No doubt that the vote fraud was an important factor, as were the oil resources and precious metal resources....Of course, a simpler and cheaper alternative, which didn't trash international law, would be to ban electronic voting machines in American elections, and refuse to count the electoral votes of any State that uses voting machines....

Jack Bergeron's avatar

I agree, but that Constitutional authority resides with state legislatures, mainly composed of persons who benefit from the voting machines.

DenverDad's avatar

@Jack Bergeron you make a great point. It would be a ‘slow walk’ to ‘fix’ voting from the inside out. Trump must be laser-focused on the targets, the body of the Hydra, to take each beast down. China and Russia must be pissed. Communism doesn’t belong in our hemisphere; too dangerous.

I think the election fraud is the main part of this. It's a strike against the deep state and the global cabal which avoids being framed as a domestic fight or a civil war. Does anybody think that Trump has forgotten about 2020? And Trump knows that he will never be able to create lasting change unless he fixes the election fraud. None of us know all the facts in anything, and I immediately disregard anyone who acts like they do.

Jack Bergeron's avatar

The issues of drugs, oil, the deep state and election fraud are all intertwined.

Curtis's avatar

Lol. I saw your reply, and for a second I thought I'd written it myself! I'm certain I wrote nearly the exact words on another comment. 😁

Demianovich's avatar

Then he needs to look a bit closer to home.

Curtis's avatar

He has, and has seen that the roots go even deeper. Maduro has been providing the services that the Cabal is buying.

Can't wait for them to be rounded up and arrested… should be any day now, once they nab those on the Epstein list.

Something about 800+ tons of silver / gold reserves flying out before the 💥 💥 💥 really messed up the B grade script.

Zero retaliation. No Russia missiles whistling through the the Caribbean skys.

Helicopters flying around with no citizen crack pot shots ringing out. Seriously this is Latin America. I lost track of how many rounds we went through on the 31st.

All the sites evacuated and no casualties. Thats seems really normal.

A guy with a 50 million dollar bounty on his head is picked up and told to put on his track suit and Micky mouse hat. How many times did he change his outfit on the trip to his new life?

Is his wife being charged as the narco Queen? Why was she taken? He obviously loves her and negotiated her passage to LaLa land.

Total horse and pony show!

Much of it is theater and backroom deals no doubt!

pyrrhus's avatar

Yes, there are insider whisperings that the whole affair was staged, and perhaps all the generals bribed....

Paul Charles's avatar

I love how people have inside information. Yes the CIA was there since July (and probably sooner). That is on record. We can all speculate who was bribed but hope there is more believable sources than whispers.

The "Great technocratic fascist era is upon us"? I cannot agree. Some seem to prefer the Great China-Islamic era as a better option. They love to demonize a country that has led the world for many years and a leader today. A place where real people have voices and rights. To suggest Fascism by the Conservatives is simply pathetic and despicable To that not all machinations by the two sides were saintly.

Love the America fascist description just after the real Fascist Biden Admin with ties to China (don't forget the Chinese spy balloon flying across the U.S.) was putting everyone in jail for fabricated Hollywood like productions like J6. Now the Maduro event was also a manufactured production. Theories need proof.

E. Grogan's avatar

Well done, 2nd smartest guy. Good info. I would also add that Trump is breaking up and taking down CIA, which is also hugely important. Looks like there were numerous reasons for going after Maduro and liberating Venezuela from that tyrant. I've been watching videos by Venezuelans this morning and what they report about what's been happening in Venezuela for the last 26 yrs is horrendous.

Great job of summarizing the situation, sir, thank you.

shibumi's avatar

Sorry to be the skeptic here but... IDK. If this is about election fraud, that needs to be said at some point. I can see the reason for keeping Congress in the dark, but.... I still get a weird feeling about this.

If this happened under Joe Biden, would the right be OK with it? For what it's worth, I think Massie's response would be the same either way.

