as Maduro Scrambles

Original Article

Posted By: FlyRight, 9/7/2025 5:39:32 PM

President Donald Trump attended the U.S. Open on Sunday, and as he was flying to the tennis match from the White House, a reporter asked a question that's been on many of our minds over the last few weeks: "Are you considering attacking the cartels inside of Venezuela?" The president's short response was cryptic, but it suggested that something could be on the horizon: "Well, you're going to find out." As I reported on Friday, Venezuela's illegitimate president, Nicolás Maduro, flew two of his regime's aircraft close to one of the United States Navy warships currently patrolling the southern Caribbean Sea near Venezuela's borders.

Maduro will end up like Hitler, moving his fake armies around on the map. Going nowhere and defeating no one. Will he also shoot himself?

Was the Navy prevented from shooting down the two Maduro regime aircraft that flew close to one of our warships?

It's more than likely that Nicky will wake up one morning around 3 AM to the sound of American armaments blasting his Navy and Air Force into scrap metal. Whatever weaponry he had, to keep his neighbors at bay, will be rendered useless, thereby exposing Nicky to plenty of taunts and jeers from neighbors and political unease within his despotic regime. Within weeks Nicky will be witnessed fleeing for Cuba, or some African hellhole, carting plenty of his nation's "assets" with him.

Drug money was Venezuela's easiest source of income ever since they messed up their oil industry. We could and should drop the hammer on them at any time.

Woe to the British, particularly the British who are actually British and are today being forced by their ruling class to be unwilling cattle subject to the unrestrained exploitation, looting, and raping of the Third World barbarians their betters imported. There’s a lot of raping going on, and the real problem seems to be that normal British people don’t want their daughters raped. But their rulers do; it’s reasonable to assume that you want the foreseeable consequences of your actions.

Britain's ambassador to the United States will use a keynote speech today to underline the UK-US special relationship - while also attempting to 'Reform-proof' his own struggling government. Lord Mandelson, the architect of New Labour, master of political spin and now Britain's man in Washington, will use the 2025 annual lecture at Ditchley Park to offer a positive spin on a presidency which has proudly upended norms and frayed alliances.In the speech, parts of which have been released in advance, Mandelson will describe President Trump as a "risk taker" with an "iron-clad stomach". Lord Mandelson was chosen as ambassador by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer late last year.

Going back to the glory days of Tammany Hall, New York has had some wacky mayoral elections. But it would be a tall order to find any that surpassed the current race for its zigs and zags and sheer weirdness. The off-the-charts distinctions feature the president of the United States playing the role of Boss Tweed by using the power of the purse and naked patronage to try to shape the field of candidates and pick the winner. The Republican president is upfront about his aim of denying a November victory to Zohran Mamdani, a radical socialist who won the Democratic Primary.

The Los Angeles Police Department has pulled its cops from a security detail at Kamala Harris’ Brentwood, California home after outrage that crime-fighting units were being diverted to guard the former vice president. A dozen Metro Division officers had been stationed outside Harris’ mansion after President Trump revoked her Secret Service protection last week, ending an extension through which had been quietly granted by President Biden. By Saturday, the backup was gone, sources told the Los Angeles Times. LAPD Metro Division officers were seen outside Harris’ Brentwood mansion earlier this week before the city pulled the plug on the temporary detail.

Three active cases of tuberculosis have popped up in Maine, following an increase of the disease in the United States since 2020 — most of it among those not born in the U.S. — after three decades of decline, national data reveals. Lindsay Hammes, spokesperson for the Maine Center for Disease Control, told the Portland Press Herald that the agency was “aware of three active TB cases with links to the Greater Portland area and is in the midst of conducting our typical response.” She added that the cases do not appear be transmitted between those three persons and each came from a separate source.

