Lars Larson points out the situational ethics of American Democrats
Lars Larson
The Northwest Nonsense
Help me figure out the outrage of American Democrats after the removal and retrieval of Venezuelan dictator Nicholas Maduro to face charges in New York City this morning.
Venezuelans in America and here in Portland are celebrating.
And why not? Consider the bipartisan agreement on the need to prosecute this criminal. President Trump put a price on Maduro’s head of $15 million.
Joe Biden jacked up that reward to $25 million.
Then last year, Trump boosted it to $50 million.
Joe Biden refused to recognize Maduro as president of Venezuela.
But feckless Joe could not remove him.
President Trump changed all that with a skillfully executed mission for the U.S. Military that got the job done in less than three hours … in at 1 a.m. and out by 3:30 a.m.
Maduro was advised of his Miranda rights, and stood on American soil 14 hours later. He stood in front of a U.S. judge about an hour ago.
Something to celebrate? Not for liberals! Trump did it. It must be wrong.
Eighty days ago, liberals protested “No Kings”… and now they’re protesting the arrest and prosecution of a thieving dictator.
Go figure.
