On January 29th, Venezuela’s Supreme Court banned Self-Proclaimed Interim President Juan Guaido from leaving the country and froze all of his assets.
The Supreme Court, which according to media is loyal to Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, quickly approved the measures after Attorney General Tarek William Saab asked it to take “precautionary measures” against Guaido.
The opposition leader “is prohibited from leaving the country” until a preliminary investigation is complete after he “caused harm to peace in the republic”, court head Maikel Moreno said.
As leader of the National Assembly, Guaido has immunity against prosecution unless it comes from the Supreme Court.
Following the Supreme Court’s ruling US National Security Adviser John Bolton responded with a tweet of warning:
We denounce the illegitimate former Venezuelan Attorney General's threats against President Juan Guaido. Let me reiterate – there will be serious consequences for those who attempt to subvert democracy and harm Guaido.
— John Bolton (@AmbJohnBolton) January 29, 2019
The decision came shortly after Washington said it handed control of the country’s bank accounts in the US to Guaido, whom it recognizes as legitimate president.
The decision to seize Venezuelan assets and provide them under Guaido’s control was announced by the US State Department on January 29th. The decision was made by US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on January 25th.
“On January 25, Secretary of State Michael R. Pompeo certified the authority of Venezuela’s interim President Juan Guaido to receive and control certain property in accounts of the Government of Venezuela or Central Bank of Venezuela held by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or any other U.S. insured banks, in accordance with Section 25B of the Federal Reserve Act. This certification will help Venezuela’s legitimate government safeguard those assets for the benefit of the Venezuelan people,” the statement read.
In an interview with RIA Novosti published on January 30th, Nicolas Maduro said he was prepared to sit down for negotiations with the opposition.
“I’m ready to sit down at the negotiating table with the opposition so that we can speak for the good of Venezuela – for the world and its future,” he said.
Speaking about the possibility of attracting international mediators, Maduro noted that “there are several governments and organizations in the world that demonstrate their sincere concern about what is happening in Venezuela, they called for dialogue.” And the president would like them to “maintain a dialogue in Venezuela.”
In another part of the interview, Maduro claimed that Donald Trump wants to have him killed.
“Without a doubt, Donald Trump <…> told the Colombian government, the Mafia of Colombia to kill me. If something happens to me once, Donald Trump and Colombian President Ivan Duque will be responsible for everything that happens to me,” Maduro said.
In a speech to the Venezuelan Air Force, Maduro vowed to form a 50,000-strong paramilitary force to protect the nation.
“We are striving to reach two million militiamen by April 13th and to achieve the best organizational level of our defense units,” he said.
“Come on Bolivarian national militia! Let’s organize the people’s power so that it will be a great support, a great addition to the winning strategy of our armed forces,” the president said.
Meanwhile, CNN reported that defectors from the Venezuelan army are calling on the Trump administration to arm them.
“Former soldiers Carlos Guillen Martinez and Josue Hidalgo Azuaje, who live outside the country, told CNN they want US military assistance to equip others inside the beleaguered nation. They claim to be in contact with hundreds of willing defectors and have called on enlisted Venezuelan soldiers to revolt against the Maduro regime, through television broadcasts.
“As Venezuelan soldiers, we are making a request to the US to support us, in logistical terms, with communication, with weapons, so we can realize Venezuelan freedom,” Guillen Martinez told CNN.
Hidalgo Azuaje added: “We’re not saying that we need only US support, but also Brazil, Colombia, Peru, all brother countries, that are against this dictatorship.”
Furthermore, Juan Guaido himself gave an interview to CNN Espanol. He said that he is willing to consider amnesty for Maduro and the military top brass as part of a transition to democracy.
“Our people have suffered,” Guaido said. “We are waking up from a nightmare to the dream of rebuilding Venezuela.”
He also said that he was hoping to win the support of the military, who could help him to convince Maduro to step down.
“We are ready to do what is necessary to see democracy,” Guaido said.
However, he warned that he would not start a “false dialogue” with a regime that jails and tortures political opponents, something Maduro’s regime has been consistently accused of.

kill guaido!!
He should be taken care of with extreme prejudice. Problem Solved.
Exactly take away the American figurehead, it will take them months to find and bribe another suitable Venezuelan traitor.
