The United States said it will carry out military flights in Guyana on Thursday in a joint operation as the South American country faces soaring tensions with neighboring Venezuela over a contested oil-rich region.

"In collaboration with the Guyana Defence Force, the U.S. Southern Command will conduct flight operations within Guyana on December 7," the American embassy in Guyana said in a statement, noting the flights are part of "routine engagement" to enhance a security partnership between the two countries.

“ I thought all the military aged Venezuelan men were in NYC robbing bodegas.”

I think I’ll give Mayorkas a call and see what the “Venezuelan military-aged illegal alien” total is. I’m sure he knows. He is the head of Homeland Security, after all.

We can fight a five front war:

—Ukraine/Russia

—China/Taiwan

—Iran

—Israel/Gaza

—Venezuela/Guyana

while ignoring the invaders on our southern border.

What could possibly go wrong?


You forgot North Korea, Kosovo, and Syria.

“Joint exercises should including the British!”

The Brits were at Tradewinds 23 in July. This is a separate exercise for the US and Guyana. More or less to demonstrate to the communist vermin in Caracas that they’re not so far away that we can’t reach them.

Let me guess. If 60 billion can’t get approved for Ukraine, then Guyana will need the 60 billion....

Enough with these symbolic gestures. Time to tell Venezuela that any attempt to seize Guyana will be met with overwhelming force.

You are a tickle, who ignores the Democrats long standing support for communist nations. That is until they realized greater wealth & power to be obtained by forcing the rich to submit to them with threats of violence or if available, blackmail.

You are so gullible, even when faced with indisputable evidence that they do not care about freedom. They actually hate freedom, because tyranny offers them so much more control, as well as, protection for them to operate openly with their criminality.

One false move and we should drop something right on top of that fountain in the middle of Maduro’s Miraflores Palace!

I think you have hit it; IMO, Russia and China are stirring up conflicts around the world to over stretch our military, knowing we have a brain damaged POTUS.

After the Venezuela/Guyana situation gets fired up, look for the turmoil to extend into the USA with internal conflict.

We have wide open border with thousands of military age men coming into the country, we have a Presidential election next year, the Russians and Chinese are not stupid, they know Biden could be voted out next year and the next President might not be so to easy roll over.

If you are Russia and China and you want to make major moves around the world, 2024 is your year to get it done, 2024 could be a very interesting year.

It appears that the Disastrous Joe Biden Administration is going to make the movie 🎥🍿 a reality. War, war everywhere.

Hope the Democrats are happy. Hello Jamie Lee Curtis?

This has absolutely nothing to do with commies, or right and wrong.
