Trump claims credit for $100 million in Venezuelan earthquake aid. But that money flows to Delcy Rodriguez and Diosdado Cabello — not the people. Meanwhile, the Trump regime has extracted over $5 billion in Venezuelan oil revenue. This isn't humanitarian policy; it's a resource extraction deal disguised as diplomacy.

Ben Meiselas wastes no time setting the scene: all hell has broken loose in Venezuela following twin earthquakes on June 24 that struck north-central Venezuela 39 seconds apart — a 7.2 followed almost immediately by a devastating 7.5 [1] — Ben Meiselas "~2,000 confirmed deaths, 10,000+ injured: The June 24 Venezuela earthquakes killed approximately 2,000 people and injured over 10,000, with…" 02:30 . With roughly 2,000 confirmed dead, over 10,000 injured, and tens of thousands still missing, the humanitarian scale is staggering [1] — Ben Meiselas "~2,000 confirmed deaths, 10,000+ injured: The June 24 Venezuela earthquakes killed approximately 2,000 people and injured over 10,000, with…" 02:30 . Meiselas frames Trump's behavior not as incompetence but as deliberate alignment with authoritarian interim leader Delcy Rodriguez and her enforcer Diosdado Cabello, who are blocking aid and rescue operations. Trump, he argues, is supporting Delcy because he wants Venezuela's oil money — claiming credit for $100 million in aid while allegedly extracting over $5 billion in oil revenue from the country. Meanwhile, legitimate opposition leader María Corina Machado — who was forced to surrender her Nobel Peace Prize to Trump — is being blocked from even returning to her earthquake-ravaged country. Meiselas positions this as a pattern of authoritarian enablement, calling Trump 'the worst authoritarian of them all right now.'

María Corina Machado was forced to give her Nobel Peace Prize to Donald Trump, yet Trump still blocks her return and sides with the Delcy Rodriguez regime.

Avnish grew his solo business to $25,000 per month in just 15 months without spending a dollar on ads. His entire growth engine was built on community posts in Reddit and Facebook groups.

Vasco is so confident in YouTube that he'll personally PayPal $500 to anyone who posts for 45 days and doesn't make $5,000. This isn't hype — it's a distillation of his own experience growing an AI app to $70K/month using nothing but daily videos.
Vasco's AI app went from zero to $70,000 a month in just two years. The entire growth engine was YouTube — one video a day, nothing fancy, no expensive tools. Most of his users came directly from the channel.
People buy from people they know, like, and trust. YouTube is the only platform that builds all three at scale — and Vasco's $1M business is the proof of concept.