There are problems in America. People can't afford houses. Other people can't afford to eat. Some people can't afford insurance. That's just a tip of the iceberg. I'm not sure how this adventure in Venezuela-- unless really clarified-- is helping individual Americans.

E. Grogan's avatar

This seems to have been done for a great number of reasons. Taking down the CIA is HUGE because they have had too much control of America, our govt and our representatives. But also it's about drug and child sex trafficking, which affects a huge amount of Americans. Vote fraud and what I just listed is simply a starting point, there are more ways this move affects Americans. But also the big picture needs to be considered here, too - Trump is trying to eliminate the massive crime, fraud, theft of elections and money stolen from the people. He also wants to end all wars and entities like the CIA need to be taken out as well as deep state. This topic is far too broad for me to list everything here, you may want to do some research on this.

shibumi's avatar

You know, just like Fox Muldar in The X Files, I want to believe.

I also wanted to believe in "lock her up" and "drain the swamp."

Hillary is still running around, and there are plenty of swamp monsters. I don't know if any of them have gone to jail. I don't know how much as been accomplished and how much is PR.

Why are so few people noting the similarities of Trump’s focus on the SAME countries listed in the “technate of American map” made at the end of the 30’s…..perhaps he is part of the deep state that is now trying to make this map a reality? Look it up! Canada, Greenland, Mexico, Panama, Venezuela and Colombia…..

I used to not sleep at night once I realized what is really going on. I have dug deeply. It is dark, too.

Glad to see someone else out there sees the Propaganda/psyops that has (and still is) inflicted on all of us. Just a little reading history will open folk’s eyes. BTW—are you familiar with Matthew Ehret? He is a historian and the first to mention the techno America map to me. Highly recommend him (“MattEhret”, “Canadian Patriot Press” Utube/Substack).

Trump vs. British Empire: Venezuela's Dirty Money Secret

DenverDad's avatar

Agreed. Like Rush used to say, “Follow the money.” Use communistic dictatorship for total control and then obfuscate to hide the real perpetrators. Might have been a back door into BRICS?

sacky boi's avatar

Whatever the reasoning behind this snatch and grab, is Maduro considered a legal or illegal immigrant?

2nd Smartest Guy in the World's avatar

In NYC, where Mamdani "won" his election using Smartmatic machines, he is certainly a refuge that deserves all of the welfare and free housing he can get.

He is Obama 2.0, playbook in action.

Same actors funding and handling him.

They will be running him for president in 2028.

No doubt. Heard he called up Trump to give him his two cents worth.

If it stops the machines it is exactly what was needed. Corrupt three letter agencies and communist and leftist had it coming. Just hope we go for the rest of them in the US.

Matt07924's avatar

This is all grade A bullshit. Voting machines? It's very simple...use paper ballots. That is the safest, most secure method of voting. But the US does not want that as there is no way to cheat. Always follow the money. And those with the most to gain from this illegal seizure of a foreign country are the Rothschilds/Warburgs/Lazards banking dynasty and oil companies. A side benefit is the US petrodollar is preserved in a way.

2nd Smartest Guy in the World's avatar

Except Dem states will fight tooth and nail to go back to paper ballots.

Matt07924's avatar

Correct. But this is the way voting should be. Anyone wanting machines wants to cheat. Simple as that.

Paul Charles's avatar

I can agree with paper ballots but other countries will still want Smartmatic unless exposed. We don't need anymore South American dictators elected by machines. I am assuming this was all part of the calculation.

You are correct. I do not bother voting as it is just a game to make the masses think they are in charge. I cannot recall in my lifetime any vote at a Federal level that made things better for the plebeians.

