Some of Venezuela’s previous dictators have been big into Santeria, etc. (especially one fellow whose name escapes me now, but he ruled in the 1930s and always had a Santeria witchdoctor at his side).

(For that matter, IIRC I think the mother-in-law of the One
also believes in Santeria, and in keeping a certain House clean of the spirits...)

I hope that O’s MIL isn't slicing chickens in the Hut...she and her daughter are quite capable of scaring spirits all on their own. I remember the story of Hugo's idol, Fidel Castro, bringing live chickens into his NYC hotel room back in ‘59(?). I believe they were for dinner and not Santeria.

Rumor has it, Billybob snapped a chicken neck or two back in the bitterly partisan '90s.
