It’s the next day?
I’m not finished yet with the old one..
Good Morning!
Have your coffee before you think about this:
An opinion without 3.14…
Is just an onion 🙂
I usually go to bed early.
In the morning.
Early to bed. Early to rise. Makes a man get bags under his eyes.
coffee with pie?
Pie are round, not square.
Everybody knows that(tm).
Nice mixing words and math, WORDMAN. I’m so grateful for President Trump, his Cabinet, and Administration. They are doing magical things for America.
👍 🎯 ♥️🤍💙
Coffee with shoo fly pie is da bomb.
Pi R round
Cornbread R square
It’s a southern thing.
Brother Dave Gardner said that.
I’ve always heard pi are squared, but I’ve only seen round ones too.
Cornbread R round if prepared properly in a large, buttered cast iron skillet.
Harrumph, harrumph.
If you want REAL Southern cornbread your cast-iron skillet must be greased with bacon grease!
My mom’s cast iron skillet disagrees on your corn bread theory.
I am going to have to peel into that theory…..
The Pi went nice with my coffee. Thanks for that.
Very good one…
3.14 = pi
What percentage of today’s teachers and students could decipher that statement?
Me neither, I just might get some sleep tonight. My problem is I am looking for answers outside of myself.
Full Moon Fever

For Sundance: Canada’s already freaking out about how US control of Venezuelan oil will negatively affect the Canadian oil industry. tl;dr: The US used to buy more oil from Venezuela than Canada before the Communists took over. What happens to Canada when Venezuela oil exports return to those levels?
https://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/commentary/article-venezuela-oil-reset-maduro-canada-markets-crude-exports/
The left: reliable allies of thugs, murderers, drug cartels and thieves everywhere.
how fast can you get a banner like that made and delivered ?
TCTH is a terrific site, and as a long time Canadian supporter the pleasure I receive from the comments section is immeasurable.
To your point we up here are toast, my hunch is the “big players” are shorting our crude producers like Suncor.
Earlier today I placed a sell order on Suncor. My price is a shade below bid at close Friday.
We have been considering taking a profit for a few weeks now, as the fundamentals appear to be out of whack
We shall see Monday…fun times regardless
As a Canadian small time investor and money watcher, these are extremely perilous times for our nation.
Cheers to all.
May peace be with you, Dear Dekester and family.
May we live in interesting times. You’ve always got a spare room in Teh Idaho if you need a quick escape 😉
💕
I saw a comment “out yonder” about the billions that could have been invested in Canadian oil systems by American companies will now go instead south to Venezuela due to the circus Carney’s actions.
Thank you Dexter. Always good to see you and a Happy New Year to you and yours.
Alberta would be welcome. As for the rest… I don’t know
😢 😞
From my time in refineries dealing with a different system, fire suppression, conversations did come up of what the feed stock was and end product.
The “oil” from Venezuela and Trinidad is basically “pitch” in fact in Trinidad there is Pitch Lake where they pack it for export to be used in hot mopped roofing and thinned for patching.
There are areas where the material is constantly emerging upward, they have to scrap the roads, buildings slowly slide down hill the first trip was quite the eye opener.
As such the process of extracting as we think of it involves putting a solvent down the pipe to thin the material for extraction, plus a heat source.
The end refinery has to be designed for this, and what the end products are, not everything is gas or diesel.
The oil that was being brought into Midwest plants on trains owned by Warren Buffet was from Alberta. It had it’s own issues with being highly corrosive, the engineers missed calculated just how bad at one plant and had to do another shutdown to change materials in system. This had a major effect on the Chicago land area.
There is little doubt that there will be an impact but what and who time will tell. Had read that Nick was getting naphtha from Russia that could be interesting, Trinidad used to refine naphtha don’t know if that is still true.
Interesting times ahead.
Have a great day all.
I wonder if POTUS is using the oil as a back up should the SCOTUS rule against
his tarriffs. Well then he just uses Venezuelan oil as his leverage..
This won’t be about the US making money on Venezuelan oil. That money, for the commodity, will belong to Venezuelans.
Listen to PT again…..The oil revenues will be used in part to pay America back the damages. And I am sure those oil companies that were American that were operating down there will be getting their share after rebuilding the oil platform. So what remains will go to Venezuela.
This is a good point.
I recall hearing both Trump and Bessent saying “We have many choices”, something like this, when on this topic.
So they do seem to have some plans to keep things going if the SC does do that.
Also, we know that cheap energy is a large part of Trump’s overall need/plan to get the economy running hotter..
So there is that too.
On a sidenote: wouldn’t we think that the Supreme Court would simply want the country to do the best it can?
So if they ruled against what he’s doing, that is working so well, what does that say about all these people we’ve got that sit on the Supreme Court?
Do they think they are economists?
Do they think their viewpoints on it all matter more than the overall economic well being of the nation?
Because what Trump has done is working well, look the money coming in and prices ARE dropping, this is working well. So if the Supreme Court stops this momentum, it will be extremely telling about the court- which will bring a whole lot of attention to the Supreme Court itself because they will have clearly chosen against what we voted for that is working well, THIS will show the politization of the SC, and The Donald will want to fix this.
And I wouldn’t think they’d want this!
It’s a very frustrating situation Dek because none of it has to be this way- it really doesn’t.
To strip it all down to its essence, I feel like how the American economy runs overall works well when we compare ourselves to all else that is going on out there..
It’s not perfect, but it’s provided a decent living or a decent safety net for the large majority of the people here- and many are not even American! as we know.
And then in addition to all that, we are then forced to fund damn near the rest of the world in some way, shape or form. So in all reality, if that wasn’t going on, what we make for money here could have many more of us all far better off even. So as far as making money here, the method we use certainly brings it in.
