The message sent to Russia and China is that the United States is a rogue nation as they are and that they are free to remove any leader of any regional country and install their own lackey to facilitate their neocolonialist agendas.
Both China and Russia have already done exactly that – may times. China has actually been successful at it more often than not. “Ho, Ho, Ho, Chi Minh, NLF is going to win” ring a bell? China uses its economic resources to silence free speech all over the world, China has used their leadership at the ICAO to cover for other autocracies.
No, Gustave, What the bad orange man did was put China and Russia on notice that we’ll follow the Monroe Doctrine and do it better than either of them can.
Tell me you don’t understand the Monroe Doctrine without telling me you don’t understand…
I speak of the Monroe Doctrine as espoused by Monroe, not reinterpreted by the weenies in the 1890s and the socialist FDR.
According to Trump this is the “Don-Roe Doctrine”.
“Gretchen Murphy, a professor at the University of Texas, described Trump’s reference to the doctrine as in line with how it had been used by his predecessors, including Roosevelt, who she said “claimed that the Monroe Doctrine could be extended to justify interventions that instead of defending Latin American nations from European intervention, policed them to make sure their governments acted in U.S. commercial and strategic interests.”
I think Trump is jumping on this familiar pattern — citing the Monroe Doctrine to legitimate interventions that undermine real democracy, and ones where various kinds of interests are served, including commercial interests, said Murphy, author of “Hemispheric Imaginings: The Monroe Doctrine and Narratives of U.S. Empire.”
Trump himself said “We want to surround ourselves with good neighbors, we want to surround ourselves with stability, and we want to surround ourselves with energy, we have tremendous energy in that country. It’s very important that we protect it. We need that for ourselves. We need that for the world.”
So, per Trump, it seems this is, and will be about the oil, rather than the government or its people.
Enjoy your Kool-Aid Colonel.
Trump just posted a picture of himself with one foot on South America and one foot on our ally Canada! Trump is a dictator and wants to divide the world between he and his dictator buddies. This action was all about oil for his billionaire oil buddies who support his dictatorship. Unfortunately certain segments of our military appear to be complicit in his power grab.
The only difference between America and 1933 Germany is we have had decades of history, movies, and books about what happens when you turn your government over to a megalomaniac. Let’s hope enough of us have learned something from it.
One foot on South America and one on Canada, eh? Sounds like strategic placement to me. If his feet are thusly placed, that means his nuts are hanging over CONUS. That gives the Trumptards a good vantage point from which to lick his nuts, their favorite pastime.
Liberals head will explode today with TDS.
And MAGA turds will continue to make excuses for why the full Epstein files are not being released.
This has nothing to do with drugs, it’s all about oil. Why pardon the Honduran president 1 month who was legitimately tried and convicted of drug trafficking if he’s so anti-drug?
I guess that $1 billion donation Trump requested from the oil industry made its way into one of his shady crypto operations.
Funny to watch all the GQP hyenas clap and cheer for him when they would have had an aneurysm had anyone else done it. Good luck with the aftermath…
God Bless America. Make Venuzuala great again (like it once was before this 2 bit dictator ran it into the ground). Oil production is down 30 percent, the infrastructure is crap. Now our oil companies can go in and return a prosperous Venuzuala to the people. Thank God they have oil as it won’t cost us to support them.
President Trump is the greatest President we’ve ever had. I just wish you TDS people would get off his back and give him some damn credit.
One of your children’s lives might be saved by him choking off the drug trade as well but OK stay angry….
Nothing he is doing will affect America’s drug problem. In fact, once a few bribes are paid this whole criminal case will go away. Trump takes positions based on how much he can profit. Which is ironic. Because it is kind of like this blog…
Imagine being in a military where another country comes in, takes out all of your anti-aircraft sites, knocks out your communication, lands on the President’s house, captures and removes him and his wife, your entire military was able to put one bullet hole in one aircraft which did little to no damage, shoot one of the invaders with a minor wound and exit the border in 3 hours. There have to be a bunch of military leaders in Venezuela standing around with their thumb up their ass this morning with no idea of what happened or how to respond. It looks like the five flyable fighters (out of a total of 48) in the country all defected this afternoon.
“Big Stick Diplomacy” and “Yankee Imperialism” are back, not that they were ever gone.
Will and FITSNews are liars who get paid to lie. Nothing they write is actually journalism. Just lies and lobbying. Complete liars. I have made this accusation multiple times. Will never responds because he knows it is true. he gets paid to promote positions. He gets paid to tell lies. If he is not lying he should sue me. But he won’t because he is a lobbyist, and a liar, nothing you read here is the truth.
Yet you’re a top fan, oh the comedy of all these comments
Yep. Because I am not going to stop reminding all of you that Will is not a journalist and this is not journalism.
Who needs to read the article, all the comedy and entertainment is in the comments. It’s truly blissful not giving a shit about others opinions
Gotta love how GovCo creates Orwellian New Speak terms like “narco-terrorist” to demonize persons, institutions, or countries they happen to have a beef with.
Their twisting of terms and meanings knows no bounds.
Kind of like how a drug dealer caught with a weapon is charged with “Possession Of A Weapon While Committing A Violent Crime” when no violences occurred or was offered. They rationalize this by saying the suspect had a weapon while possessing drugs, and therefore the potential or intent was to commit violence. What bullshit!
Another reminder that if Trump is serious about stopping drug abuse and the people profiting from it, the Sackler family is right there.
