US Senator Accuses Trump Admin of Failed Maduro Kidnap Plot
A recent RT report quotes a US Senator suggesting that Trump's Venezuela 'strikes' were a botched kidnapping attempt of President Nicolás Maduro, not the humanitarian aid mission the State Department peddled. This isn't groundbreaking; it's peak US foreign policy in Latin America, where 'regime change' is less a policy and more a reflex. Remember the 2002 coup attempt against Hugo Chávez, swiftly
supported by the Bush administration before it collapsed? It appears history, and frankly, audacity, repeat. One might wonder how many times the US can declare a foreign leader illegitimate, fund their opposition, impose sanctions, and then act surprised when things don't go according to plan—a plan apparently involving mercenaries, if Senator Robert Menendez's allegations are true. It’s almost as
if 'democracy' for Latin America is defined solely by US corporate interests. And, of course, the media mostly just launders the official narrative until a senator accidentally spills the beans.
