President Trump discussed the military action in Venezuela with perhaps the most notable aspect of his address being the confirmation that the US will run Venezuela until a safe transition can be undertaken:

*TRUMP: AT MY DIRECTION, US CONDUCTED OPERATION IN VENEZUELA

*TRUMP: AIR, LAND, SEA USED TO LAUNCH ASSAULT ON CARACAS

*TRUMP: ASSAULT WAS TO BRING MADURO TO JUSTICE

*TRUMP: US SUCCESSFULLY CAPTURED MADURO 'IN DEAD OF NIGHT'

*TRUMP: CALLS MADURO A DRUG 'KINGPIN'

*TRUMP: MADURO WILL STAND TRIAL ON AMERICAN SOIL

*TRUMP: NO AMERICAN SERVICEMEMBER WAS KILLED

*TRUMP: NOT A PIECE OF AMERICAN EQUIPMENT WAS LOST

*TRUMP: WILL STAGE SECOND, LARGER ATTACK IF NEEDED, BUT PROBABLY NOT NECESSARY NOW

*TRUMP: WE WILL RUN VENEZUELA UNTIL WE CAN DO SAFE, PROPER, JUDICIOUS TRANSITION

*TRUMP: CAN'T TAKE A CHANCE THAT SOMEONE TAKES OVER VENEZUELA

*TRUMP SAYS MACHADO DOESN'T HAVE RESPECT TO LEAD VENEZUELA

*TRUMP: NO CONTACT WITH MACHADO

*TRUMP: REPEATS CLAIM THAT VENEZUELA SEIZED, SOLD AMERICAN OIL

*TRUMP: US OIL COMPANIES WILL SPEND BILLIONS ON INFRASTRUCTURE

*TRUMP: PARTNERSHIP WITH US WILL MAKE VENEZUELANS RICH, SAFE

*TRUMP: VENEZUELANS WILL BE HAPPY

*TRUMP: REASSERTING AMERICAN POWER IN 'OUR HOME REGION'

*TRUMP: US RETAINS ALL MILITARY OPTIONS UNTIL DEMANDS MET

*TRUMP: WE HAVE SUPERCEDED MONROE DOCTRINE

*TRUMP: WHAT HAPPENED TO MADURO CAN HAPPEN TO OTHERS IN VENZ.

*TRUMP SAYS 'NOT AFRAID' TO DEPLOY TROOPS TO VENEZUELA IF NEEDED

Latin American Presidents Rejoice, Leftists Panic over Maduro Arrest Thank goodness there is one less dictator in Latin America! From the article: Latin American leaders aligned with the White House’s pro-freedom stance celebrated the arrest and extradition of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro on Saturday morning, extended support to the exiled winner of the 2024 Venezuelan presidential election, Edmundo González. Leftist leaders in the region, meanwhile, expressed alarm and accused the United States of illicit military action in conducting airstrikes to ensure the safety of U.S. military personnel acting to detain Maduro and his wife, “first combatant” Cilia Flores. Remaining Venezuelan authorities at press time have stated that they do not know Maduro and Flores’s whereabouts and it is not clear who is acting as head of state in that country. Among the first to react was libertarian Argentine President Javier Milei, who reposted a speech he had delivered recently on the status of the Venezuelan socialist dictatorship with slogans he commonly uses in support of things he posts: “Liberty Advances,” the name of his political party, and “long live liberty, damn it!” his official campaign slogan. In the speech President Milei shared, he described Maduro’s regime as “atrocious and inhuman” and called for its demise, celebrating President Donald Trump for taking action to stop Maduro’s drug trafficking and other illicit activities. “The atrocious and inhuman dictatorship of narco-terrorist Nicolás Maduro extends a dark shadow over our region,” Milei says in the speech. “This danger and this shame cannot continue to exist on the continent or it will end up dragging us all with it. Argentina salutes the pressure of the United States and Donald Trump to liberate the Venezuelan people. The time for a timid approach to this matter has been exhausted.” Appearing on the Argentine network La Nación on Saturday morning, Milei listed the many reasons his government considered Maduro a massive international security threat. “He is a narco-terrorist who has deep connections with, for example, with the Spanish socialist party, with Podemos, he has interfered electorally in Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, and Bolivia. He also receives funding from drug trafficking through the Cartel of the Suns,” Milei explained. “He has infiltration strategies through mass migration linked to cartels, he has alliances with woke NGOs to impulse radical leftism around the world, he has links with Iran, with Hezbollah, he has offered logistical support to Hamas.” President Daniel Noboa of Ecuador also published a message remarking on the extraction of Maduro from the country, extending support to the rightful winner of the 2024 presidential election, former diplomat Edmundo González. Maduro staged a sham election that year in which he banned all other opposition candidates — including the country’s most popular politician, conservative former lawmaker María Corina Machado — and declared himself the winner without publishing any vote tallies. Machado and González used teams on the ground locally to collect the true vote tallies and prove that González won, publishing the tallies online. Maduro’s regime never contradicted the results, but forced González into exile in Spain; Machado has also since escaped to Norway after winning the Nobel Peace Prize. “The time comes for every narco-Chavista criminal,” Ecuadorian President Noboa wrote. “Their structure will fall in all the continent. To [Machado], [González], and the Venezuelan people: It is the moment to recover your country. You have an ally in Ecuador.” In Paraguay, the administration of conservative President Santiago Peña issued a statement through its foreign ministry reiterating Maduro’s status as the “head of the Cartel of the Suns,” a multicontinental drug trafficking operation. “Our country had alerted about the unsustainable deviation of Venezuela under the rule of Nicolás Maduro, head of the Cartel of the Suns. In this sense, given that this is a criminal structure officially declared as terrorist by national authorities, its persistence in power represented a threat to the region,” the statement read, concluding that Maduro’s demise should lead to a return of rule of law in the country. Cuba, Brazil and Mexico were not so happy though- Fellow leftist rulers who have supported the socialist disaster in Venezuela were less celebratory on Saturday morning. The government of Cuba, a designated state sponsor of terrorism, issued a statement accusing the United States of “terrorism against the brave Venezuelan people and Our America,” a term communists use for territory they command in the Western Hemisphere. The figurehead “president” of Cuba, Miguel Díaz-Canel, published a statement condemning America but failing to name Nicolás Maduro or defend him in any way, ending it with the official slogan of Fidel Castro’s 1959 coup d’etat, “Fatherland or Death.” The leftist government of President Claudia Sheinbaum in Mexico explicitly condemned the capture of Maduro, again without referring to him by name. “The government of Mexico condemns and energetically rejects the military actions executed unilaterally in the last few hours by United States of America armed forces,” the Mexican Foreign Ministry declared, accusing Washington of violating the United Nations Charter. Outside of this statement, the Mexican government has not indicated at press time that it will take any action in defense of the Venezuelan narco-state. In Brazil, socialist President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, one of the few ardent defenders of Maduro who was elected to office, called the “bombing” of Venezuela “unacceptable.” “These acts represent a most serious affront to Venezuela’s sovereignty and yet another extremely dangerous precedent for the entire international community,” Lula wrote in a message published to social media.

