Trump Declares ‘Total and Complete Blockade’ of ‘Sanctioned Oil Tankers’ in and Out of Venezuela – via antiwar.com
President Trump on Tuesday issued a post on Truth Social where he declared a “total and complete blockade” of all “sanctioned oil tankers” going into or out of Venezuela, as he continues to take aggressive action against the country with the aim of ousting President Nicolas Maduro.
“Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled in the History of South America. It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before,” Trump said in his post, which came less than a week after US forces boarded and seized a tanker off the coast of Venezuela.
The president said the blockade, an action that’s generally considered an act of war under international law, would continue until Venezuela “returns” its own oil and land to the US, underscoring that Venezuela’s vast oil reserves, the largest in the world, are a primary motive in Trump’s effort at regime change.

Shouldn’t all oil and land be “returned” to the US? Obviously, this clown-in-chief has dreamed up this one, probably in the wee hours in the morning, feeling a bit reamed, after spending the day carrying out Beelzebub’s orders.
Of course all oil and land belongs to the United States. No matter where it is in the world…it’s ours! We just now have the sort of deranged lunatic who will take action on such insanity.
Winning!
And if you’re having any doubts about all this winning, just remember that the peace president is staying true to his words by ending wars and not getting into new ones…because he says so.

Trump hopeful land attacks on Venezuela will distract from release of Epstein files – normalislandnews.co.uk
(satire)
President Trump has decided to launch land strikes against Venezuela to stop people talking about the embarrassing stuff in the Epstein files. The CIA warns that such action could result in Russian-made missiles sinking US aircraft carriers, but Trump is more than willing to sacrifice US personnel to save his own skin. That’s patriotism for ya…
The Epstein files are to be published this Friday and the cache is so large that even Pam Bondi is unable to redact them quickly enough. The Epstein Files Transparency Act means that thousands of pages and gigabytes of data must be released by the 19 December deadline, including emails, interviews and evidence. Let’s pray they’ve blurred out Trump’s, um, mushroom, because no one needs to see that…
Friday’s revelations could be so bad that Trump will not just be bombing Venezuela, but other Latin American countries too. Given Colombia has a lefty president who thinks genocide is wrong, it’s a safe bet that Colombia is in the firing line. If bombing multiple countries doesn’t keep you distracted, Trump will probably announce the existence of aliens or something. All I’m saying is don’t be surprised if he bombs 3i Atlas…
It’s fair to say the Epstein saga is turning into an almighty mess. A batch of 100 images was released just days ago, and it’s weird because I was told Trump hardly knew Epstein, but he’s in all the photos with the young girls.
The FBI never worked out who Epstein and Maxwell’s clients were because, for some reason, the photos contain innocent men like Bill Clinton, Ehud Barak, Prince Andrew, and Steve Bannon. Basically, all the good eggs.
It’s unfortunate that such nice people mistakenly befriended a paedophile and accidentally took photos with his victims, isn’t it? Anyways, I’m sure they have nothing to fear from the remaining 95,000 photos which have been described as “disturbing” by those who’ve seen them. I’m confident that Prince Andrew is not sweating. After all, he hasn’t done anything that every other rich person hasn’t done…
One line of defence is that Epstein had photos of so many people that you “can’t possibly jail us all”. Trump explained only a tiny percentage of the pictures show him engaged in acts of paedophilia and those images are “cherry-picked” and “lack context”. The context being that he was too stupid to realise he was being filmed.
If Trump comes under fire, he might try to divert attention towards the Clintons and throw his accomplices under a bus. Bill and Hillary have been threatened with contempt of Congress proceedings if they refuse to appear for depositions, but they have an ace up their sleeve—they could throw Trump under a bus as easily as he could them. What do you mean, you’ve “got the popcorn ready”? x
