Venezuelan Journalist...Arresting Maduro Was Not About Taking The Oil

Libs gonna try and tell you it's all about getting the oil. If you have an X account, this video debunks that lie in about 5 minutes.

Summary if you don't have an X account:
The journalist provides historical context around the Venezuelan oil industry, the US connection, and how it relates to today. Maduro was ready to hand over oil to the US and reduce relations with China/Russia, if Trump would simply leave him alone. If acquiring oil was the objective, Maduro would still be in Venezuela.

He didn't look like he was about to hand over his nation's sovereign wealth when he was doing his funny dance on TikTok 🤔

@Barefooter25 Incredible, isn't it?

@BizSuitStacy There is no economic relationship beyond the USA's sanctions.. Western firms plundered Venezuela's oil wealth in the early 20th century, giving rise to the political and economic instability that eventually brought Hugo Chavez (the man who nationalised the industry) to power. Trump's argument is absurd. By the same token the UK should be seeking reparations for every investment made in New England that was lost following the sudden regime change in 1776.

@Barefooter25 Wrong again. Liberals aren't defending Maduro. But if care to show any evidence that they are I'll be glad to refute it.

Probably a good idea for you to take a nap
