Initially. It won’t last.
Finance Industry Eyes Investment Opportunities in Venezuela By Brian Schwartz Some on Wall Street are already considering possible investment opportunities in Venezuela following the capture of Nicolás Maduro, according to Charles Myers, chairman of consulting firm Signum Global Advisors and a former head of investment advisory firm Evercore. Myers said in an interview he is planning a trip to Venezuela with officials from top hedge funds and asset managers to determine whether there are investment prospects in the country under new leadership. The trip will feature about 20 officials from the finance, energy and defense sectors, among others, Myers said. The tentative plan is for the group to travel to Venezuela in March and meet with the new government including the new president, finance minister, energy minister, economy minister, head of the central bank and the Caracas stock exchange. Myers didn’t provide a list of individuals who were planning to travel to the country. He estimates that there will be between $500 billion and $750 billion in investment opportunities in the country for foreign investors over the next five years. "There is a huge amount of interest in Venezuela reconstruction opportunities. And it will bounce back faster as it is in our hemisphere, and the new government will be predicated on welcoming foreign direct investment from day one," Myers said.
The hedgies seem to believe there is or shortly will be something called a government in VZ, and that it'll be safe for them to travel there in March.
It's almost like the hedgies knew more about this invasion than Congress.

And speaking of dictators….I love the title of this book on Franco, Spain’s former dictator. Resonates with “Is America great yet?”

Starbucks @sbworkersunited.org baristas are standing up to corporate greed and Starbucks’ unfair labor practices and demanding the fair contract they deserve.
No contract? NO COFFEE!

After last night’s blue wave my anger bubbled up. Normally this would not resonate with me, but today it surely does. Take THAT, you MAGA creeps!

ICE is instituting a Gulag Archipelago in the US.
Appalling conditions for captives in ICE facilities nationwide. Stand up! Act out!
Accurate and concerning.
it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions
"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"
The NFL must act NOW to stop ICE from targeting the Super Bowl LX where Bad Bunny will be performing at the halftime show before it’s too late. #SBLX #AppleMusicHalftime sign.moveon.org/petitions/su...
This one is pitch-perfect.
What a beautiful photo!
Life-size bronze sculptures of the 5 Black students who integrated East Tennessee State University in the 1950s now stand tall on campus. Eugene Caruthers, Elizabeth W. Crawford, George L. Nichols, Mary Luellen Wagner, and Clarence McKinney shattered barriers with unimaginable courage.
MASS BLACKOUT Nov 25th - December 2nd. The largest economic blackout protest in US history. -No work -No spending Shop local non MAGA To prevent “spike spending” before and after the BLACKOUT we ask that all participants purchase goods needed from community-owned stores and markets leading up to and after the dates. This helos with sustained impact and keeps money out of mega-business’ pockets.
Miss him so much.
I wonder whether he wants to start a war with Venezuela - or another South or Central American country. I’m sure he would love to bomb LA. Didn’t he do a tweet on that on No Kings day?

Look, he might be able take my freedom away…or yours…or that of a friend you have 3 states away. But, get your Goddamn head screwed on tight for this: There is no fucking way….he can take away our collective freedom. That would require dropping to our knees and giving up.
I am so jealous of all that cooking. We have our special election for the Election Rigging Response Act (Prop 50) and I have been too busy to cook for the past 6 weeks. I hate it!

It is true that there is lots of whining. But LOTS of us are working very hard, and have been since January. I am talking about people on the ground, who are terrified for our kids/grandkids. Personally I hate the whining but I guess it makes people feel better. What makes me angry is the blaming.
Don’t let this make you quieter.
Get louder.
