U.S. intelligence officials said Friday they are concerned Venezuela is slipping into a crisis


I’m so glad they’re on top of it.

Teamobama only worried about a coup in that country. What if a non-socialist took over, that worries our regime I bet. I also wonder if teamobama will now let thousands of Venezuelans in our country because of this. You know they need those invader/votes for life.

You should care. The Chavez plan is the Clinton/Sanders plan.

They are just showing us the future of modern socialism.

Where are the Castro bros when they are needed most? Or a 911 call to Rome?

They pretty much slipped into a crisis before this guy... when they elected old Hugo Chavez. Been heading downhill ever since.

So their “fear” is that Maduro is going to be overthrown.

It’s amazing to me how much suffering the people will actually tolerate. Venezuelans should have thrown a revolution years ago.

No...no...it’s always a good idea to not feed the soldiers.

You know.....the guys with all the weapons and ammunition.

The 0bamaoists fear the fall of a Leftist regime?

Oh, pshaw....really?

Pray tell, what foreign forces are destabilizing poor old Venezuela? It sure isn't the USA.

Their destabilization is 100% homegrown.

Meanwhile Hugo Chavez’s daughter is the richest individual in Venezuela with 4.2 billion. With Hugo’s brand of socialism, much like charity, redistribution begins at home

I’d be willing to send them some aid if they sent up regular citizens to give mandatory-attendance classes to our college kids and professors about socialism.

So long as we don’t let any Venezuelans to come here, so long as it does not threaten the US, WHO CARES?! Let them have their revolution. Maybe send some arms to everyone and settle things themselves. Else, blockade and ignore them. It is not the US, not our country, they are nothing to us, leave them be.

” U.S. intelligence officials fear Venezuelan coup, government crackdown”

I fail to see how this could be any worst than what is happening now.

I think the headline was messed up. “Obama Intelligence officials fear Venezuela coup, government crackdown.

>>> .... and show ‘em how socialism is REALLY done.

I wouldn’t mind all those Bernie supporters and socialists get shipped there to implement their paradise. That’ll show them!

Yeah, that’s the ticket.
