It’s debatable if this action is a legal one, seeing that it’s Congress who must decide on waging war. But, seeing that Congress has been pretty much castrated by the orange crime administration, they are helpless to do anything anyway.
The best thing I can hope for from this is that mafia land gets angry at their White House gofer for doing this to their best buddy in South America. Maybe there’s a silver lining for Ukraine.
If Maduro has been kidnapped, it shows he has the brains of a goldfish.
The President of peace is now a kidnapper too. I have no problems with the US destroying the shithole, but not for the barefaced lie about drug smuggling.
So he’s helping Venezuela and Iran restore democracy, while simultaneously helping the most squalid, murderous dictator of the century who is himself from a heathen shithole, to snuff out democracy in Christian Ukraine.
The wiring of Krasnov’s brain is right out of whack.
All circuits in the little brain he has left over are burned out.
