Pure evil Maduro, and so many that do his bidding (their own survival?)..deplorable.. NOT being able to get in there now without military intervention by the UN it seems..- the killing of Oscar Perez...the attack on the marketplaces..the theft of what was once a prosperous economy...to think there are many smart people with much wealth unwilling (too harsh?) to make a difference..that is a broad stroke, I know...

Thank you for all your reporting..I really need to tune into Vox..
