    This won’t end badly at all.

    Donald Trump has confirmed he has authorised the CIA to conduct covert operations inside Venezuela.

    It all depends on how large a distraction he needs from the shitshow at home, I'd imagine.

    The admiral who leads U.S. military forces in Latin America will step down at the end of this year, two years ahead of schedule, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced on Thursday, in a surprise move amid escalating tensions with Venezuela.

    A source familiar with the matter told Reuters that there had been tension between Admiral Alvin Holsey and Hegseth over operations in the Caribbean and questions about whether he would be fired in the days leading up to the announcement.

    The top Democrat on the Senate Armed Services Committee, Senator Jack Reed, called Holsey's unexpected resignation troubling given mounting fears of a potential U.S. confrontation with Venezuela.

    "Admiral Holsey's resignation only deepens my concern that this administration is ignoring the hard-earned lessons of previous U.S. military campaigns and the advice of our most experienced warfighters," Reed said in a statement.

    How much you wanna bet they’re planning an invasion, and he’s resigning because he wants no parts of the bullsh*t and is unwilling to carry out orders fighting another senseless war?

    They need to stop resigning. Weve seen so many officials resign and release some statement patting themselves on the back. Nobody in the public gives a **** unfortunately. They will be replaced by a psycho MAGA loyalist. Stay in the trenches and fight and leak to reporters

    No more wars indeed. Sort of reminds me of when Obama gave the CIA order to overthrow the Syrian government. It took 12 years and working hand in hand with Jihadists and ISIS, but they finally succeeded a few months ago.

    It is estimated that we spent 14 trillion dollars on wars in the Middle East largely motivated by crazy neo-cons and Israel. The result nothing much helpful to the USA.

    128.7 million households into 14 trillion is 109,000 plus dollars per household
