The American and Venezuelan people remain in the dark about how the Trump administration is controlling billions of dollars of Venezuelan oil revenue. Without accountability mechanisms or a clear democratic roadmap, the United States risks entrenching a corrupt successor regime.
Maduro offered all this to Trump. He gave Trump the idea and Trump just decided to take it all rather than do a trade agreement that would benefit both countries.
Yeah, I was trying to one up their tarded level by just going with general grasslands instead of Greenland. Should have added /s or something, I guess.
I’m sorry. I can’t imagine how awful and annoying this experience must be.
Point all those bootlickers who are excited about statehood towards Puerto Rico. Puerto Ricans have been consistently screwed over.
The simple truth (that I’m sure you’re already aware of, but others aren’t) is that the Republican party doesn’t want a change that will make it harder for them to win Congress (also, many of them have nothing but contempt for latinos). And the Democrat party is too timid and disorganized to push through statehood for the likes of Puerto Rico.
It’s not helped by the fact that there are many ignorant yokels in deep red states who share that same xenophobic view, and their vote has disproportionate power.
Venezuelans would never get statehood in the first place. The country will never accept venezuelans as equals, that is just the truth, nothing good would come from becoming a territory or vassal of the US.
I know two Venezuelans. Both of them left because of the Chavez/Maduro government‘s mismanagement of the economy and oppression of the opposition. Neither of them is well off or well connected, so they left the country to make a living.
When Trump started his intervention, both of them said „Trump can take the oil, I don’t care, as long the government finally changes“.
Becoming a US territory like Puerto Rico would improve the lives of most Venezuelans pretty noticeably.
8 billion of tracked oil removed from the country and we can’t even confirm if they got the 500 million funneled through Qatar as repayment.
No real help for the earthquake that struck Venezuela.
Maduro still missing with not even a sham court trial.
The mafia now run the world again and it looks like American Politics.
$100 million in gold was removed so far too.
Yeah, it sounds like they were just the easiest target to rob first that had anything worth taking.
I guess Venezuelan gold and oil was higher on the list than Red Lobster’s endless shrimp.

Don’t worry, there’s still plenty of time to take over Greenland and free their supply of delicious, endless shrimp.
/s
Lol, shrimp don’t come from green land.
It was a quote by a US republican the other day. Hence the /s.
You didnt see then? That was a real pitch from Tom Dans, Trump appointee chair of the Arctic Research Commission.
Yes, that was the joke.
Yeah same, and I think they just didnt realize how dumb our world has gotten.
Can’t blame them though. Its to much stupidity to keep up with all of it.
It is really dumb. We jumped the shark in 2016 and everything since then is a poorly scripted reality TV show.
Yeah, I was trying to one up their tarded level by just going with general grasslands instead of Greenland. Should have added /s or something, I guess.
No, no I see the vision! The problem is you are focusing on the green part.
Shrimp dont come from Greenland, at best they come from GreenWet.
So basically, just regular colonialism, but no one is going to do anything about it this time around.
If the US weakens itself enough with other wars, Venezuelans might be able to break free
Very morbid way to look at it though because it involves a lot of people needlessly dying

Don’t give the people a pass Americans are very selfish and grow up on their BS fairy tale founding and manifest destiny.
