Wild mental gymnastics, because they're in no way targeting Putin, while they are double tapping kindergartners. None of these actions have impacted Putin, and if anything, destabilizing Venezuela has given Russia a bigger foothold on oil sales. If it wasn't obvious with the Ukrainian war, the US doesn't care about what Russia is doing.
A lot of you fail to see the lines being drawn and will not even recognise it if I show it to you. You already called it "mental gymnastics" proving to me that you have a hard time figuring it out. I already did the hard work for you so you don't have to and I guess you believed Trump was going after Maduro for drug sales (because Maduro is a pharmaceutical rep. , right?) Maybe that one is easier for you to understand. No "Mental gymnastics" required lol ๐
Bring receipts or don't speak. No one thinks that about Maduro, it's explained in the 2025 National Security Strategy that it's because the US can't compete with China and needs to pull back international presense. If you can't prove what you say even with your "proof," there is nothing you need to say. What, did god whisper it to you in a dream? You read it in your tea leaves? Your FBI handler finally reply back?
Hmmm, you already got the message. I can not tell you what to do with it. When I told Iranians on Reddit all their leaders will be eliminated, I was insulted. But that's ok
