A favorite leftist trope is that if wimmin ruled the world, whirled peas would abound.
Well, we're seeing how stupid that idea is in real time as the claque ruling and ruining Venezuela gets a good look under the hood.
According to El Mundo of Spain, which has a click-on English translation, Maduro's wife, Cilia Flores, pretends to be a sweet little doting grandmother who lives to support her Maduro, writing:
But don't be fooled: Cilia Flores is not the sweet 69-year-old grandmother (six years older than Maduro) who participates in Bolivarian feats and in the television marathons of the tenant of the Miraflores Palace.
Cilia Flores is a political animal , the head of the civilian wing of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), the counterpoint to Diosdado Cabello's military faction. Without her, Maduro would never have reached the top . Her presence at every meeting with the high political and military command, as well as on trips by allies to Caracas, is no coincidence. Cilia always speaks, and her words carry weight. (snip)
This isn't the half of it. The article notes also that she's the mom of the famous "narconephews," a 2015 case in which two of her sons from a previous marriage were picked up by the Drug Enforcement Administration in Haiti for attempting to smuggle 800 kilos of cocaine into the U.S. The pair were sentenced to 14 years in the can, but got let out in 2022, courtesy of Joe Biden, in exchange for some Americans that Maduro held hostage.
After that, Cilia put one of them in charge of the PDVSA state oil company's finances. When analysts note that the state oil company is nothing but a money-laundering front for the drug trade, the appointment makes perfect sense.

FTA: “...evil hags rule Venezuela and it won’t do to just get Maduro out of power — each and every one of these horrible women needs to face justice, too, particularly the Jill Biden of this bunch, Cilia Flores.”

On 18 November 2016, Flores’ two nephews were found guilty of trying to ship drugs into the United States so they could “obtain a large amount of cash to help their family stay in power”.