🚨Let me introduce you to the new leader of Venezuela. If you follow me you know I don’t agree with the MAGA base that claps like Cicus Seals while Trump does 70 billion dollar mRNA vaccine deais with Pfizer and their Jewish CEO and mass murderer Albert Bourla or massive ai data centers with Jewish traitor and globalist Mark Zuckerberg or monstrous projects with monopolistic Jewish oligarch Larry Fink and his New World Order driven company Blackrock so spare me if I push back on this War Monger nation building Bush style destruction of another country to install the next Israel loyal puppet, 100% banker and Trump and Netanyahu approved, leader of Venezuela. The pattern recognition is inarguably convincing as Israel and Jewish entities and New World Order globalists run this administration as Trump continues to pivot on the largest promises made to the base. Seems clear the Great Reset has a new leader and his name is Pres. Donald Trump.

Biden had to win in 2020 to position Trump to “rescue” America from the lunacy during his second term. This is why he went out without a whimper - he knew the groundwork for his golden era was being established. He’s been the #1 beneficiary of election fraud in 2020. He needed Americans to be in a state of mind to beg for the savior who would then come in and remake the country to suit the technocratic takeover.

Jan DAWE's avatar

Venezuela; Yeah it's got the largest Proven oil reserves in the World, PLUS;

significant deposits of gold, natural gas, iron ore, bauxite, and rare earth elements. Just North, half way between Venezuela & the U.S., we have Haiti & Dominican republic - Gold, Copper, Silver, Bauxite, Oil, Natural gas, rare earth's. ALL of these Nations are inside the 'Influence' of the U.S., with 'Ordinary' Govts Running their collective economies 'Inefficiently' - FOR their collective Home citizens(Can't really point the bone at them particularly - western 'Developed' Nation's ARE GangStars in their own right/rite.).

I always ask of Any significant event - WHY Now? And; WHO/m Benefits THE MOST in the end gambit!

If one is thinking about 'Justice', the Yanks should put their OWN House affairs in order, before international 'Actions' in KIDNAPPING another Sovereign Nation's Leader/s. and just to be clear;

Kidnapping is a crime under both federal and state law(U.S.ofA), involving the unlawful taking or confinement of a person. Penalties are severe, especially when the crime involves children, crosses state lines, or includes aggravating factors like injury or sexual assault.(How are those Cross Southern U.S. Border 'Trafficing' going, with the 'Help' of ICE & FEMA) - So, WHO'S Laws 'Apply', Inside another Nation's borders? Or are we back to 'Lawlessness' whenever 'CONvenient'? May add in another definition- 'Terrorism'/Def; Person or persons who use Bombing, 'Kidnapping' and Murder - TO, Change Government Policy! = Take your Pick! ALL of the 5 > 9 Eyes Members (Incl NATO & Definitely Israel), are quite adept at Definitive 'Terrorism'(Including usage of Mercenaries to 'Bypass' convention).

This is TrumpPETS SECOND term in office, with his connections Nationally (U.S) & Inter-Nationally, & previous Histories of Trade sanctions against Multiple Nations - Including Venezuela. With the U.S & Others minimising ENMOD conpliance, via arranged Weapon systems for Economic/Political 'Leverages' & control(hello Haiti & the Greater U.S located 'Resources' states) for Decades, why this current route of Political kidnapping? How's the Atlantic Council directives going? So again - WHY now? & Any U.S. Strategic 'Bases' existing in Venezuela/Columbia- Next door, as a All metric TRIangle Control grid?

So you’re pushing the tired Bondi-JE-coverup narrative now? Just lost all credibility.

2nd Smartest Guy in the World's avatar

Bondi has been so corrupt, with ties to some of the worst Deep State assets, so yeah, trashing her and her Epstein coverup, which should have been released at once, but instead she sat on it and made Trump look very bad indeed.

And do you really think there is not one powerful pedo that committed a crime during the entire Epstein operation?

pnelson947@gmail.com's avatar

Bondi and Susie Wiles have the same handlers.

They both worked for the same lobbyists.

Venezuela has always been a Langley/City of London ownership ( HW Bush). Trump is putting the military against the CIA to get control of all the rouge intelligence community.

shibumi's avatar

From Gemini AI:

Israel's benefits from U.S. actions in Venezuela—particularly the recent 2026 military operation to remove Nicolás Maduro—are primarily strategic and centered on disrupting the influence of Iran and Hezbollah in the Western Hemisphere.