So I look at all this that works pretty well and then I look at all the other countries and think ‘why are they working so hard to do the total opposite of what we’re demonstrating works pretty well?”
It’s like oppositional defiance- and what a head trip all their leaders are on to think they can do better at reinventing the wheel.
It’s both a head trip or stunning levels of stupidity and ignorance about how things really work.
Again, so much doesn’t need to be the way that it is..
Leaders, like in the EU and Canada are content to drag their populations through the gutter for what? to prove a point? to win a contest? to look like they know something?
All that when they could simply adopt more policy that works well here and would work find there as well.
It’s all crazy the more you think about it all.
It isn’t crazy when you know the globalist movement is highly funded. None of these globalist shills is acting because they believe their approach better for their people.
Good point.
It’s a highly lucrative economy to wreck the economy.
THIS is what it all is.
Canadian oil is used by American industry to manufacture chemicals and sell the products to Europe. Venezuelan oil is much different and probably more suited for gasoline and diesel fuel. I don’t think Canada will be effected much.
With all due respect, that’s not quite right. Grok:
Q: How is Canadian crude similar to Venezuelan, and has it been used by the US to make gasoline?
A: Canadian and Venezuelan crude oils share several key similarities, primarily in their physical and chemical properties. Both are classified as heavy crudes, characterized by low API gravity (typically below 20°), high viscosity, and elevated sulfur content (making them “sour” oils that require specialized refining to remove impurities). They are often bitumen-rich, with Venezuelan oil from the Orinoco Belt being virtually identical to Canadian oil sands bitumen from Alberta in terms of composition and extraction challenges. Geologically, the deposits in both countries are found in similar unconsolidated sandstones, with comparable reservoir parameters, fluid properties, and histories, which influence production methods like steam-assisted gravity drainage or diluent blending for transport. These traits make them direct competitors in markets requiring heavy oil feedstocks, as they demand similar upgrading and refining processes to yield products like gasoline and diesel.
Yes, Canadian crude has been extensively used by the US to produce gasoline and other refined products. In 2024, Canada supplied about 62% of total US crude oil imports (around 4 million barrels per day), much of which is heavy crude processed in refineries across regions like the Midwest, Gulf Coast, and Rocky Mountains. These imports, valued at over $103 billion that year, are refined into fuels including gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel, with US refineries configured to handle heavy Canadian grades to maximize efficiency and output. Canada accounts for roughly 25% of net US refinery crude inputs, underscoring its role in domestic fuel production.
And (at the risk of being crude) 😉
Q: Are the gasoline refineries in US Gulf states optimized for Canadian heavy crude, and will they work for Venezuelan crude?
A: US Gulf Coast refineries, particularly in Texas and Louisiana, are equipped with complex processing units like cokers and hydrotreaters that make them highly suitable for heavy, sour crude oils. These facilities have historically been optimized for heavy crudes from sources like Venezuela and Mexico, but in recent years—due to sanctions and supply shifts—they have increasingly relied on Canadian heavy crudes (such as Western Canadian Select from oil sands) as a primary feedstock. Canadian heavy crude now accounts for a significant portion of their throughput, often around 25%, and has effectively filled gaps left by reduced Venezuelan imports.
msn.com
Venezuelan crudes, such as those from the Orinoco Belt (e.g., Merey blend), are also heavy and sour, with characteristics very similar—or in some cases identical—to Canadian bitumen. This compatibility means Gulf Coast refineries can process Venezuelan crude effectively, as they were originally configured for it and have invested billions in upgrades to handle such grades. Prior to sanctions, these refineries processed 500,000–800,000 barrels per day of Venezuelan crude, yielding high-value products like diesel and asphalt. If Venezuelan supplies increase, they would directly compete with Canadian volumes but integrate seamlessly into existing operations, potentially improving feedstock economics for refiners.
You are both being pretty slick 😊
We built the Keystone pipeline to transport Canada’s oil to the United States where it’s processed into chemicals and Canada charges us a substantially lower price $45? per barrel. Oil from Venezuela must be transported by ship, loaded and unloaded and may very well be priced at the market.
Not sure what to conclude here. I have to rely on Grok and I don’t know enough to fact check it, as I work in the waste-to-energy sector, not oil. Happy to learn from your sources.
“The heavy crude oil (primarily diluted bitumen or blends like Western Canadian Select) transported via the Keystone Pipeline is refined in complex U.S. facilities, mainly in the Midwest (PADD 2) and Gulf Coast (PADD 3). These refineries are configured to handle heavy, sour crudes, yielding a product slate similar to overall U.S. averages but often with higher proportions of diesel and residuals (e.g., petroleum coke, asphalt) due to the crude’s characteristics.
Approximately 80–95% of the output from a typical barrel of crude oil goes to fuels (transportation fuels like gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel; plus heating oils and heavier fuel oils), while 5–20% consists of non-fuel products, including petrochemical feedstocks (e.g., naphtha, light gases like propane/propylene used for plastics and chemicals), lubricants, waxes, asphalt, and petroleum coke.
The exact percentage varies by refinery configuration, market demand, and seasonal blending, but fuels dominate overwhelmingly. Non-fuel outputs like asphalt and petcoke are more common with heavy crudes, but true chemicals (via feedstocks) remain a minority share.”
What happens? Well the Western productive provinces will have less reason to secede from Canada to join the US and may collapse much slower than before and provinces have less interest in US statehood.
Or… maybe it’ll be more profitable for America to sell Venezuelan oil to China if an independent Alberta’s price is right?
President Trump said China could still have access to Venezuelan crude thanks to his friendship with Xi.
Interesting times indeed.
