Quote from: Brother Mythos on January 06, 2024, 01:05:33 AMJanuary 6, 2021 - A failed coup d'état was attempted by TFG

I don't know how history will eventually name this day. I'm in favor of calling it "Failed Coup d'état Day," because I believe TFG should always, and only be remembered for his many crimes and failures.

"Insurrection Day" is my second choice.

If this forum were more active, I would add some more possible choices, and then create a poll. But, ... <shrug>.

So, here we are four years later. But, as a reward for his failed coup d'état, 'Merica's trailer trash, with substantial support from the MSM, Republicult™ media outlets, and numerous oligarchs, has given TTSS yet another chance to destroy our republic. The Resistance 2.0 has it's work cut out for it.
Now, five years after the unprecedented 'Merican historical event, the undisputed leader of Insurrection Day is the sitting POSOTUS.

This happened because on Tuesday, Election Day, November 5th, 2024, 77,303,568 'Mericans saw a twice impeached, 2020 election loser, convicted felon, and adjudicated rapist on the ballot with an 'R' after its name, and said to themselves something to the effect of, "Oh, hell yeah! Gimme some more of that!"

I could have posted this in the 'The Venezuela Invasion' topic. But, this article just screams Toxic Ego:

Trump Made Huge Diplomatic Move Because His Feeling Got Hurt

"|STILL STINGS] The president reportedly declined to install opposition leader María Corina Machado as head of the country because she didn't turn the prize down."

As per this article:

"White House insiders say President Donald Trump chose not to install a nominal ally as leader of Venezuela following his lightning invasion this weekend because she bruised his ego.
 
Many expected that after the MAGA administration's shocking capture of Nicolas Maduro in the early hours of Saturday, Trump might have sought to appoint opposition figurehead María Corina Machado as the oil-rich nation's new head of state.
 
Two people "close to the White House" told The Washington Post on Monday the president declined to do so because Machado had committed the "ultimate sin" of offending his pride.

They cited the opposition leader's decision in November to accept the Nobel Peace Prize rather than turning it down to protest the committee's decision not to give it to Trump.
 
"If she had turned it down and said, 'I can't accept it because it's Donald Trump's,' she'd be the president of Venezuela today," the newspaper's sources said."

Given the well known history of His Vileness, this current incident shouldn't come as much of a surprise to anyone. So, right now, the only question in my mind is, "Was this example of the POSOTUS' toxic ego intentionally spoon-fed to the press by loyal sycophants, or are there really "Two people "close to the White House"" who are genuinely appalled by his behavior?"

Now, about those 'Merican Oil Oligarchs:

Donald Trump Says He Spoke to Oil Companies Before Venezuela Action

As per this article:

"President Donald Trump has confirmed he spoke with oil companies "before and after" the operation to capture Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.
 
Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One on Sunday, Trump said he had spoken to "all" of the oil firms before the raid took place, without specifying what these conversations involved.

"They want to go in. And they're going to do a great job for the people of Venezuela. And they're going to represent us well," he added."

And, further along in this article:

"However, the raid has drawn criticism on international legal grounds, while leaving other countries in Latin America as well as Greenland on heightened alert. At the same time, the consultation with oil firms—rather than Congress—has now attracted scrutiny from U.S. lawmakers, who believe the administration bypassed the domestic prerequisites for what some consider an act of war."

Oh, and I also learned a new work today:

"The essence of neo-colonialism is that the State which is subject to it is, in theory, independent and has all the outward trappings of international sovereignty. In reality its economic system and thus its political policy is directed from outside."

Again, I'm not 100% certain, as I was not a political science major at 'uni,' but this kind of looks to me like the direction 'Merican Oil Oligarchs may soon be steering Venezuela.

Principia Discussion / Re: Have a Merry Mungday!

'Tis the fifth day of the first season of the Year of Our Lady of Discord 3192, and once again time to honor the Patron Saint of The Season of Chaos, Apostle Hung Mung.

For as Episkopos Good Lord Omar Khayyam Ravenhurst, KSC, himself wrote in The Honest Book of Truth, "Hung Mung, Chaoist Sage and True Man of Old, is Patriarch of Chaos." And, he told us that it was Apostle Hung Mung himself who enlightened the legendary Chinese philosopher Lao-tse.

Now, according to Lord Omar, Apostle Hung Mung was not your run-of-the-mill, conventional saint. The Patriarch of Chaos was, definitely, not a saint who spent his time "marching in." No, rather than "marching in," Hung Mung took to "rambling about slapping his buttocks and hopping like a bird." And, in fact, our Apostle's unique technique proved to be highly effective. For, by way of comparison, have you ever heard of any other saint "marching in" anywhere, who ever enlightened anyone? Anyone at all?

Hail Eris!

All Hail Discordia!

It's early yet, and I thought both 'Colonialism,' and 'Imperialism' had gone out of fashion some time ago. But, I'm not 100% certain, as I was not a political science major at 'uni.' So, for right now, I'm inclined to score this one as 'Attempted Grand Larceny.'

However, that charge may need to be changed to 'Grand Larceny,' depending upon who ultimately gains control of Venezuela's massive oil reserves. Now, if the 'Merican Oil Oligarchs do end up profiting from this invasion, then I believe this will be Marco Rubio's ticket to winning the the Greedy Oligarchy Party's (GOP's) presidential primary in 2028. I write this because if there's nothing in Venezuela with Trump's name already on it, he wouldn't be able to locate the country on a map. So, I doubt His Vileness was the one who originally came up with the idea for this invasion.

I know you and I don't speak, but you're missing the whole point, here.

This doesn't have to do with oil, at least not directly.  It has to do with a modern day Molotov Ribbentrop Pact, where the USA, Russia, and presumably China will divvy up the parts of the world worth having.

All you have to do is look at Rubio's statements to see that.

https://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2025/12/19/Marco-Rubio-Ukraine-Russia/3961766175571/

QuoteDec. 19 (UPI) -- U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Friday that U.S. negotiators have made "progress" attempting to end the war between Russia and Ukraine, but ultimately "it's not our war."

<snip>

"It's not our war. It's a war on another continent.

Apparently, nobody has told the sweaty little muppet that South America is also a separate continent.

Add this to Xi's weird proclamation about Taiwan, and Trump doing everything he can to avoid helping Ukraine, and the picture becomes remarkably clear.

However, the fun bit starts when this arrangement falls apart, just like the original pact.

Thieves fall out.

Looking at things objectively, in all but two or three situations, we've been the baddies.
