What the U.S. Is Doing in Venezuela

"Suppressing democracy and extracting resources at the expense of its people"

Isn't that what the previous incumbents were already doing?

in one word, neocolonialism

Maduro was a shit. The operation to take him out was a masterpiece. But for what?

The US isn't better off. Venezuelans haven't seen benefits yet. Trump learned the wrong lesson from a brilliant military operation and was convinced that he could do Iran just as easily. Perhaps the biggest wrong lesson in 150 years.
