1) While @Reuters , @hrw & many others falsely depict elections in #Venezuela as fraudulent, electoral authorities in #Ecuador have been banning & blocking Correaist parties & candidates. Now threaten to eliminate Correaist presidential ticket ( @ecuarauz & @rabascallcarlos ).
2) The party I focused on here (FCS) was finally banned from participating in Ecuador's 2021 elections. And Correaists joined FCS because they were not allowed to register their own party!

3) Correa himself was banned as @ecuarauz 's VP candidate after an appeals process that usually takes YEARS (without a pandemic going on) got rushed through in DAYS. Correa was sentenced for exerting a "psychic influence" on officials who took bribes Image
4) For a comprehensive and very readable overview of the Moreno government's assault on democracy, please read this piece by @GuillaumeLong

“By 2004, 579 Cubans were responsible for the health care of 75 per cent of
the Haitian population”
@HelenYaffe in her book “We are Cuba!”

A must read
“In 2017, Cuban medics were in 62 countries; in 27 of those (44 per cent)
the host government paid nothing, the remaining 35 paid according to a sliding
scale.118 For some countrie”
“President Obama did not end the Medical Parole Programme
until his fi nal days in offi ce in January 2017.”

Just like Biden keeping Cuba on the state sponsors of terrorism list until just before the handover to Trump.

Delcy has surrendered to the Nazis in Washington. The U.S. has its foot on the throat of her government which is flat on its back. This enraging spectacle is imo largely the fault of China & Russia, but also of course the cowardice of regional governments like Brazil and Mexico.
To be fair, without China (also Russia and Iran) Vzla under Maduro could not have defeated the murderous sanctions that Trumo/Biden put in place. That’s what forced Trump to escalate from lethal sanctions to the bombing of Caracas & kidnapping of Maduro.
But China & Russia have also made clear they were never going to make US military aggression against Vzla a red line like the USSR made a U.S. invasion of Cuba in the 1960s and 70s.

One-time Chavista @evagolinger turned against Maduro - and even Chavez- around 2014, soon after Maduro first took office in #Venezuela. She disappeared from this site but is now back and trying to undermine Delcy Rodríguez. Let’s talk about her 2018 book. Image
Written in 2018 and given a stupid title, it features a blurb from the now disgraced Noam Chomsky when he was long past his best years - in fact well into his tight with Jeffrey Epstein years. Image
The forward to her book, written by Marjorie Colin, contain a massive factual error that Golinger and her editors “missed”. Oil prices suffered a massive and sustained fall by the end of 2014, not 2016. Or was this a deliberate lie to booster the attack made on Maduro? Image

This guy cites Nazi propaganda from 1944 to deny how deeply enamoured the U.S. establishment was with Hitler before the war and even during the early years of WWI.
Let’s review some facts.

Thread
This flattering account of what Hitler was doing in Germany was published in the @nytimes . It was a review of Mein Kampf that was dismayed by Hitler’s Jew hatred but clearly would otherwise have loved the guy.

@nytimes These positive attitudes about Hitler’s rule in 1933 echo what I pointed out in my review of Mein Kampf

Please don’t take false comfort from polls showing that potential US military strikes on Venezuela are unpopular. Why do I say that? Is US public opinion irrelevant because the USA is a dictatorship?

Thread
Yes the U.S.A is a dictatorship but that doesn’t mean public opinion is completely irrelevant. However the U.S. has shifted to being less interested in “manufacturing consent” for its crimes (agreement with them) and much more about manufacturing fear of opposing them.
But the other thing is that the U.S. wall to wall acceptance - probably even in the public- for the lie that Maduro is a dictator who we should be happy to see Venezuelans overthrow. That dramatically reduces the political costs of military strikes even if they aren’t popular.

President Maduro Press conference happening right now in Caracas #Venezuela. I will comment on it on this thread
Going over history of Venezuela and noting that there is debate about whether Venezuela’s name has European on indigenous roots
Says there are still those with a Hitlerite supremacist agenda on Venezuela like in previous centuries and reminds people that the Catholic Church centuries ago contributed to genocidal supremacy
