U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the United States has ‘serious concerns’ about the announced result of Venezuela’s hotly contested presidential election that authorities say was won by incumbent Nicolas Maduro.
Speaking in Tokyo on Monday shortly after the announcement was made, Blinken said the U.S. was concerned that the result reflected neither the will nor the votes of the Venezuelan people. He called for election officials to publish the full results transparently and immediately and said the U.S. and the international community would respond accordingly.
So, a coup in a couple years then?
Trump already tried, it was pretty harebrained even by CIA standards.
Suddenly a far right military dictator that very much likes the US takes power in the near future. Wouldn’t be the first time, or second or third…
One of the problems with the Maduro government is that he keeps arming his working class supporters. Consequently, you have dipshit wanna-be commandos getting held up at gunpoint in small fishing towns.
And suddenly US media stops caring about all the bad things happening in Vuvuzela
Student protests is the go to these days
America, coup thyself.
Congratulations on coming out of your coma! There’s a lot you need to get caught up on…
Cool.
Edit: sorry to stoop to ad hominem to combat yours. Edited to remove.
It’s not an ad hominem to make a joke pointing out that there was an attempted coup in the US three years ago
Its ad hominem to say I’m in a coma, ableist. Yes I fucking know a coup was attempted. The US has a long history to the present about backing coups across the world. JFC.
Just to double down on my ableism, you may want a doctor to examine your paper thin skin
I guess go fuck yourself.
You must have missed the news. That was a few years ago.
Nope, didn’t miss that. Those assholes aren’t getting enough jail time. But that wasn’t the point.
It’s on the docket after the one in January, though if another one in the middle east comes up that takes precedence.
