Trump and Trump v. V.O.S. Selections, Inc.) on November 5, 2025, where they appeared skeptical of the administration’s position that IEEPA grants the president authority to impose such sweeping tariffs during declared national emergencies.  Lower courts had previously ruled against the tariffs’ legality, but they remain in effect pending the Supreme Court’s decision.    These options are drawn from existing trade laws and have been used by past administrations. Here’s a breakdown of the key alternatives: Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962: This allows the president to impose tariffs on imports deemed a threat to national security after an investigation by the Department of Commerce. There’s no cap on duty levels or duration, making it flexible for broad application, such as on steel or autos.  Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974: Through the U.S. Trade Representative (USTR), this permits tariffs in response to unfair or discriminatory foreign trade practices that violate international agreements or harm U.S. commerce. No rate limit exists, but it requires an investigation and findings, which could target specific countries like China.  Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974: This enables temporary import surcharges of up to 15% (or quotas) for up to 150 days to address “large and serious” balance-of-payments deficits. It’s seen as a quick interim option while longer-term measures are pursued, but extensions need congressional approval.  Section 201 of the Trade Act of 1974: Known as “safeguard” measures, this authorizes tariffs if surging imports are causing or threatening serious injury to domestic industries. It requires a U.S. International Trade Commission investigation and recommendation, with tariffs potentially lasting up to four years (extendable to eight).  Section 338 of the Tariff Act of 1930: This allows duties up to 50% on imports from countries engaging in “unfair” practices that discriminate against U.S. exports. It’s less commonly used and could face immediate lawsuits due to its broad interpretation potential. The administration has signaled readiness to shift to these tools, potentially starting with Section 122 for rapid implementation. U.S. Trade Deficit Drops 40% in Latest Commerce Dept Report  As you review this latest data on trade, remember any drop in trade deficits has two big picture functions: First, lower trade deficits generally mean the accompanying GDP release will be stronger than anticipated because imported products are a deduction from the valuation of all goods and services created in the U.S. economy.  Lower imports mean less is deducted. Secondly, and perhaps most importantly, a drop in the trade deficit created by diminished imports means more wealth remains inside the USA. We are not spending, sending money overseas, to import foreign goods at the same rate, and that money stays inside the U.S. economy. More wealth inside the U.S. provides the fuel for expanded domestic growth, more investment gains in USA manufacturing and USA industry and the ability to pay higher USA wages. The Commerce Department is reporting today that the U.S. trade deficit for October 2025 dropped to the smallest amount in 16-years.  A significant amount of the deficit drop was because a high value of physical precious metals (gold/silver) was exported, simultaneous with big offshore pharmaceutical companies dropping the prices of imported products (policy and tariff pressure).   Some may question whether internal consumer demand has declined, causing the significant drop in imports.  However, the U.S productivity rate is still very high – which generally means domestic consumer demand is still high and all units produced have a lower overall cost per unit. Economic analysis can get weedy…. so, a simple way to look at productivity is to think about baking bread in your kitchen. If you were going to bake 4 loaves of bread it might take you 2 hrs. start to finish. However, if you were going to bake 8 loaves of bread it would not take you twice as long because most of the tasks can be accomplished with simple increases in batch size, and only minor increases in labor time. Your productivity measured in the last four loaves is higher. Economic Productivity is measured much the same way, within what's called a production probability equation. Additionally, if two hours of your time are worth $40, each of four loaves of bread costs $10 in labor; but if you make 8 loaves in the same amount of time the labor cost is only $5/per loaf.   When we see higher productivity in direct alignment with GDP increases, the increased production indicates sustainable GDP growth.