While Israel and Venezuela are geographically distant, the Maduro administration was a key node in an "axis" that included Iran, Russia, and Cuba, often providing a permissive environment for Israeli adversaries to operate.

1. Disrupting Iran’s "Strategic Depth"

For Israel, Venezuela served as a "forward operating base" for Iran. By removing Maduro, the U.S. effectively collapses a platform that Iran used to project power in the Americas.

Intelligence and Logistics: Under Maduro, Iran reportedly used Venezuela as a hub for intelligence gathering and as a destination for its sanctioned oil and technology.

Geopolitical Isolation: The loss of a major ally in South America further isolates the Iranian regime diplomatically and economically, forcing it to refocus resources away from the Western Hemisphere.

2. Cutting Hezbollah’s Financial Lifelines

Israeli intelligence has long maintained that Hezbollah operates extensive criminal and financial networks in Venezuela, specifically on Isla Margarita.

Funding: These networks reportedly engage in drug trafficking and money laundering to fund Hezbollah’s operations in Lebanon.

Infrastructure: A U.S.-backed transition is expected to dismantle the "permissive ecosystem" (illicit finance, forged documentation, and protected transit) that allowed these groups to operate without the threat of extradition or law enforcement pressure.

3. Re-establishing Diplomatic Ties

Venezuela broke all diplomatic ties with Israel in 2009 under Hugo Chávez and remained one of Israel's most vocal critics on the world stage.

The "Isaac Accords": There is significant hope in Jerusalem that a new Venezuelan government will restore diplomatic relations and join the "Isaac Accords"—a proposed expansion of the Abraham Accords into Latin America.

Regional Alignment: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has noted that several Latin American countries are "returning to the American axis," which typically leads to improved bilateral relations with Israel.

4. Sending a Message of Deterrence

The decisive use of military force by the U.S. in Venezuela is viewed by Israeli leaders as a powerful signal to their own regional rivals.

A "Clear Message" to Tehran: Israeli officials have stated that the capture of Maduro is a "devastating blow" to the "axis of evil" and serves as a warning to Iran's Supreme Leader that the U.S. is willing to take direct action to remove hostile leaders.

Restoring U.S. Credibility: From Israel's perspective, a U.S. president willing to back threats with military force strengthens the collective security of all U.S. allies, making regional threats from groups like Hamas or Hezbollah less likely to escalate.

5. Economic and Technological Opportunity

In the aftermath of the intervention, Israel is positioned to offer "sovereignty tools" to a transitional Venezuelan government:

Security Tech: Cyber defense, border security, and counter-terror finance systems.

Civilian Tech: Agricultural and water technologies to help stabilize the Venezuelan economy and population.

Bondi should have been fired long ago...curious that she wasn't....

cg's avatar

JE will rise like Lazarus to be star witness when the time is right, when Trump needs to steamroll Congress and likely Israel, too. It’s still early, we’ll get there. Trump snookered the left into caring about JE; everyone knows this.

We also know that “MIGA” Trump is another bluff to keep Congress at bay. Any POTUS threat to Israel would be impeached and convicted this afternoon.

To shill the Bondi narrative … it’s just embarrassing, you should know better. Timing is crucial.

Te Wright's avatar

Bondi is a JE person. She can’t be trusted

cg's avatar

Uh huh.

If Bondi is actually compromised, Trump will raze Congress, fire her, and deploy Matt Gaetz.

But you guys sound like bluesky Reddit pearl-clutchers atm. The full force of the pedo blackmail control network theme will be deployed when it is time. Until then, Trump’s just trolling you.

The rot is like the bubble asset markets — it’s all one trade.

But when it goes, it goes completely, like the CSZ fault releasing its stresses and energy offshore. All at once.

POTUS understands the historical moment, his place, and (yes) the Plan. You should be thankful and include him in your prayers. Nothing can stop what is coming.