On his first day in office, Mayor Zohran Mamdani staged a rush hour train photo op while surrounded by armed security. Seating reserved for people with disabilities was cleared to accommodate the shoot. Mamdani pitched the moment as proof he is a “working socialist,” not a privileged elite. The optics backfired, highlighting performative politics that displace the public to manufacture an image.

"Eric Swalwell says if elected Governor of California, he will unmask ICE agents, reveal their identities, and arrest them.
He also says they won’t be eligible for driver’s licenses. Licenses for criminal aliens, but not for the agents protecting Americans. Need more proof on who these people stand with?"


This is unbelievable. All these people have is 'Hate America' and 'Hate Trump' on their agenda.
No country can stand this level of insurrection and treason and survive.
I sure hope Pam Blondi gets off of FOX and on the stick locking up some of these pieces of shit, starting with homo/pedo Tampon Tim and the faggot Swalwell.

For all the folks wringing their hands in fake moral outrage over Pres. Trump’s action on Maduro, you have ZERO understanding of the geopolitical significance this action for not just Venezuela but for Western Civilization... Let this Venezuelan educate you.


FWIW, my Venezuelan neighbors disappeared a week or so ago.
I don't know if ICE came and got 'em, or if they cashed in on the $3,000 reward (or however much that was) for voluntarily leaving (offer ended 31Dec2025).
They were quiet folks, I didn't have any problems with them.
No word yet on when the 20 Somalians will be moving into the 500 sq.ft. house next-door.

[final dialogue of series finale] Sonny Crockett: What you doing here? Figured you'd be halfway to New York by now.
Det. Ricardo Tubbs: Everything always takes longer than you think.
Sonny Crockett: Well we had one hell of a run, didn't we partner?
Det. Ricardo Tubbs: Yeah, we sure did Sonny.
Sonny Crockett: So, you really gonna go back up to the big bad Bronx?
Det. Ricardo Tubbs: Yeah it looks that way. How about you?
Sonny Crockett: I don't know. Somewhere further south, somewhere where the water is warm, the drinks are cold, and I don't know the names of the players.
Sonny Crockett: I'm gonna miss you man.
Det. Ricardo Tubbs: I'm gonna miss you too Sonny.
Sonny Crockett: I'll give you a ride to the airport...
Det. Ricardo Tubbs: Why not.
Sonny Crockett: ...with my stolen car.

