Much in the same way that my Harley-Davidson tee shirt makes me a biker. This wasn’t a plot as much as a really bad screenplay pitch for a Comedie Douche.
Just posted this on another thread, and his probably works better in British Commonwealth countries, but how about:
“Bay of Prigs” …

Oh, I see where you’re coming from now.
Perhaps you should tell that to some actual green berets.

It’s showtime folks: in the era of Trump how could you expect anything else?

They thought they could Come And Go, but didn’t take into account the Venezuelan Army would hear their Footfalls. At that point it was a real Catastrophe.

Goudreau needs to shut up and hire an attorney more than anyone in this decade, and I include ghoulsie in that envelope. Amateur hour has passed, now it’s kibble hour.

“And they still don’t know jack shit”. Red Dawn, the fantasy where Russians invaded America. Well that fantasy came true in 2016 and these assholes sided with Russia.

I’m sure there is an administration position open for this guy.
I hope you are wrong, but cannot eliminate the possibility that you are on target.
I believe Trump’s comments on the operation were, “We just heard about it. It has nothing to do with our government.”
So, one participant under investigation for dealing drugs, the “leader” under investigation for dealing guns, but nobody picked up on the invasion plan. Wouldn’t that be a huge intelligence failure? Either that, or Trump’s lying.

An AP investigation published prior to the failed raid places Goudreau at the center of a plot hatched with a rebellious former Venezuelan Army Gen., Cliver Alcalá, to secretly train dozens of Venezuelan military deserters in secret camps in Colombia to carry out a swift operation against Maduro.
We’ve all seen this movie before.
We know how it ends that it never ends.

Maybe, just thinking out loud here, there should be some kind of outplacement service in the special forces so wackos like this can find some sort of hobby to work off their extra thrill-seeking energy. Extreme sports, a dangerous job like logging or nautical rescue, a voucher to buy a large, rambunctious dog, just something to help them stay out of this kind of mischief. I’m sure most of them say, “Well, that was fun” and then settle down sensibly. But obviously not all.
appear larger - yes … yet still far from normal in size or function …
Call me crazy, but something about the name “Mark von Reitzenstein” makes me wonder how deep the family’s roots are in Venezuela.

Especially since the AP blew the whistle on the whole conspiracy two days before it went off.

Those are the ones who sing especially loud paeans to democracy.
Just as they did in Chile decades ago, while bombing the elected president’s residence.

Bold prediction…don’t bone up on the details…unless some people want to waste some taxpayer dollars or work on their demagogue skills…this will go away after millions in legal fees are distributed to the appropriate firms.Under this DOJ,its hard to imagine there’s not a cover up in here somewhere…
