🚨Nicolas Maduro should’ve studied history before waving a sword at President Trump.

There is something unsettling about fat, unattractive men waving swords around. I think their appearance makes them come off more like casting for the villain than the noble (and good looking) hero.
Melania: "Donald ... How are we going to get these damn Somalians off the front page? We're not polling well on this at all!"
Donald: "Hold my non-alcoholic beer."
Now do cuba!!!

Wut? Somalian fraud makes Trump look bad? This doesn’t make sense…

The media hype was it was personal between Bush41 and Saddam Hussein, what with intentionally mispronouncing his name and all. Makes for a better story.
Yah that’s a weird glitch from the troll distribution system. Hopefully customer service is on it…
Forget it Breezy, it’s the amyls and the meth.
Did the FBI throw the cuffs on Maduro?
They'll hold a press conference whether they did or not. CC, JSM
Reports are Delta Force got him, with the support of the Night Stalkers. When the US Army comes at you with the very best, you’re not going to have a good evening. A Chinese envoy was there yesterday. I wonder if he’s still there to see the show.
District Court Judge publishes order requiring Trump to return Maduro
FIFA will need to mint a war prize.
Maduro never should have waved a sword at Guyana.
Things bravely begun don't always end up the way we'd like. Still, it's an impressive opening......I guess you can argue that we created a shit show in Iraq, but if we had done nothing Saddam would have created another kind of shit show. Perhaps not a worse shit show, but a shit show. Anyway, Panama is now a better place than if Noriega had been allowed his full growth and development......Perhaps if the Allied powers had succeeded in their efforts to overthrow Lenin, the world would have been spared an extra hundred million untimely deaths.

I'm actually enjoying the sour little snarks from the lefties here and on X.
Mamdani's feed is going to be lit today. It will be hilarious.
Idiot cultist leftists who care little for the people these communist dictators hurt- to whine, pee and moan on Q.
FLC - did you fall an hit your head again?
Democratic Party Islamist Somali fraud in not anyone's fault - EXCEPT CORRUPT DEMOCRATICS.
Trump is the only American President I ever saw wielding a sword, and for some reason, he seems like the only one who should.
Being on the wrong side of things is apparently incurable. That's a sad , and yet funny, ailment.
When did he stop
FLC is a fake Boogaloo Boy. (Like all of the other Boogaloo Boys).
Me? I'll have a diet Coke.
There are reports that Trump literally pissed on Chavez's grave... with high explosives.
wince - LOL. I approve.
The problem here is we went through all that effort to take out Noriega, then we gave Panama to China.
There has to be a point to all of this. Installing Democracy is fucking stupid if China wins the election.

You wont see any books about this or any pod casters in 5 years making a name for themselves.
Trump would have gotten Saddam without a war.
Well that was clintons fault who was lesuo compromised by the chinese
He [Rep. Giminez] went on to call the operation “this hemisphere’s equivalent to the Fall of the Berlin Wall” and thanked Trump for the “decisive action.”
The ≈ perfectly captures the analogy: not identical situations, but eerily similar in the U.S. response to indicted Latin American strongmen accused of running narco-states—complete with the exact anniversary and the sword-waving imagery as a metaphor for futile defiance.
Althouse, known for her pithy, observational style on politics and culture, often spotlights such ironic or poetic historical echoes without much additional commentary.

Ooh, good point. NYC has a nontrivial VZ community, along with the rest of its multicultural LatAm population. Many of these people hate the old county dictators. He will have to thread the needle very carefully. CC, JSM
MTG the maga .THE REPUBS JUST LOVE TO HATE now! Green using sense...“I’ve served on the Homeland Security Committee for the past three years,” Greene wrote. “I’m 100% for strong safe secure borders and stopping narco terrorists and cartels from trafficking deadly drugs and human trafficking into America. Fentanyl is responsible for over 70% of U.S. drug overdose deaths and fentanyl comes from Mexican cartels made with chemical precursors from China and trafficked across the U.S. Mexico border. Mexican cartels are primarily and overwhelmingly responsible for killing Americans with deadly drugs. If U.S. military action and regime change in Venezuela was really about saving American lives from deadly drugs then why hasn’t the Trump admin taken action against Mexican cartels? And if prosecuting narco terrorists is a high priority then why did President Trump pardon the former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez who was convicted and sentenced for 45 years for trafficking hundreds of tons of cocaine into America? Ironically cocaine is the same drug that Venezuela primarily traffics into the U.S.” Exactly why no invasion of North Korea,China, Russia, think maybe because they can fight back.How soon till trump gets us into world war so he can be seen as a WAR PRESIDENT he is so enamored with. Cmon man whats gonna stop other countries that dont like the leaders or what they do come across bomb the place and take the people and say we'll fix it. Setting situations may not be able to come back from..Russia just did same with Ukraine and say they are in the right. WILD WEST ONCE AGAIN..big difference colt 45's replaced by auto nukes. Using military to intervene in another country is a push toward that goal BOOM OUT GO THE LIGHTS!!China now says TAIWAN oh well look at US ,...did we shut off Russias oil stand back and stand by.
