Resisting 4

Follow up to this post

Venezuela's fight for freedom from socialist dictator Maduro is not over. A fight for power is taking place right now, and the American government is taking sides in the outcome of that disputed election held a couple weeks ago.

According to the US Secretary of State, “Given the overwhelming evidence, it is clear to the United States and, most importantly, to the Venezuelan people that [the opposition party] won the most votes . . .”

His statement goes on to denounce Maduro's threats and accusations toward the opposition as "unsubstantiated,"  "an undemocratic attempt to repress political participation and retain power.”

Opposition leader Machado says she is in hiding, fearing the loss of her freedom and even her life. This is far from over.
