Socialist-Run Venezuela Descends Into Chaos

I voted for the Trumpet dictatorship, since we had already had a Clinton dictatorship..

I doubt you have the brain power to vote!
I doubt your doubts..

And where did you copy and paste that from?
The doubting Thomas biblical site...

Sorry can not believe you, far left drones would never use such a site..
Who knows,, it could be filled with Snausages and a real dog house?

I just hope that they don't start walking and driving , pedaling their bicycles to the USA . I can already hear the naive saying , let them in , they are poor and abused . And then USA taxpayer paid people will set up programs and USA Taxpayers will feed them and house them at taxpayer expense .
 
It's not "Socialist-run". It's another failed dictatorship.

Just like Obama and the far left here?

Remember every time you vote far left this what you vote for!
Really, how does one become a dictator in a system of checks and balances?
Watch Trump. Our checks and balances (Chaffetz, Nunes, Burr) are willfully incompetent.

You mean just like Obama did?
Are you sure you know what a dictator really is?
It's not "Socialist-run". It's another failed dictatorship.

LOL. It is absolutely socialist run. Chavez was and Maduro, his protege, are both diehard dedicated socialists
Except they ran the country like dictators.

VENEZUELA ON THE BRINK

The opposition fights President Maduro’s power grab as Trump administration imposes sanctions.
July 27, 2017

Venezuela is at the breaking point. Its failed socialist system is imploding. Venezuela’s economy is in a free fall, a classic example of how top-down centralized government control ends up making conditions worse for virtually everyone except the autocrats running the show. Venezuela’s embattled president, Nicolas Maduro, is facing a determined opposition that is conducting a general strike and a mass protest this week.

Tensions have been building for months, but the country is approaching a critical juncture as Maduro plans to go ahead with a sham “election” on Sunday to choose 545 members for a body known as the Constituent Assembly. This new body would be empowered to rewrite the country’s constitution, which the opposition sees as a way for Maduro to consolidate his autocratic powers even further. The sham "election" of the Constituent Assembly members is procedurally stacked in such a way that Maduro will almost certainly get a pliant assembly to do his bidding. This move has not only angered the opposition, which has called for a boycott of Sunday’s election, but it has split Maduro’s own ranks. On July 4, 2017, Venezuelan Attorney General Luisa Ortega, a so-called Chavista, strongly denounced Maduro’s plan for a re-write of the constitution.

The opposition controls the National Assembly, which is trying to choose judges for Venezuela’s Supreme Court who are not Maduro loyalists. The Supreme Court back in March had announced that it was taking over the powers of the National Assembly in a blatant bid to suppress the opposition politically. While the Supreme Court reversed its decision a few days later, the move increased distrust in Maduro’s government. Maduro exacerbated the distrust when his intelligence forces began arresting judges appointed by the opposition. He has threatened to arrest more.

“As a direct result of Maduro’s power grab,” The Diplomat has reported, “more than 100 people have been killed, 1,000 injured, and nearly 3,000 arrested in the recent wave of violence and protests.”

VENEZUELAN OFFICIALS FUME OVER TRUMP'S SANCTIONS
Rich socialists and families must now vacation in Cuba – not Florida.
August 4, 2017

Vacations in Florida have been coveted perks for privileged government officials occupying top posts in socialist Venezuela. How ironic: While trading in crude anti-Americanism, they have nevertheless made a beeline to the U.S. when needing a break from oil-rich yet impoverished and crime-ridden Venezuela. Florida, in particular, has traditionally been the hottest destination for well-off Venezuelans where they own apartments and houses and, above all, enjoy the ornaments of American capitalism: Disney World, Universal Studios, Walmart, and other attractions.

Now, those Venezuelan elites -- rich anti-American socialists -- are ruefully saying goodbye to their U.S. perks. The Trump administration is hitting them where it hurts – freezing financial assets subject to U.S. jurisdiction and making it illegal for U.S. citizens to transact business with them. In other words, these rich socialists no longer have access to their U.S. bank accounts; and the U.S. dollars they obtain in Venezuela -- despite draconian currency exchange controls that deny U.S. currency to ordinary people -- will be of no use to them in the U.S.

Will they now head to Cuba? Not likely.

The sanctions, recently announced by the U.S. Treasury Departments, targeted 13 current or former senior officials of Venezuela's government. The aim was to punish officials for President Nicolás Maduro's sham referendum establishing a Constituent Assembly that will allow him to rewrite the constitution. Maudro, a bus driver-turned politician, must have made his Cuban handlers proud with this power grab. Plans to rewrite the constitution have drawn wide condemnation from the international community and rights groups.

Venezuelan Officials Fume Over Trump's Sanctions
 
VENEZUELA'S ATTORNEY GENERAL FLEES THE COUNTRY
The regime begins to eat its own.
August 25, 2017

It's an old story: leftist regimes eat their own. From the Soviet Union and China to North Korea and Cuba. And now this rogues gallery has a new member: Venezuela. There amid violent street protests and severe food shortages, the eat-their-own phenomena recently claimed a high-profile figure – Venezuela's embattled attorney general Luisa Ortega Díaz. She was an outspoken critic of President Nicolás Maduro – a dangerous position to take in socialist Venezuela. Its jails hold more than 100 political prisoners.

Last week, fearing she was about to be arrested after being sacked, Ortega fled for her life to neighboring Bogotá, Colombia, along with her husband Germán Ferrer – a former Marxist guerrilla and lawmaker in Venezuela's ruling leftist party. He faced extortion charges. The revolutionary power couple took a boat to Aruba – then flew on a private jet to Colombia where they were offered political asylum. But four days later, for unknown reasons, they took a commercial flight to Brazil where Ortega will no doubt be interviewed by law-enforcement authorities. She has claimed that Maduro and his cronies took nearly $100 million in bribes from Brazilian construction company Odebrecht. "I have a lot of proof, concretely in the Odebrecht case, which implicates many high-ranking Venezuelans, starting with the president of the republic," she said during a news conference in Brazil's capital. She also leveled other corruption charges against top Venezuelan officials. President Maduro, meanwhile, has said Venezuela will seek Ortega's arrest with an international warrant. Police raided her home, and state television broadcast images of an allegedly lavish lifestyle.

...

This is Chávez's legacy, to be sure: the same government that Ortega and fellow anti-Maduro leftists now look fondly upon. It will be interesting to see how many of them eventually admit that they too were useful idiots.
