“The Truth Behind Trump’s Aggressive Venezuela Strategy”

"The Truth Behind Trump's Aggressive Venezuela Strategy" | naked capitalism

Trump does things half-baked. Even if his reasons for action may not be justified by more current information, he'll go through with it. This is another US war like the wars in Iraq, Libya, and Ukraine where they hoped someone else would pay for the costs after it was all done with the added benefit of seizing the gold reserves and forcing all transactions through the New York Federal Reserve to preserve dollar hegemony. Seizing Venezuela's oil is a much longer term strategy as Trump has shut down alternative energy projects as a favor to the oil and gas industry.

Trump suspends the Green Card lottery. It's one way of manufacturing illegal immigrants by extending the already long delays in getting citizenship. Nothing of the student visas and foreign visas his businesses brought into the country. Nearly 200 this year.