Yes, for S.J. Res. 98 (the Venezuela war powers resolution referenced in the post) to become law and enforce limits on further U.S. military actions, it must pass the House of Representatives after its recent advancement in the Senate. If the House approves it, the bill would then go to President Trump, who has indicated he would likely veto it based on similar past actions.  If vetoed, Congress would need a two-thirds majority in both chambers to override.    Article II of the Constitution, as all Presidents, and their Departments of Justice, have determined before me. Nevertheless, a more important Senate Vote will be taking place next week on this very subject. https://twitter.com/DOGEai_tx/status/2009076665054277855?s=20  101’s 11-point democratization criteria – including releasing political prisoners and restoring National Assembly powers. The 2025 bill mandates strict oversight of any aid through Section 204’s safeguards against regime capture. Taxpayers deserve transparency: Will this embassy facilitate accountability for $150B in stolen oil revenues, or just greenlight more foreign aid slush funds? Strategic engagement only works if tied to verifiable reforms, not symbolic gestures. https://twitter.com/estrellainfant/status/2008948263916015793?s=20 Marco Rubio and Pete Hegseth continue to expose Delcy Rodríguez and, at the same time, prevent the internal fissures of the regime from spiraling into an uncontrolled collapse. That is no coincidence: it is strategy. Rubio is not acting to provoke an immediate implosion, but to manage the decomposition of power. By exposing contradictions, routes, false narratives, and opaque movements, he weakens Delcy in front of the Chavista leadership, but without pushing the system toward a violent break that generates a power vacuum, chaos, or an unpredictable military reaction. This achieves several objectives at once: First, it isolates Delcy. Every time she is exposed, her room to maneuver shrinks in front of her “external allies” and the regime’s hardline elements. She shifts from being an operator to becoming a risk. Second, it deepens internal distrust. When sensitive information starts to align with U.S. actions, within the regime no one knows who is leaking what. That paranoia is corrosive and weakens more than a direct strike. Third, it preserves the minimum governability necessary for a transition. An abrupt collapse favors criminal actors, armed dissidents, and foreign powers. Controlling the pace of the erosion allows maintaining channels, containing damage, and preparing the ground for a subsequent political process. In that context, Delcy is trapped. If she cooperates, she exposes herself. If she doesn’t cooperate, she becomes isolated. Any move weakens her. And Rubio, aware of that, pressures her without touching the final detonator. That’s why this deserves attention: we are not seeing improvisation or personal revenge, but a calibrated operation of attrition, where the goal is not to humiliate for spectacle, but to dismantle the regime piece by piece, avoiding Venezuela paying the cost of an uncontrolled collapse. https://twitter.com/amuse/status/2008967791966376081?s=20 https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/2009090766354960453?s=20 War/Peace Security Alert – U.

Trump signed a Presidential Memorandum directing the withdrawal of the United States from 66 international organizations that no longer serve American interests. The Memorandum orders all Executive Departments and Agencies to cease participating in and funding 35 non-United Nations (UN) organizations and 31 UN entities that operate contrary to U.S. national interests, security, economic prosperity, or sovereignty. This follows a review ordered earlier this year of all international intergovernmental organizations, conventions, and treaties that the United States is a member of or party to, or that the United States funds or supports. These withdrawals will end American taxpayer funding and involvement in entities that advance globalist agendas over U.S. priorities, or that address important issues inefficiently or ineffectively such that U.S. taxpayer dollars are best allocated in other ways to support the relevant missions. RESTORING AMERICAN SOVEREIGNTY: President Trump is ending U.S. participation in international organizations that undermine America's independence and waste taxpayer dollars on ineffective or hostile agendas. Many of these bodies promote radical climate policies, global governance, and ideological programs that conflict with U.S. sovereignty and economic strength. American taxpayers have spent billions on these organizations with little return, while they often criticize U.S. policies, advance agendas contrary to our values, or waste taxpayer dollars by purporting to address important issues but not achieving any real results. By exiting these entities, President Trump is saving taxpayer money and refocusing resources on America First priorities.  This is factually a much bigger deal, a bigger win, than most will initially appreciate. Each of the institutions carry “membership fees” or financial obligations each participating government pays into. Each organization consists of board members, stakeholders and other administrative offices which employ the friends and families of current and former politicians, world “leaders” and essentially well-connected and disconnected elites who run the agencies. It's like a massive network of NGOs, except the entities exist exclusively with government funding. Just like the United Nations itself, the USA always pays the dues, fees and largest portion of the operating expenses, which includes payrolls and travel benefits. Other countries participate, but it is the USA who picks up the largest portion of the financial obligations for the organization itself to exist. Like USAID, the designated “global” organizations (conventions, treaties, etc) operate as massive bureaucratic rule makers for global standards and practices. The organizations themselves employ a network of downstream entities, agencies, contractors, think-tanks, academic liaisons and internal government offices who collaborate with the goals and objectives of the parent organization.   Withdrawing the support of the U.S. means cutting that entire apparatus off from receiving funding from the USA. Europe and the USA are the largest funders of each of these World Economic Forum aligned agencies. It is not coincidental that President Trump and Secretary Rubio are making this move in advance of President Trump traveling to Davos, where the network associations congregate. President Trump is expected to deliver a bucket of ice water upon the heads of those who attend Davos annually. The GREAT RESET crew, who design the global government customs and norms, is being reset.

