If the people of Venezuela were going to overthrow their government, they would have done it already.
This John Bolton puppet who is pretending to be the President - we’ve seen this act before. Every shithole in the world has 5% of the population who are able to act like us, they join NGOs, they go to Davos, they have the IMF on speed dial, they come to Washington to plead the case that their people want “freedom” (i.e., they want THEM in charge instead of whoever is actually in charge), and that the only thing missing is a billion dollars and 20 000 maimed or dead American sons of the soil, who the State Department won’t miss anyway because they are Deplorables or Bitter Clingers.
Been there, done that. Not having it again.
If the Venezuelans are unhappy, let them overthrow the government. If THEY won’t pay the blood price, I’m damned if I’m going to have our guys do it. Again.
Those days are over.
Tried to contact a pal who is at the border...but service is poor or disconnected. Was hoping to get first hand info to pass along.
As if we needed any more examples of why a nation of free people should never give up the tools, weapons, and materials to defend themselves from a tyrannical government, we get another example happening in real time.

I would say let the Democrats own the situation in Venezuela. They are pushing for this style of government in the USA. Time for a REAL uprising, and not international intervention. Frederick Douglass said that the 1st drawing of the sword and taking an action, must be done by the slaves...themselves.
Not-so-Humble needs to get a life.
Thanks for the post.
Here is an excerpt.
“One observation about the situation is that much reporting is being done from the country by people biased in favor of the Maduro government. That is reflected in mainstream media echoing the notion of the Maduro government that a “coup” was underway Tuesday.
