US Shocked Venezuela Resists CIA 'Democracy Promotion'
RT reports that Nicolás Maduro is 'condemning' Trump's authorization of CIA operations in Venezuela as 'unprecedented.' Unprecedented? One might laugh if it weren't so tragic. From Chile in '73 to Nicaragua in the '80s, Afghanistan in the '90s, and everywhere else in between, the CIA's 'democracy promotion' toolkit has consistently involved undermining elected leaders, fueling opposition, and,
yes, authoritarian regimes. This isn't breaking news; this is the US foreign policy playbook on repeat. The media frames Venezuela's response as 'lashing out' or 'condemnation,' ignoring a half-century of verifiable CIA activity. The only thing 'unprecedented' here is the sheer audacity of *admitting* to it. It begs the question: How many 'foreign meddling' accusations are only valid when the US
isn't the one meddling?
