The one country he left out that, in my opinion, is Venezuela. One reason he is going after John Bolton is because Bolton, on his book dedicates Chapter 9 to Venezuela. We all know Bolton is a war hawk, and while he was in the administration he was lead to believe the USA was going to get rid of the Venezuelan regime, Bolton was ready, he had a plan, and was just waiting for the OK to execute it. But, in the book Bolton tells that Putin talked to trump, told him to leave Maduro alone because Maduro is "strong and intelligent", and that Guaido, who was the elected president, was weak, so trump told Bolton to leave Maduro alone because he was "strong and intelligent", and that Guaido was weak. Then later, the woman who was Mike Pence's right hand appeared on TV and told that trump was a great admirer of Maduro, that he wanted to be like him, but trump lied to the Latin community about wanting to bring Maduro down, and he did that twice, in 2016 and in 2024 during his campaigns.
He kept telling the Latin community that he was going to get Maduro and his gang out from office, but in reality he admires Maduro and is following their blueprint to the dot. If anyone cares to read about South American history, you will find that what Chavez and Maduro have done in Venezuela parallels to what is going on here. ICE is the "Colectivos" from Venezuela, they were given weapons by the government, they have committed crimes against the population by robbing them, raping women, killing, torturing, and the list goes on. We are not there yet, that we know of, but it will follow if the madness is not stopped.
And one point the author of the article makes is that in all dictatorships, ALL those who aid the dictator take power will eventually be persecuted, apprehended, tortured, killed, and some of them will be lucky enough to get away on time before they suffer the same fate, anyone of those republicans believing they are special, that they are safe, soon will find out they are just pawns whose usefulness will eventually run out and they too will be dismissed.
What a tragedy ignorance is.
