Seth Ambramson has a few reading suggestions:

SOURCE/ Here's a good starting point for the Trump-Venezuela scandal, which is currently like sixth in the queue of Trump scandals (after, e.g., Trump-China) still waiting to be fully appreciated by the majority of those in American media and U.S. voters: https://t.co/3Ol2BdxnCf

SOURCE2/ This Atlantic article gives you a sense of how bonkers the Trump-Venezuela scandal will be once it fully breaks (which is many, many months away, I suspect): https://t.co/nn7XdchoPo

SOURCE5/ Was Giuliani mixing business with shadow diplomacy in Venezuela—as in Ukraine—a scandal with many of the same actors and *related* to the Trump-Ukraine scandal? You bet your ass he was. And so was Pete Sessions—a key player in the Ukraine scandal. https://t.co/64jyYfnCXT

It's like he's on a mission to govern an empty country. Him and his buddies can have it all to themselves.
