We’re about to see “cop sliding a baggie of weed into a suspect’s coat” for international politics.
cops ‘found’ a dirty pipe screen in the trunk of my car one night… like… who the fuck would put a weed pipe in my trunk ever, much less lose the screen from it?
luckily the DA threw the case out because it was absolutely obviously bullshit
Nah, the DA threw it out because they knew it wouldn’t get a conviction.
The president declined to provide information on who owned the tanker or its destination when asked by a reporter.
Just being this transparently evil
Also
“We’ve just seized a tanker on the coast of Venezuela — a large tanker, very large, the largest one ever seized actually,” Trump said during a meeting in the Roosevelt Room at the White House.
This man’s brain is almost exclusively synonyms for the word “massive”
No further notes from the US in this article, but, “stateless vessel” is a heavy lifter here that gives any country “legal” authority to intercept it.
“What happens to the oil on the ship?”
“We keep it, I guess.”“Leave the gun, take the canned oil.”
Normal things, normal countries do.
Wtf? Can you do that? This sounds blatantly against international law.
US: I am the law
(Or at least the “rules based order” which the US keeps promoting over international law. Their rules that is.)
The rules based order: the US makes the rules and issues the orders.
You just grab them by the tanker, when you’re the rules based order/consensus, they let you do it.
poor cuba, so close to united states and their vaunted solidarity
