EDIT: This was originally its own thread, hence the Syria stuff.

Don't worry. I'm sure everyone targeted here was just a corporatist CIA imperialist mole who got what was coming to them.

I just walked by the Venezuelan embassy which, despite the US recognizing Guiado, seems to still be run by Maduro loyalists. There were pro-Guiado protesters outside, and pro-Maduro protesters on the steps. There were US police guarding the embassy from the protesters because of its sovereign immunity, which leads to the interesting situation of having US police protecting the agents of a government we don't recognize from protesters supporting a government we do recognize.

Now I'm curious what stage of government failure you have to reach for the Guiado supporters to gain control over the embassy.