Top CEOs and tech leaders have jumped at the chance to be in President Trump’s good graces, a theme of the second administration that was on display in the State Dining room on Thursday night. The president’s economic policies, between sweeping tariffs, instability at the Federal Reserve and unemployment ticking up, have led to headaches in the business community but it has also served as a major incentive for CEOs to get face time with Trump. Aside from help navigating new global trade relations and the volatile stock market,

Since the very microsecond in 2015 when billionaire builder and TV star Donald Trump descended the escalator in NY City’s splendiferous Trump Tower with his gorgeous wife Melania by his side and pronounced his candidacy as a Republican for the presidency of the United States of America, each and every leftist, liberal, progressive (LLP] from all over the world went insane. A big part of that insanity was fear. After a 15-year run hosting the mega-successful TV show The Apprentice, candidate Trump’s adversaries knew that they were up against a guy with not only international name recognition as an innovative real estate developer, but also brains, an Ivy League education,

Trump’s greatest achievement within six months was simply ending illegal immigration as we had once known it—without “comprehensive immigration reform” or any other rhetorical trickery. It remains difficult to find, much less deport, the 10 to 12 million illegal aliens who entered in the last four years. Those who helped break the law, by design or indifference, now believe it was moral to destroy federal immigration law but immoral to uphold it. And it is still unclear whether Joe Biden’s handlers deliberately sabotaged their own border for political and demographic purposes out of sheer orneriness or utter incompetence. Many of the left’s cherished totems—massive Green New Deal subsidies,

It doesn’t matter what is in this documentary or if anyone ever sees it. It will not finish off Trump. Here is why: I spent the last year examining the six major “lawfare” cases against President Trump in between his two presidential administrations, and the E. Jean Carroll case was easily the most absurd on its face. Key details: in 2019, advice columnist and former Saturday Night Live writer E. Jean Carroll wrote an account in New York magazine alleging that Donald Trump sexually assaulted her in a Bergdorf Goodman department store dressing room in 1995. Or maybe it was 1996. She can’t exactly remember.

The former Delaware senator turned vice president turned one-term president has put together a group of “former aides, friends, and political allies” to begin the extensive fundraising effort and locate a specific location, the Associated Press reported Saturday. However, as the wire service pointed out, “Biden’s library team has the daunting task of raising money for the 46th president’s legacy project at a moment when his party has become fragmented about the way ahead and many big Democratic donors have stopped writing checks.” President Donald Trump’s persistent reminders about the failures of the Biden administration also exacerbate the challenge.

Starmer brought in his "loyal friends" on Friday in a sweeping reshuffle intended to restore his authority after the resignation of his deputy, Angela Rayner. After reshaping his Downing Street team last week to bolster his economic advice, a ministerial reshuffle had been expected.

President Trump, on August 11 signed an executive order declaring a “crime emergency” and invoking powers under section 740 of the DC Home Rule Act to federalize the police.

Stephen King seems to have replaced his talent for weaving chilling tales with an unhealthy obsession with Donald Trump and his supporters. Instead of focusing on novels, King has turned himself into yet another left-wing pundit who just happens to have a long list of bestsellers on his résumé. And while his books used to inspire genuine fear, his political predictions are now nothing more than laughable, partisan nonsense. His latest declaration is so ridiculous, it proves just how consumed he’s become with Trump Derangement Syndrome. According to King, years from now, many Americans who voted for Donald Trump will deny ever having done so.

Late last week NBC ran a “news” story featuring a dozen disgruntled federal judges whose rulings against various Trump administration policies have been stayed or overturned by the Supreme Court. These lower court judges, none of whom had the courage to allow NBC to name them in the article, bewailed the failure of SCOTUS to provide sufficient justification for ruling against them. It’s blindingly obvious, however, that the real issue they are whining about is the Court’s refusal to countenance their usurpation of the President’s Article II powers and frustrate implementation of his agenda.

"Such killings now, when real diplomacy could have already begun long ago, are a deliberate crime and a prolongation of the war," Zelenskiy said in a post on X, issuing a fresh appeal \

The many migrant deaths were admitted by author Paola Ramos in a report from Panama: [Venezuelan migrant] Edinson is part of a growing trend of “reverse migration” emerging throughout the American continent. A year ago, this movement would have been unimaginable. In 2024, during the Joe Biden administration, more than 300,000 north-bound migrants traversed the Darién Gap.