I'd move out of the snowbelt if I wasn't such a cheap-ass.
Me and Winter don't get along anymore, but anything I do for myself is like putting new wheels and tires on a car that's on its way to the junkyard.
A waste of spirit.
I do a pretty good Evel Knievel Caesar's Palace Fountain jump impersonation just by walking.
I missed the ice under the snow and had a little spill and needed some first aid. The fire dept. took care of me.
I wonder if they're gonna bill my O'bamaCare?
Kimmy's gonna think I've been rough-housing with another gal.

"The coldest winter I've ever seen, was a summer in San Fransico"

It was a line in the movie "Escape from Alcatraz" (1979)

My wife was on a business trip to SF a long time ago.
She brought me a T-shirt, something about the Alcatraz Triathlon, "Dig, Dash, Dive" or something along those lines.
It's probably still around somewhere. 
I never throw anything away.

used travel trailers and motorhomes are easy to find here (81 degrees today) people snowbird a few years and then they say screw it and buy a house and never leave. pretty common for houses to have cement pads and sewer and power hookups for the relatives from up north to park until hurricane season rolls back in. others call one of the numerous cactus patch rv parks home, only moving their trailer when there are major renovations going on. the fancy rv parks have del sol in their names.

Mexican President Sheinbaum says she CONDEMS the US capturing President Maduro.. [Video]

https://x.com/iAnonPatriot/status/2007552882770637013

Sheinbaum, typical Mexican name. I think she ran unopposed after the cartels killed something like 19 of her opponents.
Her TDS won't let her shut up, though. (See the Maduro video taunting Trump at: https://x.com/RagingKuJo1222/status/2007571618894119343 [too funny])
We used to have a saying in The Company, "Silence makes no mistakes." Words to live by.
We were always getting in trouble about something-or-other, and you want to explain yourself, but the more you talk, the deeper the hole you dig.
There's probably some fancy psychological name for not having the ability to STFU, but it escapes me right this second.

I think Tim Burchett (R- Rep TN 2nd district) said it best, "God gave me the right to remain silent, but not the ability."
Pretty smart for a guy almost a year younger than Kimmy.

I quit pay Teevee years ago, but my mother wanted it for my younger sister before they died, Mom, 2014, Carol in 2018.

I got a TiVo box, DVR and DVD burner. I have 400 discs, 1,200 movies, lot of old stuff mostly TCM depression-era, in a Sony 400 disc changer next to me. 
Lightning took it out in 2017 or so. The strike was on the house, not the powerline, you could see the tracks on my living room wall.
It's about 24x24x6", the discs are on a turntable standing upright in a torus shape. The sumbitch probably weighs 200 lbs loaded.
I had an IR to RF remote deal set up you could control it from the living room or bedroom.
It's just kind of abandoned-in-place.
The TiVo was pre-digital, analog TeeVee, so it's worthless.

2026 is gonna be hard on you, my friend.
I'd have more respect for you if rather blaming 'generic boomers' on your unhappiness if you put the blame where it lies, with niggers, muzz, joos, homos and pedos.
Making up non-existent things in your head is very unbecoming for someone as smart as you are.

There's going to be a huge push to clear the deck before the next major distraction, 4July2026, the 250th 'birthday' of the country.
By then, most Dims might be in custody and not be able to run in the midterms.

All this larping is all good & fun for the leftists/new commies right now, but people are tired of the chaos. At least the ones who matter, the homo/tranny/pedos/purple hairs don't count.
I spent 15 years in countries watching what happens to countries in trouble, the USSR, Northern Africa, India, Somalia, the Middle East, "Palestine," Europe before the GloboHomos invented the EU, etc.
They may very well make a martyr of "Orange-Man-Bad', which will be the sorriest day of their lives.

Check the search frequency of queries inside the Beltway of  people wanting to get out of the country, because they're having a 'fit of the imaginaries' or just plain criminals, it's enlightening.
Second-guessing "Orange-Man-Bad" is a dangerous game, ask Maduro.
A 60-minute op, and he's gone. Reagan was good, but Jeeze, in the end, he was still just a low-IQ actor that fell in with the wrong crowd.

Buckle up, Buttercup, the ride is just starting.

I've had a thing for gals named Teri since Jr. HS when I met my future ex-wife.

Things pretty much went tango-uniform when she became a big-shot, or so she thought, with the logistics company she worked for and cut her hair off to be more something.

Me and Pam were somewhere between Lake Geneva and the Finland Station when we started doing the Cold War horizontal bop.

Me and Teri kept tolerating each other until Texting Woman about killed me. She couldn't take anymore. She ran off with a gay male pediatric nurse because she thought it would be chic.

Didn't work out so good for her. Pedos gonna pedo. I kind of regret not taking her up on her indecent proposal after Angie's funeral, but I didn't want to get HIV/AIDS or something. I didn't want to cheat on Kimmy, but that may be academic at this point.

