    So capturing Maduro as Trump's "Mission Accomplished"(TM) participation prize trophy wasn't enough I guess. Once the Iran conflict gets stale, the administration will need to have another distraction from the Epstein Files ready.

    This white nationalist regime of the US has unmistakable ambitions of reviving colonialism and slavery. One simple example is how rump chose to depict Canada, Venezuela and Greenland on his meme map.

    However, those horrors will be much worse this time. They're openly racist, xenophobic, sexist, homophobic and whatever other type of bigotry there is. On top of that's they are equipped with the worst form of modern technology from companies like Palantir. Scary times ahead.
