39. War is more important than your pocket book But
Wed Apr 15, 2026, 11:02 AM
Yesterday

Never more important than pedo Trump's pocket book. Which is the whole reason for this war and the war in Venezuela.

Pedo Trump is using the US military like a mob boss using muscle for an extortion racket centered around oil.

When he wanted in on the toll Iran will charge for passage through the strait of Hormuz, that gave the whole game away. He's doing this for more money he can stuff into his pockets. He's upping oil prices on purpose after beating up Venezuela and taking their oil. With higher oil prices, the price of American oil goes up and up and up. Lining pedo Trump's bulging gold lined pockets. A plan Putin is quite happy with.
