Why bother? Just to show the world it’s bad there. It would be like Bush being nice to the lefties out there. Lotta good it did him.

A classic scene from the original run of Marvel's G.I. Joe comic came to mind. Issue #69, the Joe team is helping evacuate the American embassy in a country going down into socialist hell:

I think the bovine excrement is about to intercept the oscillating air mover.

At the very least this is an action to prevent hostage-taking such as happened in similar revolutionary circumstances in Iran. And if the embassy is out of power the generators will only last so long anyway. If the thugs have been given weapons-free the ordure has already hit the impeller blades. Stand by for the spray.

“diplomatic staff at the embassy has become a constraint on U.S. policy.”

That seems to strongly imply military action.

The recognized President, Juan Guido, is now asking the US, France, Colombia and Brazil, who operate Naval Forces off the Venezuelan coast, to blockade Cuban support to Maduro.

The new anti-communist President of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro, is scheduled to meet with President Trump on 19 March, and a series of pretty big deals are being worked right now - big changes to Brazil’s trade relationships away from China and toward the USA, Defense and Space Program cooperation - and no doubt, coordination on Venezuela.

Meanwhile Maduro in the ultimate act of redistribution had routed a chunk of the nation’s gold to China where it awaits him so he can frolic in the sun in his retirement. Really hope he ends up swinging from a lamppost in Caracas before he rejoins his gold.

Bank robbery in Merida, Venezuela - the local currency wasn't even worth carrying anymore. Even those just passing by ignore it.

Venezuela’s Guaidó mulls foreign military intervention for humanitarian aid (https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/venezuelas-juan-guaido-to-left-socialism-cause-of-humanitarian-crisis-as-he-preps-foreign-military-intervention )

Guaidó said he will invoke a constitutional article allowing the Congress to authorize foreign military operations to intervene in the country’s humanitarian crisis.

“There is part of Article 187 of our National Constitution, which is not only for Venezuela, but it allows for an outside country to cooperate or to assist Venezuela in this sense,”

Wide spread looting is causing more havoc in the capital City of Caracas and other parts of the South American country Opens a New Window. as conditions continue to deteriorate.

On kind of a fun note though: “Juan Guaidó invited Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) to see the humanitarian crisis for themselves.”
