My Guess as to What Venezuelan Oil Means to the USA

[J Grant]

If the socialists are not weeping bitter tears of impotent rage then the normies aren't pushing hard enough.

A bunch of armchair warrior Archie Bunke types filled with impotent rage are the normies?

America is in trouble.

 

[George Hatch]

Well, that's bathtt crazy simplistic.

Or maybe it reflects the unfortunate reality - instead of looking at DT and this admin's performance, is it benefiting America, all they care about is revenge and getting over on the libs/lefties.

Too bad it is not actually making America great again.

Exactly. Pwn the left. After all, they deserve it. The time for double standards is over. It's going to take a long time and a lot of work to break even.

I dunno about that. If you guys are fully engulfed in that rage spiral then that's a step in the right direction. You guys deserve to lose.

Relax. You won't lose for much longer. The Revenge of the C**** is ultimately inevitable.

Hey, as your personal feels, you are entitled to it.

It's a terrible way to govern a nation, though. The results will speak for themselves. I actually support some of Trump's policies, but the way he is going about them makes the cure worse than the disease. Let's see how this experiment in a superpower backpedaling to an age of ignorance, conspiracy theory, and violence leads.

We are not the ones consumed in rage 24/7. You guys are. We are just commenting on it.

 

[George Hatch]

Your kind SEEM to be enraged. They're are out in the streets right now. That's a fair bit more emotionally inflamed than just passive commentary.

The righties never even took to the streets to agitate against my state govt every time they wage their war of incrementalism on our 2A rights or baby-lives-matter.

Americans have a right to protest. Going out on the street from the left or the right is part of our democracy. Strong passions or a reaction to policy is not the same as rage. The RW are the ones spewing violent rhetoric from the POTUS down, read the hate on X.
The RW were the followers in the millions of Alex Jones who tormented the parents of school kids killed with threatening letters and death threats. Your side never stood up to it. Your side isn't the one not just pushing for deportations, which, btw, many Democrats support, but is intent on inciting things to the point where ICE is shooting American citizens.

Take responsibility for it. It is what it is.

Alex Jones is just another talking head, just like everyone else on cable news. I don't recall seeing you getting "objective" about the known untruths the news outlets like the NYT have been trafficking.

Besides, that's hardly the equivalent to obstructing LE agents and officers in their performance of their official duties.

The problem is that it will embolden states like Colorado, the left coast, and New England to abolish all drilling domestically as well as trying to eliminate refining in their states. This could lead to more refineries being built out of the country and importing finished product. That's not necessarily a good thing. Meanwhile it puts Canada in a pickle. The thick tar sands oils will be even cheaper, produce less tax revenue, and the current government of Canada is rapidly destroying their domestic oil industry as it is.

At Trumps Friday Press Conference with Oil Execs, a woman who was the 'CEO' (I assume) of a crude refinery said they process Venz crude. The President then said they had put in place regulations that allowed that refinery. And she was asked if they needed more capacity, and she said, "No."

The increase in influence on China, Russia, and Iran is the other benefit of being involved in Venezuela. A guaranteed return on capital going into the country is probably the best way to get Venezuela back on its feet.

Alex Jones is not just another talking head. I can not recall anyone else (except a few other deranged RW pundits ). I do not recall anyone on cable or the NYT encouraging their audience to send death threats and send hate mail to taunt the parents of dead school children.

This is fake. What aboutism shirk responsibility. If you back haters, own it. Or differences among people like Jones and normal conservative pundits with ethics, such as Joe Reagan.

ICE and LOE are trained to deal with difficult people or people resisting/obstrucing. That's their job descritponm But this agent used deadly force for no reason, since his life or the lives of others were not in danger
