Nicholas Maduro, the Venezuelan president declared a 60-day state of emergency on Friday due to what he called plots from within the OPEC country and the United States to topple his leftist government.
Mr. Maduro did not provide details of the measure. A previous state of emergency, implemented in states near the Colombian border last year, suspended constitutional rights guarantees in those areas.......

As if Obama would ever do anything to undermine a leftist government.
Link to story:
Marxist governments always have one resource in abundance - they’re always fullash*t.
Cuba is in charge of Venezuela
Obama just legitimized them.
Maduro might be expendable, but it’s like replacing Stalin with Khrushchev.
The Americans are now allied with the COMINTERN.
State of emergency?
Dont they mean martial law to save Maduro’s ass.
The USA as bogeyman? How trite!
You have a link for “Daniel the Venezuelan Blogger”? Sounds interesting.
“called plots from within the OPEC country and the United States to topple his leftist government.”
I was dialing random numbers making prank calls the other

Spot on!
So, you know Venezuela is on the verge of economic collapse. The price of oil has dropped precipitously over the past few years—that’s a budgetary nightmare for a nation dependent on its oil exports.

Sorry I didn’t link earlier.
Daniel is fortunate to be wealthy enough to travel out of the country to get medicine for friends and family.

I wondered how long it would take them to trot out an outside enemy ...
The devil is in the details of this new emergency decree, which some scholars in the country were telling the media last night entails restrictions on demonstrations and protests.

Starvation has been their biggest weapon of mass murder through the ages.
Remember when Mr Sumohadiwijojo tole us we weren't gonna be able to eat the kinds of foods we want, nor as much of it? I do!
Marshal law? Our progressives are watching closely and drooling on themselves from various places.
