There is a strange dichotomy taking place right now, with the world cheering the U.S. for removing Nicolás Maduro as dictator from one of the worst countries in the world, while American leftists are protesting his arrest for narco-terrorism and continuing to support one of the worst socialists becoming mayor of New York, Zohran Mamdani. Hypocritically, the Left put on “No Kings” rallies across the U.S. this year, claiming that President Donald Trump is acting like an authoritarian dictator. But now they are defending Venezuela's dictator, Maduro, staying in power. 

More than 100 protesters gathered outside the Brooklyn jail holding Maduro, chanting "Free Maduro right now" and holding signs like "No U.S. War on Venezuela." Hundreds rallied in Times Square with chants of "Hands Off Venezuela," and "US Out," and "No Blood for Oil."

Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) posted on X, “I authored a War Powers Resolution to hold the Trump administration accountable for its illegal actions in Venezuela.” Gallego's father, who is originally from Mexico, has a criminal record, including a conviction for possession of cocaine and marijuana with intent to distribute, which the younger Gallego admitted in his 2021 memoir, “They Called Us ‘Lucky’.”

Mamdani condemned the arrest of Maduro, calling it a violation of international law — the globalist believes our U.S. laws are subservient to the U.N., no matter how corrupt the U.N. is and how tortured of a legal interpretation must be taken to even get there. He criticized the U.S. action against Maduro as an "act of war" and regime change. 

In reality, the U.S. was simply arresting a criminal for crimes against the U.S. related to narco-terrorism. The Trump administration asserted that the Venezuelan government protected and profited from drug trafficking. Doesn’t the U.S. have the right to arrest those who violate our laws? If this were a regime change, then why was Maduro’s Vice President Delcy........