“The only real power comes out of a long rifle.” (Joseph Stalin)
And give Bolton exactly what he wants? Brilliant plan dude. They’ll have another figurehead in about 15 min…
liberalize gun ownership to the militia, if they come then let it all burn down
a sure way to genocide……
AMERICAS PLAN Could BACKFIRE , VENEZUELA PEOPLE Would Not ALLOW USA INVASION …..BIG MISTAKE
If Guido Bandido gets stolen Venezuelan assets, he can be prosecuted for receiving stolen property. He should also be impeached. Guido Bandido looks like Obama, but without the brains.
what about the billions that gone missing from the national oil company whaen chavez ruled?same amount appears to be in his daughters bank accounts abroad. so dont start about stealing the wealth of Venezuela…..and not everything is propaganda.
Agreed..the USA should not get involved as the CIA is the most corrupt organization I can think of but there is a lot of corruption in Venezuela and it is not just the CIA’s efforts that have turned the country into a complete disaster.
Are you spreading gossip without links?
well giving link is worthless since you can always call it fake news or propaganda…..
Not if it is Reuters agency they would never lied now would they ?!? That forefront of MSM Western propaganda!
Or would U.S. lie ? That cradle of “freedom” home of “exceptional”, “indispensable” and “brave” people who courageously would destroy any wedding, funeral or any kind of gathering of the Muslims in some far away land million kilometers away… with their drones
you are correct about that. but i think that although the fact is that we live in the ‘news’ era, were information travels the globe n just seconds etc, the truth is very difficult to find. all media agencies are just repeating what their bosses say. white is black and vice versa. so it takes a lot of hard work to find the truth.
Yes and no. All you have mentioned are factual problems but conclusion is not accurate. Finding the truth is much easier than it seams at first sight. Western Main Stream Media in this “‘news era” by far dominates all voices that fight for the truth even when all voices combined. What MSM often doesn’t do is that they never try to cover their “tracks” of fabricated propaganda on the long and very long term.
They never try hard to persist with their fabricated “truths” if time shows them wrong later on. If it shows that those fabrications don’t correspond with the reality. Simply because those truths are not any longer actuality. Who cares today that Weapons of Mass destruction were LIE made only to invade Iraq and kill 1 million people in Iraq in the process? not many people really because today it is NOT any longer to talk about those things when there is avalanche of other NEWS with new ready made Western MSM propaganda! And that goes for everything else! Today we know that “100 000 killed Kosovars” and stories of Milosevic massacres were preposterous LIES. Today world knows that US have been helping spreading terrorism and terrorists ever since Afghanistan in Bosnia, Iraq, Syria etc. List of US crimes or collaborating with criminals are ENDLESS yet it is not actuality because people are now bombarded with NEW LIES about Venezuela! The game goes on! Truth about yesterday lies of Western MSM is easy to find but not many are looking for those truths. Yesterdays crimes are there in the open but people are saturated with NEW NEWS LIES incessantly and do NOT care about right or wrong of yesterday!
Society is programmed to have SHORT MEMORY attention span.
i totally agree with each and every word you wrote above. no objection not even a single one. you emphasized the problem. people just dont care anymore. they are cozy in their everyday programm ,they just open the tv, internet whatever and read what THEIR opinion must be. ‘His masters’ voice’. and indeed the Wmsm dominates worldwide ‘information’ spreading. on the other hand you have some very few media that try to balance things. the majority i must add fail just because they are of the same style. a mirror reflection of western media. thats my point. western media says black they say white. pick a subject. a plain simple subject….solar power….if western media says its good then a mass outrage will start just because they have to say the opposite . thats why i say its difficult to find the truth……its easy to find a different opinion but also as biased one. the truth always is between them and hard to find.
And that is, of course more US propaganda bullshit.
what im trying to say is that there is propaganda from both sides. you dont have to choose the narative you like. just look at the facts. im very concerned that Venezuela with become a bloodbath soon and Maduro has a great responsibility for that. he is the President ,US is not the only one to blame.
Freemasons democracy.
Americans are so ignorant and stupid that they live in a democracy. Democracy in the US is and illusion. The US is fascist regime control by the corporations. The US president is nothing more a puppet.
democracy any where they say it exist, it is an illusion not only US. beside the fact as it is proven fact is the worst system a country to run with.
democracy works in small countries…very small…or in towns. were everyone is responsible for his actions. as in ancient Athens. no in the whole world a few only vote….the magority doesnt care. and from those who vote most are ttally ignorant about politics. so in conclusin we agree….the best system to run a country is ‘aristocracy’ in my opinion….and as many philosophers said….by aristocracy we mean the ‘Aristos’ not the ones with the money….but the best, the elite those who have expertise…..you agree?
I agree that the only time the population was safe and happy was when the heroes of the country was the ones defending them and fight for their well being. Yes I agree the αριστοι of a country are the only ones qualified to lead a nation and to make it bring out its best self.
But athinean democracy is what also is today american democracy. Was for the few by the few ruling every one else.
What would Simon Bolivar do? Fight and put all traitors in reeducation camps.
Bolton the Chicken Hawk should lead any potential invasion of Venezuela ,as he seems to be very fond of war and genocidal destruction.The international Criminal Court should commence proceedings against him and his zionist warmongering lunatic neocons.Enough is Enough.
Scumbag Bolton should get a rifle, a parachute and lead the invasion himself. All chicken hawks and warmongers are cowards by nature. They do have the cojones to participate in war.
Usa covers its arse. Criminal court does not have jurisdiction over Israel and the USa . Funny that isn’t it.
The public needs to be thoroughly informed about Venezuela. Global Research has the most complete information: http://www.newsilkstrategies.com/news–analysis/the-other-side-of-the-venezuela-story There is one more detail that has been missed. Way back in 2009, Chavez bought a slew of Russian made arms, including the S-300 system, from Russia. This system is a deterrent to a US attack. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-venzuela-chavez/venezuela-buys-powerful-missiles-with-russian-loan-idUSTRE58C1YR20090914
Trouble is the media is owned by Jews, and the Jews spread whatever lies the US wants, in exchange for US money and protection for Israel.
No it is not propaganda Sinbad Hugo Chavez started buying lots of weapons from Russia years ago.. They have one of the strongest armies in the South America They have excellent air defense with older S-300 and modern BUK-M2 and old S-125 Also excellent air-force with 23 SU-30MK2 which are very capable Russian multi-role jet fighters and 16 F-16A older US jets which is plenty for the country of their size! They have plenty of T-72B1 (modern basic version of tank that Russia also uses in upgraded version as T-72B3M) Colombian army is not even close to them and it is not surprising if they don’t seek conflict with Venezuela
Problem is will Venezuela actually use the S300 . Or will Russia stop it from using them so Americans don’t get “secret info”. This is a joke now! Use the bloody S 300 in Syria!
Why on Earth would Russia do that?!!? It is completely different situation also ! These S-300 are BOUGHT and long time ago while Syrian S-300 were gift and gift one can give under certain CONDITIONS ( I do not say that Russia has made any conditions to Syria I do not know that ! ) But Russia can NOT condition weapons system that was SOLD to Venezuela long before this crisis! It is NOT their business what Venezuela is doing with that S-300 and I doubt very much that they LIMIT or condition all other weapons bought from Russia on credit and NOT PAID yet. Also BUK-M2 Venezuela has are excellent medium range AA system not to be underestimated and kept in the shadow of older S-300.
I am TOTALLY for that S-300PMU2 is going to be FINALLY USED against Israel ! And I will celebrate with everybody here when we all see Jew jets falling down from the sky !
Assad actually wanted and bought the S-300 systems long ago but Putin caving to Bibi prevented Russia from installing until Israhell brought down Russian jet
I know that thanks for reminding me. They did the same with Iran (because of UN sanctions and also because they wanted to find favor with US and Israel) That was as you probably know re-mediated with Iran by finally delivering them what Iranians have paid for long time before that. They have delivered to them the most modern S-300PMU2 and some other stuff to “compensate “delay. Relations with the countries are like relations of the people with their ups and downs …
To conclude; Russia did too many favors to Israel under the pressure of their own Jewish lobby and illusion of “special” relations due to the fact that huge majority of Israelis are of USSR – Russian origin … That illusion is DEAD now. Today Syria has the best air defenses not only in the Middle Eastern region but much further than that. Israel air attacks have NO FUTURE in Syria any more ,once Syria start using their S-300.
You have to look at Russia’s position realistically, the USA is a much larger military power, and getting into a no holds barred war with the USA would be a disaster for Russia.
Putin is like a fisherman who went out to catch some dinner, and hooked a Great White shark. He has a light line, and has to play the fish, tire the fish, or it will get away. You want Russia to play the game like the US, with all guns blazing, but it simply does not have the power to do that, except with nuclear weapons
Regardless of a few setbacks Russia has outmaneuvered the US time and time again.
You are setting me up by on one hand putting some words in my mouth, totally distorting presentation of my comment and on other hand you are exaggerating things. Even though I never was the trigger happy guy you are presenting me to be the one! And my comment was NOT at ALL talking about that ! And you are forcing on me that story to “convince” me not to underestimate US even though I never said anything to give you the reason to do that !?! Your comment does not show good intentions and that is something I would never expect from guy like you.
Now – exaggeration in US power:
1) I do not agree that (country to country) US is so much superior (not even in conventional weapons) to be able to brake resistance of Russia in total conventional war (ONLY) US has quantity advantage but the quality is on Russian side now. New weapons like Avangard and Kinzhal (together with Kalibr and other..) are GAME CHANGERS And those would be able to destroy every command base, airport, all defenses and sink literally everything US can send against the Russia. And S-350 soon S-500 will come out and that also will only confirm the quality advantage of Russian precision missile weapons on all levels and in all branches of army. With more than superior AA defenses Russia has nothing to fear from anybody including U.S.
2) In nuclear war Russia is also above everything US has to offer and that distance will only grow in short term. ALL Russian missiles from short range Iskander to all others are in general are; all more modern all with variable trajectory warheads all multi-warhead + decoys (except Satan) all more powerful than U.S. missiles and all as precise as US warheads. + new Mach 27 Avangard + limitless range cruise missile+ nuke Kinzhal “carrier killer” Of course MAD would be guaranteed with bigger chance of survival in Russia than US though.
If having only US as enemy I doubt that Russia would ever back off and not defend their interests . The problem is there is NATO there are many others as well.
Your Hemingway “fisherman” allegory I don’t feel like commenting at all. I don’t think that Putin’s objective ever was or ever will be to make fishing trophy out of U.S. So I don’t understand why did you start that story in the first place
This is where Bolton-stupidity helps the legitimate govt. of VZ, by threatening the Chinese investments so directly, he makes it certain that China will extend credit (actually, money to Russia) BOTH for military items and Russian wheat. More than 10% of VZ food comes in the latter form and US is unlikely to do direct blockade.
China russia could deliver humanitarian aid
Yes, this has been done in generous terms, not aid as such though.
Some bs why we all should be made inferior and subject to a very small minority of people. Isn’t it the reason early Americans declared independence from GB?
The British wanted American corporations to pay tax, not the people, so the corporations led by one of Americas richest men(George Washington) started the war of Independence. By the end of the war, most of what was America back then had been passed from public ownership into the hands of the early American Plutocrats.
Jews own too much of the media in Venezuela too? Or are you refering to in general.
Jews own the media globally, China is the only country free of the Jewish scourge, and look at how their country is prospering.
So is Russia.
Most of the Russian oligarchs are Jewish, because the US appointed them.
The major reason of Chinese “prospering” is not absence of “yellow” Jews but GREED of the Western corporations, banks.. who massively transferred high tech factories , technology from the West to China to squeeze maximum profits on low wage working force production and maximum prices obtained on the markets of rich Westerners.
Thus 2 anomalies have been created global DEBT of “rich” debt addicted consumer countries is created (with US as the worst among them) and OBSCENELY rich… super rich corporations, banks, bankers and other people (even more enriched on orgy of banking speculations of totally rigged market)
This truth is well known even among the birds and bumble bees.
Because capitalism is a Pyramid scheme the coming crash is inevitable.
Mostly in America, which is more Jewish than Israel, but also generally, a lot of the UK media like The Guardian and The Independent are Jewish owned. Even the Asia Times is a Jewish owned publication.
To the Venezualan people!!
This is the exact same trick in the same goddamned order that usa has done to Syria, dont fall for it!!!
worked ok for Cuba and 911, bring them all HERE the USA is OPEN BORDERS!!!
Guiado should be shot from the lamposts out of hand in public. No court case needed. It was public treason. Venezuela will not gain from appearing to be a “nice guy”.
Yes I am totally agree with you this traitor mus be excuted without wasting time and money for his trial
‘We denounce the illegitimate former Venezuelan Attorney General’…’
Wow, Bolton is so bat-shit crazy he is claiming to appoint Venezuela’s most senior judicial bureaucrats.
Yeah, America does that all the time, in lots of countries.
Better arm and mobilize a lot more than that. And yesterday.
Why, will the US nuke Venezuela? Will the US send in US troops, how many American dead would it take to turn the American public against Trump?
