TIME’s new cover: In an exclusive interview, acting Venezuelan president Delcy Rodríguez insists she is not surrendering Venezuelan sovereignty to the United States. Yet Venezuela has become a de facto vassal state to achieve economic recovery https://t.co/TEIZkg3cG6
“While the intelligence validated significant concerns…it didn’t definitively confirm large-scale electronic fraud was successfully executed in specific Venezuelan elections, with CIA's baseline assessments maintaining that other factors better explained electoral outcomes.”
Holding companies owned by President Trump have registered trademark rights in Venezuela covering a range of household-related goods and services, from construction services to towels, toothbrush holders, and candlesticks.
21% of Americans are Boomers, but 61% of U.S. Senators are Boomers.
21% of Americans are Millenials, but just 5% of U.S. Senators are Millenials.

What the hell is this? There's literally an indicted narco-terrorist with a $25 million reward on his head (Cabello) sitting at the table with the U.S. government. It's akin to our generals smoking a hookah with Bin Laden. Truly the Russification of America.
Abdul El-Sayed on Gaza: “This is a moral Rorschach test. If you can’t identify the systematic murder of tens of thousands of kids as a genocide and then you wanna say you’re a fighter for human rights and dignity, that’s just hypocrisy”

Thomas Massie just introduced the "No Funds for Israel" bill to cut $3.3 billion in U.S. military aid to Israel.
Every member of Congress will have to vote yes or no. Keep sending billions of our tax dollars to fund a war that has killed tens of thousands of civilians, or vote to stop it.
The American people deserve to know where their representatives stand. Which will it be, Debbie? @DWStweets https://t.co/inWDuZWhYn
Venezuela’s “grand housing mission” delivered government-built apartments to thousands of families after the socialist revolution of President Hugo Chávez.
Now, the homes have been reduced to a mountain of cement and rubble. https://t.co/qD1jEkbcnn
Para la diáspora venezolana es fundamental entender que es mejor mandar dinero desde el exterior que pensar en envíos de insumos, cuando no están garantizadas sus rutas aéreas o marítimas de carga, la seguridad en las aduanas ni la distribución en el territorio.
Venezuela 🇻🇪: several housing projects in La Guaira collapsed at the foundation due to the earthquake.
The Chavista government had been warned for years that the cheap flats it was building were not safe in case of an earthquake.
The Supreme Court’s decision on TPS comes against the backdrop of twin quakes in Venezuela, the type of natural disaster that might prompt a review for TPS by DHS.
As of now, DHS is not planning to reverse course and extend protections to Venezuelans in the US, I'm told.
