Venezuela

[Rebel5soul]

Why would overthrowing Maduro lead to lower energy prices for American consumers?

Venezuela has the largest proven petroleum reserves in the world, larger than Saudi Arabia. It is also very heavy oil so there are only two nations that developed the technology to handle the stuff, the US and Canada (oil sands). The Texas Gulf Coast refineries are configured to handle that sludge.

Maduro, and Chavez before him, gutted their petroleum industry. Removing Maduro and his clowns would allow investment which would lead to production.

Then there's the issue of Venezuelan refugees. We have a problem with their criminal gangs here but those same gangs are destabilizing Columbia as well along with the 2 million +/- that swarmed there along with all the problems they bring with them.

It is in the United States best interests to help Venezuela return to prosperity. In 1980 the Venezuelan Bolivar exchange rate was 233 per US Dollar. Today you can buy a one million Bolivar banknote for $9.69 and that is with a profit to the seller, you can figure out what the current exchange rate is. That is what Chavez/Maduro have done to that nation.,

Tl Dr Answer: it won't affect energy prices

And you think the US has the right to overthrow the leadership of another country to increase global oil production?

It's about kicking Russia, China, and Iran out (Monroe Doctrine). Oil is just a bonus.

In five mins, will you tell us that it's about something else?

Energy prices would be a good start..............ya think?

And you think the US has the right to kick other countries out of Venezuela?
(As I understand it, the Monroe Doctrine is an American policy document - not internationally accepted law)

Those sharks that did prefer their narco-terrorists cooked are now feeling discriminated against, have formed a minority group, and are demanding proportional representation at meal time. US SOCOM has initiated another working group to study the issue.

You act like you personally took out the fishermen. What a weird MAGAt .

They all seem to act like they are participating.....it is quite odd

running Maduro's ass out of the country with Russia, China, and Iran right behind him.

Why would our weak president run his co-conspirators out of the collective drug trade?

Do you still think oil is a "renewable energy", shit for brains?

If it's Fentanyl you want to cut off, Venezuela is an odd place to focus..

The precursor chemicals to make Fentanyl come from China, to Mexico, to Venezuela, where the final product is made and shipped on drug boats to the US (and other nations).

So Venezuela is a perfect place to look for the drugs since neither Mexico nor China are interested in stopping their part of the drug pipeline.

Fentanyl doesn't go through Venezuela.

Of course.

The one place no one would suspect.

Considering they think the guy who has to rape and payoff pornstars is a "real man" - it's not surprising.

At least they all don't sit in a chair like a woman

These are important things

It's not like they wear diapers or maxi pads. Sheesh, give'em a break.

The graph I posted above shows clearly that this is not the case. The link provides further details.

Your graph shows SEIZURE locations, not place of origin.

Please try to keep up.

The law says POTUS is only guilty of war crimes if Congress says he is. Bitch.

Oh you dont' like the Constiution when it doesn't suit you, do you traitor??

That's why you and the rest of the anti-American left is appealing to "international law" which is a joke as it has no power in the USA much less over POTUS, the leader of the only super power capable of enforcing ANY of it.

And even the Congress has no power to legislate away the President's core Article II plenary authority. DA is ignorant of the fact that Thomas Jefferson, a founding father, sent the Navy into the Mediterranean, invaded Derna, killed Barbary pirates, and launched America’s first overseas regime-change operation, conveniently skipping the whole ‘declaration of war’ formality. The Founders weren’t quite allergic to executive freelancing and brought no actions as to the unconstitutionality of his actions.

Location seizures have little to nothing to do with where the products are made.

YOU may think so, but that's like saying arresting drug dealers is going to stop the supply makers.

Well, the video that the people in the know say the surviving cartel members were clinging on to their sinking vessel and appeared to NOT be using any forms of communication. This torpedoes all of your hopes that it was a righteous strike.

As many screw-ups this admin has had, is it really a stretch to believe they botched this operation too?

Dumb MAGAT s lol.

 

[icanhelp1]

For about five minutes


So the war on drugs worked....everyone is fine now

Huzzah!

Also, you're an idiot

Fuck off swill bait.

If you read up on it a bit, you'll see that Jefferson was very careful not to stray from the mandate given by Congress. He asked for and was granted authoritity by Congress for his actions. You know, the way these things should be handled.
