I saw where The Gentleman Punk over at NukingPolitics has some thoughts about Venezuela.
It was an interesting read. He even mentioned video games, so some of you geeky nerd types will like that.
Have you found something interesting you’d like to share? This is the time, after all. It’s Thursday Night Open Thread. Share a link, video, ramble incoherently, whatever.
Who wants to start?

Trump seems to have had a lot of Red Shirts on his administration’s landing party.
I want Mexico to pay for the wall one way or another. Take it out of El Chapos’ buried piggy bank if you have to.
Sorry. You’re paying for it.
When Trump begged the Mexican President not to say Mexico wasn’t paying for the wall to the media, he showed his weakness at negotiating.
Now we’re on the hook 1.6 billion for a “wall” that wasn’t even supposed to be a real thing. An aide came up with “Build the wall” as an easy way for simple-minded Trump to talk about immigration.
Venezuela death squads, starvation, economic collapse, blah, blah, blah. What I really want to hear about is Danny Glover’s opinions about youth and global warming.

Recently we lost a very special lady named June Foray. She was a very talented voice actress who passed away at the age of ninety nine. Among other things she was the voice of Rocky the Squirrel, Natasha Fatal, and many other cartoon characters. During her long career she worked with people like Mel Blanc, Stan Freberg and Jay Ward and even with Johnny Carson. RIP June.

Also, today is International Beer Day! Ale or lager, pale or dark, enjoy one!
Only need $1.6 billion? I can think of some low-hanging fruit:
