Nicolas Maduro is Walking on a Dangerous Territory Ignoring the Constitution

After badly losing the Parliamentary election on December 6, the Maduro government has decided to blatantly disregard the will of the Venezuelan people by creating a “Communal Resource Office”, simulating the National Assembly, and appointing the 22 Assembly men and women who lost their re-election. The objective of this mockery of Assembly is to contest in court the legitimacy of 22 Assembly personal that won the elections fair and square early this month. This absurd move by the regime is to guarantee disruption of the Democratic process that should take place on the first week of January, when the newly elected 112 Parliamentary men an women take office and begin their work restoring democracy and the respect for the law and the constitution in Venezuela.


Nicolas  Maduro, instead of revising its failing economic and social policies, continues  to ignore the reasons why the Venezuelan people voted against his regime. Lets refresh their memory: the long lines people have to endure to buy the little food left in Venezuela, the lack of products, the lack of medicines, the lack of jobs, the rampant crime, the list goes on and on. 

Nicolas Maduro and his narco –state has embarked in an Anti-Democratic mission, which will bring even more chaos and conflict to the already divided nation. This New Year, the government will face an unprecedented economic and social crisis with the continuing drop of oil prices in this once rich country. Maduro is walking on a dangerous territory which inevitably will lead to an implosion when the people of Venezuela come to the realization that they have being mocked and their votes has been blatantly disregarded by this power hungry Totalitarian Regime.

Venezuela Faces a Tsunami of Problems in 2016

 Venezuela is in a crossroad on three different fronts: The first and the most significant is the rampant inflation that by the year 2016 will reach close to the 200%.  On the second front, the Maduro regime faces an internal struggle within the United Socialist Party of Venezuela, PSUV, due to the loss of the Parliamentary elections on December 6. This last event has prompted Maduro’s verbal attacks against the 3 million chavistas that didn’t vote for the regime’s candidates and the thousands that voted for the Opposition. 

Another very significant event that is lurking around Maduro’s head is the arrest of his Narco Nephews who will be facing the US supreme Court on December 17, in New York City, for their involvement in making a deal to smuggle 800 kilos of cocaine into the United States. According with a DEA source, one of these men -Efrain Antonio Campo Flores, was raised by Venezuelan first lady Cilia Flores. The other, Franqui Francisco Flores de Freitas is her nephew.  They were arrested on conspiracy charges in Haiti as they tried to use diplomatic immunity to facilitated their smuggle of drugs into the U.S.

2016 will also present many economic and socio-political challenges for the Opposition in their effort to recuperate from this tsunami of problems that the country is facing. It is going to be very important that Opposition stick together in order `to combat a desperate and fractured regime that has stolen and pilfered trillions of dollars and has bankrupted Venezuela during the past 16-years in power.  The international community must also show their complete support to the restoration of democracy in Venezuela.

Reaction to “Black Activists Honor Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro In Harlem”


It is appalling and hypocritical to see people in Harlem, who have fought for freedom and equality, to cheer on a dictator who has violated human rights, freedom of speech, and freedom of the press in Venezuela. More than 23,000 Venezuelans died last year by the hands of criminals supported by a dictatorship government, and the government spends millions of dollars preaching lies about socialism and the Bolivarian revolution while their people suffer.

We Venezuelans know that men like Danny Glover - who has praised former Venezuelan Dictator Hugo Chávez so strongly - benefit from these dictators’ donations of millions for his various projects for spreading the “wisdom” of Venezuelan “socialism.”


I will tell Mr. Glover that the “free money” from Venezuela to fund his projects will stop soon and we, the people of Venezuela, will recuperate our country, our freedom, our democracy. Black lives matter, and democracy matters too.

A Great Victory for Democracy in Venezuela


The Opposition’ s on December 6’s Parliamentary election, (99 seats the Opposition and 46 seats the government party PSUV), marks the beginning of a new era for Venezuela. The current National Assembly, headed by the Narco-boss Diosdado Cabelllo, must move aside to make way for the new National Assembly and start picking up the pieces. The systematic destruction of Venezuela was started by a traitor named Hugo Chavez and continues today with Nicolas Maduro.

 There were a few main factors that forced this dramatic victory for the Opposition:  the economic reality that is facing the country (now practically in ruins) combined with the International pressure that forced the regime to respect the will of the people. Their votes were respected this time. The disoriented dictatorship will have to abide by the dictates of a new National Assembly. Restoring the institutions of government, today sequestered by the regime, and recuperating the economy, now shambled by an inept regime, will not be an easy task.  We can’t forget that Venezuela also faces other challenges: Drug trafficking and Terrorism that circulate freely in the country. Success in the Parliamentary is a good start but we all, including the international community, need to pitch in to help Venezuela create task forces to clean the county and restore Democracy again
