The best part of a major, nationwide protest movement is having someone to blame. This weekend, the new narrative embraced by the White House would pin large US protests against police brutality on Venezuela’s President Nicolas Maduro.
The Trump Administration has had a problem with Maduro for a long time, and in just the past few months had also accused him of being involved in the drug trade, justifying a bounty on his head that culminated in a failed invasion by a private US company.
The White House is refusing to offer any proof on this, saying it was “non-open source.” Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) cited certain news reports from Latin America. The whole thing, incredibly, all falls back on Max Blumenthal’s T-shirt.
Blumenthal, from TheGrayZone.com, was shown in a DC protest as wearing a T-shirt with “Hugo Chavez eyes” on it. This was taken as a sign of Venezuelan links to the protests, and doubled down on with Blumenthal having interviewed Maduro, and been photographed shaking his hand.
This all starts a not particularly complicated story of Max Blumenthal having gone to a protest and having worn a Venezuela-themed t-shirt. Turning this into the protests being a Venezuela thing is another matter, however, as there is no sign Blumenthal himself was in any way driving the protests. Blumenthal’s presence wasn’t even a point of focus for media outlets until some saw this as a chance to make this vaguely about Venezuela.
These types of low blows are also done by A Fraud Secular but actually The most despicable Modern Day Hitler; India’s PM Narender Modi’s Genocide, Heinous Crimes, Crucifying of Innocent Christians, Sikh Nation, Muslims, Dalits, Low Cast Hindus & Other Minorities in India with impunity and with Satanic intelligence Demonizing The Victims.
Spread this as wide as possible. We need more of this stuff to build momentum for the international isolation of the US as the rogue state that it is
Laughable trying to connect Maduro to these protests, they should look to Soros first.
You’re 100% right, AJ. It’s absolutely ridiculous to connect Maduro to these protests; they should certainly look to Soros first, since he’s the one who instigated/encouraged them.
I just wouldn’t put it past him to pull stunts such as these ,, After all, he funded and encouraged caravans of illegal aliens to invade Mexico and attempt to invade the US as well.
i suggest researching exactly what it is soros funds before making those blanket statements using him as the boogeyman. smh. the govt ,via the FBI usually has its hands in these protests.
Trump is having his “Maduro- 2014” moment.
Was anyone seen wearing a pro-Iranian T-shirt at the protests? This could start a new trend. Whenever there is a protest in America, we go bomb one of our made up enemies for instigating them.
wow the white house might have just shot themselves in the foot with this one because it would be a simple matter for future rioters to remove their hoodies and reveal trump MAGA t-shirts. false-flag tactics could easily work both ways.
Send Trump to Madurodam. We will be safer.
P.S. Madurodam is open.
Ah, more of trump’s Vogon poetry…..
the US government has become the laughing stock of the world.. Maduro has as much to do with all these protests as Russia and China had to do with the Black Panthers
Trump just takes off the mask that was hiding so much of of the Empire’s evil beneath empty words of ‘change and hope’, ‘human rights’, ‘respect for freedom’ etc etc … Now we still get the evil empty words but without the oratorical window dressing of snake oil salesmen like Obama and Clinton, or a ‘likeable’ bumbler and mass murdering war criminal like Bush …
just wait until Biden gets into office – it’ll be back to the good old days of snake oil charm (putting everyone back to sleep) without the bombast and obnoxiousness of Trump.
end of it all: Same policies, different bottles.
LMAO trump and his psycho minions blame anyone and anything to distract from themselves.
