U.S. President Donald Trump says he has called off a previously expected second wave of attacks on Venezuela, citing what he described as growing cooperation from the country’s leadership.
In an early-morning post, Trump said Venezuela had begun releasing large numbers of political prisoners as a sign it was seeking peace, a move he called “important and smart.”
He said the decision was also influenced by progress in joint efforts to rebuild and modernise Venezuela’s oil and gas infrastructure, adding that further military action now appeared unnecessary.
While U.S. ships will remain in position for ‘security reasons’, Trump said major oil companies are preparing to invest at least US$100 billion in the energy sector, with meetings scheduled at the White House to advance those plans.

Washington is now the defacto ruler of Venezuala. Soon to be the de facto ruler of the whole of South America and Canada as the Western Hemisphere takes shape. Then Greenland. https://voxday.net/2026/01/08/greenland-needs-americans/
China and Russia are content with that, having their eyes on territory closer to home.
They have tried this many times and many times, its eventually fizzled out. People don’t like invaders and as the old saying goes, “cities are the graveyards of armies”.
Lol. China and Russia are content with that are they? USA has kidnapped Maduro. They haven’t got rid of the military or militias.
The US rules nothing in Venezuela
In your dreams !!
Some asinine comment about “Zionism” in 3…2…
Increasing output will take years and billions of dollars in investment due to decayed infrastructure lack of maintenance and sanctions
And will be fraught with a whole raft of problems
Venezuela earned only $4.04 billion in oil export revenue in 2023, exporting about 550,000 barrels per day at an average price of $64.37
During the Chavez-era boom Venezuela earned over $90 billion per year from oil
The US wants to keep Venezuela on the leash as as economic slave to be manipulated exploited and abused
Portrayed as a political prisoner of conscience
Venezuela is being politically constrained punished and controlled by the United States in a way that signifies unjust coercion
Being punished for ideological reasons in striving for self determination freedom and the constraints imposed through US imperialism and overreach
Correct. It will take a long time to gain financially from Venezuelan crude which is challenging to process. I personally think this is ideological, mixed with a good measure of hubris. The US is trying to save face but at what cost?
Venezuela is free from a dictator, his oppression and communism, and they are celebrating in the streets. I think you missed these parts.
So why us the Maduro government still in power Michelle? Why too has the US chosen leader not been welcomed with open arms by the cheering people (who are not even in Venezuela BTW)?
When you have a big bully sanctioning your country it usually makes those things arise.
Trump another day
Which could be different tomorrow
Sigh
Well, this could be for 2 other reasons.
1. He got the message from the hypersonic strike in Lyiv for what alot of people say was retaliation for the UK/USA involvement in trying to assassinate Putin at his residence and is now walking back his bravado, or,
2. This is his usual 2 faced announcement before a second strike happens.
I don’t think Trump would really care
He is an old man nearing the end of His useful life
And showing increasing signs of cognitive dissonance
On drugs or heavily mind controlled?
I don’t think Trump would really care about who he takes down with Him
He sees Himself as some sort of conduit to the most High
And has surrounded Himself with those who heap praise upon and adulate the Great Caligula
Can you guys show me where on the doll the evil Orange man hurt you? 🧸
On the subject of abused youngsters, whats happening with this Epstein business? Any elites going to be brought to trial anytime soon or is it just innocent heads of state the US goes after?
They brainwashed zombie. TV tells them what to think.
Irony is wasted on you, isn’t it Michelle?
Says the one who believes ALL the videos of people celebrating Maduros kidnapping are real.
Some may be, others are totally fake.
Multiple videos being shared are fake or old footage, some from other countries.
Same goes for ones purporting to show Iranian protests
Question every video
While U.S. ships will remain in position for ‘security reasons’,
Translation, intimidation and stand over tactics.A nation run by thieves and goons…….
Ha Ha, you are all idiot’s.
Trump’s a big fat chicken.
