Who knew regime change could be so “devilishly difficult”? Bozos like Pompeo. don’t know what the fuck they’re doing. Worse, they have no business doing what they’re doing.

Another thing is the failure too understand how Venezuela was run before Chavez took power. It was basically an alternation of power from two parties each supported by a different set of aristocratic families, one was more socially conservative and was supported by the old money landowner families, and the more liberal party by newer rich city based families. But both parties ran the country for the benefit of their masters, social spending in education, or health was at a minimum. A large percentage of the population received access to medical service for the first time under Chavez.

The economy has been all about oil since at least the 1940s, I have never bought anything that says “Made in Venezuela”, there is no export industry besides oil, a friend of mine was looking for a product with enough quality to export and the only thing he could came was baseballs. Crisis cause by swinging of the oil market (and government thievery) were cyclical, although this time the crisis is worse because Maduro is extra-stupid, and the old aristocrats were replaced by even greedier louts.

This Administration suffers from a surfeit of private recordings because they don’t respect the process or security measures which are there for a reason. And also because most senior members of Trump’s Administration, including Trump himself, are held in very little regard (i.e. contempt) by others there. I don’t recall this problem occurring with any regularity in any other Administration.

Pompeo inadvertently reveals the administration’s belief about presidential succession, foretells war between Lust Object, Beavis and Butthead

Just more lies in support of an administration’s agenda. Remember Joseph Wilson’s investigation into Nigerian uranium?
The agenda against Venezuela is most likely based somewhere in the petroleum industry…
