      And no republican voter will ever realise that their trip to the ballot box directly resulted in the show today. 

      A small part of me is relieved it won’t be a 3-day operation that actually spans 4+ years — but I am properly starting to worry about Greenland now. 

      The Americans didn’t even bother creating an casus belli, they just went for it.

      Some of you should visit the vzla sub and read the comments about this. They are elated.

      If Trump can do this to Venezuela with no domestic or international approval, what is stopping Xi from doing this to Taiwan?

    6. ilovelemonsquares on

      If there’s such a thing as intergalactic or interdimensional laws, Trump will surely break those as well.

      The global reaction didn’t amount to much after the US did the same thing in Panama with Noriega.

      No prior authorization from Congress, use criminal charges as a justification, seize an unpopular dictator, quietly secure some strategic benefit, put him on trial in the US, and call it all a win for ‚the good guys‘.

      Russia, Iran, and China got too close to Venezuela. That became a threat to the U.S., the same way Ukraine was to NATO and Taiwan likely is next. Don’t be surprised if this also gives India and other powers cover to project more influence. A multipolar world means every major and regional power controls its own sphere. Maduro just met for three hours with the Chinese special envoy Xi sent to Caracas. Is that envoy still there, watching all of this from the front row? The PLA was too weak to protect its client. Russia and Putin were too weak too. The Venezuelan people already voted Maduro out. Trump just helped give it a shove. No one cares about international law arguments that only get pulled out to defend dictators. This is about Russia, Iran, and China being too close. In a multipolar world, every great power carves out its piece. People don’t want to hear that, but that’s what’s happening. Shouting won’t stop it. Power, human nature, and how states actually operate always lead to the same result.

      What’s the point of having Congress and Senate in the US if the pedo king can just do whatever he wants whenever he wants.

      No fan of Maduro,  but expect no collateral gain for democracy here.

      If anything this is mkre about Trumps control at home. He’s demonstrated the military will obey without congress.

      Russia complaining about Venezuela is a joke. After what they did to Ukraine. China had been quiet and watching closely.

      While Latinoamericans are celebrating the rest of the world is losing their mids xd

      Venezuelan gov is fucked, I don’t see the problem *if* they get a democracy out of it, and stronger economy.

    14. 2000shadow2000 on

      Why are Americans commenting like people from Venezuela are not happy about this lol.
      They are all celebrating while Americans are virtue signaling and not understanding the situation at all

    15. Individual_Alps_7255 on

      From what I’ve seen, the only people supporting this are people from Venezuela.

      Zero condemnation from Europe. Silence is agreement. Western world is clear of their ideals but on Reddit common posts follow Iranian and Russian views. I wonder how many „Americans“ here are happy that it started just in time for Moscow working hours.

      This reads like a 2026 version of the US capture of Panama ruler Manuel Noriega in 1989.
      Just like 1989 here is likely what will happen next:

      * Maduro will claim immunity as president | the USA does not recognize his latest election as president and will not recognize his immunity.
      * The Venezuela president of the their National Assembly (Jorge Rodríguez, a Maduro loyalist) will likely become Acting President – at least temporarily.
      * Maduro will be convicted and sent to a USA prison for a long time | Noriega was convicted of drug charges and sentenced to 40 years.
      * This action violates the UN Charter, so there will be a UN resolution condemning the action with widespread abstentions from Western Nations.
      * The USA will veto any UN Security Council Resolution on the violation of Venezuela’s sovereignty.
      * Some members of Congress will huff and puff, but it will ultimately not lead to any real political action.
      * Political approval for Trump among Republicans will increase; disapproval among Democrats will increase.
      * Most other Countries, especially western ones will call for restraint and calm.
      * Other powers like Russia or China will use this to argue that „Might Makes Right“ and will use this episode to justify their own international ‚law-enforcement‘ actions

      Apparently it was done pretty quickly. Much better than the just cause in 89. That’s actually great. Hopefully, those millions of Venezuelans who fled fheir country can go back to their land.

    19. Not_Sure11 on

      Russia knew more than a week ago when there were reports of their diplomats and/or family evacuating Venezuela

    21. Ulricchh on

      I’m sure this post is totally not gonna bring out all the reddit’s basement dwelling armchair geopolitic experts that somehow know more about all of Venezuela than actual Venezuelans living there.

      Remember when Trump voters claimed they wanted the US to stay out of other country’s affairs? Lol

    24. Pedsy on

      Trump hasn’t done this because it’s the right thing for the people of Venezuela.

    25. percutaneousq2h on

      I think this sets precedent for how the administration will act towards Greenland, Canada and any other country they covet.

    28. mombi on

      I wonder why the US feels emboldened. Couldn’t be cause of Russia and Israel. Nahhhhhhh

    29. Furrulo87_8 on

      Condemnation? This had been going on for weeks now and not even a peep from Europe or anyone else besides Latin America china and Russia said anything. Now that the us has recolonized a country they start to condemn? A little too late for that now isn’t it?

      The world couldn’t care less about Latin America, that much is clear… Even here it’s like „how dare you attack foreign nationals staying in Venezuela?!! … What? They attack venezuelan civilians? Eh, idgaf, I just care about our European nationals over there“.

      This operation will only embolden china and any other imperial nation to just invade other countries (Taiwan, anyone?) and the world is plummeting into world war three all because the world’s „greatest nation“ could not bring themselves to vote for the most prepared woman candidate in history over a dementia riddled criminal quasi octogenarian manchild that is trump

      I am afraid China will think now this is the best time to take control of taiwan.

    32. No_Structure4386 on

      It’s nice to see the US getting back to full on destabilization in Latin America. Classic USA.

    33. Phillyfan10 on

      I am happy for the people of Venezuela, that they can be hopeful for a brighter future than the one they had under Maduro, even if the long history of US interventionism shows it is highly unlikely to lead to the stability and prosperity they deserve. Whether it is Maria Machado, or some other US propped puppet, they are going to serve US interests first and foremost, and any residual Venezuelan interests are going to be wholly secondary.

      Hard not to be concerned for the precedent this sets around the world in our modern geopolitical landscape, though. What are both the direct and indirect consequences this will have for Ukraine? For Taiwan? For Greenland? For Canada? For Gaza? We live in tumultuous times, friends. It seems like every year for quite some time, I have entered the New Year less hopeful for my children’s future than I was the year before.
