BBC Reporting That Venezuelans In Fear, Humanitarian Crisis Already Forming

Just a few minutes ago.
I'm flipping back and forth between BBC and Fox News and it is two alternate universes.
BBC reporting that there are few celebrations in Venezuela, mostly small ones popping up here and there. The overwhelming majority of Venezuelans are hiding in fear, afraid for their lives, and wondering what comes next.
Showed multiple images and videos of people raiding stores and running on stores, long lines down the street, of people getting the last stocks of food available in Caracas. A food shortage is already forming and a humanitarian crisis is in the beginning stages.
Interviews of a few citizens who said they were distraught and worried.

Where were these stories when Venezuelans were eating zoo animals and flooding across our unprotected border under Biden the past 4 years?

There’s been a food shortage in Venezuela for years. BBC is, as you know, only playing a narrative game.

Acting as if food shortages have been created during the last 18 hours and did not exist before then.
Of course, their audience will buy it that Venezuela was functioning well before Trump cased poverty in less than one day.

The Maduro government is still in charge. No doubt most Venezuelans are happy Maduro is gone, but any public celebrations would probably be dangerous.

I work with a few Venezuelans out here, and they were ecstatic at his capture.

There's been a crisis in Venezuela since they elected Hugo Chavez.

Can you really have a Maduro government with no Maduro?

That is the sad thing.
Regardless of your thoughts on this intervention by the US, it would be better for everyone if we had an honest media.

FWIW, the BBC sees no crisis in London either.

In other words, going about business as usual like life under Chavez/Maduro.

I certainly wouldn’t argue against that.
Yet it should be noted that same is true of FOX.

Yes, considering his hand picked vice president has now been sworn in as president.
Interestingly enough, she has been very measured. That, coupled with the fact that Trump said at his presser that he didn't think the Machado lady could do the job, leads me to believe that Maduro's vp may have helped betray him and may be negotiating with the US government to be our puppet.
But we shall see. No one knows.

Hand picked!
Maybe she said look I don't want to die
I will do as you wish.

Or if Trump was honest. Instead we have been fed a steady diet of this Drug War® bullshite.

There will be many Venezuelans conceived tonight.

The same BBC with planned parenthood and ACLU commercials running between movies. Lol
