Some time ago I googled, email contact for president Donald T
I go down to, Contact Us...if I remember, and eventually it gives me a
form to fill out, and the email is sent to the White House. I filled
out one for Donald Trump and one for Mike Pence. I know that someone
will read them. I've received responces in the past, using this form.

When Mike Pence said that *ALL Americans supported his and Donald Trump's
interference in Venezuela's internal affairs, I shouted out, "NO!!! I do not
support the actions of the American Empire. Then I sent an email to both
Pence and Trump, telling them that when they counted hands, they forgot to
ask for a show of those who disagreed.
Therefor, I wanted my "Nay" vote to be registered.

U.S. hands off Venezuela!

Venezuelans took to the streets in August 2017 in response to Trump’s
comment that he would consider the “military option” against Venezuela.

Once again, the Wall Street-captured, war-promoting, servants of the
one percent—who administer the U.S. government at the pleasure of, and
solely in the interest of, corporate America—have deigned to command a
sovereign nation as to how to handle its internal affairs.
In a further escalation of the U.S. government’s long-running campaign
against the elected Venezuelan government, Vice President Mike Pence
pledged on Tuesday, Jan. 22, his “unwavering support” for opposition
moves aimed at unseating the elected president Nicolás Maduro. The
following day, in violation of international law and the right of
self-determination, President Trump formally recognized U.S. puppet
politician Juan Guaidó as the legitimate Venezuelan leader. On Jan.
24, The New York Times joined the war chorus, proclaiming, “The Trump
administration is right to support Mr. Guaidó.”
To the chagrin of U.S. robber barons, Maduro was elected in 2013 in a
process the Carter Center previously called the “best in the world.”
Maduro was then re-elected in 2018. Fearing another electoral defeat
and seeking to deny Maduro legitimacy, the rightist opposition
boycotted that election, with the strong encouragement of its U.S.
sponsors.
This latest act of U.S. imperial aggression is not the first of its
kind directed against Venezuela or other countries in Latin America
and the Caribbean that refuse to march in lock step with U.S.
corporate interests. Other hostile actions include:
•The illegal, decades long economic blockade of Cuba.
•The invasion of Guatemala in 1954.
•The Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba in 1961.
•The invasion of the Dominican Republic in 1965.
•The U.S. supported coup in Chile in 1973.
•The Contra war against Nicaragua from 1981-1990.
•CIA-backed Haiti coups, 1991 and 2004 & U.S. occupations.
•The invasion of Grenada in 1983.
•The invasion of Panama in 1989.
•CIA backed coups in Haiti in 1991 and 2004, including years of
occupations.
•The U.S. supported coup in Honduras in 2009.
•Material aid to Nicaraguan opposition groups from at least 2016 to
the present.
•Support for Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil.
•The U.S.-supported coup against Hugo Chavez in Venezuela in 2002.
•Economic sanctions against Venezuela from 2006 to the present.
•A special $5 million fund for Venezuelan opposition groups
established by Barak Obama in 2011.
•Coup attempts against Venezuela’s Maduro in 2015 and 2018.
The same corporate behemoths that push for cutbacks, layoffs,
offshoring, and austerity here at home—all to maximize corporate
profits—are behind the latest threats against Venezuela. Working
people in the U.S. only lose if the one percent succeeds in imposing
their will on the Venezuelan people or anyone else.
Many have justifiably criticized the capitalist Chavez and Maduro
government policies from the left. But in the current context, under
the threat of U.S. intervention, this is not the overriding
consideration.
Any changes or improvement in the Venezuelan government are for the
Venezuelan people alone to make.
The U.S. imperial machine has no progressive role to play in Venezuela
or elsewhere! The last thing U.S. corporate leaders want is a truly
mobilized, active, and empowered Venezuelan working class. In the
U.S., antiwar and working-class activists must take to the streets to
demand, “U.S. Out Now!”
Hands Off Venezuela! No to the U.S.-Sponsored Coup Efforts! No to U.S.
Sanctions and Military, Economic and Political Efforts to Bring Down
the Venezuelan Government! Not One Dollar for the U.S. War Machine!
End All U.S. Government Covert Operations! Fund Jobs, Education, and
Healthcare, not the Pentagon!
