President Donald Trump on Wednesday received updated military options for potential operations in Venezuela, including possible land strikes, according to CBS News. Senior defense leaders, including Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and Joint Chiefs Chairman Dan Caine, briefed the president on scenarios for the coming days.
No final decision has been made, CBS News reported, and neither the White House nor the Pentagon commented to the network.
The briefing came as the USS Gerald Ford carrier strike group entered the region and U.S. forces intensified recent strikes on vessels accused of drug smuggling.
Nothing says “I’m not planning to strike Venezuela” quite like bringing the world’s largest aircraft carrier to its shores.

Whelp, right on time with the Epstein files getting more tine in the news cycle.

This is a clear distraction away from the Epstein files and everyone should be able to see it as one.

Quick, let’s go to war so people can stop talking about Epstein!

Now would be an absolutely terrible time to consider military service.

The “peace president” is starting a war to distract you from his abuse of teenage girls.
Are we great yet?

Just like any other criminal potus would. Murder innocent people to distract from revelations that he IS IN FACT a pedophile. Eat your cake, conservatives, you evil hypocritical failures, anti-American scumbags.

‘Days’ like, around the time of the vote on the Epstein files?
We need to stop this man from murdering innocents. There has to be a way to stop this. This is going to result in massive loss of American lives and also massive loss of Venezuelan lives. This is an egregious abuse of power that no one should be supporting.

What happened to the Balls of the US Congress? They should all be thrown out for allowing the orange and the drunk to take us to war.

I knew he was going pull this shit. They are the little kid on the playground. Deny, Distract, Delay. Someone has to find a way to get this fella and his pedo friends and customers put away for good. Sooner than a few dais

Prepare for distraction upon distraction. It only gets worse from here.

Having to hide economic numbers, all of the emails coming out about him and what he knew about his best buddy Jeffrey Epstein, yeah this is on brand that he’s gonna try and make a distraction

I don’t know why anyone isn’t telling republicans that if they rebuke Donald, there is a good chance their constituents would gladly re-elect them.

The world is on a knife’s edge because the GOP won’t condemn nor stop their child raping predator of a leader.

He needs something to distract from the fact he’s a big pedo.

Epstein files are that bad, huh?

So we’ve gone from Canadian Bacon to Wag The Dog.
Nothing can hide the fact that Epstein is in the Trump files and we still haven’t seen the missing minutes of the Epstein murder tape!

Sounds like the Epstein vote is within days

This shit is so predictable anymore. Some of the first comments after the emails were released said Trump would do this. Now here we are, a day later. I can’t believe we are so collectively dumb as a country.

A child rapist now wants to kill children in other countries. This needs to be advertised on billboards.

I figured attacking Venezuela was how he was going to “Wag the Dog” to distract from Epstein vote. Funny enough, earlier this year a lot of conservatives were actually joining in with the dems push to for the release the Epstein Files, when all of a sudden, Charlie Kirk was killed by a “radical leftist” and conservatives forgot all about Epstein.

People are going to die because a pedophile doesn’t want to get caught. Not really surprised but usually the pedophile can’t order other people to die when the walls are closing in.

“Now that Obama’s poll numbers are in tailspin – watch for him to launch a strike in Libya or Iran. He is desperate.”

I called this. He’s going to do that to distract from Epstein. Yes he is that evil. He will attach Venezuela in order to stop people from talking about Epstein.
Red-little on
This man will literally put our entire country at war before admitting hes a diddler, even when the evidence is clear.
Bless all you Christian fascist for not only protecting a child rapist, but ruining the lives of millions of people in the process.
I’m sure Jesus is just so proud of your work to continue disparaging the poor, killing the innocent and putting innocent children in harms way, you’ve truly lost the entire fucking plot.

Just as soon as he most needs the distraction.

Epstein, Epstein, Epstein?
Epstein, Epstein, Epstein, Epstein. Epstein, Epstein? Epstein.
Gee wonder what he’s trying to distract from
Ah yes, the President of “no new wars.” He who was robbed of a Nobel Peace Prize.
I’m tired, boss. I just…how are we stuck in this fucking miserable timeline?
These strategies sure aren’t getting more subtle. God help us when they release the actual files. He’ll probably drop an A-bomb on Toronto.
Need to distract from the fact that there’s photos of him “blowing bubba” now, huh?

Welp…time to rewatch Wag the Dog I guess.
Those Epstein files are making him queasy as fuck
Doggy wagging

War. The ultimate distraction of pedophiles.
Venezuela isn’t a problem.
Raping underage girls is THE problem.
