There is a solution to Venezuela’s social and economic tragedy: The recall referendum, a constitutionally sanctified mechanism allowing the voters to remove the president. The opposition is trying to force a recall, but autocratic President Nicolas Maduro and the “Chavista” military, which lost the the National Assembly elections in December, won’t allow it because Mr. Maduro would lose.
Instead, they are bent on eliminating all civil resistance and political opposition. The result is a potential humanitarian nightmare for the Western Hemisphere. In one week, 400,000 Venezuelans flocked across the reopened border with Colombia looking for food and medicine; some are even fleeing to Guyana, a very poor country.
The more the country sinks into despair, the worse the repression and militarization. The 14-year sentence for Leopoldo Lopez, a well-known Venezuelan political prisoner who has been severely mistreated at the Ramo Verde prison, has been ratified by a court of appeal even though the prosecutor admitted the evidence was false.
The military, which already controls more than half the ministries, oil giant PDVSA and a bank, now commands the crippled economy. Mr. Maduro has given exceptional powers to General and Defence Minister Vladimir Padrino Lopez, who is in charge of food distribution.

Communism always works this way. It would under Hillary too.
Marxism always ends up this way.
Only utter dolts haven’t yet realized that irrefutable fact.
The ‘gimmedats’ in our country are too ignorant to know this is in their future if they don’t wise up.
President-ELECT Trump should call for an overthrow with a promise to make the country rich. THEN he should go after the Castros.
The “IDinDoNuffins” will loot the stores and then they will not be restocked for just reasons.
The “idnDoNuffins” and the ‘gimmedats’ are the reason we need to stay well stocked of ammo and locked and loaded.
And we’ll keep the oil for payment.
The endgame for the USA too if Hillary is elected. This is an example of 0bama policies going to their logical conclusion. Anyone wonder why they want us disarmed and helpless?
Mugabe, Maduro, Clinton — what difference does it make?
Not a word on this in our media.
But this simply can’t be. Isn’t there an evil capitalist behind all this, holding a bag of cash with the dollar sign in front, wearing a top hat, twirling a handlebar mustache and cackling hysterically?
Well, Chavez’s daughter made it to Switzerland with a 2 billion bank account. Funny how that works. The Castro’s are lucky like that too.
Hillary promised executive amnesty to 40 million illegals
in first 100 days. This proves Hillary is 1 million times worse than Obama.
And Hillary plans to dissolve the U.S. border first 100 days:
that means 10’s of millions of more voters for Hillary/socialism. Hillary is worse than ObAMA AND Chavez combined. If Hillary wins America is done and will become Venezuela . They have no food nor medicine in Venezuela now because of socialism. it doesn’t work. first Hillary will implement single payer healthcare. Google it. it’s true . and all that don’t do everything to stop Hilliary it’s what they are doing is destroying America.
Trump last night outlined his immigration policy in a speech. Ann coulter said that was the greatest speech she ever heard and I agree. why don’t you all read it or see it? All Americans have to unite to defeat Hillary the communist = Chavez
Help spread all this message above to all Americans . Hillary is 1 million times worse than Obama .
Trump is one in a trillion as his speech for the ages on immigration proved.
utter dolts = democrat voters and by definition the majority of the populations of NY, NJ, MA, CT, RI, CA, ME, MD, and DE. NYers are especially likely to be charter members of the Dunning Kruger club (% who voted for 0)
The U.S. media are the enemy of the American people and they are all communists : that’s what they want for the USA socialism/communism

We’re not that far behind given what the FBI and the injustice department have done.
Venezuela was taken over by a crime syndicate.
Donald Trump should, once elected, sent special forces into Caracas to capture the Maduro piece of shit alive.
