#1 Yea well, far as I'm concerned, Tranzi ideology is the biggest danger to me & mine (and you and yours) right now*. So, any enemy of the EU gets the benefit of doubt---at least.

*Muslims are just vermin who can be suppressed once their Tranzi protectors are dealt with.

#2 From this link:

I found nothing on the website of The Nation, whose writers are seemingly too busy trying to find rationales for Putins attack on Ukraine. But fortunately, one voice was brave enough to defend Nicolas Maduro the former member of Congress, Joseph Kennedy II.

Writing in the Wall Street Journal, Sohrab Ahmari notes that Kennedy is busy airing TV ads heralding Maduro for providing cheap subsidized fuel to the poor in the Bay Area, provided to Kennedys corporation, Citizens Energy. The cold can overwhelm even the toughest among us, the ad states, and the heating bills keep piling on. Then Mr. Kennedy himself appears on screen, and says: The people of Venzuela and President Maduro are once againthe only country to answer our call to provide heating assistance to the poor. Given that Kennedy makes this statement precisely at the moment when demonstrators are being shot and the opposition leader jailed, Mr. Ahmari writes that Kennedy now has the distinction of being the most prominent useful idiot singing the praises of Maduros crumbling regime. I would modify that statement. The regimes failings are so transparent that to praise it, as does Joseph Kennedy II, proves that he is actually simply an idiot, and hardly useful to anyone.

I await with bated breath the Obama administrations unqualified vocal support to the brave Venezuelans who are calling for an end to the regime of the would-be Castro of Venezuela.

It looks strongly to me like the local US tranzis are siding with Putin's rent-a-mob in Venezuela. (I'm not going to go to the Nation's website to check if they're actually sticking up for the Russian side, they might make a fraction of a cent off the click).