So the US will do what it always does when there is real fighting to be done, it will hire foreign mercenaries. ISIS and al Qaeda would not last 5 minutes in Venezuela, so that leaves Americas Columbian mercenary army. Trouble with the Columbian mercs, is the US sent them to Yemen, and the Houthis have been bleeding them, how many are left I wonder?
colombian regular army and soldiers are inefficients and stupids. they took more than 3 decades to defeat the marxist terrorist guerrilla. Not even to mention the mercenaries how you quoted…hahaha the Brazilian army had not a war in more than 100years, Only their internal fight agaisnt narco favelas mafia give them some urban experience
The Colombian army was always handicapped because the government was corrupt, as billions of cocaine fueled narco dollars flooded the country. Of which a considerate part went to those socalled marxist guerillas. It’s hard to fight a war against a well funded enemy when you yourself are hardly getting any funding, and your political leaders are screwing you over to line their own pockets. And that’s excluding the fact that its hard to fight an insurgency in a country that is mostly jungles and mountains.
In the end they must have done something right, because the FARC would not have come to the negotiating table and surrendered their weapons and lands out of the goodness of their own hearts.
Maybe Farc were persuaded to come to the table for this operation against Venezuela !!?
Cocaine production has increased since the US took over policing drug production in Columbia. Coincidentally heroin production has increased in Afghanistan since the US occupied Afghanistan. Even freakier, the Golden Triangle blossomed during the US invasion of Vietnam.
Naturally, war is always good for smuggling and trade in illegal goods. When central authorities are too busy on killing each other, law enforcement takes a giant step backwards. As a Dutch saying says, it’s as old as the way to Rome.
Especially when the CIA will fly it anywhere in the world on Air America.
Regards the threat from Columbia, it wont be the troops the US sends in, it will be the the Marxist terrorist guerrillas.
US, England and France = axis of evil
you mean england and colonies dont you.
Bingo.
France/UK/US, FUKUS.
No room for compromises or idling. Venezuela must defend itself against the zio-imperialist virus!
I am sure they are doing just that.
αδερφε δεν φανταζομαι να εισαι υπερ του Μαδούρο?
Why? Is Maduro so different to Rightist compradors in Greece?
please elaborate….cant understand how you compare an obsessive communist with the right wing ?maybe you mean far -right like golden dawn? well there are differences if you mean that…but they are very much alike as well……

I am not choosing, as I have nothing to chose. And you have many things wrong in your mind because you have chosen already to be with who ever is destroying you, if I judge from what you telling me.
maybe is time instead of repeating western propaganda to learn what reality is and stop promoting the BS west is saying. In short you have no idea what you talking about and to my opinion you have a lot to learn. And kid I am follower of no one as you obviously are and a political follower at that.
As for NWO the ones who attempt to impose it, same as the ones who promote it, can take it and stick it where the sun dont shine. NWO has destroying your own motherland and trying to eliminate her from the map and you telling me all you say to me it appears you still in a coma as far reality goes.
you have the entirely wrong idea about me friend. you think im with SYriza?for Gods sake no way. tell me were you disagree with me and we can talk……but obviously you have really misunderstood me.
No you are wrong I dont think you are with syriza, I mention them along with the rest errand boys in greece for you to understand how you sound like. You speak like an american educated puppet, no offense mean here, parroting what many politicians in greece and generally in west parroting under the directive not of americans as they are dead brains but their masters who created the colony called UnitedShitheadsAmericans, in sort USA.
if you carry and promote their mentalities no matter what one call itself to feel right, none the less, we come to the conclusion of same shit different name. You attempted to insinuate you know who I am and what I think, by making questions and then proceed to explain me what madouro is with out having the slightest idea who the man s or what he is fighting for, by telling me verbatim what the americans claim he is.
And to me is like describing what they outsiders think also about the greek general population, as they can not in their peanut butter brains separate an Ellina from a resident of Greece that call themselves greeks though they are not. Intelligent people first clear their back yards and then go around judging others who indeed fight for the freedom and well being of their populations against the western sickness.
Not knowing who you are or what you stand for I can only judge you from your posts and words you using. And base on that I have.
as you said…..from what you say from your post i have great respect for your opinion. in regards for the subject im just trying to emphasize here that there are to sides on this by media..western considers Maduro ….you know what and those that are against US consider him a hero. im just saying he is neither…..im just looking at plain facts…..the situation in Venezuela…yoy say you know the country well. when was it better?before the chavez era or after?simple question….im looking forward for your answer honestly.
