"Trump sounded more like a gangster than like a American president when he said: 'he planned to fix Venezuela’s oil industry, a proposition he said could yield a lot of money.' The job of a president of the United States is not to fix Venezuela’s oil industry":

“'No more undefined missions; no more open-ended conflicts,' Vice President JD Vance told a graduating class at the U.S. Naval Academy earlier this year" but Trump's aggression against #Venezuela is an undefined mission which begins an open-ended conflict:

In Toppling Maduro, Trump Risks Blowback from ‘America First’ Base

President Trump’s pledge that the United States would “run” Venezuela for an indefinite period showed he is willing to enter foreign conflicts he once promised to end.

The New York Times

When he was campaigning in 2024 for the Trump/Vance ticket, JD Vance wrote an article in the Wall Street Journal titled:
"Trump's Best Foreign Policy? Not Starting Any Wars".

Trump ordered our military to commit acts of war against Venezuela, and Vance expressed support for this aggression.

Here is the truth about Trump's aggression against Venezuela:

"Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, who in recent months has tried to establish a rapport with Trump, said in a post on X that Maduro’s ouster crossed an unacceptable line and recalls the worst moments of interference in the politics of Latin America and the Caribbean”:

Rep. Nancy Pelosi truthfully said: "Venezuela is ruled by an illegitimate regime, but the Trump Administration has not made the case that an urgent threat to America’s national security existed to justify the use of U.S. military force”:

Democratic senators will seek to block Trump from using US forces to attack Venezuela

A group of Democratic senators who have repeatedly tried to rein in the Trump administration's aggression against Venezuela said on Tuesday that they will use a congressional vote to block a US attack on the country. “Unauthorized military action against Venezuela would be a colossal and costly mistake,” the senators said.

FRANCE 24
Sen. Mark Kelly and five other Democratic Party Senators reminded America troops of their responsibility to refuse to follow unlawful orders. This greatly angered Trump, who in response made wild threats. Now we learn that some America troops did follow unlawful orders by murdering survivors of an attack in the Caribbean. The survivors should have been rescued and possibly taken into custody.

A Dishonorable Strike

Indulging all assumptions in favor of the administration’s boat strikes, killing helpless men is murder | By Jack Goldsmith | Executive Functions

"A shooting that seriously injured two National Guard members in Washington D.C. on Wednesday thrust Pres. Donald Trump’s use of the military to police U.S. cities back into the spotlight. Democrats for months have predicted that people would get hurt as part of Trump’s federalization of the National Guard":

Rep. Pat Ryan wrote: "Trump campaigned on lowering costs and ending forever wars. He’s doing the exact opposite. How about focusing on the economy, not sending our men and women in uniform into harm’s way to stroke your own ego?"

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth: "Today, at the direction of President Trump, the Department of War carried out a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel operated by a Designated Terrorist Organization."

Justin Amash: "Thank you for documenting your crimes."