Wasn’t it Rush Limbaugh that said Venezuelan oil was pure sludge? That the oil had to be refined many times over and it was not cost effective. Sell the oil to the Chinese.
You run out of other people’s money?
Canadian oil sold to the U.S. is already heavily discounted off the market price for oil which is $57. The price US refineries pay for Canadian oil, which is transported by pipeline directly to the US, is $41 – $44 a barrel a discount of $13 to $16.
Venezuelan oil has to loaded and unloaded via shipment by oil tankers and may not be discounted at all!
It’s rare when steak puns are well done 🙂
Now that’s prime🐮
I might have a beef with that comment!
What’s a little ribbing between friends……😁
He’s just ribbing you…
You guys are killing me keep it up
Um, getting late. Must corral the stampede of comments……headed for the barn. Night all!
Yep, time to Moove along.
Udderly ridiculous!
It’s all too chewy.
Especially in this medium.
Wordman be rolling today. Must be in a good mood. Too much winning? Nah. Can’t wait for the Dumb Dems to sue to return Maduro to Venezuela.
Steak puns? They are rare.
But well done.
Cow 3.14
Cow Pies?
Eating the milk cow because steaks are so high is udderly insane.

Good Morning Venezuela and how are ya?
70 degrees in Caracas…there was a northbound Odyssey….no club car, card games and yet someone’s keeping score….
Things are looking peachy.
I heard their native son is now enjoying a suite in NY’s finest (jail cell)…because he wouldn’t align with us.
Probably getting room service. Lots of celebrities are there?
Is he on suicide watch?
Hall Turner from HALL TURNER RADIO SHOW describe prison cell/daily routine where he been jailed in the early in the BHO years ..Maduro is now there….
Maduro won’t kill himself…the question is does he know enough for someone else to? It makes it trickier for any such people since his wife may know as much as he does…
And mothers with their babes asleep are rocking to the gentle beat and the rhythm of the road is all they feel.
President Trump acted on the direction of a multi-count federal indictment from the SDNY which was signed by a federal judge along with an arrest warrant which directed the US Marshal to take Maduro into custody and bring him before a judge in New York. That was done!
What other legal approval did Trump need?
So now Judges control our military and start wars?
Why not?
They control immigration, budget, government employment and about every other aspect of government.
Exactly! Didn’t Justice Roberts say they have Judicial Supremacy!
MNN BREAKING…
* JUDGE BOASBERG RULES KILMAR ABREGO GARCIA IS THE RIGHTFUL PRESIDENT OF VENEZUELA AND SENDS HIM TO CARACAS ABOARD AIR FISA ONE

Rest in the Vine: Venezuela Today, Arizona Tomorrow!
The indictment is dated March 2020. 😉
Setting aside the answer to your rhetorical question…”start wars” – very unlikely in my view (note there were already ‘rebels’ in the forests, especially along the border, as well as cartels).

Can’t Elon come up w/free internet for America?
Why would he?
He did in disaster areas.
True, America is a disaster area.
President Trump controlling the narrative in Venezuela to keep the cia from causing problems.
Elon wants to buy Venezuela.
There’s a lot more to the maduro takedown than meets the eye, certainly more than can possibly be gleaned from the pathetic western media, and especially those in the US.
Did President Trump just run the table?
Has anyone here heard anything about the high level meeting with the high ranking chinese envoy wherein 600 bilateral agreements were reportedly made just hours before the maduro snatch?
Or the unprecedented actions being taken by the ccp to snuff public new year’s celebrations?
Or the ccp’s prevention of migrant chinese laborers’ right to return home from the cities where they’ve been working?
I don’t normally post links to long videos, but this lady is very well informed and has a great deal of insight and timely information that is of major import, but being completely ignored by western media.
She connects the dots between venezuela, china, Iran and russia in a way that suggests to me there’s a lot more to President Trump’s recent moves than he’s talking about publicly.…a lot more.
I encourage viewing. I’ve watched three of her recent videos and gone looking for supporting information from other asian sources, which I found. So she’s got my attention.
https://www.youtube.com/watch
“PDJT instructed Rubio to brief Bejing, but they would not answer the phone.”
Amazing, isn’t it?
It had appeared there was already a super high level of ccp paranoia before this went down, so this must have put them in their bunkers. lol
Bibi met with PDJT at Mar a Lago on New Years Eve, remember?
Maybe updated him on the Maduro vulnerability with Chinese phones etc?
That thought had occurred to me. It’s scary and funny at the same time.
Additionally, it seems like big things might be unfolding between the ccp and the people there. So party paranoia is rampant.
When President Trump plays a Trump card, everybody’s hand changes.
Cuba just got isolated.
Canadian oil took a hit.
China got cut out of South America.
Iran got cut out of our hemisphere.
The cartels are in disarray.
Colombia, Brazil, and other countries were put on notice.
Election rigging around the world took a major hit.
The list of things the takedown of Maduro affects involves almost every country in the world one way or the other.
The more hatred that gets piled on—the more I love him!
😘❤️
Way to go, Mr. President! 🦁 👑
Everybody’s hand.
It’s awesome to behold.
Do they think we don’t get it? That we’re as stupid as they are?
They’re like a washed out version of the old tune One Note Samba.
Except this version has no rhythm and their only note is always flat.
Via Brave AI (we need a more comprehensive list) – Following the U.S. military action in Venezuela, anti-war protests were held in over 100 U.S. cities on January 3 and 4, 2026.
The updated list includes:
Additional protests were planned for Sunday, January 4, in cities including Detroit, Austin, Nashville, and New Orleans.
Organizing Groups Beyond the ANSWER CoalitionWhile the ANSWER Coalition was the primary organizer, other groups involved included:
Dont worry, datarepublican will serve them all up on a platter tomorrow.
