White House National Security Adviser John Bolton announces sanctions against PDVSA, Venezuela's state-owned oil company, and warns that any violence against U.S. diplomats will be met with a significant U.S. response.

Why are we putting our noses into other people issues? There are more issues to deal with here at home.

Venezuela helped low income Americans with heating oil. Does this mean prices are going to rise again on fuel?

[jankohrasko]

I feel trapped! I don't want to support this behavior but have no choice but to pay the taxes which fund it. How do I free myself from this?! I want to work, get paid and trade my labor for what I feel is right. If I don't pay taxes, I go to jail. So much for American freedom. Slavery is a term that comes to mind. Help!!!

[ericlefeld]

We are gonna help Venezuela, by sactioning the shit out of the economy.

This push or sanctions against oil company somehow will serve not only purposes of US, but Putin as well.

He omitted to say, "and we want your oil". The Venezuelan army is firmly with Muduro as are some major countries. America could be getting into another unwinnable war. Muduro is not good but hes not as bad as the US backed upstart

[CentralCAhomie]

You know who's a biggest authoritarian than Maduro? Bolton. Bolton is 100x worse than Maduro, its not even a hyperbole.

[ravernot]

Be honest, yall meant "word for word".

[Bluedog]

I hate that bolton, An aggressive puppet, big time.

[josnijsten]

Skin must be very flexible to hold 150 pounds of toxic waste and not explode.

[lifeisgood]

"So they can no longer exploit the resources of the Venezuelan people" hmm try adding "So we can better" at the beginning there.

[mgtowrules]

Neo-Con Bolton? I Keep making Bullets No Matter WHAT! WWG 1 WGA
