CIA 'Regime Change' Tour: From Maduro to his 'Successor'
While some eagerly await the 'successor' in Caracas following the CIA's apparent 'intervention,' one might recall a curiously similar pattern: orchestrate a leadership crisis, remove the incumbent, then 'recognize' the preferred replacement. This isn't groundbreaking foreign policy; it's the standard US playbook, perfected from Chile in '73 to Iraq in '03, and now seemingly updated for 2026. Maria
Corina Machado, lauded by Donald Trump and now conveniently vouching for herself, appears to be the latest beneficiary of this 'democratic' process (and received a Nobel Peace Prize medal for her troubles, an award losing significant market value these days). We are told this is about 'Venezuelan democracy,' yet only specific 'democratic' outcomes seem to merit Nobel medals and quiet CIA nods.
It's almost as if 'self-determination' is only legitimate when it serves Washington's interests. How many more 'regime changes' will the world politely observe before we acknowledge the pattern for what it is?
