Trump hails ‘historic’ deal for US to control 65bn barrels of Venezuela’s oil

The US has reached a deal with Venezuela to control more than 65 billion barrels of its proven oil reserves, President Donald Trump announced.

“This Historic Transaction MORE THAN DOUBLES American Oil Reserves, greatly increases our Oil Supply, and will substantially lower Gas Prices for all Americans,” Trump posted on social media.

Venezuela’s interim President, Delcy Rodriguez, hailed the agreement as one that would help her nation’s economic revival.

Now you know why President Trump was so quiet last weekend as Carney and crew were pushing their story.

Venezuelan opposition up in arms over reports US wants big stake in oil and gas

Reports that the US is preparing to claim a big stake in Venezuela’s massive energy reserves have sparked an outcry, with critics describing the move as “predatory” and a “rapacious” land grab.

Several media outlets this week reported that the Trump administration – which abducted Venezuela’s authoritarian president, Nicolás Maduro, in January and has steered the South American country ever since – hopes to secure long-term access to its oil and gasfields.

Venezuela has the world’s largest proven crude oil reserves with an estimated 303bn barrels, compared with Saudi Arabia’s 268bn and Iran’s 208bn.

Hmmm.

Canada Opens to Chinese EVs as FBI Exposes Beijing-Linked IoT Hacking Network

SAN DIEGO — A sworn FBI affidavit unsealed Wednesday describes a seven-year investigation into a Chinese hacking operation that targeted NASA, the Federal Reserve, the Department of Energy, the Justice Department, the National Institutes of Health and, this year, the United States Senate.

The filing says payments from China’s Ministry of State Security to Nanjing Xinjiuwei Network Technology Co. indicate that the private company conducted malicious cyber operations for Beijing. Some of its hackers were former members of the People’s Liberation Army who used their military connections to obtain contracts and subcontracts for offensive cyber operations.

Victor Davis Hanson: We Need to Stop Letting in Ungrateful Immigrants

All Americans support legal immigration, especially legal immigration that is diverse, as I said, measured in numbers that can be assimilated and acculturated and integrated, meritocratic, so we get people who come here with skills that ensure that we, the people of the United States, will not have to support them, and they have some knowledge of the traditions and customs and protocol of the United States, as well as English fluency.

MACLEOD: Alberta needs its own trade deal with the United States

For three days, Canada and the United States (US) appeared to have a trade deal. On August 19, President Donald Trump said they probably had one. Canada’s trade minister, Dominic LeBlanc, said the two countries were “very close,” while US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said negotiators had reached an agreement. Then, late on August 21, Prime Minister Mark Carney pulled Canada’s negotiators out of Washington and killed it.

Trump administration plans to revoke 200,000 visas of asylum seekers

Donald Trump’s administration said on Monday it planned to revoke the non-immigrant visas of foreigners who have applied for or are currently seeking asylum status in the US, marking its latest step in a sweeping immigration crackdown.

A state department spokesperson said it was coordinating with the Department of Homeland Security “to identify and revoke the non-immigrant visas of foreigners who have come to the United States claiming to be short-term visitors, but then file for asylum to stay here permanently”.

The state department did not specify the number of visas that will be revoked in the process.

‘I hate Democrats, but I love Abdul’: voters who left over Gaza return for progressive push

Two years ago, Zainab Bibi Ahmed thought she had turned her back on the Democrats for good. Now, she is volunteering for the party’s US Senate nominee in Michigan, Abdul El-Sayed.

Ahmed was one of 100,000 people to vote uncommitted in the February 2024 Democratic Michigan primary, in a bid to send a message to then US president Joe Biden about his support for Israel, as people watched what Amnesty International later called a “live-streamed genocide” in Gaza on their screens.

That November, Ahmed – a resident of Troy, Michigan, and an academic staffer at Wayne State University – opted to vote for the Green party’s Jill Stein amid calls to punish Democrats over the administration’s support for Israel.

Islamist Groups to Move Up To $140M from Charity into Buying Elections

Islamic charity really isn’t ‘charity’, unlike Judeo-Christian charity, it’s about expanding the Islamic presence and subjugating civil society to Islam. So weaponizing Islamic ‘charity’ to elect Islamic candidates to take over America is the essence of Koranic ‘charity’.

Mark Carney should ally with Michigan Islamist Abdul El-Sayed to score big against Trump in US midterms says Star

Abdul El-Sayed wants to be elected this fall as the next U.S. Senator for Michigan.

On Saturday, the Democratic candidate accused his Republican opponent of blindly supporting U.S. President Donald Trump and his new 50 per cent tariffs on Canada, which he said would cost Michigan families thousands of dollars a year.

“He’s a sock puppet who will do whatever Trump wants,” El-Sayed tweeted of Mike Rogers, a former FBI special agent, “no matter what it costs you.”

China’s Shadow War for America’s Pacific Front Line

OTTAWA — In this episode, I sit down with Indo-Pacific researcher Cleo Paskal and frequent Bureau guest Chris Meyer to investigate a part of the world that rarely commands sustained Western attention — but could determine the outcome of the next global conflict.

Paskal has testified repeatedly before the United States Congress and the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission. A former journalist, she has spent years travelling through the Pacific’s smallest and most strategically important states. The path that drew her into this subject resembles my own in Vancouver.

America’s commitments have outrun its fleet

News about the problems aboard the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln is another tangible sign that America’s military is overstretched. Thankfully, help is on the way — if Congress will pay for it.

Forget arguing over whether the crewmembers on the Lincoln are suffering from bad food or mental health problems, as is alleged. The undeniable fact is that the ship just set a record for the length of time deployed without a port call. Spending 260 days at sea without ever getting off a ship would be taxing for anyone, much less for sailors operating in a war zone for most of that period.
