Sure sounds like a terrorist organisation.

Which is about right. Pre-9/11, the US's model of a "terrorist" was a white, 30 something, loser, guy - a Timothy McVeigh-type. Identical to 95% of ICE agents.

Maybe they should return to that model.

We are long past peak oil. Look I'm not saying we're not going to need oil long into the future and its use for aviation is currently unsurpassed but the argument is our reliance on oil is waning as newer technologies have come into play, especially in the power generation and automotive sectors. Chemical and plastic production is still vital and that can't be done without oil. We're not getting away from using it for a long tine but it's past it's peak.

What Dumpy forgets is supply and demand (because he's one of the worst business people ever) and releasing more oil into the market from his imperialist acquisitions means a drop in value - even the oil execs were apprehensive as to whether the takeover of Venezuela and being told they need to fix up their processing was a good thing as they don't want the market flooded as that will cause the cost of oil to plummet.

Thats because he's stuck in the 80s. It's common for people with dementia to fall back to a time they thought was good and for him, it was the 80s when oil was king.

I'd be happy with Nuremberg too, as they love fascism that much, lets give them another piece of it.

Democrats haven't sunk to that level at all. Wtf are you talking about. Dems have written strongly worded letters asking for violence to please stop, protested a bit and blown some whistles. Meanwhile MAGA and their paramilitary (ice) have gone around killing people. They are not the same.

Not suggesting violent retaliation, because that is what the right want - they're trying to provoke violence, but there are other non-violent disruptive behaviours that could be enacted

That was a choice by the Trump administration. They could have removed the entire cabinet if they wanted to. They probably, and I may be giving them more credit than they deserve, hoped that showing the remaining cabinet what could happen would mean they would do as Trump asked. Mob tactics.

Also they probably thought creating a power vacuum wouldn't help either because it never does. Ever. Ever ever. History has proved that SOO many times.

When the enemy has no morals or ethics, what do you do?

The US has always wanted puppet states in the Americas. Sure, she'd be beholden to the US, for now, but she may be better than the Maduro regime, and the people voted her in too.

That is a risk, but she's got to try something. Doing nothing is how the US got where it is now.
