Venezuela #22Aug | The Supreme Court -TSJ- could issue a decision today stating that Maduro won the presidential election despite the CNE refusal to show the voting records and the disaggregated results. TSJ lacks authority to carry out the counting, and has blocked the opposition from having access to the judicial file and to the evidence the TSJ was allegedly reviewing before issuing the decision, disregarding the most basic rules of due process. Today’s decision wouldn’t be recognized by the opposition, nor by the EU, US, and most governments of the LAC region. ⬇️
The Venezuelan Supreme Court is reviewing the country’s July 28 presidential election results.
SLP fellow @nizarUCAB tells @elmundoes that the judicial process in this case “violates the most basic principles of due process,” as opposition parties have not had access to the file and have not been allowed to participate in the procedure.

Wednesday 22 August 1962, the French president Charles de Gaulle survived what would be the most serious of 30 assessination attempts on his life.
This assessination attempt on Charles De Gaulle happened in Clamart, commune in the south west of Paris, France.
President de Gaulle and his wife Yvonne were headed to a Paris airport to fly to their summer home inColombey-les-Deux-Églises, commune in the Haute-Marne department in north-eastern France.
When the presidential black Citroën DS 19 and its motorcade passed two vehicles, machine-gun fire raked the fast-moving Citroën DS 19.
The "Organisation Armée Secrète" (OAS) had targeted Charles de Gaulle for assassination.
As many as a dozen gunmen opened fire, as many as 16 were arrested. Nine stood trial, and three were sentenced to death.
What’s undeniable, Charles de Gaulle and his wife were saved by:
• The excellent presidential chauffeur Francis Marroux
• The presidential car, a Citroen DS 19, known as “La Deesse” or “The Goddess”.
• Despite the fact that all four tires were punctured, de Gaulle's driver was able to accelerate out of the skid and got De Gaulle and his wife to safety in one piece.
Charles de Gaulle and his wife Yvonne could escape unharmed despite the presidential car was being hit several times and bullets were passing within a few inches of de Gaulle’s head.
A hail of 140 bullets, most of them coming from behind, killd two of the president’s motorcycle bodyguards.
The OAS, "Organisation Armée Secrète" had targeted de Gaulle in retaliation for de Gaulle's initiatives to give Algeria back to the Algerians.
De Gaulle later would joke about this assessination attempt on his life with the words “They are such bad shots.”

“Music is the silence between the notes.”
