In reply to the discussion: Top Republican Accuses Trump Admin of Keeping Congress In the Dark on Iran: 'They're Not Telling Us Things' [View all]popsdenver
(2,262 posts)18. Think about this:
"Trump is trying to extort Iran for oil, cash, land."
Venezuela has THE worlds largest oil reserves, with Iran Second and Russia third largest reserves...
Republicans declared war on Venezuela, and have illegally invaded and have literally taken over their country, by force, for the U.S. Oil companies......The Republicans have now turned control of Venezuela over to the U.S. Oil companies to run........SAME EXACT THING CHENEY DID IN IRAQ. After spending two trillion dollars on the war in IRAQ, Cheney divided up IRAQ, into six areas, each controlled by a U.S. Oil company.....
NOW, They want to wipe out the world's largest, major oil supplier, to eliminate competition.
We are seeing these other countries invaded, militarily crushed one by one, for the purpose of controlling the oil.........
Next up? How about Iceland, Greenland, Canada for their incredible amount of oil and other precious metals?????
Not sure why we have invaded Equador, putting a big bunch of our special forces on the ground there, which is not being talked alot about. Maybe just to help out their Dictator, who is wanting to stay in control, and a known Trump Lover.....
All of this crap happening is way way beyond Trump.........and is most likely the 2025 group, Uber Rich Republicans top 1%ers, and Republican Corporations......
The Republicans, who are truly running things, have told the Military Industrial Complex to do a major ramp up of the supply of weapons, particularly the rocket suppliers.
The Wealthy and Corporations have had their taxes cut to practically nothing and they are eliminating all the social programs, deeming them frivolous to better spend the tax money from us 99%ers on THEIR wars and other pet 2025 Projects....