I know few countries due to the business I used to do from my group. 25 years of global traveling teach you a lot of things about the nations you visit and yes I am very familiar with america both south and north minus canada never been there, just passed few times for a day or two.
Same as I know russia very well spend a lot of time there and couple of ME countries.
Everything you have just said is the mainstream narrative as put out by American gov and Soros Lefties. Nowhere do you discuss that the American embargo has an enormous effect on peoples’ wellbeing?
Tell me ? Do you think Greece wont starve if the Eu/America steals its gold deposits and embargoes all its imports and exports? Will you then say the poverty is due mainly to Party A policies etc. I say American strangling of the economy is to blame in the main. Very simple.
ok let me comment on each one ….first the embargo. US still buys enormous quantities of oil from Venezuela. strange very hypocritic if you ask me. then if you want to go to war choose the right generals to lead you and second, dont forget your rifle. Venezuela hasnt obviously generals just obsessives who have no idea about how economy works. if you want to fight the system you must know how the system works…..just check Russia and China…..Russia has global sunctions imposed. so what?Putin knows the game and doesnt give a damn. China?they have so many US bonds that they cant touch them. So. Why did the Venezuelan leaders didnt ask for their help?because they considered themselves great leaders that will dominate the world. so simple. second. US has stolen Venezuelas gold?really?i will contradict that with the information that the oil company has many millions of $ missing and strangly again the same amount appears on chavezs daughter bank accounts. So its really whos ‘narative’ you want to hear.
Have you or do you live in South America?
No I dont live in SA, I have been to Venezuela more times you go in a year to your toilet, during Chavez era, as well lately for business, beside having 4 companies there. Anything else you like to know? because here it seems you all know about everything, with out ever leaving the couch in your living room and I am speaking with you, not about you, as I dont know you from Adam.
So now according to the Neocon Führer, the Venezuelan Attorney General and the Supreme Court are illegitimate because they don`t roll over and dance to the Neocon tunes.
Neo -cohens.
Neocon Fuhrer lol!
Yes my thoughts exactly. Bit rich coming from a country that prides itself for upholding the law and championing itself for providing justice and freedom for all, yet isn’t a signatory to the international court.
Neither the international criminal court = means, they can`t be tried for warcrimes.
EASY to FIX there send YOUR STARVING ,diseased,insane,filthy ,uneducated,street gangs,released prisoners and troops desquised as peons to the USA we accept ALL don’t worry about whittie trump killed them off!!!
para-military to do the dirty work?be careful who you support guys.dont get influenced by politics…..major crimes against humanity start the same way. in a democracy you dont need para-military forces.
You sound like an Interventionist Sorosiser. Useful “Lefty”allies to Americunt Imperialists.
never heard of that,…..i’ll do a little research….sounds interesting…..left that supports american imperialists..sounds like they need medical attention….
The left in US DOES SUPPORT REGIME CHANGE
is there really a left party in US?didnt know about that. they must be about 0.000001% there.
“We are striving to reach two million militiamen by April 13th…” Not sure if something got lost in translation here or what? But somebody should tell Nico that 1) this is probably way too slow to help repel an attack that could come in February. And 2) is it really a good idea to create a huge militia in your country that is actively being targeted for regime-change?
I am surprised if Maduro does not have sleeper cells in the Us. Once Us start something then surprise ” incidents” start happening in the US.

I have the official title for the 2nd edition of George Orwell’s ‘1984’. – The naming decision was made after a tweet that impressed Orwell ‘Let me reiterate – there will be serious consequences for those who attempt to subvert democracy and harm Guaido.”.
With such an achievement, the 2nd edition of ‘1984’ has only one truly deserving person so it is to be named in honor of ‘John Bolton’
This is not Bolton’s only achievement recently. Bradberry’s Fahrenheit 451 sequel has been announced; ‘Farenheit 451: Bolton’s Hot War’ and the quote below is taken from the sequel:
“Is it true that long-ago diplomats put fires out instead of going to start them?”
Juan Guido Bandido, the US/CIA installed asset, trained and educated in the US, IS A TRAITOR TO HIS NATION AND TO THE PEOPLE THIS WILL BE YOUR NEW US INSTALLED DICTATOR THAT WILL HAND VENEZUELAN OIL WEALTH TO THE US AND WHO WILL GATHER A FORCE TO OPPRESS THE PEOPLE OF VENEZUELA. HANDS OFF ZIONIST AGENT OF ISRAHELL .BOLTON