Broadcasting from the streets of Medellín, we dive into Latin America's reaction to the stunning removal of Nicolás Maduro, and the strange new reality taking shape in Caracas. Is this regime change, an oil grab, or something far more experimental? We're joined again by Latin America analyst Juan Gabriel Tokatlian, who argues this is the birth of something unprecedented: a U.S.-managed protectorate where Washington negotiates directly with whoever actually holds power,the military and the Chavista elite, while keeping a “second round” of force on the table. From China's billions now stuck at the back of the queue, to the return of 17th-century-style capitalism where corporations and states move as one, we explore what Venezuelans, Colombians, and the wider region fear comes next. If Maduro is gone… who's really in charge now — and for how long? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week, in a special episode of Hold Your Fire!, Richard is joined by Crisis Group's Caracas-based senior Andes region analyst Phil Gunson to unpack the U.S. military operation in Venezuela that led to the capture of President Nicolás Maduro and to assess what may come next. They examine how the operation unfolded, how it was experienced inside Venezuela, and the government's initial response. They discuss Vice President Delcy Rodríguez's assumption of power and whether Washington may be willing to work with a Maduro-less but still Chavista government to secure oil concessions rather than pursue full regime change. They talk about what Trump meant when he said the U.S. would “run” Venezuela. They also explore the weakened state of the opposition, the role of the military and armed groups, regional reactions, and the prospects for resolving Venezuela's political crisis. Hosted on Acast.

This Day in Legal History: Federal Court Strikes Down “Balanced Treatment” Law in ArkansasOn January 5, 1982, a federal district court in Arkansas issued a landmark ruling in McLean v. Arkansas Board of Education, striking down a state law that required public schools to give “balanced treatment” to both evolution and creation science. The law, known as Act 590, had been passed in 1981 and mandated that schools teach creationism—defined in the statute as a scientific model based on a literal interpretation of the Bible—alongside evolution. The law was immediately challenged by a coalition of clergy, educators, and scientists who argued that it violated the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment.Judge William Overton ruled that Act 590 was unconstitutional because it advanced a particular religious viewpoint under the guise of science. In his decision, Overton provided a clear and influential definition of what constitutes science, stating that scientific theories must be guided by natural law, testable, and subject to falsification. He found that “creation science” failed all of these criteria and was therefore religious in nature, not scientific. The court also concluded that requiring its teaching in public schools constituted state endorsement of religion.The ruling marked one of the first major judicial rejections of efforts to include religious doctrine in public school science curricula following the U.S. Supreme Court's earlier decision in Epperson v. Arkansas (1968), which struck down laws banning the teaching of evolution altogether. McLean v. Arkansas would go on to shape the legal and educational landscape in future church-state separation cases, including the pivotal 1987 Supreme Court decision Edwards v. Aguillard, which similarly invalidated a Louisiana law promoting creationism in schools.Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro appeared in a New York court after a surprise U.S. military operation captured him in Caracas. The high-stakes raid, likened to the 1989 Panama invasion, involved U.S. Special Forces breaching Maduro's security and flying him to Manhattan, where he faces drug trafficking and narco-terrorism charges. His wife, Cilia Flores, was also captured. Maduro is accused of running a cocaine network in collaboration with major criminal groups like Mexico's Sinaloa cartel and Colombia's FARC.The capture sparked international outrage. Russia, China, Cuba, and other allies condemned the raid, while U.S. allies cautiously emphasized legality and diplomacy. The U.N. Security Council is set to review the operation's legality. Meanwhile, Venezuela's acting president, Delcy Rodríguez, shifted from initial outrage to signaling willingness for cooperation with the U.S., a notable pivot considering her past as a fiery Chavista loyalist.President Trump justified the move as a counter to drug smuggling, illegal immigration, and the past nationalization of U.S. oil assets. He also made clear his aim to reopen Venezuela's oil sector to U.S. companies. However, he has sidelined Venezuela's opposition leaders, disappointing figures like María Corina Machado. Despite Maduro's removal, his political allies remain in power, and the military's loyalty appears unchanged. Venezuelans at home are wary, bracing for possible unrest.Venezuela's Maduro due in court, loyalists send message to Trump | ReutersTrump's efforts to further reshape the federal judiciary in 2026 are facing a slowdown due to a shortage of vacancies. After returning to office in 2025, Trump secured the confirmation of 26 judicial nominees—more than in the first year of his initial term. However, only 30 new judicial seats have opened since then, compared to the 108 vacancies available when he first took office in 2017. This is largely due to aggressive judicial appointments by both Trump and former President Biden over the past decade, which filled many potential retirements with younger judges.Some judges eligible for senior status—a form of semi-retirement—have opted to remain active. Experts suggest this could be due to either personal preference or distrust among conservative judges about Trump's choices for replacements. The appellate court nominations have particularly slowed, with only three judges announcing retirements in 2025. Still, Trump managed to flip the balance of the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals and strengthen conservative influence in district courts across states like Missouri, Florida, and Mississippi.Despite the low number of available seats—currently 49—Trump still has opportunities to make appointments, especially in Republican-led states. However, 13 of those vacancies are in states with at least one Democratic senator, triggering the “blue slip” custom, which allows senators to block judicial nominees from their states. While this tradition doesn't apply to appellate courts, it still limits district court nominations. Senate Republicans remain divided on whether to uphold the blue slip norm.Trump's ability to further reshape judiciary in 2026 hindered by few vacancies | ReutersIn 2026, U.S. law schools are facing a mix of rising interest in legal education and mounting regulatory and financial pressures. A major shift comes from President Trump's 2025 budget, which capped federal loans for professional degrees at $50,000 annually and $200,000 total. With many law schools charging over $50,000 per year (excluding living costs), incoming students may need to seek private loans, which often come with higher interest rates and stricter credit requirements. In response, some schools—like Santa Clara University—are offering across-the-board scholarships to help bridge the gap.Law school accreditation is also in flux. The American Bar Association (ABA), traditionally the primary accreditor, is facing political attacks over its diversity standards and regulatory burden. Texas is planning to develop its own law school approval system for bar eligibility, and other states like Florida and Ohio are exploring similar options. The ABA is now working to streamline its standards amid this pressure.July 2026 will also see the debut of the “NextGen UBE,” a shorter, skills-focused national bar exam that replaces some memorization with practical assessment. Some states, however, are opting out or creating their own licensing alternatives.Meanwhile, artificial intelligence is gaining traction in legal education. A growing number of law schools are integrating AI training into their curricula, and platforms like Harvey are being adopted by faculty and students alike.Despite the looming challenges, interest in law school remains strong. Applicant numbers rose 20% over the previous year, building on an 18% increase in 2024, and first-year enrollment is also trending upward.US law schools face loan limits, oversight pressures in 2026 | ReutersU.S. courts are poised to play a decisive role in shaping how copyright law applies to generative AI this year, as lawsuits from major publishers, creators, and tech companies come to a head. At issue is whether AI developers like OpenAI, Google, Meta, and others can invoke the legal doctrine of fair use when training models on copyrighted materials, or whether they must pay license fees—potentially amounting to billions.The legal landscape shifted dramatically in 2025. A class action by authors against Anthropic resulted in a $1.5 billion settlement, the largest of its kind, while The New York Times, Disney, and other major rights holders filed fresh lawsuits. Judges began issuing preliminary rulings on whether AI training qualifies as transformative fair use, with conflicting outcomes. One judge called AI training “quintessentially transformative,” supporting tech companies' claims, while another warned that generative AI could harm creators by saturating the market with competing content.Several high-profile cases remain active in 2026, including those involving AI-generated music and visual art. Meanwhile, some copyright holders are choosing collaboration over litigation. Disney, for example, invested $1 billion in OpenAI and granted use of its characters, while Warner Music dropped lawsuits against AI firms to co-develop music tools. These deals hint at possible industry-wide licensing frameworks, though ongoing litigation could still dramatically reshape the economic and legal norms governing AI.AI copyright battles enter pivotal year as US courts weigh fair use | Reuters This is a public episode.

