Trump Orders US Military to Plan Invasion of Panama to Seize Canal: Report | Common Dreams
Democrats support Ukraine? Warhawks! Talking about invading panama? I don't know, probably crickets.
Don't forget him talking about invading Canada and Greenland and probably others as well.
My only hope is he can't stay focused enough to pick just one and starts a world War with no useful allies.
Mexico!
Ah, yes. Been a few days since the last ‘invasion threat’. Wonder when he will come back on this.
Donald "YOU'RE GAMBLING WITH WW3" Trump.
If I was younger, when the US starts a war in Greeland or Panamá, I would enroll to fight them. I'm sure the modern equivalent of international brigades will be created for exactly the same purpose they were created 89 years ago.
Ukraine did it. Vance's cousin fights with them.
This dumbass thinks he can win against the whole world. I really hope he doesn't get my kids killed.
Jeeeeeeezus fucking Christ
I'm really dreading the amount of well-deserved crap I'm going to get from the in-laws the next time we go back to visit Panamá.
Out of interest, were US Panamanians (?) Part of the more general Latin swing toward trump?
Not trying to say it's good, but I do wonder how those people are feeling/thinking now.
No idea. Some of my wife's cousins who are deal dual citizens were Trump voters in 2016, so I imagine they remained so this time around.
edit: autocorrect typo
Blow all the fucking locks and tell them: 'fine, it's yours'
Central command watching Southern Command carry out their legacy of invading Iraq.
Can Trump just make Vance a temporary general or something and charge him with recruiting an army of MAGAsites to be his own personal division of Fluff Grinders to invade and subsequently be captured/imprisoned?
Oh my fucking god. I just can't any more.
Not that I have any faith in the R congress to have a spine, but I'm not seeing how he even could do so if he wanted to without consent of Congress. Pretty well all the direct actions taken in the last couple decades come from the AUMF but that's at least theoretically supposed to be linked to terrorist activities.

Supposedly he'd have to have a reason, such as terrorism like you say, in order to pull a Bush Jr Invasion.
In todays wacked out evil af world... who knows. Im wondering why he's just not using the CIA to "covertly" do this. But then again it could all be a bluff.
Apparently part of the treaty that returned the canal to Panama means that either Panama or the US can unilaterally ensure the canal's neutrality if they feel it is threatened. So I'm sure they could make the argument that it falls under this. It would be bullshit, of course, but so are all of their other arguments.
Is Common Dreams reliable? It sounds like something you'd name your high school blog. Any reporting if this elsewhere?
Hold on! 3 school children from Panama are not there yet to be murdered by our weapons. How can Republicans live with theirselves if we don't get them? Give it a few more hours.
Noriega has really been asking for it. Is this surprising?
This dude means this litteraly.
