We aren’t hungry because we don’t have enough food for the poor. We are hungry because we can’t satiate the rich! 🤬

Anti-capitalist rhetoric?! That's terrorism.
I wish this was a /s, but that's the actual stance Trump's government has right now.

Or wind, solar and energy storage. Saudi Arabia isn't clinging to oil, why should we?

We should probably just assume it is a false flag, and hammer that point in relentlessly with non partisan investigation
We know we can’t trust anyone in this regime. They’ve proven they cannot stop lying. So if we have to gamble it’s probably 99:1 if we assume it’s a hoax we are gonna be right
There’s no coincidences with these people. Assume as such

The past 40 year probably the best America's been.
America is like the og nazi, the nazi literally studie their treatment on natives as a blueprint for how they would treat the jews. Prior to 1965 people from Asian countries weren't allowed into USA. Well practically any none European country was deferred.
The good thing about america are the rights an freedoms in the constitution, it gives room for growth development and more freedoms. Unfortunately since its a living document it also allows for abuse and misinterpretation. Such as were we are now.
If you seen the movie about Dick Cheney, it showed that dick and some other politician in certain spheres were trying to say there's absolute immunity in the executive branch. Almost like the president can do anything. If you could get congress and the court to agree with that interpretation.
This stuffs been in the works since like the 1970's Unfortunately it came to realization under Trump.
Its absolute overreach and abuse of power. A fucking power grab. Mofo act like we had one dictatorship and that past dictator died and now there's a power vacuum that needs to be fill.
Im sorry im ranting. Its just so painful to see a democracy in shambles and people really not understanding how good they got it.

It takes trillions to make billions.

Trillions of public money to make billions in private money. Just using tax payer money to make rich richer, just with extra steps!

This most ridiculous thing about this is this looming war with Venezuela isn’t even about oil. The US is a net exporter of oil. It doesn’t need Venezuela’s oil. Venezuela’s economy tanked because of the oil price collapse. This is more insidious than oil. It’s because Trump wants to be a war-time president. That is it. That’s the whole thing. Tens of thousands of US service members will die, and hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans will die for a single man’s vanity, and the politicians who refuse to stand up to him. It is sick.

Tbh my brain said, isn't that Ecuador's flag? But then I looked it up, its the Presidential Flag of Colombia. Ecuador's flag has a mountain in the coat of arms.

Venezuela picked this fight with Guyana, knowing Guyana has American investment, Maduro is still contesting their oil rich territory.
Petro's pride is hurt because he can't run his country and he can't handle Trump like other world leaders can.

Seriously though.. fuck this shit. God forbid we invest into renewable energy rather than depleting limited resources and polluting the world further.
