There are many contenders for why strongman and Emperor Cheeto of the Western Hemisphere captured Maduro: leading the pack is Venezuelan oil, KOCH brothers refining capabilities, flipping off Venezualan activist Machado’s offer of help because of her winning the Nobel Peace Prize, to bolster caving polling numbers, to distract from the American inflationary spiral, to distract from Nazi Republican failure to allow ACA subsidies, to distract from the Epstein file transparency
But as Elias points out at Democracy Docket(https://bit.ly/4qfz0wA), Cheeto’s self serving ambitions that taint his foreign policy agenda, that his Venezuelan actions are somehow related to his claim that the 2020 election was “rigged” DOJ is suggesting that Maduro might plead to lesser charges if he proffers that the 2020 election was stolen Likening his failure to win the 2020 election due to election theft was similar to Maduro’s election theft in 2024
In a Fox interview Cheeto said, “The election of Maduro was a disgrace just like my election was a disgrace… It wasn’t a hell of a lot worse than what they did to us in 2020. Our election was a disgrace in 2020, and everyone knows it.” Cheeto NEVER loses so the election loss has to be in some way reversed in his twisted demented sick mind
Americans need to remember this as the year of the midterms progresses Cheeto along with his Nazi Republicans will do everything he can think of to prevent a free and fair election this coming November
I think a big part of the point I'm trying to make here is precisely that people arguing over the "reason" for going into Venezuela, or over what he's trying to "distract" from are entirely missing the point. They are falling for Bannon's flood the zone strategy.
There's a single thing every single person in the US needs to be discussing: this is a further escalation in consolidation of power as a way to garner support with those who still support him (he doesn't give a damn about those who don't), demonstrating a willingness to go deeper in violating the Constitution, and now spilling into foreign affairs in ways that have deep consequences for the US that have nothing to do with oil or any of the short-term/short-sight effects that everyone is talking about.
Any other secondary benefits he may get from this (moving the media away from Epstein, oil for his buddies, etc. are just that, secondary). He's not "distracting" anyone, we're distracting ourselves.
Cheeto’s Love Affair With Oil Runs Deep In Nazi Republican Circles
One of many reasons Cheeto wants to legally behead Venezuela’s Maduro was to give US oil company donors access to the country’s oil fields But it becomes even more sinister Cheeto realizes that Putin’s rise to power was brought about because Russia is essentially a gas station, resource rich in oil and gas Never being described as creative, greedy Cheeto is out for the same thing
The Koch Industries(KI) is headed by Koch brother Nazi Republican megadonors Charles and Bill and the Koch family which has spent billions on the conservative movement over 40y, establishing the conservative think tank Cato Institute during that time KI not surprisingly has as an arm of its acquisitions, a oil refining company
Cheeto has made it clear that he supports Big Oil and has essentially tried to erase all of the clean energy bills and initiatives brought about by the previous Biden administration All to pad the pockets of billionaires and their companies As the saying goes, “You scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours” Screw global warming if it means a buck for me and my bros!!! WE the People have to put a halt to this ever widening wealth gap in America and throw Cheeto and the greedy Nazi Republicans out of office

We're reeling toward the Rasputin Solution. Americans don't like it, but I don't see any other ideas coming forth. It's either that or we turn into Russia.
I don't even know, I'm not sure that there's not something worse coming after Trump unless Dems can come up with a real vision/narrative and grow a spine.

I agree, it’s a distraction but it’s also them getting as much of project 2025 done as they can before they’re ousted.
We're reeling toward the Rasputin Solution. Americans don't like it, but I don't see any other ideas coming forth. It's either that or we turn into Russia.
I don't even know, I'm not sure that there's not something worse coming after Trump unless Dems can come up with a real vision/narrative and grow a spine.
I can't imagine what could be worse...but then, most of us couldn't imagine Donald being President, either.
