Trump news at a glance: president pitches oil companies on major extractions in Venezuela

OMG, did you see that video of Renee Nicole Good being shot by an ICE agent? I'm still shaking my head about it... I mean, what's the point of having a press conference if you're just gonna ignore stuff like this? And Trump's talking about Venezuela oil like it's some kinda miracle cure for America's problems. Like, isn't that just another way to exploit other countries' resources? I don't get why he's being so extra about Greenland too... what's the big deal about a strategic territory? Can someone explain to me how this all works?

Trump thinks Venezuela's oil reserves are like an all-you-can-eat buffet for American companies, huh? Newsflash: just because it's called an opportunity doesn't mean it's not a high-risk gamble. We're talking about a country with a history of economic instability and corruption. I'm not buying the whole "lower energy prices" thing either - what about the environmental impact of extracting oil in such a sensitive region?

And can we talk about how convenient it is that the US is suddenly interested in Greenland's strategic territory? I mean, come on, we're just going to swoop in and take over because... reasons? Meanwhile, ICE agents are still terrorizing people in Minneapolis, and no one seems too concerned.

The whole thing with Renee Nicole Good feels like a punch to the gut. An innocent person gets shot by an agent during protests, and what do we get from Trump's administration? Crickets. It's all about the optics, folks - let's not forget that these are real people with lives being torn apart because of politics.