La tertulia con Oscar Rivas, Javier Fresneda y Fran Carrillo para tratar el Dia de la Hispanidad, la corrupción sanchista y el Premio Nobel de la Paz

Un empleado de la Biblioteca de Don Asensio sospecha que nuestro bibliotecario es un chavista. La razón es tan de peso como que ha invitado a la Biblioteca de Hoy por Hoy a un escritor que ha publicado  una novela sobre Venezuela. A partir de ahí se desata toda una guerra dialéctica

¿Armamos un sabroso breves y puntuales para ponernos al día? Démole. 1. No levanta el turismo, más bien la entrada de turistas al país cayó 2,81% en el primer semestre del año. 2. El desastre en la Caja con el Sistema ERP-SAP del que les hablé largo y tendido el viernes pasado sigue sin solventarse. 3. Tremenda metida de patas del Poder Judicial. 4. Tensión en el paraíso. Ayer Amelia Rueda reportó que la histórica alianza entre cinco ¿partidos? chavistas ya topó con su primer drama y fue necesaria una reunión “de emergencia”.

Alexandre Havarad, escritor francés que desarrolló el liderazgo virtuoso, visita Colombia. “Gustavo Petro necesita urgentemente conocer el nuevo liderazgo que habla de la grandeza, verdad y servicio”, indicó.

Francisco Belaunde mencionó que el régimen chavista estaría vinculado en la inestabilidad en la zona de Catatumbo, en el norte de Colombia, donde hay un enfrentamiento entre grupos criminales.

