đ¨ VENEZUELA OIL HEIST: TRUMP DONORS POSITIONED FOR BILLIONS
The Narativ | Know Sooner
đ´ STORIES TO WATCH
1. đ° BOTH VENEZUELAN OIL AUCTION WINNERS TIED TO TRUMP
Trump Media CEO Devin Nunes and Trump Media officers acquired Blue Water Acquisition Corp IIIâthe SPAC that bid $10 billion for Venezuelaâs CITGO and lost to Paul Singerâs Elliott Investment Management. Singer won the court auction with a $5.9 billion bid (40% below CITGOâs $11-13B valuation), deal approved November 2025, set to close early 2026. Singer donated $1M to Trump inaugural fund plus $1M to anti-Massie SuperPAC targeting the congressmanâs opposition to foreign interventions.
Three months after Singer won, Trump orders Operation Absolute Resolve capturing Maduro. Trumpâs promise to ârun the country... get the oil flowingâ removes some obstacles to Singerâs purchase: Venezuelan appeals neutralized, PDVSA bondholder claims resolved, Treasury approval fast-tracked. Potential profit: $5-7 billion if CITGO returns to normal valuation under US-backed Venezuela. Both CITGO biddersâSinger who won and Nunes who bought the loserâare Trump-linked, positioning multiple insiders to profit from military action. The timing proves the operation served donor interests, not national security. Watch whether Singer takes possession while US troops control Caracas, converting $2M in donations into billions in profit.
The Day After Maduro
One day after U.S. military forces captured Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro on a Department of Justice narco-terrorism indictment, a framework of a deal is emerging that sold out the Venezuelan people and their democratic aspirations, for an oil deal Trump will personally profit from.
2. đ GREENLAND âSOONââMILLER THREATENS ANNEXATION HOURS AFTER VENEZUELA
Katie Miller, wife of Trump deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller, posted Saturday an image of Greenland covered with American flag captioned âSOONââhours after the Venezuela operation. Trump doubled down Sunday aboard Air Force One: âWe need Greenland from the standpoint of national security, and Denmark is not going to be able to do itâ. Analyst: âA possible US intervention in Greenland is now the biggest source of risk to the transatlantic alliance, arguably far greater than Russiaâs invasion of Ukraineâ. Danish PM Mette Frederiksen: âThe Kingdom of Denmark is part of NATO. I strongly urge the United States to stop the threats against a historically close allyâ. Greenland PM Jens-Frederik Nielsen called Trumpâs claims âdisrespectfulâââour country is not an object of the rhetoric of superpowersâ. Denmark now in âfull crisis modeâ. Trump appointed Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry as Greenland special envoy last month; Landry publicly endorses annexation. Venezuela demonstrated Trump will use military force to seize resource-rich territories; Millerâs âSOONâ signals Greenland is next.
3. đşđŚ FREELAND JOINS ZELENSKY TODAYâCANADA EMBEDS IN UKRAINE GOVERNMENT
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced today he appointed former Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland as economic development adviser, formalized in Presidential Decree No. 15/2026. Freeland was deputy PM 2019-2024, Finance Minister during Canadaâs Ukraine war support. She was already named by PM Mark Carney as Canadaâs special representative for Ukraine reconstruction. Freeland stepped down from Carneyâs cabinet in September but remains MP for University-Rosedale in Toronto. A sitting Canadian MP now works directly for Zelenskyâs government while Canadaâs PM meets allies in Paris to negotiate warâs end, creating potential conflicts when Trump pressures Ukraine toward territorial concessions Canada opposes. Watch whether this signals Western allies embedding personnel in Ukraine government to maintain influence as US withdraws support. (6 sentences)
4. đ MTG RESIGNS TODAYââMY FRIENDS WILL GET HURTâ
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greeneâs resignation from Congress takes effect today, January 5, 2026, after Trump withdrew endorsement over her push to release Epstein files. Greene says Trump called and yelled: âMy friends will get hurtâ if she named Epsteinâs clients; staffers heard him screaming through the phone. Her resignation shrinks GOP House majority to 218-213 just as Trump needs votes for Venezuela funding and Greenland operations.
5. đŽ FBI PURGE LIST DUE TUESDAY
DOJ list of thousands of FBI employees who worked Jan 6 investigations due Tuesday to acting Deputy AG Emil Bove for âpersonnel actionsâ. Friday: 40 prosecutors fired, DOJ deleted Jan 6 case records, hired former Jan 6 defendant.
đŻ THE PATTERN
Five separate stories reveal coordinated strategy: Military force establishes new facts, insiders profit, allies pressured to comply. Venezuela operation clears obstacles for Trump donorsâ oil deals worth billions. Greenland threatened next using same playbookâMillerâs âSOONâ posted hours after Maduro capture. Canada embeds official in Ukraine as US withdraws. MTG forced out today after threatening to name Epstein clients Trump warned would âhurt my friends.â FBI agents who investigated Trump allies purged Tuesday. Each creates irreversible change before democratic institutions respond. By Tuesday, FBI purge list arrives. By monthâs end, Singer likely owns CITGO while US troops control Venezuela, MTGâs seat empty, and Greenland facing âSOON.â Watch the UN and the courts today.
