Donald Trump’s administration has made billions of dollars in revenue from Venezuelan oil sales this year, but it’s proving tricky to work out where that money has gone.
The US took control of Venezuela’s oil exports earlier this year after the military operation resulting in the capture abduction of president Nicolás Maduro.
Vice-president Delcy Rodríguez was installed as leader, and the US suspended some sanctions on Venezuela with Trump saying they would help “fix” Venezuela’s oil infrastructure to “start making money for the country.”
But, six months on from the US taking control of Venezuela’s oil exports, there is little evidence of any economic boost for the South American nation.
This shit should be at the top of every news feed… but during this Trump administration, there are just too many things that should be constantly at the top of the news feed: this, Epstein, Israel/Gaza, Iran. Too many to keep track of and keep being upset about
The leaders and enablers are obviously not worried about any repercussions in any way. No one wants to even whisper the fix for some of this. American is probably in for a slow decline of pretty much every metric that makes america good. Crime and greed have won the day because everyone stood around and filmed it with their iPhone.
When was America ever good? When it was doing genocide? Slavery? Killing leftists and union leaders? Murdering entire black towns? Destroying entire countries for its own gain?
Fuck America.
