Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I don't believe there was a chance at all of Guaido ever becoming official president. All that really happened were a bunch of western countries started saying he was the real president. when that didn't work the US sent mercenaries that promptly fucked up and got caught by Venezuelan fisherman because at this point I think the South America division of American intelligence is high on their own supply. They think the people of South America want imperialist installed dictators and will revolt once prompted. Turns out the Venezuelan people aren't morons
Yeah I agree with your assessment for the most part. Where I disagree is on the mercs. The reason they only made a half-hearted attempt was because Trump had lost interest.
absolute freaks of mercs they were too. Going ahead with the mission without getting paid. Just in it for the love of the game.
Mercs in the middle ages would burn down Rome if they didn't get paid. These guys tried the mission anyway, failed, six of got shot to death, and the rest ended up in Venezuelan jail.
Pissing themselves on the pavement as well lol, the leader holding what was basically an I.O.U from some Trump ghoul. Funniest day in a while
