<![CDATA[I've wanted to write a Venezuela update the last few days, but to be honest, there's not really much to say. Sure, there are a lot of flashy headlines out there, but most of them are "sources say" rumors and/or clickbait. The story remains the same as it has been. The Donald Trump administration is mounting pressure on the illegitimate Nicolás Maduro regime. Maduro responds by saying "LOL" and does something idiotic. Lather, rinse, repeat. For the second or third week in a row, the dictator is back to his old dancing ways. ]]>
