I wonder what AOC and her ilk have to say, as they watch Army vehicles running over innocent Venezuelans in and around the streets? "Trump is Bad" "Nazis" "Alt Right"?


Progressives and Libtards are the fricking worst

Have you seen the truck with the dual water cannons on it? Just the fact that they have a piece of equipment like that tells you what you need to know about this government.

I haven’t followed all of this today, but is this anything more than a street protest happening now or is there some military from the “rebels” involved in any way?

She is trying to find a way to connect it all to climate change and use it as an example of why Americans must pay more in taxes.

Give her a few weeks and she will figure it out.

Has it been confirmed that Maduro is still in the palace?

From what I can gather, it's mostly just that.

The protesters are faced off against the military supporting Maduro, who are down the street. Behind them is a military base and the airport where it's been rumored that Maduro is. Nothing but a Venezuelan standoff. Protesters throwing rocks and the occasional Molotov cocktail; military shooting rubber bullets in return.

I did see what looked to be one of the military guys getting injured somehow and thrown into the back of an SUV, then hauled off.
