Venezuelan Dictatorship

Run by Donald Trump, his words not mine.

Venezuela is approaching a vote on a historic amnesty law regarding how dissidents were arrested. But first they decided to release a key figure, the VP of Machado’s party – apparently.

After he was released, 4 vehicles of cloaked individuals swooped in and took him away, from his neighborhood.

Clearly, they released him so they could recapture him and keep him elsewhere, ensuring he did not receive amnesty. A sinister move.

Right now, there is very little difference between Trumps Venezuela and Iran. Perhaps he should clean his own backyard, first.

[since the beginning of time they attempt to teach us that if we speak-out your life will become very unpleasant. We have never stopped speaking-out. there is no rose garden, only the rose.]

International Law

Has been all but decimated with regards to the United States.

Its replacement seems to be global party apartheid. The party system, where it was once national – is gaining international support, which is also down to Donald Trump.

Now the left is the global left, and the right also has international support. There is no logic that says this is a good thing. We are accepting that the world is divided. So, there is no point in attempting compromise. You must secure full control.

In this scenario, humans will run out of bodies to fight endless wars.

Iran Negotiation

President Trump wants Iran to lay down her arms. But my instincts tell me President Trump does not actually know what he wants. Regime change to what regime?

We are where we are because you cancelled the prior agreement, for some trumped up imaginary reason.

This is what Iran is being asked to give-up.

Now I ask you is it a rational mind making this request?

Trump is aware of the shipment from China, as well. If he starts a fight, he will be looking for total destruction.

Germany in Saudi Arabia

A news snippet caught my eye in passing; Merz in Saudia Arabia. Wait a minute, full stop. Why is Germany in Saudi Arabia? I thought the US manages the Saudi relationship.

Germany is in Saudi Arabia to wean itself off United States Liquified Natural Gas. You heard correctly. Not to wean itself off Russian LNG, but American.

There is more:

Germany recently loosened its arms‑export restrictions on Saudi Arabia. The visit includes discussions on military cooperation and defense technology, signaling a shift toward a more pragmatic security partnership.

Merz is traveling with a large business delegation. Gulf sovereign wealth funds already hold stakes in major German companies, and Berlin wants to expand these ties — especially in infrastructure, digital innovation, and industrial cooperation.

Saudi Arabia is the first stop in a three‑day trip that also includes Qatar and the UAE. The entire tour is designed to reposition Germany’s global economic relationships amid shifting geopolitical dynamics.

This is obviously an installment in my series on how Donald Trump is dismantling America, while making America less secure.

It should not be difficult to see why my prediction of a war on American shores by 2030 is legitimate.

Americans may want to quietly begin developing a defense strategy for their local area.

If you stick with Donald Trump’s party of apartheid, America and Ukraine will likely become sisters.

[international law is eradicated. the size of the alignments that United States are no longer included in, has grown to the proportion where somebody will start shit – eventually. we will not be seen as weak and isolated, we will be]

[I consider the battle against party apartheid in America to be as great as my never-ending battle against evil. To stop Trump, we must go independent. increasing the independent vote by a large number will put the administration on their back foot. once on their backfoot, the independent majority will align with the actual needs of America. it will be an earthquake

I will extend my protest no vote until an American legislator makes a policy on the genocide in Palestine. FYI]

[there is no point to discussing a timeframe upon which it will take America to recover. America may not recover. should America actually be the Babylon in the Book of Revelation, you should listen for a trumpet’s blow]

Godspeed

[if he had time to do it Trump would see the end of the dollar as a global standard of payment, but that would take longer than 3 years]

Collapsed Economy

To my knowledge we started about 15 years ago with Venezuela…. took that long to finish the job. Now we are bragging about collapsing the economy of Iran, and soon Cuba. Do people understand that there are lives attached to this scoreboard? This sport is morally degrading on both the receiving and giving ends. And we laugh about it.

I will welcome the day when the United States stops being a Richard.

[little miss; if the US has the greatest military force in the world, why have we not won every battle? we did not win the last (A). saying it when the world knows it is not true is the definition of propaganda. not a good look]

Epstein Sadism

Now that we understand the cravings of the rich and mighty, it should be easy to see that both Big Brother and Survivor are public displays of sadism.

In addition, the primary reason what we have on Epstein is tantamount to locker room chatter, were it not for the response. Has to be down to the intelligence agencies. How did anybody’s intelligence agency not make the connection to the Epstein sports league?

Are we to believe that every intelligence agency in the world did not see Jeffrey Epstein? There is only one spy agency that operates with that impunity. Begin looking in that direction if you are not afraid of the truth. The intelligence community has more than what was released. However, in the US there is no accountability for the intelligence community. Also, by design as the FBI and CIA remain separate from Homeland Security; despite both agency’s sharing responsibility for 9/11/01.

[both the FBI and CIA are responsible for not maintaining an environment conducive to the sharing of information, for the benefit of the United States-their employer. a condition which more likely than not, exists to this very day]

K-Pop Cult

I do not actually understand the K-Pop entertainment genre. However, it is clearly beginning to resemble some type of Shakespearian styled tragedy.

I do loosely understand that the genre has not gained global approval. Either way parents should be aware of similar circumstance to the three sisters who jumped to their death in India.

I remain convinced that the one thing all children need is love, playing, and laughter. Looking anywhere else, looking to follow anything else – can be perilous.

AI Layoff’s

I have an aggregator running, in Artificial Intelligence land as it were. I will assist our leaders to track the number of AI layoff’s so they can begin working on jobs legislation to offset AI losses.

(Oop’s, did I say that out loud?)