Don’t you find it odd that the day is only 2 hrs old, and that AI is using past tense to describe it?
And who holds protests at 1 or 2 am?
And isn’t ANSWER a commie front?
That is a nice list that we can use…to identify the hidey holes of Antifa.
Our feds are still shockingly uninterested.
“Harriet Tubman Center for Social Justice – Participated in the Los Angeles protest, calling the raid a “brutal assault and kidnapping.””
Get her name out of your mouth, Commie Swine.
Harriet Tubman freed Runaway Slaves. She didn’t return them to their owners like you want to do.
“Never wound a snake; kill it.”–Harriet Tubman
After checking “news” sources – approximately 0.01% of the locals, all members of DSA, went on a half hour walkabout yesterday in my area. The only ones who paid them any attention were the local leftist news.
The NYC clip, those yellow with the black lettering signs, the exact same signs were seen at the Dallas TX protest on CBSDFW yt live coverage yesterday evening.
None of the footage shown so far indicates strong turn-out.
For as large as those cities are, the attendance was pitiful.
It looks like the media is trying to magnify the whole thing.
None of the news footage anywhere shows wide shots of the ‘crowds’.
Speaking of protests, wasn’t yesterday when MTG and her bunch were supposed to have tax revolt protests in each state’s capitol?
0.o
More than interesting that the paid protesters are funded by Singham –husband of Jodie Evans of Code Pink. MTG has been supportive and friendly with Code Pink.
My local news coverage was forced to admit that nobody at our local protest was “of Venezuelan descent.”
ASTROTURF
Since we are into that stuff already, can we have some facial ID on these people to see who they are and how many are the same in different situations.
Or maybe just get that information from Rent-a-Mob.
Polling data reveals a deep split within the Republican base. A December 2025 Economist/YouGov poll found that while 66% of self-identified MAGA Republicans supported blockading Venezuelan oil tankers, support for direct military action was much lower: only 44% of Republicans supported forcibly overthrowing Maduro, and 43% supported a full invasion. This suggests that while many in the base support targeted actions, there is significant skepticism about a full-scale regime change operation.
The long-term impact on the MAGA coalition remains uncertain. While the immediate reaction shows a fractured base, the lack of American casualties and the promise of controlling Venezuela’s vast oil reserves may sustain support in the short term. However, if the U.S. governance of Venezuela becomes “longer, tricker, and costlier,” as Chatham House experts warn, the rift within MAGA could widen into a full-blown crisis, potentially undermining Trump’s domestic political standing.
Oh for pity’s sake. Please.
Straighten him out, Ma….😁
It’s a hanging chad that needs to be cleaned up…
The US did not invade Venezuela.
The US did not overthow Maduro.
We just gave him a free ride to NY for his court appearance.
(Funny how those Russian air defense systems didn’t work, eh?)
Ain’t it?
And it shook up the chinese so badly they were afraid to answer the phone.
What a surprise. Another post from Chad Larson that describes a frightful divide within MAGA. Which leftist AI app did you copy that from? You guys are all the same – one trick ponies. Your particular trick is copying and pasting from the most leftist AI source you can find. 100% garbage.
JMO.
Looks like the “MAGA-splinter-trolls” are out early with their “MAGA-splinter-polls.”
The democrat / RINO’s splinter strategy of 2026 won’t work any better than the democrat / RINO’s splinter strategy of 2022 did.
The democrat / RINO’s are losers, through-and-through, year-in-year-out.
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!
Cactus, they just never learn do they? Low IQ I guess. Saying and doing the same thing in comments over and over and getting the same result. Such as us ignoring their blather trying to divide MAGA. They are “blatherskites”.
Have a wonderful and blessed Sunday.
Well, Mark Levin will be happy to hear MAGA is split.
Or, crying in his beer that someone else did it and the money is going to dry up.
At least Cassandra’s predictions came true, and she wasn’t listened to because of a curse, what’s your excuse?
🤮
Yadda yadda yadda
Blah Blah Blah
Blah, blah, blah. Please give it a rest!
“Chathan House experts” well that is the UK’s linked to our enemy Council On Foreign Relations which manages for the CIA run Fake News media. If Chatham House says it, its pro-Globalist Nazi propaganda.
Chatham House was formerly known as the Royal Institute Of International Affairs. The Round Table Groups are major enemies of not only PDJT & his Admin, and us Trump MAGA Republicans, but Heritage Brits and all other Heritage peoples around the world and especially Nazarene Christians.
So, indictment was from that veritible bastion of non currupt judges and judiciary in general, SDNY/NYC.
So, what happens when judge (“randomly” picked Edrogan?) and jury don’t convict Maduro?
I don’t know this for sure, but there are superseding indictments to the one filed by Barr in SDNY in 2020. One or more of those could be filed in FL or some other non-communist location.
Maduro looked too happy to be in NYC given the circumstance.
I am wondering what oblast he and his wife will retire in after he is done testifying.
Maduro probably was/is happy.
You know what’s interesting is that their son was also indicted but there is zero information regarding his whereabouts.
Back when the first boats were getting hit, there was a flight tracked to Kamchatka and I even mentioned it and suggested that it was probably a flight carrying Maduro out of the country.
Maybe that was the kid being extracted with crates full of valuables?
0.o
It certainly does make one wonder about that flight? Like President Trump said, “We shall see”.
One far enough east Ukrainian drones and missiles can’t hit them.
……and after he spill beans on UNIPARTY…….
He is probably thrilled to get out with his hide intact. He and his wife did not appear to attempt to flee.
I’m wondering if this was more of an extraction than an arrest.
Just my opinion.
That is an interesting take…..PT agrees to make it look like an arrest of Maduro…get him out safely……in return Maduro……….
