  1. Let me guess if Maduro reacts we have a pretext for further US escalation.

    Not that it could even be Venezuelan government  related or connected.

  2. Isn’t it a funny coincidence that…
    …Venezuela has the largest oil reserves in the world
    … the US warships were dispatched one day after the meeting with Putin
    … Russia is basically the only country that offers Venezuela at least some protection
    … Trump gives Putin free rein in Ukraine
    … Putin says nothing about the threat to Venezuela from the USA

    Only a mischievous person would think ill of this.

  3. Had to show it was worth sending millions of dollars to the region

  4. What is the reasoning behind all of this Venezuela escalation?

    Or at least the best guess

  5. so a republican administration is planning on regime change in an oil filled country under the guise of some kind of criminal behavior? huh, where have we seen this play out, i feel like this plot is very familiar…

  6. If it really is a drug smuggling boat then good. As a hispanic person, I’m sick of cartels.

  7. Probably discover they have sunk a Carnival cruise ship.

  8. Trump’s looking for his Gulf of Tonkin moment. Anything to distract from Epstein.

  9. Hopefully there weren’t Epstein files sank with that weasel

  10. Finally getting to live through the plot of “Clear and Present Danger”

  11. That’s the BIG ANNOUNCEMENT? Drugs are the least of my mf problems

  12. Wait till the US has a boat sank and then we can go invade to steal their oil. Spanish American war all over again

  13. “We know it was a drug boat because there were brown people in it.”

  14. I was wondering which war he was going to start to distract his base from the Epstein files.

    Since he’s too chicken to pick a fight with Russia, I guess the natural thing to do was revert to the proud American tradition of bombing brown people back to the Stone Age.

  15. MMW Venezuela before Puerto Rico, for US statehood and invasions.

  16. Dont forget the president is a rapist and a pedophile
