    Oh, you’re a neoliberal, that explains a lot. I guess you wont care about any actions that override another countries Democratic process when its funneled through NGOs or provides America a strategic advantage.

    Condescending conservatives who are naive enough to take the most milquetoast yahoo news explanation at face value are not going to be worth discussion, because yalls politics actually align with USAids mission plan.

      Wow that’s quite a leap. You’re the one who brought a Yahoo news article to the discussion. Now it’s not to be trusted? So bring one you do trust. And the entire point is that we are trying to respect the democratic process in Venezuela. Saying I have the army so I win is not a democratic process.

        Lets put it this way, If yahoo admits USAID is leveraging its funding to support a coup, it certainly is. The media all has a bias, whether its ap or BBC or aljazeera. I dont consume any of them uncritically.

            Im sorry man but what do you call it when someone gets zero votes, doesn’t even run in the election but sets up his own government and gets every western country to fund him and call him the leader of the country? Thats democracy ? Yall hopeless.
