dressed as conviction. America First demands strength against dictators, not impotent whining from the cheap seats.
The Republic endures despite quislings like you.
In other words, get your fucking head out of your fucking ass... Thomas.
@libsoftiktok@FBI@ICEgov I mean, think of all the deportation money that will be saved once there dead. These idiots think they can take on our federal agents?? Good luck. Haha
@ICuRaRook @FSOceanClub $60. The service has to be really shitty for me to tip anything less than about 20%. I’m pretty forgiving even when waiters/waitresses have a bad attitude. I try to look at what they have to deal with and determine if it’s meant towards me and my party is just a rough day.
@RubenGallego Will @RubenGallego delete this post when he realizes how wrong he was or will man up and take the up coming criticism or will he just block comments?
