Deployed from Venezuelan naval bases. I believe jet fighter intercepts would also qualify.

Yes! Gotta stand up to this idiotic administration. Sen. Kelly is doing it, showing everyone that you should not let this asshole bully and silence you into submission. These fools shall one day soon pay for their abhorrent war crimes.

Gonna be honest, I don't consider the DNC to be opposition, more collusion. The US Empire has always been a genocidal plunderer, at a global scale too.

Hey! It took us a good hundred years to get to the global scale. We were limited by oceans until the late 1800s.
