Good day all. Almost as soon as the news broke that the Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro had been captured by Federal agents, with the assistance of Delta Force, Venezuelans worldwide broke out in celebrations.
These celebrations are also happening in the United States, much to the consternation of the Communists, Libtards, Progressives and Democrats. There have even been confrontations between Venezuelan Ex-pats and pro-Maduro communists in New York City’s Time Square. (The police seem to have prevented the Venezuelans from lynching the commies) Now the partying is going global. Here are the details from Fox News:
Venezuelans in Miami, Fla., Chile, Peru, Ecuador and Madrid, Spain, donned Venezuela’s national colors and waved flags hours after President Donald Trump announced that Maduro and his wife had been flown out of the country following an overnight U.S. military operation.
In Miami, Venezuelans danced and cheered, with celebrations also taking place outside Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence in Palm Beach, Fla. In Doral, Fla., revelers chanted “Liberty!” and draped Venezuelan flags over their shoulders.
Now there will be a few idiots on the right who will complain about these people waving Venezuelan flags. They are morons. These are people who fled the Chavez/Maduro tyranny. Almost all, (I hope), came her lawfully. These are the people, once things settle down, who will be needed to help rebuild the country and get the Democratic process restarted. I’m sure most Americans are just fine with these people and might even join them.
Outside the El Arepazo restaurant, a hub of the Venezuelan culture of Doral, one man held a piece of cardboard with “Libertad” scrawled with a black marker. It was a sentiment expressed by other native Venezuelans hoping for a new beginning for their home country as they chanted, “Liberty! Liberty! Liberty!”
“We’re like everybody — it’s a combination of feelings, of course,” Alejandra Arrieta, who came to the U.S. in 1997, told The Associated Press.
“There’s fears. There’s excitement,” he said. “There’s so many years that we’ve been waiting for this. Something had to happen in Venezuela. We all need the freedom.”
Many years ago, I was working someplace in the Real World, one of the people I worked with was from Venezuela. This was a few years after Hugo Chavez took office and then began wrecking the country. My coworker said he was glad he’d left Venezuela years earlier and come to the United States, (Legally). He said he was talking friends and family still there and he knew things were bad and were going to get a lot worse. I haven’t talked with him in years, but I suspect he’s just fine with Operation Yoink.
More than 6.9 million Venezuelans are currently hosted in Latin American and Caribbean countries, while hundreds of thousands more live in the United States and Europe, where diaspora communities have remained politically active and closely engaged with events back home.
These people are going to be needed to help rebuild Venezuela into the country it deserves to be. Free, prosperous and a country people want to go to, not run from. Things are still in flux down there, and, of course, the Democrats are whining about President not having a plan for what happens now.
I have no doubt that there is a plan, it’s just the Administration isn’t going to tell the Democrats what they have in mind. I do know that the goal is to restore Democracy, Prosperity and the Rule of Law to Venezuela. With the millions of Venezuelan ex-pats around the world celebrating Operation Yoink, I think that, eventually, things are going to take a turn for the better.
