Merged Peace President invades Venezuela,/U.S. Forces Capture Maduro

No, US refineries need the cheap heavy crude to run, even though they won't be able to sell it. But it's better than not running at all. Canada shale is too expensive to be worth it at current prices.

The United States continues to enforce the blockade against all dark fleet vessels illegally transporting Venezuelan oil to finance illicit activity, stealing from the Venezuelan people. Only legitimate and lawful energy commerce—as determined by the U.S.—will be permitted.
 
"Stealing from the Venezuelan people"?

If we've gone from a situation where Venezuelan crooks were pocketing the profits from selling the nations oil to a situation where Venezuelan crooks and US oil companies are splitting the cash and both pocketing the profits from selling the nation's oil, how does that help the Venezuelan people?

There was never any intention of helping the Venezuelan people. (Nor, for that matter, does it benefit the large majority of American people in any way). That is just a smokescreen for the real purpose of making the rich American elite even richer.
