Today the Embassy's DefenseCollective was able to bring food & medicines to the compound, opponents attacked @medeabenjamin & @ArielElyseGold. Guess who the secret service and the federal police wanted to charge them for assault? To them.

The official line parroted by the media was that the uprising was by the Venezuelan masses, but everything John Bolton and Elliot Abrams said suggests that the failed coup was made in Washington.

@TomWalkom not bad thestar.com/opinion/star-c… … but @NicolasMaduro never prevented aid entering Venezuela. Just USAID, which contained nails & razor wire ! Venezuela has a government not a 'regime' . Trudeau is a puppet of USA just as @jguaido the Guided One is.

The🇻🇪opposition doesn't even try to hide its blatant racism.They are proud white racists,descendants of European oligarchs who colonized Latin America & are angry that a govt has dared to try to resist neo-colonialism and be independent
By @bodhibrian
No josh . Actual Venezuelans: the legit govt, gave @codepink and others permission to enter the embassy and protect it.Venezuelans outside when they break in trash the place : that's a crime right?
