"I have never seen the US government arrive in a desert to plant life. They always arrive to destroy."

Venezuela’s Acting President Delcy Rodríguez gave a master class on US sanctions policy in 2024 She connected it directly to Palestine:
“The genocide against Palestine is an extension of the same policy—the destruction of humanity, exterminating peoples so that speculative capital survives.”

What she said:
The US controls SWIFT, the international financial messaging system.
Every global transaction flows through it.
One button excludes any country.
The hegemon uses unilateral coercive measures, so-called ‘sanctions’, as a means of extortion against countries that do not obey its instructions.

  • 26,000+ unilateral sanctions exist worldwide.
  • 31 countries sanctioned—representing 28% of world population and 72% of Earth’s territory.
  • 96% of sanctions are concentrated on 10 countries.
    Mostly oil and energy producers essential for the development of humanity.
  • Venezuela lost access to 77% of its international correspondent banks “in one second”.
  • 99% drop in national income.
  • $232 billion in lost oil production.
  • $700 billion total economic damage which is comparable to WWII bombing of Germany and France.

The US State Department stated in 2018:
“Our sanctions forced Venezuela to default…
We are seeing total collapse.
Our policy works.”

  • CITGO was seized.
  • $22 billion in assets frozen.
  • Venezuelan gold stolen by Bank of England “because we don’t know who the government is”.

The US-appointed “president” of Venezuela’s Central Bank lives in Miami and runs a hamburger business.
This is who they claimed should control Venezuela’s gold reserves.

"International law does not govern.
The only thing that governs is barbarism."

We must stand up to Donald Trump’s gangster politics.

Instead, over Venezuela, the Prime Minister has again abandoned any pretence of defending international law in a shameful attempt to appease Trump.

That weak approach to Trump will leave us all in a far more dangerous world.

Going on quietly now behind the curtains of the Trump White House.

Emerging details of the selection of Elliott Investment Management (led by Paul Singer) as the winning bidder in a 2024 court-mandated auction for CITGO, Venezuela’s key U.S.-based oil refiner and a subsidiary of state-owned PDVSA.

Elliott’s affiliate, Amber Energy, offered $7.286 billion for PDV Holding (CITGO’s parent), which was below CITGO’s estimated $11-13 billion valuation at the time.

The auction stemmed from $21.3 billion in creditor claims against Venezuela, primarily from arbitration awards following defaults and expropriations.

Key points include Elliott’s history as a “vulture fund” specializing in distressed assets (e.g., profiting $2.4 billion from Argentina’s debt crisis), ongoing legal hurdles like PDVSA 2020 bondholder claims, and U.S.

Treasury approval requirements amid non-recognition of the Maduro government.
The Maduro administration called it “the theft of the century,” but couldn’t effectively contest it in U.S. courts due to diplomatic isolation.
The sale was projected to finalize in mid-2025.

Subsequent developments show the bid was reduced to $5.9 billion by late 2025, with a U.S. judge approving the sale in November 2025 despite appeals from Venezuela and rival bidder Gold Reserve.

The deal was set to close in early 2026, pending regulatory nods and resolution of challenges.

Regarding Paul Singer ..(..yes, he is a major donor to the MAGA KY super PAC, which has spent over $1.5 million opposing Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) in his 2026 primary..).

Singer contributed $1 million , alongside $250,000 from John Paulson and $750,000 from a PAC tied to Miriam Adelson.

The effort targets Rep: Massie’s anti-interventionist stances, including opposition to foreign aid and war powers expansions, aligning with Singer’s pro-Israel and hawkish donor profile.

Singer also gave $1 million to Trump’s inaugural fund.

Singer stands to gain significantly from the January 3, 2026, U.S. military operation in Venezuela (“Operation Absolute Resolve”), which captured Nicolás Maduro on drug trafficking charges and involved airstrikes.

Trump stated the U.S. would temporarily “run the country” to enable a transition and "get the oil flowing."
This intervention directly addresses obstacles to the CITGO sale:

  • It neutralizes Venezuelan appeals and resistance, as the U.S. now effectively controls the country and its assets during the transition.
  • It reduces legal and operational risks for Elliott, such as bondholder disputes or Maduro-era claims of fraud, potentially accelerating Treasury/OFAC approvals.
  • CITGO’s value could rise under stable U.S.-backed management, with improved access to Venezuelan crude (..historically a key feedstock..) and reduced sanctions-related disruptions.

Elliott’s undervalued purchase positions Singer for substantial upside.
The $5.9 billion acquisition cost is well below prior valuations.
If CITGO stabilizes and trades or operates at $11-13 billion (or higher amid global oil demand), profits could exceed $5-7 billion pre-tax, depending on resale timing, operational efficiencies, and market conditions.

Elliott’s stakes in refiners like Marathon Petroleum and Phillips 66 could yield synergies, amplifying gains.

Speculation in media and analyses links the action to benefiting GOP donors like Singer, given Trump’s donor ties and focus on Venezuelan oil amid the “war on drugs” rationale.
(.. Trump conflict of Interest ..???)

This aligns with Singer’s distressed-asset strategy, turning a fraught deal into a windfall via geopolitical shifts.

However, appeals and international backlash could delay closure.

Trump , his Family and his Billioneer Oil Cronies are looking to make a quick buck

But the People of Venezuela are saying NO …!!! :angry: :fire:

The Drug Cartel supposed to be under the control of President Nicholas Maduro does not exist …!!
