Why People Killed By Aerial Bombing Don't Matter

The West’s monopoly over this most lethal violence has conditioned how we see the victims of bombs – if we see them at all.

This is #brilliant (from Democratic Socialists of America USA)

“I used to wonder how it was possible that Trump could have won in 2016, and then again in 2024, given how emotionally #toxic and depraved he is.

“I don’t wonder anymore. I think he won for that exact reason. Because he carried at least one broken shard to reflect the broken shards in millions of others.

“If you’re a racist, you found your guy. If you’re a misogynist, you found your guy. If money is your only religion, you found your guy. If your heart is armored shut, you found your guy. If you mock the disabled, you found your guy.

“If intelligence makes you insecure, you found your guy. If you’re a sexual predator, you found your guy. If you trade in #humiliation and #conspiracy and filth, you found your guy.

“If you’ve never done a single hour of emotional inventory, you found your guy. If you cheat, stiff contractors, #bankrupt your obligations, and call it savvy, you found your guy. If you lie as easily as you breathe, you found your guy. If cruelty feels like strength, you found your guy.

“If wh*** #grievance is your comfort food, you found your guy. If your ego is a black hole no title can fill, you found your guy. If #warmongering fuels your ego, you found your guy, If #empathy feels like weakness and #dominance feels like oxygen, you found your guy.

“If he’d only carried one or two of these pathologies, he might have been dismissed as just another loud, damaged man. But he carried a buffet of them.

“That was the appeal. Millions could locate themselves somewhere in the wreckage. They didn’t have to agree with all of it. They just had to recognize a piece of themselves in it.

“It was never really about him. It was about the #Validation. The #absolution. The #permission. He didn’t invent the #resentment he amplified it. He didn’t create the #cruelty he #normalized it. He gave millions the #intoxicating relief of hearing their ugliest #impulses echoed back at rally volume.”

Trump’s Frightening, Illegal Attack. And Words To Match

Trump’s Frightening, Illegal Attack. And Words To Match

The warmongering moves of a US president

By Liza Donnelly, Jan 03, 2026

“We know that Mr. Trump’s warmongering violates the law.”
—NY Times Editorial Board.

Last night, Trump ordered an invasion of Venezuela. In an operation that was apparently planned for months, the U.S. military stormed Venezuela and kidnapped President Maduro and his wife. They’re being taken to New York. Casualities of Venezuelans is not know, apparently no Americans were harmed.

My head hurts. My heart hurts.

The bottom line is, Trump plans to “run” Venezuela, he said so in the press conference just now. Haven’t we learned our lesson? How can this be justified as legal? What will Congress do, can this be grounds for impeachment? How do MAGA supporters feel about this?

I just watched Trump’s press conference so you don’t have to. Here are some key things that I heard and was able to write down. It went on for an hour, so I did not catch a lot, but had my ears were tuned for what I thought to be significant statements.

Trump:

“So we are going to run the country until a transition takes place. We can’t take a chance of anyone else taking over. We’re there now. We’re going to run it until a proper transition can take place. We want to mke Venuzeual rich, independant and safe.”

“The Monroe docrine is a big deal, but we’ve superceded it.”

Pete Hegseth spoke with bravado, swagger and his ususl dramatic tv voice. About Maduro, he said,

“He f-around and he found out.”

“This is America first, this is peace through strength. America is back.”

Gen Dan Caine, Chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff spoke in incredible detail about the operation, naming all the planes and systems and machines and technical stuff, as if trying to show how great this country is with such things. In fact it was said by Trump and Hegseth, bragging about our military prowess. Caine said we are claiming “the power of American force.”

Marco Rubio: “This president is a president of action.”

When asked if Congress was notified, he said, “It’s not the kind of mission you can pre-notify. This is a Congress that leaks.”

Trump:

“With me you’ve only had victories. No losses.”

“We’re in the oil business now.”

“What Joe Biden did to this country should never be forgotten. If they had won, we would now be Venezuela on steroids.”

“We will run it properly and will bring in the biggest oil companies in there.”

Asked about running the country could be for a long time: “Its not going to cost us anything. Theres a lot of money in the ground.”

“The money is going to the Venezuelans. And we will be reimbursed.”

“The people behind me will be running the country.” i.e.Rubio, Hegseth, Steven Miller (who said nothing. Why was he there?)

“We are not afraid of boots on the ground.”

It’s all about money.

Listening to all these white men speak, it’s all about men being tough.

When a reporter asked Trump about China and Russia, his response was “we are in the oil business now.” This means that Trump will try to leverage power as he controls all the oil in Venezuela.

I didn’t plan to write about politics today, and I don’t usually write much about international issues. But this is about Trump, it is too important.

Of course I feel for the Venezuelan people, they were ruled by a horrible person, Maduro. A friend of mine had to leave her country of Venezuela a couple of years ago. Rayma Suprani is a political cartoonist and was very critical of the government, plus she’s gay. She was harassed and her life threatened incessantly, so she had to leave for her own safety. She now lives in Florida.

But I strongly believe that we should not get involved with regime change–I know we have in the past. We don’t take over countries and decide to “run them” without their permission. With the kind of actions as Trump ordered last night, it then is justifiable for Putin to go in and arrest Zelenskyy, for Xi JinPing to take over Taiwan.

This is not about human rights, it’s about power and money.

So, happy Saturday. I hope you are able to enjoy your weekend. We’re going out to a movie for a change!

I am grateful that you are here. See you tomorrow!