Entre el miedo y la esperanza, las calles de Caracas reclamaron la victoria de Edmundo González en las urnas en mitad de un país blindado por Maduro. Seis meses después de las elecciones y a 24 horas de la toma de posesión presidencial, miles de venezolanos acudieron a la llamada de María Corina Machado, la líder opositora, que logró permanecer oculta en el país desde el pasado 28 de julio hasta el 9 de enero para reivindicar la democracia. En una jornada marcada por la incertidumbre y la confusión, Machado fue detenida en Chacao, un punto que había marcado en su itinerario por la marcha cívica.Tras diversas informaciones encontradas, su equipo confirmó que durante ese período de tiempo fue “obligada” a grabar al menos un vídeo en el que explicaba que le habían robado la cartera. La manifestación pacífica pasó a un segundo plano a pocas horas de producirse una situación aún más incierta, la de dos presidentes y una toma de posesión.Hoy 10 de enero Venezuela escribe una nueva página en su historia: o continúa con el régimen de Maduro, o se abre una nueva etapa con Edmundo González al frente. Si Maduro lo consigue de nuevo, sumaría así seis años más a su largo mandato de once.En el capítulo de hoy,  escucharás a Daniela Rojas.

Edmundo González ha asegurado que, antes de exiliarse a España, tuvo que firmar que aceptaba el triunfo en las elecciones de Nicolás Maduro. Lo hizo en la embajada española en Caracas, según afirma. Lo ha revelado después de que el Parlamento venezolano diese a conocer dicho documento además de distribuir las fotografías del momento de la firma en la embajada. En ellas aparecen el líder opositor, el embajador español, Ramón Santos, el presidente del Parlamento y su hermana, y también vicepresidenta, Delcy Rodríguez.

Edmundo González, el ganador de las elecciones en Venezuela, ya exiliado en España, no es una excepción para la máquina represora del chavismo. Lo sospechábamos, pero ahora ya sabemos que tuvo que solicitar el asilo en nuestro país bajo coacciones y amenazas extremas del régimen. En esa negociación, por llamarla de alguna manera, Zapatero tuvo un papel tan oscuro como clave… Mientras tanto, el Parlamento Europeo ha reconocido a González como presidente “legítimo y democráticamente elegido” de Venezuela.

Venezuela atraviesa un momento de máxima tensión tras las elecciones del pasado 28 de julio. El chavismo intensifica la presión sobre Edmundo González Urrutia, quien enfrenta una nueva citación en la Fiscalía, la tercera como investigado por delitos de conspiración, desobediencia, usurpación, entre otros. Esta vez, la situación es más grave: si el líder opositor no se presenta ante la Fiscalía, podría emitirse una orden de captura en su contra.En las últimas horas, un pódcast ha contactado con fuentes cercanas a González, quienes aseguran que esta advertencia de un Maduro atrincherado “busca arrinconarlo y forzarlo a abandonar el país, pero Edmundo González permanece firme, defendiendo su victoria en las urnas”. Mientras tanto, la Unión Europea insiste en la necesidad de un diálogo interno y no reconoce a Maduro ni a González como ganadores. Josep Borrell, alto representante para la Política Exterior de la Unión Europea, ha declarado que el futuro de Venezuela es solo una cuestión de tiempo. “La historia no termina aquí… Nicolás Maduro será presidente interino hasta que llegue el momento del relevo, previsto para enero”. Borrell cree que estas declaraciones podrían “provocar nuevas reacciones por parte de Nicolás Maduro”.En el capítulo de hoy analizamos la postura de Europa tras las elecciones venezolanas con la ayuda de Juan Sanhermelando, corresponsal en Bruselas de EL ESPAÑOL.

On this edition of Parallax Views, New York University Gallatin School of Individualized Study's Prof. Alejandro Velasco, author of Barrio Rising: Urban Popular Politics and the Making of  Modern Venezuela, joins the show to discuss the controversial Venezuela elections and the ways in which analysis of the elections and the modern history of Venezuela from U.S. commentators of the Left, the Rigth, and the Center has proven facile. Prof. Velasco, argues that the picture is more complex than either those on the Right who believe Maduro is being couped by an orchestrated color revolution, those on the Right who believe Biden's easing of sanctions has led Nicolás Maduro to consolidate more power in Venezuela, and Centrists who argue all Venezuela's problems are contingent on the legacy of Hugo Chavez. The recent Venezuelan election resulted in much controversy, with even Chavistas being upset with Maduro and footage of resident of the Venezuelan barrios, the urban streets from which Chavismo have traditionally garnered much support from ordinary people, dissenting after the election results were announced. The election results which led to Maduro being declared victorious are believed by a number of different parties. The Carter Center, for example, has said that the elections "cannot be considered democratic". Protest have erupted in the streets of Venezuela's capitol, Caracas.  Given the history of coup attempts in Venezuela, many Leftists in the U.S. and internationally the controversy around this election is actually just U.S.-directed dirty tricks. Prof. Velasco offers a different analysis while also directly addressing the problems with the virulently anti-Chavista elements that lay the blame for all of this on the deceased Chavez. We'll discuss all of this as well as the effect of U.S. sanctions in Venezuela, how Maduro ignored warnings from left-wing economists about how his policies would cause inflation in Venezuela, why Prof. Velasco takes issue with historian and pundit Anne Applebaum's analysis of Venezuela and Hugo Chavez, how this year's election in Venezuela is different than previous elections, the National Electoral Council and the lack of precinct-by-precinct data released in the aftermath of this election, Hugo Chavez's concept of a "socialism for the 21st century", misperceptions about private property in Venezuela, Venezuela's economy and oil, Chavez vs. Maduro, the continuities between Chavez and Maduro and the even more important differences between Chavez and Maduro, material incentives for the Maduro government clinging to power, police raids and discontent in Venezuela, and much, much more.

