Every Venezuelan I know (both living in Venezuela and elsewhere) hates the idea of US intervention, but they hate the idea of continuing to languish under Maduro's regime even more

They had to animate a red circle.

Around the armoured car crashing into people.

Cos the red circle was really necessary in case you missed the point :)


The report is accurate though.

Venezuela's economic crisis is now so bad that criminals can't afford to buy bullets

Lmao it's fine that you have no idea what's going on in Venezuela but don't post about it homie. Guaidó's party is the right-wing opposition to Maduro.
