Democrats Suddenly Discover 'Illegal' US Intervention
The Guardian excitedly reports Democrats are 'decrying' Trump's military raid on Venezuela, calling it 'wildly illegal' due to lack of congressional approval. This sudden concern for international law and sovereignty is touching, especially when one recalls the bipartisan cheerleading for coups, sanctions, and destabilization efforts that paved the way for such interventions globally. The US has,
for decades, unilaterally imposed its will, from funding the Contras to drone strikes, largely without the 'prior notification' these same lawmakers now demand. One might ask, where was this outrage when the Biden administration sanctioned Venezuelan oil or when countless other nations faced regime change operations greenlit by both parties? It seems 'wildly illegal' only applies when the puppet
master isn't pulling your preferred strings. The theater of moral indignation is truly captivating.