If I’m not mistaken this will be in federal court, meaning a potentially bigger jury pool and possibility of drawing from more conservative areas of the state. And there are some when you get outside the densely urban areas.
You’re correct. But the area is mixed. The counties included in SDNY are the Bronx, Dutchess, Manhattan, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Sullivan and Westchester. Manhattan, the Bronx and Westchester are all leftist. Dutchess is purple/leans blue, and the other four are red. So four out of eight are red, three are blue, and one is a toss-up.
I’d much rather have a change of venue.
I know it’s not in the cards, but Florida would be my first choice.
And mine too. But there are superseding indictments to the one brought by Bill Barr in 2020 in SDNY, and I understand at least one is in FL. So there is hope yet.
Yeowzer.
I think the hook is set.
That old dinosaur has sat on some peculiar cases:
Barack Obama “Hope” Poster Case: Handled the copyright dispute between artist Shepard Fairey and the Associated Press, which was settled out of court after Fairey admitted to document tampering.
Harvey Weinstein Federal Lawsuit: In 2019, allowed the case to proceed to trial after dismissing 17 claims.
Michael Cohen’s Prison Release: In 2020, ordered Cohen’s release to home confinement, citing retaliation by prison officials.
Bill Hwang Trial: In 2024, sentenced Hwang to 18 years for the Archegos Capital fraud that caused billions in losses.
Charlie Javice Trial: In 2025, sentenced Javice to seven years for defrauding JPMorgan Chase of $175 million.
Alien Enemies Act Ruling: Struck down President Trump’s use of the Act to deport Venezuelans, affirming due process rights.
Hugo Carvajal Prosecution: Currently presiding over narcoterrorism charges against the former Venezuelan intelligence chief.
David Hu Ponzi Scheme: In 2022, sentenced Hu to 12 years for a $100+ million fraud.
He be landing somewhere between janky and spooky.
0.o
Hugo Carvajal plead guilty to all counts. Currently yapping away about all kinds if stuff, for what it’s worth? 🤔
He needs to recuse himself and retire.
He’ll burn through Depends like a CA wildfire if he has to sit through an actual trial.
He is a liberal Jew–read his rationale on his rulings-https://digitalcommons.tourolaw.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1679&context=lawreview. Are we supposed to ignore the pattern here?
I am pretty sure we don’t care about Maduro now that he is out of power.
He will be stuck in the New York circus courts for a few years and he will have to find a new home if he ever gets out of jail. Venezuela ‘s citizenry will rip him to shreds if he tries to return and I expect the Dominion voting machines will be gone too.
Maybe we get hold of the software for Dominion since they were developed in Venezuela and can prove how they were developed to cheat elections.
We just want the oil. There is a huge new oilfield in the country of Guyana which borders Venezuela. Our Naval fleet has been parked nearby this discovery for the last few months.
I am not certain of this theory but our control of the oil could reshape China’s attitude toward Taiwan, Russia’s attitude toward Ukraine , and the mullah’s hold on power in Iran.
So, what is happening with Venezuela now?
Are we leaving it in the Commie Narco hands? Are we installing a new government? Or at least the gal who won the election, or are we Nation building?
The gal you speak of Maria Corina Muchado, didn’t run in or win the election in Venezuela.
From Reuters: WASHINGTON, Aug 1 (Reuters) – The United States on Thursday recognized Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro’s opponent and opposition candidate Edmundo Gonzalez as the winner of Venezuela’s disputed presidential election, rejecting Maduro’s claim of victory.
Well, there is that 3rd Superceding Indictment referenced in Maduras’ Second Superceding Indictment (also referencing the 1st Indictment) which suggests past and future actions. What if Maduros were extracted having made a deal to squeal on the election interference perpetrators foreign and domestic?
Well, after he sings like a canary and is not convicted, he is free as a bird.
All he has to do after that is avoid the birdshot.
Regarding President Trump’s attack on Venezuela, the Constitution requires a President to get the prior approval of Hollywood celebrities before taking such action. Because such prior approval was not obtained, and Senior Maduro and his wife are now living in the US, they are entitled to be treated the same as any other undocumented migrants and each must be provided free housing, free food, free iphones, and $3,000 prepaid Mastercards. And if they don’t get them it’s clearly because of American institutional racism.
I believe President Trump followed the Constitution meticulously and got the prior approval of James Woods, thereby satisfying that requirement. I also believe that Maduro doesn’t qualify as an undocumented migrant, as his documentation was all in order. But as of today, he does qualify as the leading Democrat candidate for President in 2028, and so under our Constitution he is not entitled to the freebies you list. I’ll have to go back and reread Article II, however, so don’t quote me on that.
I beg to differ. Maduro does not have a visa. That’s why he gets a mastercard.
Lol
That could be one for Wordman.!
“There are some things money can’t buy. For everything else, there’s Mastercard”
Or…
American Express…don’t leave home without it!
LMAO!

I’d love to see Oldscum and Fat Boy react to being replaced by Maduro.
At least Maduro speaks the language of the new US majority.
At least his guts are not cancerous, yet!
More details…
“The United States Department of Justice (DOJ) officially unsealed criminal indictments against Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and over a dozen other officials on March 26, 2020. These charges, filed in federal courts, accused Maduro of narco-terrorism, corruption, and drug trafficking.
Key details regarding the indictment:
Charges: The indictment alleged that Maduro facilitated the trafficking of cocaine into the U.S. in partnership with Colombian guerrilla groups.
Location: The primary charges were unsealed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (SDNY), with additional, related cases in Florida and the District of Columbia.”
