Trump said the US will run Venezuela for the coming time. The US has today couped a country.
Thing is, will it? The Venezuelan state still seems to be running itself, with vice president and ministers still occupying their posts. Maduro himself isn’t some embodiment of PSUV and the party can continue existing and governing without him.
Simply kidnapping Maduro without leaving behind boots on ground does very little besides intimidation. That can work for extracting concessions, but not for ruling a country. Either the rumoured second attack is coming soon or this might be negotiation tactics for full privatisation of the oil but leaving the government be.
I agree, they want to start some sort of civil war by capturing Maduro and running a parallel goverment likely with the nobel prize witch.

Delcy Rodriguez seems alive and well, and not enthused with collaboration with the US.
I wouldn’t trust Rubio until any evidence comes out of Venezuela. There’s no official confirmation of her being sworn in as president (official outlets still refer to her as vice president, which is how it legally works) and she’s still a proponent of Chavismo. At any rate, even if she turns coat there’ll at least be a power struggle with PSUV, specially with the MoD announcing full scale mobilisations.
Edit:
As I wrote that, there was an update
Vicepresidenta de Venezuela: «aquí hay un solo presidente, y se llama Nicolás Maduro»
Trump can claim whatever he likes, he is not the arbitor of truth.
So, did they really managed their coup? Like the whole hope is lost, and all the build up was for nothing? (Like all the equipment that were bought, all the people, etc).
Im having a mental breakdown over this circus of the world and i wanna hear someone killing imperialism along with its soldiers
The US will not say anything that remotely seems like a weakness so take with a grain of salt whatever their parrots in suits say.

And Iran’s nuclear program was “obliterated.”
When I heard that interview of Machado saying “he has to go”, I had memories of every single time I heard that phrase about Assad. I thought it was impossible then, and I thought it was impossible for Maduro, now I don’t believe any anti imperialist country is safe. Not Yemen, not Iran, not even Russia at this point. The Empire is still this capable and they’ve shown it again.
Iran feels like it’s only a matter of time.
Again
Today feels like living in a completely insane alternate reality. Kidnapping a foreign president and charging him on crimes based on another country’s laws is just insane beyond words. And all western leaders are having piss luke warm reactions. I don’t care anymore.
Practice proper discipline. Don’t share unsubstantiated news, don’t believe unconfirmed reports. 10 Twitter accounts reposting the exact same video is not confirmation of events.
Don’t trust the enemy to tell you what’s happening, wait for confirmation from blue side. In a revolutionary situation we carry on as usual and wait for our side to give the go-ahead on how to react. Practice it.
100,000% this.
Also I’ve seen a massive amount of sharing unsubstantiated news, believing unconfirmed reports, and 10 Twitter accounts reposting the exact same video being posted here in this megathread.
Please everyone. Protest against this illegal action from the US.
I hope Venezuela becomes a graveyard for US soldiers.
I hope usa becomes a graveyard for US soldiers. In my dream Russia gave Venezuela an oreshnik and they have targeted the Reddit astroturfing base in Florida.
Death to America
I’ve been extremely busy for this last year. I almost never even get a chance to long in. But logged in tonight just to say this:
DEATH TO AMERIKKKA. Glass that Fourth Reich shithole.
Peace will never be possible as long as the Great Satan exists.
Amerikkka is an existential threat to the world and must be dealt with accordingly.
Sorry for having no chill. I can’t take this shit anymore.
My heart goes to Venezuela and its people. I hope this will end in Venezuela’s ultimate victory and as fast as possible. Fuck the us, 2026 should be its final year.
Mexico and Columbia’s militaries should be having meetings ASAP.
Wasn’t there a leak recently that trump originally wanted a war with mexico first but for whatever reason Venezuela was an easier opportunity?
Starting a war at their border carries consequences.
And the US has tens of millions of Mexicans living in it with lots of family still in Mexico. That’s a nice way to get yourself redacted as a politician.
Mexico just put tariffs on china to suck up to usa. Sheinbaum is nice and all but she is a dem-suc and will do exactly what Kautsky did, she’ll side with imperialists to protect the fatherland.
In her defense she’s right on the empire’s border.
🇻🇪The Venezuelan Defense Minister stated that Venezuela “will not negotiate, will not surrender, and will ultimately win”.
“Will not negotiate” is good to see. Empire cannot be negotiated with, you must use force to defend yourself from it, it’s the only way
Gonna pin this thread for now to prevent multiple posts
Trump has claimed to have Maduro as a hostage. Any news updates should be posted underneath this comment for visibility purposes.
Fuck Trump and fuck the White House for this.
I hate how everything goes America’s way so easily
For the most part, it doesn’t. They can kill civilians but their coup attempts have failed and will fail. The US empire is crumbling and this is only going to speed it up.
Think they’ll hold him for more than the 47hrs they held Chavez? I bet Maduro is out in 30, not because I think Maduro is more bad ass than Chavez just because I think usa is weaker than it was back then.
Don’t forget that the empire is more unhinged now, so they could possibly even kill him as a show (but that would be the end of empire 100%)
I absolutely wouldn’t put it past this administration to Livestream a public hanging
They hanged Saddam and bragged about it (obviously not the same, Maduro’s so much better), but that depends how insane Trump’s looking.
Btw USA advised it’s citizens to leave Russia because of “threats of terrorism” - like they did hours before the Crocus City Hall massacre last year. So empire would probably attempt another mass killing in Russia in a few days.
The imperialists probably tried killing Putin a few days back, on that attack at one of his houses, so now that that didn’t work but that they ‘took down’ another one of Russia’s allies they will feel emboldened to do whatever they want until someone stands up to them again.
Nuclear holocaust before the end of the week 💀
I know it’s mediate, but still…
Unlimited death to Yankeeland. Fucking shitheads.
Embarrassing response from EU
Kallas is a Nazi so this is unsurprising
I don’t read/hear a statement from Kallas every day but every time I do, it is in the running for the stupidest thing I have read/heard that day. The only thing she is good for is reminding me that my brain is not yet cured of the habit of thinking sexist slurs.
No matter how many times I say this, it’s not enough. Death to the United States!
Once again coming back: you know how bad the US is right now if pictures of Venezuala’s refugees in the US over at r/news and r/pics get a bad rep lol. If two of the most astroturfed subs don’t agree with this you’re down bad.
