‘Maduro Must Go!’ – Trump Administration Backs Venezuela Regime Change
The most elementary political awareness is lacking in the majority of American voters . . . is it a vast majority or an overwhelming majority or a super-substantial majority, or . . . that is the area of debate. Is blatant, homicidal hypocrisy really blatant, homicidal hypocrisy if no one notices anything? Is it the case of the tree making no sound in the forest when it falls, should none be there to hear?
S. jamieson , I think they may also be a super-majority of traumatized people. Its much like a 7 year old coming of age to the facts about Santa. A mass PTS-S anta trauma. Passed easily from last generation to this generation to the next.
Thanks for the heads up. The file should be there now.
Some bullet points on Venezuela:
Venezuelan oil leaves and then arrives in US gas tanks in four days so in supply chain parlance it is very significant and strategic as a source. Arabian oil has a two week time frame and its interruption would not be felt or relieved for that time period.
Maduro is as signed on to globalist agenda just as much as other nations under ‘Hasta 2030’.
Maduro under sanction and other globalist pressures has been privatizing social infrastructure as quickly as perceptions will allow, such as state owned transit.bus systems in order to get what cash he can to keep govt. operating. Like a deadly cut to a body the peripheries are sacrificed to keep the core organs functioning.
The Venezuelan govt. has plans for a stack and pack corridor for about 40% of the population there.
Conclusion: The Maduro/Venezuelan govt is as controllable as a Guaido govt. would be but the Maduro edition requires more external force to control it as desired than a Guaido govt would, as likely willing play ball as long as its core people’s bread gets justly buttered by the colonial resource extractors.
The real problem is that the common people there have been lead to believe that they are entitled to some benefit from the resources they just happen to living a top of and worse have come to see themselves as a united entity in their own interests. Having to some degree been partially raised to the state of slavery under socialism under a Guaido govt they will be returned to abject slavery as before. The present situation of a common consciousness is beyond the pale and must be stamped out with extreme prejudice. If Guaido gets the brass ring the people showing any socialist penchant there should expect the Pinochet treatment. So any hands off approach of allowing the Venezuelan people to deal with their own problems as they decide and to eventually see the errors of their socialist decisions is NOT in the cards.

Nice quote from Trump: We take half your oil, and you will be happy.
Sounds like a psychopath to me.
Abby: A lot of the food supply is control by the companies that want US control. Sanctions are also hurting people. US does not allow sale of oil (?). Most of the media is disinfo.
While many in the US are thinking that the socialism is the problem in the country, living in a dem. socialistic country myself, it is clear that the problems are not related to socialism at all.
The socialism system does increase the power of the already present corruption. And the corruption makes it easier for criminals. Criminals of which many are working with the US/CIA to destroy this country.
Interesting in the interview is that people are often discussing politics on the street. This means that the country could transform into a Anarchapulco like system. So I hope this will become the solution they can work towards.
My philosophical question is:
If the US invades to take the Venezuela oil, isn’t that the same as Saddam invading Kuwait? Can Europe start bombing the US, if they do the same thing? Or should we go in now and go kill the president and military regime?
Israeli troops in Brazil:

The US agenda seems to send in troops via other countries instead.
They just need a false flag like incident to start the war for oil and gold.
———————————
How many possible war fronts do we have now?
So we may see wars at 4 places already:
China sea/ Tadzjikistan
Syria& Iran
Ukraine
Venezuela
Additional options:
Africa
N-Korea
Civil instability:
Europe (excessive immigration with ISIS)
N-America (left/right/ “terrorists”)
Fake wars:
China hackers / China hacked electronics
Russian hackers / bots
(we are change:)

Excellent interview with JD & AM – Mike Prysner is also excellent with his perspective as an Iraq war vet.
Here is a complimentary interview between Jordan Claritin & Ben Norton that fills in some details

Interesting. I have a small amount of Ethereum. Thanks for the info.
Daniel McAdams is a five star, truth-telling communicator in my book.
I always enjoy listening to him.
As the decades roll on, I hope he continues the Ron Paul legacy.
I had a date with my ex-wife this past weekend.
She rarely does YouTube / online stuff.
However, I was thrilled to hear that she was now listening to the Liberty Report.
She still has a bad case of ‘Trumpitis-hope’, but we are both on the same page about many understandings.
Thanks for the anecdote. It adds perspective.
Thanks herrqlys!
One of the ways to discredit a govt. is to effect its ability to ensure food security, and other essentials like medicines. If a govt can’t provide for its people then it becomes a moot entity as far as being the central body of civil society. The clamps have been applied on the Venezuelan supply chain so tightly as to engineer a breakdown in civil society there as part of the effort aimed at regime change. Why is the bigger question as the oil is flowing and the Maduro govt. is implementing all the NWO protocols?
Russia and China, just as the USA, as cutouts are a part of this tag team effort as all are staunch members of the NWO. China has taken possession of the Venezuelan chemical company that produces the chemicals used to liquify the heavy oil, likely in return for debt forgiveness. Even Iran, as another deeply captured state, has been in Venezuela providing expertise in finding mineral deposits that will also likely end up being controlled by the one world resources management team. What saddens me is that the general population of Venezuela will not be allowed to come up in the world by benefiting from royalty revenues off the resources in their jurisdiction.

Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar (MN) and Elliott Abrams, President Donald Trump’s new special envoy to Venezuela at a hearing of the House Foreign Affairs committee on “Venezuela at a Crossroads.”
C-SPAN (5 minutes)

Omar’s statements…
“In 1991 you pleaded guilty to two counts of withholding information from Congress regarding your involvement in the Iran-Contra affair, for which you were later pardoned by President George H.W. Bush. I fail to understand why members of this committee or the American people should find any testimony that you give today to be truthful.”
“In that hearing, you dismissed as communist propaganda (a) report about the massacre of El Mozote of which more than 800 civilians, including children as young as 2 years old, were brutally murdered by U.S.-trained troops”
“Yes or no, do you think that massacre was a fabulous achievement that happened under our watch?”
“Yes or no, would you support an armed faction within Venezuela that engages in war crimes, crimes against humanity, or genocide if you believe they were serving U.S. interests as you did in Guatemala, El Salvador and Nicaragua?”
“Does the interests of the United States include protecting human rights and include protecting people against genocide?”
Elliott Abrams’ statement
“…the entire thrust of American policy in Venezuela (COUGH COUGH) is to support the Venezuelan’s people effort to restore democracy to their country….”