Some people were wondering why the Southern District of New York (SDNY)? See Hugo Carvajal. 🤔
I was going through our church visitor slips yesterday and I wrote that name Carvajal. (I’m sure no relation.). Isn’t that strange how synchronicity works.
Knowing how hot and focused the intel was for last night’s maduro operation, the proximity of the chinese delegation to the action, the current situation in iran and how zeroed in they were on the ayatolla’s hidy holes during the B-2 raids (when the president so generously gave him a pass), I’m thinking there are some folks in various high places living in a cold shaky sweat right about now. Ya reckon?
A little anecdote on good ole US made cars and trucks. I have a 1989 GMC Sierra full bed. Due to circumstances, moving from farm to help out in-laws, staying there with kids due to much family help, the truck had been sitting at the farm for about 5 years.
I went down this past week with a nephew (he got 2 deer while there), I wanted to see if I could get it started. After getting a starter and fuel pump off the shelf at O’Reilly in small south georgia town. Quicker than Amazon, the truck started nearly right away, yes, gas was rather old. We put new gas in with some enzyme treatment. I was very surprised the engine hadn’t frozen in some way. Started like it had been cranked yesterday.
I will of course change oil, transmission fluid, check other levels, etc. And checking the radiator/antifreeze, it was still full to just below the top and green without buildup. Perhaps it’s copper?
I do plan on cleaning out gas tank before major use. The prior owner had even cut a rectangular piece from the truck bed centered on the fuel pump. Then reattached the approx 1 foot piece with a few support metal braces and screws.
Cool.
It’s always great getting something old back on the road.
Two of my favorite vehicle fixing channels on yt are Vice Grip Garage (he’s from Tennessee) and Turnin Rust (Dad and son from Texas).
Those guys are always getting a classic cranked back up.
Whenever I need to work on anything I always look up the make and model on yt and find videos and sometimes when insomnia sets in I binge watch fix-it shows.
Be sure to check all your wiring to make sure the mice hadn’t chewed them all up.
Good luck.

Thanks. And kids, 4 and 7, are going to help me check, change and fill all the fluids, oil filter, air filter, etc. Take wheels off and check brakes. I won’t have them help me much (if at all) cleaning gas tank in situ.
A huge amount of working space under the hood. It even has a couple of work lights. One is on 5-6 foot wired thread to take to areas of the engine.
Lastly, transmission fluid fill and dipstick. The truck has 3 foot long dipstick and fill at top of engine. My 2018 Honda Pilot has 6 inch long dipstick about 2.5 feet deep beside the engine. I guess to save manufacture cost and maybe weight?
And no damn computers.
“The Monroe Doctrine was articulated in President James Monroe’s seventh annual message to Congress on December 2, 1823. The European powers, according to Monroe, were obligated to respect the Western Hemisphere as the United States’ sphere of interest.
President James Monroe’s 1823 annual message to Congress contained the Monroe Doctrine, which warned European powers not to interfere in the affairs of the Western Hemisphere.
Understandably, the United States has always taken a particular interest in its closest neighbors – the nations of the Western Hemisphere. Equally understandably, expressions of this concern have not always been favorably regarded by other American nations.
The Monroe Doctrine is the best known U.S. policy toward the Western Hemisphere. Buried in a routine annual message delivered to Congress by President James Monroe in December 1823, the doctrine warns European nations that the United States would not tolerate further colonization or puppet monarchs. The doctrine was conceived to meet major concerns of the moment, but it soon became a watchword of U.S. policy in the Western Hemisphere.
The Monroe Doctrine was invoked in 1865 when the U.S. government exerted diplomatic and military pressure in support of the Mexican President Benito Juárez. This support enabled Juárez to lead a successful revolt against the Emperor Maximilian, who had been placed on the throne by the French government.
Almost 40 years later, in 1904, European creditors of a number of Latin American countries threatened armed intervention to collect debts. President Theodore Roosevelt promptly proclaimed the right of the United States to exercise an “international police power” to curb such “chronic wrongdoing,” in his so-called Roosevelt Corollary (or extension) to the Monroe Doctrine.
While the Monroe Doctrine’s message was designed to keep European powers out of the Western Hemisphere, Roosevelt would strengthen its meaning to justify sending the United States into other countries of the Western Hemisphere. As a result, U.S. Marines were sent into Santo Domingo in 1904, Nicaragua in 1911, and Haiti in 1915, ostensibly to keep the Europeans out. Other Latin American nations viewed these interventions with misgiving, and relations between the “great Colossus of the North” and its southern neighbors remained strained for many years.
In 1962, the Monroe Doctrine was invoked symbolically when the Soviet Union began to build missile-launching sites in Cuba. With the support of the Organization of American States, President John F. Kennedy threw a naval and air quarantine around the island. After several tense days, the Soviet Union agreed to withdraw the missiles and dismantle the sites. Subsequently, the United States dismantled several of its obsolete air and missile bases in Turkey.”

Why Maduro dated wife for TWENTY years before marrying in secret… as shamed first lady’s incestuous party links laid bare
Venezuela’s Chavismo movement has always been infamously incestuous, but even by the standards of the United Socialist Party the favors bestowed on Flores’s relatives appear excessively nepotistic. She installed as many as 40 of her relatives across Venezuela’s public administration, according to the newspaper El Diario.
Even before her marriage she capitalized on the connections she made while serving as attorney general to Venezuela’s former dictator Hugo Chávez. Her family’s ties were so well known that they became a national running joke among the opposition, Reuters reports.
One former government researcher described her as a ‘secretive, conniving and ruthless political operative’ and ‘Maduro’s chief adviser in all political and legal matters’.

