    Venezuela After January 3: A Nation Standing in the Storm

    On our recent delegation to Venezuela, one quote echoed again and again — a warning written nearly two centuries ago by Simón Bolívar in 1829: “The United States appears destined by Providence to plague America with misery in the name of liberty.” For many Venezuelans, that line no longer feels like history. It feels like […]

  • The Propaganda Assault: A Tale of Two Venezuela(n)s

    After the Trump administration illegally kidnapped the legitimate president of Venezuela, Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, on January 3rd, 2026, we saw two distinct and divergent responses from Venezuelans. On the one hand, the Venezuelan diaspora, especially in the United States, celebrated President Maduro’s kidnapping and bombing of their birth country. They congregated […]

  • Venezuela after the Abduction of President Maduro

    The kidnapping of a sitting head of state marks a grave escalation in US-Venezuela relations. By seizing Venezuela’s constitutional president, Washington signaled both its disregard for international law and its confidence that it would face little immediate consequence. The response within the US political establishment to the attack on Venezuela has been striking. Without the […]

  • Laura Dogu and Washington’s Regime-Change Playbook: Nicaragua, Honduras, Venezuela

    Laura Dogu, newly appointed US envoy to Venezuela, is described by the Los Angeles Times as an appropriate choice because she “navigated crises” in Nicaragua and Honduras during periods of “social and political volatility.” What the LA Times fails to add is that it was precisely Dogu’s job to create crisis and volatility in both […]

    Asian Solidarity with Venezuela

    Speak, your lips are free. Speak, it is your own tongue. Speak, it is your own body. Speak, your life is still yours. See how in the blacksmith’s shop The flame burns wild, the iron glows red; The locks open their jaws, And every chain begins to break. — Faiz Ahmed Faiz, ‘Speak’ (Bol), translated […]

  • Who’s Really Running Venezuela?

    As the Senate voted to advance a War Powers Resolution on Venezuela on January 8th, Republican Senator Susan Collins declared that she did not agree with “a sustained engagement “running” Venezuela.” The world was mystified when President Trump first said that the United States would “run” Venezuela. He has since made it clear that he wants to control […]

    More Rapping with Biocentric’s Max Wilbert on the State of the World as we Gallop into Year of the Fire Horse

    He’s been under the weather: Hi everyone, I’ve been sick for four days now, and haven’t had a chance to pull a piece together. So, no post today. In lieu of that, here’s a photo of a sandstone rock formation in a coastal wilderness. A place like this, with crawdads crawling in every pool, fish […]

  • The US Propaganda Campaign to Smear Venezuela’s New President Delcy Rodriguez

    The US “regime change” operation against Venezuela has been defeated. The Bolivarian Revolution remains firmly in power. Now, Washington’s campaign against the Chavistas attempts to paint Interim President Delcy Rodriguez as compromising on the heritage of Presidents Nicolas Maduro and Hugo Chavez. The Wall Street Journal ran an article Venezuelan Regime’s New Strategy: Appease Trump […]

  • Washington Projects Its Drug Problem onto Latin America: Narco-State Myth Used to Attack Venezuela

    A big Cadillac limo with Jersey plates was parked down the block. Few locals in East Harlem even owned cars, let alone new ones. Curious, I asked the street kids what’s up. They casually explained that the mafioso comes weekly to collect their drug money. Later, I found a playground, which served as a veritable […]

  • What Lies Behind Trump’s Attacks Against Venezuela?

    What Lies Behind Trump’s Attacks Against Venezuela?

    As if President Trump intended to meet professional US mercenary Erik Prince halfway, US Attorney General Pam Bondi increased the existing US bounty on President Maduro—originally set at $15 million—from $25 million to $50 million for anyone providing “information leading to his arrest or conviction.” In late 2024, Prince, a professional mercenary, alongside Venezuela’s far […]