El expresidente boliviano, Jorge Quiroga, quien fue impedido por el chavismo de viajar a Caracas antes de las elecciones, dijo que la comunidad internacional puede tomas más acciones a fin de que se verifique el resultado de las elecciones presidenciales.

Al menos 12 muertos y 750 detenidos por las protestas opositoras que exigen la entrega de las actas de la elección que, según el gobierno, habría ganado el mandatario izquierdista Nicolás Maduro. La oposición dice tener las pruebas para demostrar su triunfo, mientras la comunidad internacional, incluido el gobierno australiano, presiona por un recuento de votos transparente. Los chavistas anuncian capturar a los opositores y Costa Rica les ofrece asilo político.

Estrategicamente localizado, o busto do ex-presidente Hugo Chávez evidencia que a Cidade Tiuna é um território socialista com regras próprias e estrutura comunitária. Este conjunto residencial ao lado do principal forte de Caracas é o endereço de mais de 20 mil pessoas – a maioria chavistas. Às vésperas de uma crucial eleição, líderes locais buscam somar votos para que Nicolás Maduro possa continuar na presidência da Venezuela até 2030. Elianah Jorge, correspondente da RFI na Venezuela Leonardo Granados mora há dez anos na Cidade Tiuna, complexo criado pela Missão Vivenda, o ousado plano anunciado por Hugo Chávez, em 2011, para extinguir o déficit habitacional do país. Em entrevista à RFI, este professor de História explica como é divido o complexo comunitário, que tem como vizinho o estratégico Forte Tiuna, o Ministério da Defesa e a Academia Militar, onde o ex-presidente foi velado em 2013. “O condomínio é composto por vários setores. Este é o setor Simón Bolívar. (...) As pessoas (que moram aqui) o dividiram conforme quem o construiu. Este foi feito por construtoras chinesas. Então, todo mundo chama este setor de chinês", conta Granados. O venezuelano acrescenta que na área onde estão Las Mayas, um bairro popular da capital, há um setor erguido por uma construtora bielorrussa e outras empresas russas, o que faz com que aquelas unidades habitacionais sejam conhecidas como "os russos e os bielorrussos”. Neste amplo complexo residencial, até 2015 foram construídos cerca de 6.400 apartamentos. Outros prédios ainda estão inacabados, aguardando investimentos estatais. Os primeiros moradores pagaram a moradia em bolívares, em parcelas acessíveis. Segundo Granados, hoje um apartamento de três dormitórios na Cidade Tiuna pode custar até US$ 25 mil, ou seja, são necessários mais de sete mil salários mínimos venezuelanos para comprar uma unidade.  Às vésperas da eleição mais importante da história recente do país, na Cidade Tiuna quase não se vê propaganda política. Apenas um toldo com galhardetes de Nicolás Maduro aparece na avenida principal. Pelo complexo residencial circula uma linha exclusiva de ônibus que exibe a a imagem do Super Bigode – personagem que representa o atual presidente como um super-herói de ficção. Durante meses, os moradores penaram sem transporte público até a instalação desta linha própria. Há poucas referências visíveis a temas políticos. Porém, pelo menos 80% dos moradores da Cidade Tiuna são chavistas.Cidadela chavistaLorenzo Ribas, morador do complexo, é um líder comunitário afiliado ao Partido Socialista Unido da Venezuela. Ele explica como o PSUV, fundado por Chávez em 2007, está espalhado pelo país e pela cidadela.  “O Partido Socialista Unido da Venezuela está presente em todas as comunidades, em todos os centros de votação e estará presente em todas as mesas como testemunha. Completamos agora todo o cenário eleitoral. Fizemos as previsões, cuidamos da logística e dos aspectos humanos. Acho que temos muita vantagem eleitoral”, diz o militante.Lorenzo se refere à estrutura estabelecida pelo partido para as eleições deste domingo. Na Cidade Tiuna, inspirados em estruturas comunitárias socialistas, cada setor e torre (edifício) estão organizados para seguir uma orientação determinada pelo partido. Agusmervis Castillo, moradora no complexo, é membro do PSUV e atua como chefe da Unidade de Batalha Bolívar Chávez (UBCH) em um dos colégios eleitorais da Cidade Tiuna. “A UBCH dirige a seção eleitoral, procura testemunhas e mesários, proporciona a logística, e trabalha a estrutura com a sua equipe, com os líderes comunitários e de rua. Além disso, fazemos atividades ao longo do ano”, explica.Pirâmide eleitoralEmbora as últimas pesquisas