Looming disaster – The Grayzone live

Max Blumenthal and Francisco Rodriques discusses Venezuela’s oil privatization deal with Francisco Rodriguez. It is gunpoint diplomacy and not gunboat diplomacy mentions Francisco Rodriques. Max mentions that he broke the story of the indictment that is hanging over Delcy Rodriques’ head. And the deal? Everything is wrong with this deal and everything is opaque, excepting one big criminal, Betancourt, takes the stage. Max mentions that it resembles the mass privatiztion of Russia in the 1990’s.

This is rare sensible commentary and journalism on Venezuela. Max mentions that this is what is planned for the rest of Latin American and the Caribbean (Monroe/Donroe plan). I have been talking about this since Trump’s 2nd inauguration speech where he announced that the US is an empire, and empires grow, and since the term “our hemisphere” appeared.

Francisco Rodriques makes some comparisons with Cuba and with the Dominican Republic and brings this around to why the region is so antagonistic against the US. At the end of the day this is what is being planned for the countries that are not already ‘in the bag’. A loot and plunder fest is in full swing, as the US cannot maintain itself without looting and plunder and they have to kill, to put the scare and fear on anyone else. So with their last strength they denude and then destroy any sovereignty of any country. Sheer old style harsh inculcated colonialism is planned for the Latin Americas.

In the second part, Aaron Mate returns and the discussion is about the calls from Israel First members of Congress and Laura Loomer’s “investigation” of Blumenthal as the US war on Iran, the US economy and Trump’s approval ratings continue to flounder.
