venezuela had just joined brics:

It had applied before but was facing opposition from brazil:

Is that move by venezuela what triggered the U.S. to take action? The U.S. is essentially self-sufficient in oil and considered a net exporter but the western banks control the value of the petrodollar by manipulating the amount of oil on the market, so do they want the largest oil reserves in the world to be under the control of a rival trade organization? russia and brics have been working to create an alternative to the petrodollar called the "petroyuen":

Some sources say that the ouster of Hussein and Gadaffi were due to their attempts to create alternative currencies to the dollar. Taking a deeper dive into this brings up some conflicting information but is it a coincidence that large amounts of oil often seem to be convergence points for conflict?

Trump was never so happy as when he talked about, "we will sell oil from venezuela. we are in control."
Do not adjust your set.

The renamed "War Department" turns out to be an accurate description after all.

Impressive operation. If they had asked me, I would have said you're out of your minds, that's impossible, don't even think of trying it.
Love the meltdowns among the "long-haired maggot-infested dope-smoking FM types" (Rush Limbaugh's phrase). And now MTG and her tax revolt, too. You and your $25 million net worth go first, sweetie, and let us know how that works out. A competent tax attorney would advise your fiancé to file Separately.
https://www.kunstler.com/p/badass with a photo of Trump captioned "Badass in Chief": The capture of Nicolás Maduro is driving the Lefty-left batshit crazy for a very good reason: it portends the extinction of their financial life-support, since Señor Maduro used his country as a money laundry for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and, in turn, cartel drug money, to funnel gazillions through Cuba to America’s Democratic Party and its political satellites.
... Alas, Communist Cuba is about to expire of strangulation. Cuba has depended on Señor Maduro’s oil since the Soviet Union dissolved, and now that the supply is cut off, the island nation enjoys only a few hours-a-day of electricity. Soon it will be dark there. . .
P.T. has plans for Cuba.
