Venezuela: Maduran Hypocrisy — Dems on full display.

Brandon Lehman is a smart young YouTuber who I’ve followed for years. He usually has knowledgeable take on world affairs, from a conservative perspective. You want the Left perspective, go to any of the legacy media, CNN, MSNBC, BBC… 

In the vid above Brandon reckons the Dems are going to lose Hispanic support for refusing to recognise that Venezuelans themselves, in Venezuela, in the United States, around the world are ecstatic that the dictator has been arrested. They “praise the Lord”, but thank the United States… and even Donald Trump. While they are lectured and hectored by White inner-city wokesters on how wrong they are. Let’s see how that plays out in the elections. 

Notes:
Most countries did NOT recognise Nicolas Maduro’s 2024 election.* At the time every Democrat denounced him and his grab of power. Most recognised the opposition candidate Edmundo Gonzales. The Biden administration even set a Bounty of $25 million (later $50 million) on his head. A Bounty means a guy is presumed criminal, not a legitimate president. A legitimate target for bounty hunters; in this case the US Armed forces. 

Brandon features Dem Senator Chris Van Hollen in full-blown hypocrisy mode. Condemning Maduro when Biden was in power, slamming Trump when he does something about Maduro. The rest of the Dems I’ve seen quoted since the Maduro Manacle, are venting their hypocrisy in exactly the same way. Amazing. I mean the shamelessness of it!

Meantime: What’s happening to the “Rules Based Order?” by Carl Benjamin. Carl mentions that the Venezuela economy has fallen 80% since Maduro came to power in 2015. That’s EIGHTY! Percent! I Fact checked that and it’s correct, according to the IMF, the World Bank and Council on Foreign Relations. 

Since Maduro, 8 million Venezuelans have fled the country, for safety and money reasons.That’s the largest single emigration from any single country, ever

And this is the man we now see Democrats in the United States marching on the streets in support!? A man they reviled less than two years ago!? 

ADDED: “Marco Rubio has balls of steel”, by Greg Foreman, financier.
