Discussion: State Dept. Evacuates Last Remaining Venezuela Diplomats As Crisis Escalates

The U.S. said late Monday that it is pulling its last remaining diplomats from Venezuela, saying their continued presence at the country’s embassy in Caracas had become a “constraint” on U.S. policy as the Trump administration aggressively looks to oust socialist President Nicolas Maduro.

An ominous development. I hope it doesn’t mean the ‘president’ is getting ready to play the war card in an effort to take the focus off investigations into his corruption and treasonous behavior.

Rather understated. This practically guarantees an invasion beyond the SF guys wandering around breaking transformers.

Besides China and Russia, there are about 140 other countries that support the Maduro government.
