Panama?He seems to be waiting for the Panama Supreme Court. BlackRock offered some $22B to buy several ports, including the two in Panama, from Hutchison. But someone sued, complaining Hutchison was not fulfilling it's contract with Panama. That contract issue is what the court is deliberating. Having Panama throw Hutchison out would probably be cheaper than BlackRock buying the ports. But Trump the American Colossus would probably want control of the actual access to the canal, as that would give him another means to extort other countries. Right now, in spite of Trump the Perfect's claims, Panama is actually running the canal, not China.
There is no quick profit for Trump in taking over Cuba. The US economy gets along just fine without Cuban cane sugar. In fact, flooding the US with Cuban sugar would make the corn lobby foam at the mouth.
Shutting off oil imports from Canada would be the fastest way for God's Gift to the World, Trump to line his pockets, as well as his paymaster's in big oil, while trying to teach Carney a lesson for snubbing the Pirate King's bribe laundering scheme.
Of course, bombing Kharg Island with that big fleet he was bragging about yesterday, is another option.
Apparently, the fix was in, before the Maduro snatch operation.
Venezuela’s Delcy Rodríguez assured US of cooperation before Maduro’s capturehttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/jan/22/delc...Rodriguez will visit the US soon. She is in the process of pushing legislation through the Venezuelan legislature to give US oil companies near total autonomy in how they operate in Venezuela.
Venezuela’s interim president to visit US amid deepening oil tieshttps://www.france24.com/en/americas/20260122-vene...Documents show that Venezuela's proposed oil-reform will give companies operating autonomy and cash proceeds to companies.https://www.worldenergynews.com/news/documents-sho...I would not be surprised if Trump the God demands a huge equity stake in PDVSA, so he can steal part of that company's income, while his big oil paymasters are fattening their own pockets off of Venezuela.
