to be expected

NORAH O'DONNELL: We will talk about immigration in a moment, but I just wanna talk about the scale of the military operation around Venezuela, because it has been described to 60 Minutes as using a blowtorch to cook an egg. Is this about stopping--

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Well, I don't think so. Look--

 

NORAH O'DONNELL: Is it about-- let me ask you, though. Is it about stopping narcotics? Or is this about getting rid of President Maduro?

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: No, this is about many things. This is a country that allowed their prisons to be emptied into our country. To me, that would be almost number one, because we have other countries--

I might agree with you here. For one thing Trump wanted to invade VZ in 2018. For another liberals might say it’s about tge oil. Others might say it’s so Trump, his families & donors can profit. And still others might say it’s about communism.

But IMO Trump doesn’t care about communism. He’s great friends with Kim, Xi & Putin, & also if he was really mmm y about getting communism out of our sphere he’d start wuth Cuba, not Venezuela.

He’s copy pasting my posts again trying to mock me.  In reality he’s just showing once again how much of a sheep he is

Well because if that’s Trump’s reason - along with fighting communism - we should be fighting Cuba, not its client.

Of course not. He’s muddling what Castro did & the term ‘asylum’ to confuse people, which he’s done.

This reminds me of when people claimed Aaron Rodgers didn’t lie about being vaccinated when his answer to the question of if he’d been vaccinated started with “Yeah”

I’m guessing you were one of those.

You know who hasn't whined about this?  Venezuela.  You'd think if they thought these were just innocent fishermen or something that they would have filed some sort of complaint or at least commented on it but I haven't seen that.  Any of our resident libs got a link, or are you all just like the suburban white women speaking for all the inner city black folk?

Oh yeah, I forgot you first tried saying the link didn’t work.  But you ignored when I reposted a different link to the same article, as well as an additional link I provided (which if you actually reply I’m sure you’ll dismiss as having never heard of), and you also ignored the video from @Gepetto which I later called out as having what you were looking for as well.

Translated excerpt:

The Minister of the Interior and Justice, and the second-in-command of the Chavista regime, Diosdado Cabello…also expressed skepticism about the U.S. version of events:

“At first they said it was a ship, not that little boat they found,” he said. “They immediately aligned themselves with the version that was sold. Many doubts have arisen, many unanswered questions. Where’s the gasoline on that boat? We’ve intercepted a lot of drug trafficking—those boats always have more barrels of fuel than drugs so they don’t get stranded at sea. You don’t see any gasoline here. Eleven people don’t fit in that little boat. And no one is calling it out.”

“When you’re going to tell a lie, you have to get the details right,” Cabello said. “If the United States really wants to combat drug trafficking, it should focus on the Pacific, where 87 percent of the drug flow exits,” he argued. “All of this is fabricated. There’s an agenda—get rid of the Bolivarian revolution by any means, with a fake, to produce regime change.”

For the Chavista leader, the stories linking Maduro’s government to the Tren de Aragua or the Cartel of the Suns are nothing more than “Netflix stories.”

Venezuela Communications minister accused the video of being AI:

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/venezuela-claims-video-of-u-s-forces-destroying-cartel-vessel-is-fake-and-made-with-ai/ar-AA1LNmGj

Concretely, Communication Minister Freddy Ñañez said in a Telegram channel that "it seems" Secretary of State Marco Rubio "keeps lying to his president."

"After getting him between a rock and a hard place, now he gives him an AI video as 'proof,'" Ñañez added. "Marco Rubio, stop trying to encourage a war and trying to stain President Donald Trump's hands. Venezuela doesn't pose a threat."

On 9/5/2025 at 3:17 PM, TimHauck said:

I posted an additional link for that one as well as a completely separate link from a different official. One of those officials was also in the video that Geppetto shared saying similar.  You’re wrong, but it’s OK. I know you still won’t admit it because you’ll just say you never claimed it didn’t happen just that you hadn’t seen it.

As I expected.  But it happened.  I even gave you an out because I figured you’d just say “I didn’t say that it didn’t happen, just that I hadn’t seen it!”

So just wanted to make sure you saw it now.  And that it existed within a day of you claiming you hadn’t seen it.
