    Venezuela is being run by Rubio as a Banana Republic, except with oil. The president is talking openly about annexing us. Do the math.

      Yes, and Iran invasion, and Cuba blockade, etc…

      Again, we are not at open war (bullets flying, missiles dropping) for us to not care if centralization of power or when subverting parts of our democracy is happening.

      The premise of the post and article is centralization of power as if it’s wartime, and we’re not at active war.