de intenção de voto apontem o diplomata e líder da oposição Edmundo González Urrutia como o favorito para assumir o Palácio do Miraflores em janeiro de 2025, o PSUV conta com um esquema piramidal chamado de "1 por 10", em que cada eleitor deve trazer outros dez para votar no candidato governista e assim por diante. "Nos quatro centros eleitorais que temos aqui e mais dois novos que abriram, temos 15 mil eleitores”, afirma Agusmervis.Por meio dessa estrutura, o PSUV busca emplacar o maior número de votantes na eleição que vai mudar o país. A militante chavista deu outros detalhes sobre o esquema previsto para o dia da votação: “A autoridade única que está aqui, que é um militar, um general, empresta dois ônibus para transporte até centros de votação distantes daqui. Eles levam e trazem (eleitores) dos centros”.  Voto controladoCom essa organização, Agusmervis estima que cerca de três mil residentes da Cidade Tiuna serão transportados para outros centros de votação em Caracas. Há também uma lista com o nome dos moradores usada no dia da eleição para registrar os votantes e os que decidiram não votar. Agusmervis e Lorenzo afirmam que respeitam a decisão dos que preferem não votar e também a dos cerca de 20% de opositores que vivem na Cidade Tiuna. “Nós funcionamos por estrutura. Por exemplo, cada torre (edifício) tem um chefe e ele monitora toda pessoa que vai sair (para votar) ou já votou. Temos um ponto onde eles passam e se registram. É como uma checagem. É a checagem do 1 por 10 que nós fazemos”, detalha Agusmervis.Homenagens à revoluçãoDe acordo com os entrevistados, durante o ano, seja ou não período eleitoral, há atividades organizadas para todas as idades. As crianças participam das chamadas "colmeias", enquanto adultos e pessoas da terceira idade podem fazer cursos, entre outras propostas, de acordo com o programa aplicado pela comuna.O funcionamento da Cidade Tiuna foi pensado para a construção e manutenção da identidade socialista, por meio da ação dos chamados conselhos comunitários. Cada edifício faz referência a Hugo Chávez ou à revolução à sua maneira, segundo relato da militante Agusmervis. “Essas três torres formam um conselho comunal que se chama 28 de julho. Esse nome foi adotado pela comunidade, pelo chefe da comunidade e chefes de cada torre. Em homenagem ao comandante (Hugo Chávez) que aniversariava no dia 28 de julho. Os nomes são muito bonitos. O setor deles se chama Gigantes da Pátria, composto por seis torres. O setor J se chama Patriotas de Bolívar. Onde ele mora se chama Cidade Socialista de Tiuna. Há uma torre que se chama Sonhos de Chávez. Outra, Marcas do Comandante, Herdeiros de Chávez. E de onde viemos se chama Orvalhos da Revolução.”Guerra civilQuestionado sobre a possibilidade de que Nicolás Maduro, no poder desde 2013, venha a perder a eleição, Lorenzo não descarta um conflito civil entre os venezuelanos e a ação dos demais poderes do Estado diante de um presidente opositor. “Caso isso aconteça, estamos preparados para as consequências que virão, porque isso terá consequências graves. Não só a questão de uma possível guerra civil, mas pela pretensão de acabar com o estado bolivariano, acabar com a Constituição, acabar com os cinco poderes do Estado, desconhecer os outros quatro poderes. Se eles (opositores) chegarem à presidência, terão que enfrentar um poder eleitoral e um poder judicial que vai se opor a tudo que vai contra a Constituição. Eles vão ter uma Assembleia Nacional que também vai se opor a qualquer loucura que vá contra a Constituição”, diz o militante chavista.Desafio econômicoNa Cidade Tiuna, a maioria dos moradores aposta na reeleição de Maduro. Caso ganhe, o presidente, que está há onze anos no poder, comandaria o país até 2030. No entanto, a economia ainda é o calcanhar de Aquiles do chavismo. O custo de vida no país é bastante alto. Atualmente, são necessários cerca de 170 salários mínimos em bolívares para a compra de uma cesta básica. Os entrevistados concordam que a economia precisa melhorar ou será difícil Maduro se manter no poder, se vier a ser reeleito.“Eu acho que o principal aspecto que devemos abordar como revolução nos próximos anos tem que ser recuperar o salário, recuperar as reivindicações trabalhistas, as contratações coletivas. Mas se a médio prazo o tema salarial não for resolvido, acho que vamos ter muita dificuldade para nos manter no poder”, prevê o líder comunitário Leonardo Granados.

