The online US left has a plan. When pressed on this, he says something about AI and UBI.

This chap is a bit of an expert on everything, I've noticed.

Perhaps Europe could send all its armies to Greenland. Any possible complications there?

Anybody else wondering whether The Donald might have to give back his FIFA peace Prize ?

Have Starmer and particularly Sadiq Khan drawn up a security plan to prevent them being kidnapped by American troops stationed in the UK?

I can't believe I even wrote this as a serious query.

More petty drivel from the cunt in chief.

Just can't help itself, can it. But, this caught my eye;

But as a recent media report on the 79-year-old’s state of health noted, his hand has become so delicate that it started bleeding when Attorney General Pam Bondi nicked him with her ring while giving the president a high-five. The world’s most powerful man is also its most thin-skinned.

However, as far as I can tell, that's just natural ageing.

An interesting find from the Express (I kid you not). The idea of Trump accidentally causing Putin's collapse is too good to contemplate.

Panic in Russia as Trump's Venezuela raid sparks fears Russians 'will starve to death'

The Russian billionaire and oligarch Oleg Deripaska warned that US control over Venezuelan oil fields will have serious consequences for the state economy.

"If our American 'partners' reach Venezuela's oil fields (and they have already reached Guyana's), they'll control more than half of the world's oil reserves," he wrote on his Telegram channel.

"And apparently their plan is to ensure that the price of our oil doesn't rise above $50 per barrel. This means that our sacred state-capitalism will find it difficult to leave everything as it is." https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/21 ... il-economy

There are thousands of comments on the Mail website urging Trump to do exactly that.

If the rumoured $1-6 million for a pardon can be believed ... if...

Consider a world where a Bond Villain of the Nerd Reich can enlist US forces for special operations.
* Clear out he South Island so I can secure my bunker.
* Disable a competing foreign factory.
* Neutralize inconvenient foreign politicians.

Trump's goons saying they will "Run Venezuela".

An idea stolen from notorious DEI hire - Belafonte.

Hey! Matilda, Matilda, Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela
Once again now!
Matilda, Matilda, Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela
Five hundred dollars, friends, I lost:
Woman even sell me cart and horse!
Matilda, she take me money and run Venezuela

Interestingly, the far right weirdos at Unherd and Spiked have turned on Trump over this. Brendan O'Neill ain't happy and given that he seems to be an unofficial spokesman for the Israeli government, does that mean the Israelis are unhappy?

I can hear my father singing Belafonte songs now...

But I thought it was the Left who loved Maduro - at least, according to the gleeful front page of the Mail today.

It doesn't really matter, I don't really think the British public gives a shit about it regardless of how the Mail tries to spin it.

There's a far right strain which includes Le Pen and Nick Griffin that backs national liberation movements over Western imperialist interventionism. Don't know what a tedious contrarian gobshite like O'Neill's motivation is.

Given Mail Online is infested with mini-roundabout-painting fash, Murrican fash and bots, it comes as little surprise.

He's a libertarian himself.

And on BluesSky and Twitter, including Tommy Robinson who is begging the Americans to remove the UK's "Communist dictator". So much for British sovereignty.

The Great Patriot Tommy Robinson? Surely not.

Who funds that cunt and more importantly, who is protecting him?

Meanwhile, on LBC:

A few things to consider:

Venezuela is twice the size of California, and is predominantly jungle and swamp.

It has an army of approximately 100,000 troops, all of whom (plus the majority of its people) are Maduro loyalists. Plus, most of the government is still operational.

It's also home to several guerrilla groups, veterans of the Colombian civil wars, and dedicated drug smugglers.

All of the above are used to living off the land.

If boots go onto ground, this will make Vietnam look like a picnic.
