Today feels like living in a completely insane alternate reality. Kidnapping a foreign president and charging him on crimes based on another country's laws is just insane beyond words. And all western leaders are having piss luke warm reactions. I don't care anymore.

My heart goes to Venezuela and its people. I hope this will end in Venezuela's ultimate victory and as fast as possible. Fuck the us, 2026 should be its final year.

Gonna pin this thread for now to prevent multiple posts

Death to America

Unlimited death to Yankeeland. Fucking shitheads.

Please everyone. Protest against this illegal action from the US.

No matter how many times I say this, it's not enough. Death to the United States!

🇻🇪The Venezuelan Defense Minister stated that Venezuela "will not negotiate, will not surrender, and will ultimately win".

Trump said the US will run Venezuela for the coming time. The US has today couped a country.

Practice proper discipline. Don't share unsubstantiated news, don't believe unconfirmed reports. 10 Twitter accounts reposting the exact same video is not confirmation of events.

Don't trust the enemy to tell you what's happening, wait for confirmation from blue side. In a revolutionary situation we carry on as usual and wait for our side to give the go-ahead on how to react. Practice it.

I hope Venezuela becomes a graveyard for US soldiers.

You can tell the US severely crossed some lines here by seeing 0 people supporting this. Like, I haven't seen a supportive message of these strikes anywhere. Instagram, Reddit, the news, nowhere.

Btw USA advised it's citizens to leave Russia because of "threats of terrorism" - like they did hours before the Crocus City Hall massacre last year. So empire would probably attempt another mass killing in Russia in a few days.

Mexico and Columbia's militaries should be having meetings ASAP.

Embarrassing response from EU

Someone add the burning US flag emote to lemmygrad.

This is vile, I want to apologize to the whole world except isn'treal. I am ashamed of my country.

Update: vice president Delcy Rodriguez demands proof of Maduro's life from US. I wonder if this is enough for Venezuela to try a retaliatory strike at the navy.

My heart has dropped seeing some of the footage. I knew it was coming but had some hope we could continue down Nothing Ever Happensville. The US is such a deeply evil country.

My heart goes out to the people of Venezuela, may this be the final nail in the coffin of the American empire.

🇻🇪WHAT DO WE KNOW SO FAR ABOUT THE EVENTS IN VENEZUELA?

🔺At 2:00 a.m. (local time in Venezuela), air strikes were reported against targets in Fuerte Tiuna (military headquarters), Cuartel de la Montaña (museum, Hugo Chávez mausoleum), La Carlota Airfield (downtown Caracas), Puerto de la Guaira, Higuerote Airport (east of Caracas), and the Navy Headquarters in La Guaira.

‼️There are no reports of damage or casualties so far.

Once again coming back: you know how bad the US is right now if pictures of Venezuala's refugees in the US over at r/news and r/pics get a bad rep lol. If two of the most astroturfed subs don't agree with this you're down bad.

Yeah, the US definitely just invaded Venezuela, and I’m ready for a riot.

I'll send a google doc of all the events in one bigass timeline. Unfortunately most of it is western live news, but it should have a good amount of information (it's in CET and my time stamps aren't gonna be perfect).

Vice President of Venezuela: "There is only one president here, and his name is Nicolás Maduro"

Vice President Delcy Rodríguez denounced that Washington's military operation seeks regime change and control of natural resources, demanding the immediate release of the presidential couple.

“We demand the immediate release of President Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores. The only president of Venezuela is President Nicolás Maduro,” emphasized Delcy Rodríguez.

Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez denounced on Saturday, January 3, the "unprecedented" military aggression by the United States against the country , perpetrated at 1:58 a.m., which culminated in the illegal kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores . Rodríguez affirmed that "there is only one president in this country, and his name is Nicolás Maduro Moros."

The Vice President chaired a meeting of the National Defense Council in response to the military aggression against Venezuela, accompanied by high-ranking officials of the Bolivarian Government. In this context, Rodríguez recalled that the Venezuelan executive branch had already warned of an ongoing aggression under "false excuses and pretexts," emphasizing that "the masks have fallen."

The vice president emphasized that the true objective of this operation is "regime change in Venezuela," which would allow the United States "to seize our energy, mineral, and natural resources ." She called on the international community to be aware of this truth.

Representatives of the Venezuelan state's public powers, the high military command, and other key authorities participated in the National Defense Council meeting. From there, the vice president demanded the immediate release of President Nicolás Maduro and Cilia Flores, reaffirming the president as the "only president of Venezuela."

Rodríguez reported that the Citizen Security Agency and "all of Venezuela's national power" had been activated . This aims to reaffirm the defense of independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity, which he described as "savagely attacked." He also added that "the people of Venezuela have taken to the streets," following a previous call by Maduro to activate the National Bolivarian Armed Forces (FANB) and the Bolivarian militias.

Rodríguez also announced the activation of a decree signed by President Maduro , which has been submitted to the president of the Supreme Court of Justice for constitutional review by the Constitutional Chamber. This decree, declaring a state of "external unrest," is expected to receive judicial approval in the coming hours for immediate implementation.

The vice president highlighted the international support, noting that the community has "joined forces and raised its voices" from China, Russia, Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa, and Asia. She stated that governments around the world are shocked by this attack, which she attributed to "Zionist undertones," calling it "truly shameful."

Rodríguez quoted Simón Bolívar, the Liberator, from the Jamaica Letter: “The veil has been torn, we have seen the light, and they want to plunge us back into darkness. The chains have been broken, we have been free, and our enemies intend to enslave us again .” He emphasized that Venezuela “will never again be a colony of any empire.”

The vice president recalled the recent statements by President Maduro , who "just two days ago publicly in a television interview" reaffirmed the government's willingness to "maintain dialogue relations to address a constructive agenda . "

He pointed out that the US aggression "flagrantly violates Articles 1 and 2 of the Charter of the United Nations ," despite Maduro having extended his hand to the American people to establish "diplomatic, political, and institutional channels of communication" based on the well-being of the people, friendship, cooperation, and respect for international law.

Finally, the vice president called on the Venezuelan people to "remain calm" and face the situation "together in perfect national unity ." She urged that the "police, military, and popular fusion" become "a single body" to defend "our beloved Venezuela" in this "stage of defending our sovereignty and our national independence."
