It's common knowledge I have no love for the lib media, but this is beyond the pale.
This is like CNN doing paid ads for North Korea. Venezuelans are literally starving and dying. The government has kidnapped people off the street to work state farms but it's still not enough. No stores have food and people are raiding zoos to eat the animals there. The government regularly tortures and murders any political dissenters they identify as effective rabble rousers. Admid all of this the New York Times took $200k from the Venezuelan dictator to critisize Trump... this is essentially on the same level, though not as terrible, as when the NYT denied the Holocaust decades ago. https://www.google.com/amp/www.breitbar ... eople/amp/ I knew the NYT was desperate for revenue but this is literal blood money. _________________ If you vote for Biden you are voting to be murdered when he sends Beto to come take your "semi automatic assault weapon" (any semi auto).

Sounds like good old capitalism to me. If there's no outcry from the NYT's subscribers, then that says a lot more about them than it does about the paper.

I'm Venezuelan and I can say this part is not true. I wish there was a state farm producing something. That would be better than importing everything to sell it for less than it costs just to keep the "price fixing". Also, working in a farm would be better than getting tortured for years with no judge sentence. And the zoo thing... no... zoos there barely have animals. |

So Amnesty International is lying? https://news.vice.com/article/venezuela ... -in-fields https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/ ... ed-labour/ Quote: "A new decree establishing that any employee in Venezuela can be effectively made to work in the country's fields as a way to fight the current food crisis is unlawful and effectively amounts to forced labor," Amnesty International said in a statement released on Thursday. President Nicolás Maduro signed a decree at the end of last week that gives powers to the labor ministry to order "all workers from the public and private sector with enough physical capabilities and technical know-how" to join a government drive aimed at increasing food production. They can be required to work in the agricultural sector for a 60-day period that can be extended for another 60 days "if the circumstances require it." https://www.forbes.com/forbes/welcome/? ... oogle.com/ https://www.reuters.com/article/us-vene ... SKCN1AW2NN Quote: MARACAIBO, Venezuela (Reuters) - Venezuela authorities are investigating the theft of animals from a zoo in western state of Zulia that were likely snatched to be eaten, a further sign of hunger in a country struggling with chronic food shortages. A police official said two collared peccaries, which are similar in appearance to boars, were stolen over the weekend from the Zulia Metropolitan Zoological Park in the sweltering city of Maracaibo near the Colombian border. “What we presume is that they (were taken) with the intention of eating them,” Luis Morales, an official for the Zulia division of the National Police, told reporters on Tuesday. Reuters made that story and quote up? _________________ If you vote for Biden you are voting to be murdered when he sends Beto to come take your "semi automatic assault weapon" (any semi auto).
