And if we look five or 10 years down the road, these are some of the people that are going to have a big stake in the different Venezuelan industries, whether it's oil, natural resources like gold and ore and iron and so forth, or other things, running their electrical grid and stuff.
Yeah, I think that's what it's boiled down to.
And I hate to say that as an American, but I think that our president, that's basically where he's at.
Yeah, I mean, so, you know, a little bit of recent background.
Along with Jim McGovern and Thomas Massey, a Republican from Kentucky, the three of us led a resolution, a war powers resolution, to try to force President Trump to come to Congress, get permission if he was going to do any of this, any kind of land strikes, land invasion.
So forth.
And so it was a bipartisan resolution.
And we even picked up a few Republicans.
But we lost the vote, I think, 213 to 211.
And so we lost by two votes.
It was a close vote.
But after that, then obviously around the new year, Donald Trump goes ahead and launches that invasion.
And you're right.
I mean, since then, he's just become more problematic because he's talking about, OK, we may go do Colombia.
We may do Mexico.
Stephen Miller's out there ranting about Greenland again.

The Monroe Doctrine was basically a declaration that
you know, the world's power is gonna protect certain spheres of their territorial backyard.
And so for the United States, that included the Western hemisphere in Latin America.
