There is aid waiting to be delivered to Venezuelans who desperately need the food and medicine they carry. Unfortunately, contested dictator Nicolás Maduro has his military blocking the aid in an effort to maintain control over the failing state.
Even as many in the military are abandoning their ranks, others are doing everything they can to stop the aid from getting to its destination, going so far as “incinerating” two of the trucks intended to help the people. Three of the trucks were able to make it through the blockade, according to Colombian officials on the scene.
The socialist regime of Nicolás Maduro has one goal: staying in power. If that means teargassing protesters, cutting ties with neighbors, and incinerating aid trucks with supplies intended for his starving people, so be it. https://t.co/odVhAfCEwL

My Take
This desperate attempt to hold power at all costs is getting to the point that the international community will need to get involved. That does NOT mean the United States needs to prepare for a military strike. The fine line between intervening in an internal dispute within a sovereign nation and assisting those who need humanitarian assistance.
It’s necessary for the international community to find a solution to get these people the food, medical, and living supplies they desperately need. Unfortunately, Russia, China, Iran, and other nations that oppose the United States are supportive of Maduro simply because the United States is against him. That’s the state of world politics; if the U.S. likes something, their opposition must not like it. Since the United States and 50 other nations support Juan Guaido as the interim president, of course our enemies would choose the opposite side simply to spite us.
There are people willing to help. There are nations with the pure desire to end the humanitarian crisis in Venezuela. Nicolás Maduro needs to either recognize this for his people or step aside and let someone else do it for him.
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!

Covid variant BA.5 is spreading. It appears milder but much more contagious and evades natural immunity. Best to boost your immune system with new Z-Dtox and Z-Stack nutraceuticals from our dear friend, the late Dr. Vladimir Zelenko.
Hey, HRC, this is when the term DEPLORABLE needs to be used in describing an individual (MADURO)….NOT the law-abiding USA citizens!!