A Wisconsin judge convicted last month of obstruction for helping a migrant appearing in her courtroom evade an immigration arrest has submitted her resignation, media reported on Saturday. Hannah Dugan, an elected judge on the Milwaukee County Circuit Court, had faced potential impeachment by the Republican-controlled state legislature following her conviction, which came amid U.S. President Donald Trump’s push to discourage interference with his hard-line immigration policies.
https://nitter.poast.org/Osint613/status/2007696261411905711#m
She should have been fired long ago. A resignation doesn’t carry the same stigma.
Well, as punishment, she should be made to wear a Bears shirt…and dine at Kwik Trip (gotta find the humor in life)….
I can see the Bears shirt idea but dining at Kwik Trip is a fine Wisconsin tradition with excellent food, no punishment at all. I go there often. There are 5 Kwik Trips within 3 miles of my house. And it’s hard to find a parking spot in one!
How does an Aggie girl know about Kwik Trip? They are regional.
Great post… She should have been disbarred and fired the minute she was found guilty
Chief adviser to the President of Türkiye, Mehmet Uçum, on the Maduro capture:
1. The case shows imperialist aggression now openly carried out through rogue state methods.
2. It proves international law, global institutions, and the UN are effectively void.
3. The global order has collapsed into raw power struggles with no rules or restraints.
4. Power can now only be answered with power. Force with force.
5. The real goal of imperialist action is control of global resources, especially energy, justified through lawlessness and moral decay.
6. Nation states face an existential threat, with imperialist rogue states now a visible danger, making anti imperialist cooperation unavoidable.

https://rairfoundation.com/nypd-muslim-recruit-demands-exemption-saluting-american-flag/
FTA “An NYPD recruit currently training at the police academy has reportedly requested a religious exemption from saluting the American flag—asserting that his Islamic beliefs prohibit him from doing so because he may only praise Allah.
According to retired NYPD Lieutenant John Macari Jr., an anonymous law-enforcement source confirmed that the recruit submitted a formal “reasonable accommodation” request seeking exemption from a mandatory requirement for uniformed officers. NYPD policy is explicit: saluting the American flag is a required civic act and a condition of service for all officers. It is not religious worship. It is not optional. The request raises a fundamental issue for law enforcement in the United States: whether Islamic doctrine is now being allowed to override core symbols, standards, and obligations of American service.
This incident is not isolated. It is the latest manifestation of a long-running institutional shift within the NYPD, one that has steadily elevated Islamic visibility, religious accommodation, and identity-based programming inside a department once defined by secular authority and equal standards. Over the past several years, the NYPD has hosted foreign national heritage events, promoted Islamic religious observances, and granted a growing list of Islamic-specific accommodations, all while memorializing 9/11 has become increasingly symbolic rather than substantive.”
So it begins the camel has its head inside the tent! Accommodating muslim requests and exemptions to American culture and history is the beginning of implementing Shria law via capitulation by weak kneed Democrats and leftists!!! The only way to stop it is to denaturalize and deport muslims allowed in the country under legal immigration!! Stop all immigration of muslims! All terrorists are muslims and all muslims have the potential to be radicalized and become terrorists!!! Better for the country to do it now!!! JMO
If you are in America and don’t want to salute the American flag, get out.
It’s that simple. Go back to wherever you came from and hope that Allah thinks you believe.
It actually goes beyond just the flag Mike. If he won’t salute the American flag, then there is zero reason to think that he will uphold and defend the Constitution and the nation’s laws since many of them are also “in conflict” with his “religion.”
Reality – he is effectively a “conscientious objector” and thus is NOT suitable or eligible for the job. One doesn’t get to pick and choose what they do and do not accept regarding requirements for public service, nor does it have anything to do with freedom of religion…if he doesn’t want to adhere to the requirements, then he can freely get some other job that he doesn’t think conflicts with his personal beliefs. In the case of the person in question, I suggest goat…umm…herder in the middle east…
Let’s all be reasonable here. If the poor little muslim wants to use his “religious views” to ignore the requirements of the job, then it is only fair that a jizya, which is part of his “religion”, equal to 100% of his salary be levied against him for not believing in this nation.
America’s institutions are demanding an exemption from Islamic accommodation.
47 rocks!

Just to be clear, this was a joint operation with US law enforcement and the Military.
Who is the chief US law enforcement officer? AG Pam Bondi.
Meaning that none of what we just witnessed could have happened if Pam Bondi was compromised.
So quit bitching about Bondi, and for that matter, the entirety of Trump’s cabinet. Trump knows what he is doing. If someone is not doing their job up to standard, Trump will know about it LONG before you do. So for you armchair QBs complaining and whining all day, you are just wasting your breath and making a fool of yourselves, like I’ve been telling you the entire time.
Shut up and let Trump cook. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
I think the people who are making fools of themselves are those who are already declaring this a victory for various actors and teams.
It only gets much messier from here. The next several months could be ugly.
Historically-speaking, that’s the truth.
When is your next warning about mid-terms?
Ok then, I’ll play the progressive shell game. We definitely know the actors and teams who are the losers, including the posters on this site who have continually predicted problems that curiously never seem to transpire.
In no chronological order
Staffing problems
Pete Hegseth’s replacement (we certainly can now see why the DS wanted him gone)
Tulsi’s departure after her ‘split’ with the President over Irans capabilities
Susan Wile’s having to go because of her Vanity Fair interviews
RFK had to go because he was out of his depth and created chaos.
