Deranged Rhino Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 This is long over due and a direct shot across the bow of the last administration. Walk through the implications. https://mobile.twitter.com/W7VOA/status/1123211910420357122 valarie Jarrett, you're on notice. 3
Tiberius Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 I sure hope the WH gets this one right. If I remember correctly G W Bush had Chavez removed and it caused a big up roar. "Speak softly and carry a big stick" was a quote originally made because of Venezuela and Germany, I think. ● Violent clashes erupted in the capital, where thousands of protesters swarmed the streets and forces loyal to Maduro responded with force; seven people reported wounded. ● Maduro said the military has remained loyal; government leaders denounced a “coup” attempt by a “reduced group of military officials” and warned of a “counterattack.” ● Guaidó appeared with mentor Leopoldo López, freed from house arrest, urged “nonviolent” action and claimed to have a list of military officials who support him. ● A Guaidó spokesman said there were no plans to advance on the presidential palace; Maduro’s whereabouts were not publicly known.

Hugo Chavez died in office in 2013. Are you trying to be funny or just that ignorant?

But the first instance of him using it as a "foreign policy principle" was the Venezuela crisis in 1902. What's funny is that Tibs is almost correct, but still wrong enough to look like a complete ***** asshat. 1
