Mega-billionaire and premium-grade Trump supporter, Paul Singer, has been identified as the primary beneficiary of the U.S. takeover of Venezuela.

 

His investment company recently purchased all of the oil assets of Venezuela (oil refineries, terminals, and service stations) for$5.9B, in a "distressed sale", ordered by a Delaware court, after the State-owned Venezuelan oil company defaulted on loan repayments - all due to U.S. sanctions on Venezuelan oil.

 

The Master of the Delaware court who ordered the sale of the Venezuelan oil assets, is also a major Trump supporter.

IF you want to find out what exactly is going on , follow the MONEY trail. Trumps is there to enrich himself. He didn't EXPECT to "Get in" the first time. Nev

If it was anyone else than Trump, you'd say that this was incredible. Trump orders that a person be extracted from his place of residence by the use of military force. Then the person is transported in chains from his home country to another. There the person is taken before a Court in that destination country and accused of the leader of a terrorist organisation. It looks like the person is done for.  However, for the person to be done for, the accusation must be proven. Obviously one thing to be proven is that the organisation at least exists. In a prosecution, every element of the acusation hs to be proven. Don't prove one element and the whole allegation gets thrown out.

 

In the many indictments brought agains Manduro, the alleged terrorist organisation is mentioned 32. The name of this "organisation" is Cartel del al Soles. Unfortunately for Trump, no such organisation exists. The term was created years ago by the Venexualan media to describe government officials who are corrupted by accepting drug money. It's equivalent in US slang is "on the take". It seems that, despite being a totally horrible person, Manduro will walk away a free man. If that happens, and I were him, I'd make a bee-line to a lawyer's office to commence an action against Trump, the US Government, and every individual soldier involved in his detention, abduction, false imprisonment and malicious prosecution. 

 

Take a look at this video. The stuff about the prosecution starts at time marker 3:30.

His reason for pardoning Former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández?

 

"He reminded me of myself."

What, he's an absolute c**t?

[onetrack]

Trump won't let Maduro go under any circumstances, for that to happen would be the greatest slap in the face he's ever endured. He'll appoint a "special prosecutor", a specific Trump loyalist, to carry out his bidding. This is a man who has no concern for legalities, conventions, or even Congress. He does what he likes.

 

Next, it's going to be Greenland. But that will be a totally different kettle of fish that will come back to bite him, if he moves on the country. The Danish PM, Mette Fredrickson, has stated bluntly, (If Trump annexes Greenland) "that's the end of NATO".

 

You can see what she means. It means all European bases owned and used by the U.S. military and air force will be reclaimed by their respective countries, and U.S. forces stationed at those bases, will be ejected from those countries. America could soon be running out of "friends".

Oh that we should do the same.

Trump would see that as a good outcome. He doesn't believe in alliances generally, and only has contempt for NATO.

[onetrack]

Trump and the U.S. military NEED those NATO bases to be able to operate globally. Losing them would equate to a serious kick in the nuts for Trump, and the U.S. military.

[rgmwa]

That’s true but Trump’s focus is now on the Western hemisphere and he’s pretty short sighted when it comes to strategic thinking. Hopefully his more level headed military advisors would stop him walking away completely. Even so, his instinct is to reduce his overseas forces and get the NATO countries to make up the shortfall.

Isn't that part of the plan?

 

The new world order (of bullies), divides the world into a 'western hemisphere' controlled by trump, and a 'eastern hemisphere' that pootin and xi can squabble over.

 

USA, pootin & xi all wish that all european alliances will dissolve. 

 

No EU. No NATO.

 

Much easier to get control when they can divide & conquer (economically & militarily)

[facthunter]

America Itself is deeply divided and everybody KNOWS Trump cannot be trusted. Trump sees Friends as A burden if HE doesn't CONTROL them. Dictators are easy to deal with. You KILL them OR BUY them.  Ordinary Citizens don't matter a fig. Life is CHEAP for them. Nev

Well, Chump renamed the Department of Defense (sp!) to the Department of War. He is now asking tor the Department of War budget to be increased from ISD $906bn to $1.5tn - of which tariffs will fund a lot of it apparently. His making life easy for the tech bros to make more money, so they will use their social media platforms to control the narrative in Chump's favour. He has debts he has to pay and he has debts owed to him. He may come across as stoopid, but I would say more erratically psycopathic or stabler sociopath who has a plan and is willing to do what it takes to execute it. 

 

Voters or the plebs - they are a mere inconvenince (like they are to most political leaders on both sides these days - Chump is just more open about it). He realises that most of the peope - especially in the US pay scant attention to the local and national news, let alone international news - except where the US is involved (such as a war). Unlike the democrats, who got caught up in virtue politics and ignored the majority, he knows that we are more interested in making sure our pay packet goes further more than wehether or not our neighbour is doing it tough these days - and he plays up to it. The same menatality that allowed Puytin to flouris and take more and more control. 

 

He doesn't want to be king because of some delusions of grandeur - he only wants to have absolute power - or as absolute as it can be - and primarily to enrich himself, his family and his supporters - or his creditors as I like to call them. FFS, his family crypto business is applying for a banking licence. What sitting political head of a country allows that in normal deomcratic circumstances, when that sitting head directs finanical policy?

 

The absolute majority in both houses of congress has made it a rubber stamp - more or less - of Chump. Although more true conservative republicans sided with the democrats to block appropriations last year leading to the longest government lock down. But for he republicans, didn't this have more to do with the release of the Epstein files than actual prudence? Chump and the republicans have managed to stack the Supreme Court of the US nd many other jurisdictions with Republican puppets, er judges (a flaw in the constitution if ever there was one), which means the other two organs of power are no longer a real check and balance. The mid-terms may, with any luck, address congress, but the democrats are so far uo their own arses and squabbling like chooks over the remaining scaps, that people are not looking at them as a real alternative at the moment - that can keep food on the table. 

 

And of course, the bulk of the popular press are supportive of their advertisers who, guess what, are supportive of Chump. Bezos taking over the Chicago Post is evidence of how they went from a vocal critic and check on the government to meek complicity by initially refusing to comment. 

 

This has been a long time coming. There will be moves a foot to change the constituion no doubt to allow power to be retained in all but probably official presidency. As long as people think it is the best for keeping a roof over their head, food in their guts, and fuel in their oversised compenation for phallic deficiencies, they will continue to allow it to happen. We have seen it before, and will see it again. 

 

 

Buckle up, it is going to be an interesting ride.

Very exciting, isn't it?

Just remember GON, you're a pawn in their game. Certainly won't make life better for you, and you are very, very dispensible.  

 

I have firends and ex-colleagues in the US emailing me to see what opportunities are over here.. But, they are the travelled ones. 

 

But don't take my word for it. Move their like you say you have been invited to. Find out for yourself. 

 

Just don't forget to rescind  your Aussie citizenship on the way.

Now he has pissed off old mate Vlad. Hijacked a Venezuelan oil tanker sailing under a Russian flag, on the high seas, transporting oil to Russia. Vlad is not impressed.
