The things are the way they are because they are supposed to be that way. All of this was nothing more than annoyance to the way things are.

Maya Rudolph hits Trump at Oscars: 'Mexico is not paying for the wall'

It didn’t take long for a President Trump-related quip to be delivered at the Academy Awards, with Maya Rudolph hitting the commander-in-chief within the first minute of the broadcast.

“Just a quick update for everybody in case you’re confused,” the actress and former “Saturday Night Live” cast member said at the start of Sunday’s awards show in Hollywood.

“There is no host tonight,” Rudolph, 46, told the crowd as she stood alongside comedians Amy Poehler and Tina Fey. “There won’t be a popular movie category. And Mexico is not paying for the wall."

The Oscars: Where rich, elite, celebrities go to eat each others' asses while they think everyone else is begging to watch the orgy.

Categorically different. Venezuela is in our hemisphere and matters to us. + they have a lot of oil and hot women. Syria has very little oil and no hot women

Syria was about the logistics of oil. Venezuela is about raw supply since they have more oil in the ground than Saudi Arabia at the moment, so this might change the geopolitical atmosphere more than people realize. It doesn't help that Maduro is demanding a shibboleth of greed instead of taking an exile bargain and walking away with a billion plus (likely) dollars US. The US could command the oil supply of half the planet if we play our cards right.

Elliot Abrams, John Bolton, and some Neoliberal-educated stooge with 23% popularity. Is that playing our cards right?

This whole thing is very half-assed. Must come from Trump directly.

I think we should do it, guys.

Think of all the oil we wouldn't benefit from.

Oh sorry, I shouldn't be so negative. We would at least get a new Chipotle or something in the neighborhood.

Definitely worth the lives of my friends and family.

Distraction from Cohen's congressional testimony? That's the NK summit in Vietnam. This game has been playing since Chavez took over Venezuela.
