Retired General Wesley Clark said Congress needs to get to investigate whether US forces were ordered to kill two survivors of a strike on a suspected drug-smuggling vessel and press the administration on its objectives in threatening Venezuela.

[President] Donald Trump said Sunday [11/30/2025] that people shouldn’t read much into a social media post where he said Venezuelan airspace should be considered closed.
His post from Saturday morning, addressed to airlines and “Drug Dealers,” added to jitters in the region about possible US strikes on Venezuelan territory.
“Don’t read anything into it,” he told reporters Sunday aboard Air Force One. He added, “We consider Venezuela to be not a very friendly country.”
The US is enacting a widening campaign in the Caribbean, one that began with fatal strikes on boats in international waters and continued when the US deployed additional Navy ships, including an aircraft carrier, to the region, adding to speculation it may be about to strike Venezuela.
Trump confirmed he held a phone call recently with President Nicolas Maduro but declined to describe how it went. “I wouldn’t say it went well or badly,” he said.
He also downplayed concerns from Republican lawmakers about a potentially illegal fatal strike on a damaged boat in the Caribbean.

1. I just don't have any idea if crime will be viewed as crime again

Crime is patriotic now. I keep looking for courses such as "How to Embezzle what YOU Really Need".
