Guess who may well have not received the covert assistance they were promised at the tipping point. Just like the Cubans on the beach under Kennedy with their “air cover”. America has a sad and undeniable history if this.

the Guiado Coup has failed. There will be a very bloody end for the boy. The US media has fallen so silent that it is quiet as a funeral.
This was a colossal failure of the State Department. The Blundering john bolton now trying to get us to fight the 93 million people of Iran over some nebulous bs about a boat carrying the missile belonging to this sovereign country, dropped the ball in our own back yard. Our great president must run Bolton ( and I am beginning to think Pompeo) ) OUT ON A RAIL. Venezuela was so easily taken if we had moved before the Chinese and Russian surrounded Maduro. Now , we are frozen in fear and defeat.

The true Coup leader is Maduro.

The replacement regime went through all the legal loopholes to replace him. He’s the one refusing to honor the legitimate government as I understand it.

You are right.

What I meant to say was:Freedom comes out of the barrel of a gun.

Read the Venezuelan Constitution. Even stretching it beyond the furthest limits of reading comprehension, at this point in time, Guaido is nothing.

Elected by whom? He never ran for the Presidency of Venezuela. He was not elected by the citizens of VZ.

Very true. It’s a living, suffering visual aid that must be kept in the forefront in the future to remind Americans socialism is no panacea.

They can if they want. It’s just not bad enough there for them to want to do so.

I am not saying I think in anyway WE should intervene in Venezuela, I am saying the citizens there let themselves be disarmed AND voted for what they have now, HOWEVER by letting themselves be disarmed they now have no way to overthrow the tyrannical government they at one time voted for!!! This IS EXACTLY why we should never give into being disarmed by our government!!! We should NOT intervene in Venezuela not no but HELL NO!!!!

“It’s not like they deserve freedom or anything like that.”

It’s also not like they bothered to turn out to make a statement for freedom when big numbers were needed.

Our “progressives” will be cheering when the Venezuelan dictator starts executing dissidents.

Is the CIA even trying anymore?

I’ve never seen a more pathetic attempt at a regime change than that.
