This is absolutely insane! #Venezuela currently has 303 billion barrels of crude oil reserves, which #Trump says the #US now controls. #Oil prices are trading at ~$57/barrel, making Venezuela's total reserves worth $17.3 TRILLION. Even if the US sells this oil for HALF of the market rate, that's still $8.7 TRILLION. In other words, in 12 hours, the US has gained control of oil reserves worth more than the entire #GDP of ALL countries in the world, aside from the US and #China. That's 4 TIMES larger than the GDP of #Japan. Most people do not realize how much the world just changed. Oil markets will react to this news for the first time on Sunday at 6 PM ET. #Maduro #Caracas #gold #Silver #bitcoin 🥫 t.me/FinancialWorldUpdates

💥🇺🇸🇻🇪 The #AI War Is Here: Why the U.S. Struck #Venezuela Tonight’s dramatic military action in Venezuela—the bombing of key sites in #Caracas and the capture of Nicolás #Maduro—is being framed in real-time as a "restoration of democracy." But the deeper, unspoken driver is the new Great Game: the AI #energy war. The #2025 U.S. National Security Strategy explicitly links energy abundance with AI supremacy. Training next-gen AI models requires energy on the scale of small countries. Whoever controls abundant, scalable energy controls the pace of AI advancement. Here’s the strategic calculus: 1. Denial of Resource: Venezuela holds the world’s largest proven #oil reserves. It also has massive natural #gas reserves and significant hydroelectric power potential. Both #Russia and #China have invested considerably in Venezuela’s energy sector. Taking out Maduro would allow the #US to monopolize these resources for itself, while denying them to its rivals. 2. Securing #Guyana ’s Future: With Maduro removed, Venezuela’s territorial claim over Guyana’s vast new oil fields is likely to fade away. This not only protects ExxonMobil/Chevron assets but ensures another massive, friendly- #energy zone is locked into the U.S.-aligned sphere. Stability here is critical for long-term energy planning.

Seems to be easier to arrest the president of a sovereign country ( #Maduro , #Venezuela ) than corrupt #US politicians(insider trading etc.), fraudsters (Big Pharma, #Wallstreet etc) and child abusers ( #Epstein List, etc).

🇻🇪🇺🇸 To put the situation into perspective: 1. #Venezuela has: 🛢 – the world's largest proven #oil reserves, amounting to approximately 303.8 billion barrels as of 2021. For comparison, Saudi Arabia has an estimated 267 billion barrels, and Kuwait has 101.5 billion barrels. American refineries are designed specifically for Venezuelan heavy oil. ⛽️ – in 2021, the country's proven natural gas reserves exceeded 5.6 trillion cubic meters. In the Western Hemisphere, only the United States had more reserves. 🪨 – Venezuela's total iron ore reserves are estimated at 4.5 billion tons. In terms of iron reserves, the country is second only to Brazil in the region. + Venezuela has some of the world's largest reserves of bauxite, an ore used to produce aluminum. The country's total bauxite reserves amount to 950 million tons. 2. #Caracas is a military and political partner and ally of #Beijing, #Tehran, #Moscow, and even #Ankara. 3. The events, other than those in Venezuela, are primarily directed against 🇨🇳 #China. Current events rank alongside the war on #Russia n oil, protests in #Iran, and events in the Middle East as a whole. 4. 🇮🇷 The attack on Venezuela occurred on January 3 – the sixth anniversary of the assassination of Qasem Soleimani, commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, in Iraq, on #Trump 's orders.

#Venezuela #Maduro US-military-industrial-sheisters won't get away with that. Some UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES will soon arive. If such an act can happen, no leader (elected/unelected) is safe anymore. The world must confess YOU CAN NOT NEGOTIATE WITH THE EMPIRE of LIES. ONLY POWER PLAY. Hit them with thousand cuts. Whereever they are. Don't accept their currency (backed by violence). If you accept their stinking Dollars, you'll finance your own occupation. Buy #gold, #silver & #bitcoin if you can. Achieve technological independence from them. Achieve energetic independence and military/protective independence! Otherwise your people & culture will be extinct in a matter of few generations. Sent from the East German trenches. ✌️

Medieval "Cantillon Effect". "If the increase of actual money comes from gold or silver mines which are found in a State, the owner of these mines, the entrepreneurs, the smelters, the refiners, and all the other workers will increase their expenses in proportion to their profits. They will consume in their households more meat, wine, or beer than before, they will accustom themselves to wear better clothes, finer linen, to have more furnished houses and other more exquisite conveniences of life."
