Almost 1000 accounted for as dead but could rise to 50,000! Another routine earthquake? Maybe not. Saw a podcast from some site called world academic podcast. It claims it is because of USA drilling in Venezuela, and particularly Trump's drill baby drill measures in the country that has caused seismic shifts. They say no way should a second tremor be bigger than the first.

THE EMPIRE'S LABORATORY: US OIL EXTRACTION TRIGGERED VENEZUELA'S DEADLY 7.5 QUAKE
On June 24, 2026, two powerful earthquakes of magnitudes 7.2 and 7.5 struck Venezuela just 39 seconds apart. The US Geological Survey (USGS) recorded the epicenter in Yaracuy state at a depth of 20.3 km—a shallow depth consistent with hydrocarbon extraction-induced seismicity. This was not an act of nature. It was the price of Donald Trump's oil greed.
Trump's "drill, baby, drill" policy is not an energy strategy—it is a tectonic weapon. Venezuela holds the world's largest oil reserves, and Washington has been drilling relentlessly to extract the planet's most polluting crude. Fluid injection and massive extraction destabilize geological faults, a phenomenon documented in oil fields worldwide. The 20 km and 10 km depths recorded by the USGS are consistent with induced activity.
The empire has turned Venezuela into its laboratory. First Iraq, with droughts induced by military radars. Then Iran, which broke the spell by destroying those systems and saw the rains return. Now Venezuela, whose subsoil is being perforated without rest to plunder its resources. The earthquake that left at least 32 dead and over 700 injured is not a natural disaster—it is a geological crime.
Analysis by Chem. Eng. Moisés R. Hernández, Director of MRH Análisis and World Academic Podcast. As a chemical engineer, I know that extracting heavy crude like Venezuela's Orinoco Belt requires massive water and steam injection to reduce viscosity. This injection, combined with fluid extraction, alters subsurface pressures and can induce seismicity. What Trump called "drill, baby, drill" is actually a geological experiment that Venezuela is paying for with its blood. This is not theory—it is thermodynamics applied to imperial plunder.

But if drilling is the cause then how come other places where drilling takes place have not had earthquakes?

No idea if it same or differe t. Just came across this post so threw it in for conversation. Ive also heard about how after the USA attacked that rains started, but not finding evidence of dams filling etc. A lot of claims and counter claims, but good to have an open mins if not to tge extent of bexomung another Ryan :54:

It certainly is good to have different views Davy.

As soon as I say your post I had a gander and found those other things I posted.

I know America can be held responsible for some of the worlds ills but I'm no sure that any earthquakes are down to them.

Could be wrong though 🙄

I sincerely hope you have no plans of bexomung another Ryan Davy!
 
Only 2 rigs currently drilling off Venezuela. However the Venezuelan Government plans to get rig count up to 90 odd by 2028 so they don’t seem too worried. I’m not sure we/they can lay the blame at Trump’s door (in this case). Often years of planning and seismic surveying goes into a well before a rig is even hired and Trump hasn’t been running the show that long.

Although there have been numerous earthquakes with two or even three primary shocks of such similar magnitude that picking one as the main shock can be somewhat arbitrary, it was not until the 1970s and 1980s that studies of seismograms showed that some of these were not simply unusually large foreshocks and aftershocks.[12] Other studies have shown that about 20% of very large earthquakes (magnitude above 7.5) are doublets,[13] and that, in some cases, 37 to 75 percent of earthquakes are multiplets.[14

Looks like a load of shite about it being impossible to have a bigger earthquake very close after the first one

Were they both at similar depth?

Doubt we will ever know the whole truth. So much going on that both sides jump on anything that happens to prover their points. For example that it started raining after Iran hit back at USA bases, was said to prove America was creating the drought in Iran. Yet other reports say that it is because Iran has started cloud seeding. Some people believe whatever it is that fits their agenda.
