Last summer the regime of socialist dictator Nicolas Maduro announced that leading opposition candidate Maria Corina Machado was ineligible to run for office. The country hadn't held an election in five years at that point but Machado was expected to be the leading candidate if the current government agreed to hold an election.
The opposition held a primary to decide who would face off with Maduro and, as expected, Machado won despite the government sending out its colectivo thugs on motorbikes to harass opposition voters.

Get your opponents thrown off the ballots, arrest and imprison people who worked on their campaign, arrest and imprison the political competitor. Maduro-Venezuela=Biden-New York, Georgia, Washington DC.
Apparently ruling her out of the process wasn't enough for Maduro. Last week, his government announced that it was arresting her campaign manager and other members of her staff.
Sound familiar? And does anyone see the irony in the following from USNews?
WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. is considering additional measures against Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro ’s government after the South American country’s highest court blocked the presidential candidacy of an opposition leader.This comes after the U.S. government on Monday pulled back part of the sanctions relief it granted Venezuela last year, following through on its threat to do so after Maduro reneged on a deal his administration made last year in Barbados with the Venezuelan opposition to hold free elections in 2024.

Joe Biden won a rigged election in 2020 and are working hard to make 2024 worse. No proof of citizien, no voter ID, no cleansing the registration rolls, no in person voting, unrequested ballots mailed out, and crooked election centers.
How could Maduro do any better?