(Historical note they’re all still here)
The MAGA split from the President over:
The bombing of Iran’s nuclear facilities
The President’s comments on immigration in Jan-Feb
The Presidents comments on immigration March-April
The President’s comments on………..you get the point
Not deporting enough illegal aliens
The Ukrainian war being now’Trump’s War’
The continued support for Israel in it war against Hamas
The support of the Tech elites
Deciding to follow the numerous TRO’s and have them resolved legally, instead of directly challenging them
Meeting the new Syrian leader
Continuing to have a presence in Syria
Not focusing on the affordability crisis
Sticking to tariffs that ‘drove up’ prices
Not reducing the prices of everyday goods
Treating Mamdani with respect at their first meeting
TACO Trump
DOGE achieved little
DOJ/FBI perceived inaction against the coup plotters
The handling of the Epstein saga
His Tweet after Robert Reiner’s murder
(Historical note: Trump’s support rose within MAGA and has remained relativelystable throughout the first year)
Then on to things that were predicted
The economy slipping into recession or a major slow down
Tariffs causing a slowdown
MAHA would fail to achieve anything substantial
Trump couldn’t/wouldn’t stop the conflict in Gaza
The strikes against Iran were largely for show and would strengthen the regime
TACO Trump
The split with Elon Musk would spread to other high-profile supporters
The BBB would not be passed
The shut-down would be blamed on the Republicans
The Democrats would win the Mid-terms (still a prediction but after the last couple of weeks increasingly doubtful)
All the DS/Trump opponents have to do is wait him out (again a prediction but refer to the caveat above)
Political victories by Democrats in Blue States heralded a resurgence for the party’s fortunes
His economic policies were not delivering the needed results he’d campaigned on
The price of key commodities was not going down
(Historical note, time was not kind to most of the above)
This is by no means an exhaustive, or even comprehensive list, but it does illustrate how wrong the commentariat, that some posters here rely on, instead of their own analytical skills, has been in predicting events during 47’s not even first year.
Other Treepers can add to the list, and this year I’m keeping a monthly record of predictions.
Yes it seems the sky is always falling on some people.
Actually, Trump is the Chief Law Enforcement Officer.
But yes, it is very good to see Bondi keep her trap shut for once. It seems she was hired to always be on Fox.
Still, not being compromised is very far away from being competent.
You are correct, Sir.
Nor does not interfering with a singular operation mean that she is NOT compromised. Many compromised people do various things in an attempt to make people think they aren’t compromised…while they are simultaneously mucking the works up on other things.
I have noticed that Pam Bondi and Kash Patel have started having regular press conferences about thwarting terrorist plots before they happen. That is a positive change; we all wanted. It is so much better than the ex post facto mopping up operations we have gotten used to and complained about. We might infer that Pam and Kash are incrementally turning around their bureaucracies and gaining more control.
For that matter, the snatch of Maduro was a joint operation between the Military and the CIA. If the CIA was not working for President Trump, it could not have happened. Perhaps John Ratcliffe is getting control of the bureaucracy he is leading as well.
morning Treepers…………….be well
So peaceful!

He starts off declaring himself a “hyphenated American” (sorry, you are American or not, no hyphenated nonsense) – then drones on about “his country.” He is NOT an American, he is a Venezuelan who is currently living in our nation. I would suggest that it is time for him and all those like him to go home, as it is abundantly obvious that America is NOT his country.

ICE Plans to Descend on Phoenix
https://www.amren.com/news/2026/01/ice-plans-to-descend-on-phoenix/
“ICE is flush with cash following last year’s passage of the president’s signature piece of legislation, the “Big Beautiful Bill.” And the administration is looking to use that money to dramatically expand its detention capabilities. Residents in Arizona have already been fighting plans to turn the former Marana prison outside Tucson into a detention center. And the Washington Post reported recently that ICE is planning to construct seven large-scale industrial holding centers—including a facility in Glendale.”
Immigration invasion/colonization is partly how they have been committing Election treasons. The Globalist-Nazi Democrat party would have been turned into irrelevance long ago, but they get massive help from their Uniparty Republicans controlled by the Council On Foreign Relations which also manages the media for the CIA and controls most large corporations, the very definition of “Fascism” is the CFR.

https://alexberenson.substack.com/p/just-how-insane-did-democrats-become
FTA “Almost six years ago, Democrats published the world’s longest political suicide note — their 2020 election platform on immigration. CREATING A 21ST CENTURY IMMIGRATION SYSTEM has now vanished from the Democratic Party Website. But the Internet is forever, and the archived document remains easily findable. It makes a fascinating read. In almost 2,000 words, the platform does not mention “border security” once. It does use the word “illegal” — referring to “President Trump’s illegal, chaotic, and reckless changes” to immigration. “Undocumented” comes up once too, in a promise to offer citizenship to “millions of undocumented workers, caregivers, students, and children.” Basically, the Democratic Party vowed that if it ran the federal government, it would open American borders to anyone and everyone in the world who could reach them. The asylum promises were especially important.
But for now it is simply worth understanding that the collapse of any immigration restrictions was a feature, not a bug. Nearly 10 million people came to the United States under the Biden Administration — the largest surge either in raw numbers or as a percentage of the population at least since the Civil War. The only surprise is that the total wasn’t even higher.”
Pray that the Democrats never get control of the White House and Congress or it’s goodbye Republic and Constitution!!! JMO

The Real Reason the Pentagon Approved Venezuela: Critical Minerals and Adversary Expulsion
https://renegaderesources.pro/p/the-venezuelan-oil-narative-is-pure
“Before examining the strategic calculus behind the January 3, 2026 military operation in Venezuela, it is essential to understand who actually makes decisions of this magnitude. In the American national security apparatus, the Pentagon does not await presidential direction on major military operations. The Pentagon assesses threats, evaluates strategic priorities, and determines when military action crosses from option to necessity. The president then executes what the military establishment has already decided is required.”
So the tail wags the dog? Not buying it.
Listen closely to PT and what he said during the press meeting right after the capture. He referred to the military as the “real” military. The corrupt in the Pentagon had no say in this.