We're too much alike, I know too much about geopolitics, Kim knows too much about post-Covid healthcare. Killing is killing.

What the 'doctors' are doing to my sister is proof of that. Waterboarding? Shit, hold my beer, my girlyfriend is an MD!

Reagan was not low IQ, but was wrong about a lot. Loved him at the time, which was before I could vote or knew about the red sea pedestrians.

Not all boomers BTW. Most boomers couldn't even vote in 1964 and 1965, when the death blows to America were struck.

Although my boomer dad started a hippy-yippy, he wized up to the Dems. Took him longer to wise up on the rest. You still haven't, and I don't see any excuse for it. I've met several GWOT vets who certainly have.

I blame boomers, and the so-called greatest gen before them, in the same sense as Kipling's end to The Hive.

The stock grew weak.

Doesn't matter how many people you've offed. Either something 's off with you or you just too old and I should leave you to your hopium.

Lighten up, we'll know by next summer. There's nothing worth getting spun-up about now, we're both speculating at this point.
I'm not that old, I still have my hair and it's not grey or white but my beard has some white starting, but I'm usually clean-shaven.
Tampon Timmy, the pedo, who is three years younger than me, Kim's age, looks old enough to be our grandfather.

Truce, please. We're just talkin', exchanging ideas, ya know?
I respect you too much to get into a firefight. 
There's not many of us left at 4um.

I will give you major credit for one thing, PFV. I don't know your age, but you seem to be handling the US's slide into communism/socialism/new communism much better than I am.
Maybe I've been too close to the fire in the past, actually by operating in communist countries. 
Maybe you can help explain the "New and Better" way to me. Mao's "Great Leap Forward"? FDR's "New Deal"? LBJ's "Great Society"? ObamaCare? Pol Pot's "killing fields"?
I can't think of anything that Clinton did that was horrible right now, I'm getting tired.
The exchanges should be interesting, to say the least, my friend.

I AM a nice guy, just opinionated.

"Truth" is subjective.

Facts are not.

"Reagan was not low IQ, but was wrong about a lot."

He was an actor, nothing more, nothing less. He wasn't calling the shots.

"Although my boomer dad started a hippy-yippy, he wized up to the Dems."

You're mad at your Dad, copy that. Mine died when I was 14, I never knew him.

"...or knew about the red sea pedestrians."

Unfortunately they're not going anywhere.

"You still haven't [wised up], and I don't see any excuse for it."

I have. You just want to be mad.

"I've met several GWOT vets who certainly have."

GWOT was bullshit. What good came out of it, TSA? Talk to a Vietnam vet. Better hurry, they're going fast.

"I blame boomers, and the so-called greatest gen before them, in the same sense as Kipling's end to The Hive."

Congrats, you're better read than me. I'm going on lived experience. Not make-believe.

"Doesn't matter how many people you've offed."

100% correct. You should worry about "healthcare" providers that were just following Fauchi's and Biden's BS mandates under threat of imprisonment directed at US citizens, not crying over Maduro.

"Either something 's off with you or you just too old and I should leave you to your hopium."

I'm OK, You seem to be pretty upset for no reason though. (See post #43) Free country.

I don't want the US going the way of the UK, EU, Australia.

The EW1 tech guys from Magnavox, now Raytheon, used to call this 'Binary Bop'. You should understand, digit bender.

You know who she is? I do.

JUST NOW: El Salvador President Nayib Bukele calls out Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen for saying the arrest of Maduro is “illegal.” “So you just want to defend thugs.” Bukele is right, Van Hollen is embarrassing our country.

Blast from the past: Colon Pollip, with Anthrax.

Hey everybody, first-shift Esso is calling it a night. I filled in for second-shift Esso since Kimmy was indisposed.
Treat him nice, he's new here at the secret airbase, and shy. He's learning the BS, albeit slowly.
Here's another blast from the past, only boomers and GenX remember...

Esso Sunday morning is up next... It's 27 degrees at Langley, VA, The snow is light and moving out.

Esso 4 from the back shore of Lake Logan on this gloomy day in the Beltway.
I hope Esso 1's GF doesn't get sick anytime soon, it really stinks in here. He needs a bath, LOL!
No new news to report, how about an old GenX favorite?

So much for the pizza traffic indicator in DC, "Orange Man Bad" moved the whole DC works to Mar-A-Lago. Black tie only.

The FBI HQ is closed for the duration according to Cash Patel, too many leaks to an adversarial MSM.

It's moving north and west to NY, OH, IL, MI, WI, MN and CA. That's a secret, don't tell anybody.

Word is, Caracas, Venezuela was just a test for Little Mogadishu in Tampon's hood. Might take more than an hour to clear that and mop-up due to so many lefties rolling on the ground pissing themselves.

Cali's another story, LA may need napalm strikes to clear out the druggies, not like it's not burned anyway. Whitey is moving in!