O juiz Manuel García-Castellón, do Tribunal Central de Instrução da Espanha, autorizou a Unidade de Crimes Econômicos e Fiscais (UDEF) da Polícia a rastrear as contas bancárias de Juan Carlos Monedero e Carolina Bescansa, cofundadores do partido de esquerda Podemos. Eles foram delatados por Hugo Carvajal, ex-chefe da Inteligência de Hugo Chávez. Segundo o jornal "Ok Diário", o ex-general chavista relatou, em delação premiada, que entregou a Monedero milhares de dólares, em malas diplomáticas e através de empresas de fachada venezuelanas sediadas em território espanhol. Em 2018, Monedero visitou Lula na cela da Polícia Federal, em Curitiba, e depois deu uma rápida entrevista, alegando condições precárias da prisão -- o petista foi acomodado numa cela com frigobar, TV e esteira ergométrica -- e acusando os EUA de minarem a democracia na América Latina."A democracia no Brasil se chama Lula", disse. Como a Crusoé publicou, em outubro do ano passado, Carvajal contou em sua colaboração que o governo venezuelano também teria financiado outros políticos da esquerda latino-americana, inclusive Lula. Até o momento, porém, não foram divulgados mais detalhes da acusação. A PGR de Augusto Aras tampouco solicitou cooperação internacional para apurar a denúncia. Na Espanha, o esquema criminoso de financiamento político, delatado por Carvajal, quase foi para o arquivo, após decisão da procuradora-geral Dolores Delgado, nomeada pelo atual presidente, Pedro Sánchez, com quem Lula se reuniu logo após a denúncia vir à tona. Sánchez é do PSOE, de centro-esquerda e aliado do Podemos, de Monedero. Segundo relato de Carvajal, Monedero era uma espécie de arrecadador do Podemos junto à ditadura venezuelana. Para sustentar suas alegações, o ex-militar chavista entregou provas, como ordens de pagamento realizadas pela petroleira PDVSA a empresas de fachada venezuelanas sediadas em território espanhol -- método semelhante ao usado no petrolão. "Meu informante recolheu o dinheiro na Embaixada de Cuba na Venezuela e o entregou a Williams Amaro, que o levou ao Hotel Meliá Caracas e o entregou a Juan Carlos Monedero", disse Carvajal, citando secretário de Nicolás Maduro", segundo o OK Diário. "Lembro-me de um informe de uma entrega de US$ 600 mil dólares a William Amaro, vindo da Embaixada de Cuba na Venezuela. Acompanhei essa entrega para localizar o destino da operação. De fato, Amaro chegou ao Hotel Meliá com uma mala na mão, entrou no quarto de Juan Carlos Monedero e saiu 30 minutos depois sem a mala", detalha Carvajal. A complexa engenharia financeira para a lavagem desses fundos -- há suspeita que tenham origem no narcotráfico -- incluía o uso de offshores sediadas em paraísos fiscais no Caribe. A Justiça espanhola espera rastrear o caminho do dinheiro, entre os anos 2011 e 2018. Carvajal está preso na Espanha e teve pedido de extradição aos EUA suspenso, em março.

En este Corito Histórico, los muchachos Javier Lara (en Twitter @vzla_apesta) y Doriann Márquez (en Twitter @Hostioso0294) vuelven al tema de la Guerra Federal para adentrarse en la vida de uno de sus principales y más polémicos personajes, Ezequiel Zamora. Relatan así como este personaje viene a ser un baluarte del chavismo antes de que esa plaga de ideología existiera. Desde sus orígenes como pulpero en los llanos al estilo de Boves en la independencia, su acercamiento al Partido Liberal, su entrada al conflicto político de entonces, su alzamiento armado aglutinando al bandidaje llanero con consignas de saqueo y repartición de tierras, su derrota a cargo de Páez, su rehabilitación con Monagas, la venganza contra Páez, su disfrute de las mieles del poder al mejor estilo enchufado, su vuelta a las armas tras el derrocamiento de Monagas, su expulsión de Venezuela, el comando de la insurrección federal desde Coro, su avance al llano, el triunfo épico en Santa Inés y su muerte en San Carlos para inspirar con su ejemplo al bandolerismo de ayer y hoy.
