politics @lemmy.world•Senate sends bill to release Epstein files to Trump
8·25 days agoEveryone needs to temper their expectations on this. They have had them for a long time. They lie like a bad rug. They will have 100% redacted what is released. The only way we will ever see this is through a whistleblower and a leak.
Otherwise, Donny will die happy on a pile of your money smile on his face, and content in the fact that he will never see justice. Meanwhile, they will crucify the names they dont remove and they will drag it out and use it to persecute everyone they can find darker than Italian and not hypocritical Christian bullshit they claim to be. You LGBQ+, Muslim, Jewish, and anything else not white and evangelical are in for a mighty fine government-funded fucking.
I pray every night that I am wrong. Good luck out there, it’s going to get spicy.

6·1 month agoThe U.S. doesn’t run Venezuelan oil — it regulates who gets to touch it. The Treasury’s OFAC sanctions don’t control production; they choke the financial and logistical pipelines around it. That’s Washington’s leverage — not ownership, but gatekeeping. Venezuela nationalized its oil industry back in the 1970s, and PDVSA still owns every barrel that comes out of the ground.
Right now, the only American company still operating there is Chevron, and even they’re basically on probation. Their projects run under a temporary OFAC license that can be pulled at any time, and they’re not allowed to pay the Maduro government directly. Everything has to go through a U.S.-approved escrow system.
Meanwhile, most of Venezuela’s actual oil exports move outside U.S. reach entirely — crude swapped through China, blended with Iranian condensate, shipped under flags of convenience on ghost fleets that never report their location. That’s not American control; that’s a global workaround to avoid it.
So yeah, the U.S. has influence — financial choke points, compliance pressure, and the ability to turn Chevron’s tap on or off. But control? No. PDVSA owns the wells, China and Iran move the barrels, and OFAC just decides who’s allowed to touch the money.
Edit: Please, I encourage you to fact-check me. Informed decision-making is the key to equitable governance.

Cuellar isn’t stupid, with the way things are going and the guy running for the 28th on the red side he would be stupid to switch. No one is going to try and primary him.
