Nope. I just heard they have plenty of it.

The head of the Russian parliament's foreign affairs committee says Edward Snowden has accepted Venezuela's offer of political asylum.
Alexei Pushkov made the statement on his Twitter account Tuesday. The message did not clarify how he learned of Snowden's purported acceptance, but Pushkov has acted as an unofficial point-man for the Kremlin on the Snowden affair.

Accepting the offer is one thing, getting there is another.
Venezuela has been berry, berry good to Barry. He should not trust them with his life and freedom.
If I were Snowden I would have probably preferred asylum in Russia over Venezuela.
If he’s worried about a hit team then nothing short of SS (equivalent) protection in Russia will protect him.
I would go off grid for a good while if I were him.
That’s all nice and good but my main concern is still about the scumbag NSA shredding the constitution.
Disinformation
Wonder if another plane goes down?.
Good point. I think I would have gone with Ecuador. But it beats coming back here and getting fried by the police state. No toilet paper though. Eeeek!
Step 1: Get a Venezuela Passport issued by the embassy in Moscow.
Step 2: Get a one way ticket - Moscow to Caracas via Havana
Step 3: Load up on toilet paper
Step 4: Fly to Caracas
Step 5: Enjoy life in a socialist paradise or at least as long as your toilet paper holds out.
In Venezuela he will have to worry about Maduro being unable to maintain the Chavez machine, and with having to flee for his life after the next election and/or coup.
They won’t try and stop his plane though. The Evo Morales thing outed us on that. Personally I think we were set up.
You ever see the kind of toilet paper they have in Moscow?
Short of facial reconstruction you are right.
Even then he has a long shot.
If they are going to get him I would hope he is going to unleash everything he has that won’t actually compromise national security.
Nope. I just heard they have plenty of it.
His best way to stick it to our country now would be to commit suicide. No one would believe it was really a suicide.
If you are pretty sure “they” are going to kill you regardless,then the only thing to do is dump everything you know to the public domain.
If you are marked for death ,either for what you have told,or for what someone fears you may still know but haven’t told,getting it out is the only tool left to hurt your would-be killers.
It leaves them only revenge as a motive,and they may just be too busy dealing with the info release to come after you.
Kind of like the soldier who is lying wounded ,about to be shot by an enemy,who rolls over and presents the enemy with his last grenade,pin pulled.If I’m going,you’re going with me!
If you have bad knees...good luck.
Step 1 - secure a location to live
Step 2 - build a cover story
Step 3 - release your cover story
Step 4 - when everyone is focused on your cover, slip away to actual location
Step 5 - assume new identity in new location
Step 6 - Be very careful with who and how you communicate outside your cover, and how you access money. Perhaps he sets up an Ebay seller account and “sells” trinkets/clothes/cars...
Step 1: Get a Venezuela Passport issued by the embassy in Moscow.
