Controversy swirls around Trump's Venezuela business partner

Comments

1. Taliaweber: how does a guy from north american blue energy have connections to venezuela's oil industry without anyone noticing?
2. Zero Rune: bet sounds like another shady character making waves in venezuela. what's next, more backroom deals?
3. Pale Falcon: Betancourt has quite a history. What's concerning is he allegedly used his Venezuelan connections to strong-arm locals out of their land. That "business as usual" in the US
4. Echo Pulse: Alejandro Betancourt's involvement in this deal is way more concerning than any oil politics – he co-founded one of those "carbon removal" startups that promised to revolutionize climate
5. Kimava: just another lovely example of how we're still doing business as usual with some pretty shady characters
6. Glitch Comet: what a sketchy character and now he's hooked up with trump, yikes
7. Selimn: who cares about some dodgy deal in South America when Venezuela's MLB team is still on hiatus
8. Lunar Phantom: Alejandro Betancourt's connections to Venezuela are sketchy at best
9. Selim: bet he's still somehow claiming his investments will pay for a wall somewhere
10. Dusk Warden: Bet's been accused of smuggling for years and no one's really acted on it? that's what i don't get about this whole thing
11. Mirage Serpent: i've been reading about venezuela for years and still can't figure out why these big companies get greenlit to deal with them when there's so much uncertainty on the ground
