What a joke of a headline. The "mixed" reaction referenced is that they interviewed two residents of Puerto Rico.

CBS is maga news now

Imagine dying in a Venezeulan jungle because your boss didn't want people to know that he gave a blowjob to a horse.

I'm sure all that oil as nothing to do with it. Dude just wants democracy

I think they're lying about drugs this time instead of spreading democracy. Maybe both?

Pikachu face.

Who the fuck outside of the Trump administration and the CIA actually thinks this is a good idea???

On the other hand, even asking that question, makes me realize I should probably already know that by the point a CIA coup has successfully installed a leader, those are the only opinions that matter anymore anyway.

Sigh. This is it. What it was always building towards all along, while we let ourselves be lulled into a false sense of security and the belief that it couldn't happen here.

All those time the rest of the world tried to warn us that we probably should be keeping an eye on the agencies of men with vibes that smack of "I disappeared my last 2 families, and now I'm on my 3rd." What could they possibly be planning? What do they intend to do with all that limitless money they keep hoarding with no oversight? Surely nothing nefarious, so just shut the fuck up so we can all keep listening to Lee Greenwood on loop. 🫡🇺🇸

Everything that came before, all the other democracies overthrown and generations of lives ruined in foreign nations, that was practice. A dress rehearsal leading up to the big show.

They've finally gotten those pesky bureaucrats and judges out of their way, and gotten rid of all those protections for civil rights and liberties. Finally, they truly have the entire United States at their disposal: the press, the people, the economy, the military, the nuclear codes, and the top secret information about our allies. There's no more rules or regulations. Nothing is left standing in their way. Nothing to hold us back and keep America from finally being all that it can be.

Guess there's really nothing left for us to do except buckle up, and relax. Our captains have got this, and they're about to make this baby fly like an eagle 🦅
