Trump's Venezuela Attack Is a Uniquely Dangerous Threat to the Constitutional Order

It seems like it been years since we’ve been here.

Oh, why bother. Nobody can/will do anything about it anyway.

The finding that acting U.S. Attorney Robert McGuire may not have been the sole decision-maker contradicts repeated assertions made in court by the Trump DOJ to try to avoid scrutiny into the roles of top officials, including Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.

This is clear cut perjury and anything less than throwing the book at the culprits is unacceptable.

If there’s history after us, there’ll be chapters titled “Trump Ideology Fully Explicated: Maduro Mocked His Dancing and Machado Took His Prize.”

It’s especially depressing to see so much destruction emanate from the “brain” of one of the most trivial people who ever lived.

Machado not getting the “Curveball” treatment but instead learning the immutable rule of ETTD is a small sliver of schadenfreude on this cold, quiet Monday morning.

As TMF sinks further into dementia, his insanity, recklessness and stupidity will grow without any form of restraint from his sycophants.

Never mind the violation of International law, It’s clear that there was no plan for what to do after seizing Maduro. The entire regime is still in place, its military and brown shirt enforcers still roam the streets. There is no way the US is going to “run” that country without tens of thousands of troops imposing our will.

This is the stupidest imperial move this country has ever made.

Trump’s comments last night on Air Force One suggest that no country is safe from his impulsivity, especially as his domestic political fortunes darken amid his lame duck status:

In addition to a second strike against Venezuela, Trump threatened Cuba, Mexico, Colombia, Iran, and Greenland.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC): “You just wait for Cuba.”
“We’re in charge” of Venezuela, Trump said again.
Maduro and his wife are scheduled to appear in federal court in Manhattan at noon for arraignment on a newly unsealed four-count superseding indictment alleging (1) a narco-terrorism conspiracy, (2) a cocaine importation conspiracy; (3-4) possession of and conspiracy to possess machine guns and destructive devices.
… … … … … …
How does possession of an automatic firearm while in Venezuela contravene US law? Does US law about weapons apply world wide?

Don’t forget the WH Correspondents’ dinner that gave us his candidacy in the first place.

Lots of us are doing stuff. The No Kings protests. For me, hand writing 60 GOTV postcards for the last VA/NJ elections. Preparing to write 100 more for the Mid terms. And of course voting. In. Every. Election. Lots of them coming up soon, before the mid terms. If you live in on of these districts, vote!!!

Clearly dinosaurs were also huge fans of pasta.

A wildlife photographer who was exploring a remote pocket of the Italian Alps has discovered thousands of dinosaur footprints preserved in the vertical face of a mountainside. https://news.artnet.com/art-world/dinosaur-footprints-italian-alps-2732685

Apparently Mark Kelly’s retirement pay means he is “bought” and must remain “bought” by the administration, the consequences of refusing to be bought a reduction in pay. Let this be a warning to all others who imagine themselves not owned by the administration. (He’s my senator; we sent money. Maybe others will too)

It is a little known fact that Sauropod dinosaurs preferred to walk on vertical cliff faces.

Forgive me for not knowing, but can’t the judge find the facts on his own? I guess I’m asking does this need to be prosecuted?

Trump once again trumped the MSM.

Not a word about what he is doing to we the people or Epstein.
