Why wasn’t @NicolasMaduro sent to GITMO? Whose idea was it to indict him in New York, a liberal hell hole with a communist Mayor who loves Maduro? @KathyHochul loves Maduro too. She & Mamdani were defending Maduro yesterday. Maduro should have been indicted in South Florida. (Todd Vance at DOJ Struck Again?)

Garfield, two weeks before he was assassinated

Miki Zohar, Israel’s culture minister and member of the ruling Likud party, has claimed Gaza belongs to Israel and referred to the Palestinians who live there as “guests” who will one day leave.

Zohar made the comments on Thursday when asked about his decision to cut government funding to an Israeli film award that went to “The Sea,” a move that depicts a Palestinian boy from the Israeli-occupied West Bank being denied an entry permit to visit the beach in Israel.

When pressed about why he opposed a movie that depicts the reality of the Israeli occupation, Zohar denied there was an occupation at all and claimed Israel had the right to Gaza and the West Bank, which he referred to as Judea and Samaria.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Sunday said the US will maintain an oil “quarantine” on Venezuela to pressure the government to do what the Trump administration wants.

Before launching an attack on Venezuela to abduct President Nicolas Maduro, President Trump declared a “total and complete embargo” on “sanctioned” oil tankers leaving and entering Venezuelan ports.
