In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

martinlongman.substack.com - Trump wants plunder not regime change

Asked how things are going to work out in Iran, President Trump told CNN, “It’s gonna work very easily. It’s going to work like it did in Venezuela. We have a wonderful leader there. She’s doing a fantastic job. And it’s going to work like in Venezuela.”

It took mere seconds for reporter Sophie Brams of The Hill to suffer cognitive dissonance.

President Trump praised interim Venezuelan President Delcy Rodríguez amid reports that his administration was threatening to indict her if she did not continue to cooperate with the U.S.

Trump said Delcy Rodriguez is doing “a fantastic job,” possibly because Venezuela's state-owned mining company, Minerven, on Monday “inked a multimillion-dollar deal to sell as many as 1,000 kilograms of gold destined for U.S. markets.” U.S. Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum arrived in Caracas immediately thereafter “with a couple dozen representatives of American mining companies and other firms in tow.”
