The next story was almost entirely embargoed by corporate media (only Fox covered it). India’s Economic Times reported it, though: “US removes highly enriched uranium from Venezuela.” I’ll bet you didn’t even know there was any enriched uranium in Venezuela. It turns up in the strangest places. Well, now we’ve got it. Another dividend from our Maduro-snatching operation.

“Thanks to President Trump’s decisive leadership, the dedicated teams on the ground completed in months what would have normally taken years,” said Brandon Williams, NNSA Administrator. “It is another signal to the world of a restored and renewed Venezuela,” he added. (The NNSA is a semi-autonomous agency within the US Department of Energy.)

Venezuela had a small research reactor, but activities ended in 1991. The 30 pounds of uranium, enriched above the 20% danger threshold, were left over as “surplus material.” Don’t get all conspiratorial. Every banana republic keeps yellowcake. It’s like a spare key for the Airbnb. Because, like all of us, rogue, cartel-linked communist governments in South America obviously need some spare uranium laying around just in case. Don’t be silly.

Anyway, it’s now been transported safely to the United States for even safer safekeeping— before anyone even knew it was on its way.

One gets the strong sense there is a lot happening in Venezuela right now, and the media either doesn’t know or won’t say. This might be the biggest, most concealed story in the world right now. Maybe I’ll connect some dots on the South American transformation soon.
