He just invited others to do the same to him, one of these days in MAL...no nato forces will come to aid.
Congress needs to impeach him or #25thamendment & #Warcrimes at the Hague.
and they bombed a city!
He did this to hide files?
I think Chinese dignitaries were in Venezuela, hope none got hurt.
I didn't think they/he was so stupid to do this!?
Congress/Senate must act to remove him, and "mirror boi" trump & return Maduro....

Cowards and traitors control both Houses. Cowards and traitors do Trump/Miller's bidding. Maybe Fox "News" will take exception to the "Peace President's" unprovoked attack on a sovereign nation? But expect no action, no moral action, from the useless sycophants of the Fascist GOP.

But "Pottery Barn" rules apply: Trump broke it, Trump must be made to pay for it.

I pity our men and women in uniform as Trump/Miller use them illegally in another corporate-fascist adventure.

Not doubting he bombed Venezuela, just doubting he captured Maduro.
Wonder if Canada and Mexico will join forces to invade us? He started making noises again about Canada, and apparently they have their own idiot in Alberta (?) who would probably only be to happy to kiss his ass.
