Been five days since America invaded Venezuela, arrested its president and seized control of the country.

The bottom line is we now have freedom in Venezuela.

I have so many Venezuelan friends, they are crying tears of joy.

This is their first real opportunity to experience democracy and freedom.

That's right, Trump is stinking up the joint with freedom.

It's just crop dusting our hemisphere of democracy.

Finally, the Venezuelan people are in charge of their own destiny.

Lets see exactly what kind of freedom they have won.

President Donald Trump announced that Venezuela will be giving the US 30 to 50 million barrels of oil to be sold.

This oil will be sold at its market price and that money will be controlled by me as President of the United States of America.

Okay, okay, look, say what you want about his corruption, at least Trump is hands on with it.

Dick Cheney had to funnel it through Halliburton or whatever, but

Donald Trump is like, yo, just give me the oil, I'll open a gas pump outside the Oval Office.

So, yes, Venezuela has agreed to hand over approximately $2 billion worth of oil to the United States out of the goodness of their hearts and because we are mugging them, which seems harsh, but

A little bit of oil money for President Trump is a small price to pay for illegally kidnapping the president.

And now that this payoff is taken care of, America will get out of your hair.

The US now imposing a military blockade on its oil exports, using it as leverage to get Venezuela to give in to the Trump administration's demands.

The US has conveyed to the interim leader of Venezuela that she must agree to partner exclusively with the US on oil production and kick out officials from China, Russia, Iran and Cuba, severing all economic ties with those countries.

I think we all know what's going on here.

Ladies, when your new boyfriend forces you to cut ties with all of your friends, he's a keeper.

Sorry, it kind of feels like Trump wants to be the new dictator of Venezuela.

We obviously have maximum leverage over the interim authorities.

Their decisions are going to continue to be dictated by the United States of America.

Okay, look, I know how that sounds, but just because you dictate doesn't make you a dictator, okay?

Dictators, they live in Like a gold palace or something.

And to any Venezuelans looking for advice on how to get rid of Donald Trump, we have no idea.

But I can tell you one thing that doesn't work.

But if you're not join a country in the area, and

this sounds like a good deal, well, good news.

Democracy is coming back to this hemisphere.

Okay, first of all, congratulations to this guy on surviving the Ark of the Covenant.

And second, look, okay, the world is a messed up place.

If an oil rampage is what it takes to spread democracy, maybe that's what it takes.

So which of these tyrannical dictatorships are we going after next?

President Trump and his team are also targeting a northern ally of the US with new threats to take over Greenland.

Because the only thing we hate more than a brutal authoritarian regime is whatever the complete opposite of that is.

That's just one little hitch with invading Greenland.

Denmark, which controls the independent territory, is a close NATO ally.

The Danish Prime Minister has said a US Attack on NATO territory would effectively end the alliance, which has never seen one member attack another.

For their freedom or their oil or for national defense.

Look, I don't remember what excuse for using, but okay, this congressman, he'll explain.

It's important that we have a stake in Greenland.

When you look at the Western hemisphere, we are the dominant predator, quite frankly, in the Western hemisphere.

Trump is the dominant predator in the Western Hemisphere.

At least now that Jeffrey Epstein is dead.

For more on America's plans in Venezuela, we go live to Caracas with Michael Kosta.

What America is doing here is legitimate international business.

Trump is simply offering Venezuela protection from dictators and foreign enemies, and

in exchange, they give him money for that protection.

This is just Venezuela tucking an envelope of cash into Donald Trump's pocket every week.

Because it would be a real shame if they forgot to pay and their economy blew up when it turned on its car.

Okay, everything you're describing is what the mob does.

You're even dressed like you're in the mobile.
