Report From the Real Venezuela

1. So worth the time. This journalist has excellent credentials, just like his father,

who also is a journalist, and someone who served in the Clinton administration.

Just knowing his father worked with/for Bill Clinton will trigger a lot of troll foaming-at-the-mouth, of course.

Maybe someone should also remind them that Bill Clinton publicly condemned what the U.S. had done to Guatemalan civilians when they used them as test animals in a study they wanted to do on syphilis, without using U.S. citizens, as they did earlier, over 40 years on African-American men in the Tuskegee syphilis experiment, without getting in trouble. It should be remembered that the Nazis did this kind of testing during the Second World War, using minority group members, like Jewish people, as their subjects.

Republicans went wild when they learned Bill Clinton had the nerve to publicly condemn what an earlier US American government had done when it thought it could do it without any hassle.

Had to get that in, to remind people that Blumenthal's father, Sidney Blumenthal, worked with a Democratic President Republicans treated like trash, and then went ahead to fight like demons to keep someone like Trump in the US President's office.

Back to the video you have shared, it is OUTSTANDING.

Thank you, very much. It took me two shots to complete it, with interruptions, but I am so glad he spent his time and energy, and personal investment to do this report.

2. What a nice thing for Max to visit Venezuela! They could certainly use the tourism dollars

especially since the tourism industry is dead.

And the manufacturing industry. And agriculture.

Max ought to live there. Get paid the 16 cents per day that Maduro says is "fair". Though they certainly don't have a dearth of ass-kissing Chavista sycophants on state media. (actually the only media anymore)

3. As long as you don't require luxuries like electricity, food, or medical care

its not too bad. Nice weather.

4. Well. Madeleine Albright thought that starving half a million Iraqi kids was "worth it"...

... so I have no doubt that the Trump regime and the Guaido coup supporters have no problem with doing that to Venezuelans too.

5. Seems Maduro and the chavistas are good with it too

It’s chavismo that created this catastrophe
