All those in Latin America disappointed a US intervention in #Venezuela looks unlikely, please tell me how many Latin-American heads of state have backed an intervention. Not even the Venezuelan opposition can get behind the idea, so how can you expect the gringos to do it?

Sad: Americans of modest means handed over their money, only for it to be swindled. Jared Kushner “approved the creation of a campaign shell company that secretly paid the president’s family members and spent almost half of the campaign’s $1.26 billion war chest.”
@emeriticus

Half a billion dollars disappeared from the Trump campaign's war chest, money that was supposed to go toward getting Trump reelected. At the center of it appears to be Brad Parscale and a shell company incorporated in Delaware connected to Jared Kushner.
