@HillaryClinton@_whitneywebb Back in March 2017, #Assange claimed that two intelligence officials close to @VP “stated privately this month that they are planning on a Pence takeover.” However, as Assange noted, they did not say if Pence was aware of the plan or if he had agreed to it.
Another tweet from #Assange asserted that @HillaryClinton “stated privately this month that she is quietly pushing for a Pence takeover”
As @MintPressNews has noted, a major cornerstone of Trump’s negotiation strategy and politicking is his unpredictability – a clear point of concern among U.S. establishment insiders. mintpressnews.com/from-taiwan-ca…
And Pence’s attractiveness to the intelligence community probably stems from his support for expanded war efforts; he's been called “a hawk’s hawk.” Pence voiced support for Iraq war, increased defense spending and greater US intervention in Middle Eastern countries like #Syria.

🧵Under the leadership of Hugo Chávez and Nicolás Maduro, Venezuela evolved into a critical Western Hemisphere hub for the Axis of Resistance against Zionism. This role was characterized by strategic military, economic, and intelligence cooperation aimed at countering U.S. influence.
Chávez and former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad solidified a brotherly system based on a shared anti-imperialist outlook.
The alliance facilitated Iranian investments—often through IRGC-affiliated entities—totaling billions of dollars in Venezuelan energy, agriculture, and manufacturing.
🧵A study carried out by academics Dylan Sullivan and Jason Hickel estimates that between 1880 and 1920, British imperialism was responsible for the deaths of some 100 million people in India.
After taking over the vast country, the British systematically destroyed its manufacturing sector and reorientated its agricultural industry towards cash crops.
The result was the destruction of the economy and widespread famine.
🧵After a long silence, U2 frontman and self-appointed humanitarian, Bono, released a statement on Gaza.
Two years into a genocide, however, the Irish rock star reserved fire only for Hamas, describing them as “evil.” He went so far as to blame Hamas – not Israel – for starving the population of Gaza. “Hamas are using starvation as a weapon,” he wrote.
U2’s thoughts on the situation were roundly mocked and condemned on social media.
🧵Hitler and his Nazi party had many admirers and backers in the United States. This included some of the largest corporations in America. In this series, MintPress looks at some of the biggest companies that aided Hitler’s rise to power and his warmongering.

🧵What happens when the head of a major pro-Palestine organization is linked to Israeli intelligence and Zionist institutions?
This new investigation by professor David Miller for MintPress News breaks down explosive revelations about Ben Soffa, the National Secretary of the UK’s Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC), and why they matter for the Palestinian rights movement.
From ties to a former Israeli spy to the censorship of legends like Leila Khaled and Palestine action co-founder Huda Amouri, these facts raise urgent questions about transparency, integrity, and who controls the narrative in solidarity spaces.
