🇺🇸: Today I had my first interview for @cnni. While I’m glad to have been given this window, as a Venezuelan-American, I wish it happened under better circumstances; or at least not as difficult. @BeckyCNN gave me the opportunity to talk about the precarious situation in Venezuela in the aftermath of the double earthquake that has taken the lives of hundreds of Venezuelans. We spoke about the appalling hardships that Venezuelans are currently enduring and the almost inexistent rescue efforts by the corrupt Chavista government. Personally, this was a difficult topic for me to speak on air. However, us Venezuelans have learned that if we are not willing to tell our story to the world, then others will do it for us and they’ll do it for their own benefit, not ours. As soon as I finished the interview, I resumed my efforts of collecting and donating humanitarian supplies across several Venezuelan distribution centers throughout Miami. I want to thank @CNN and @BeckyCNN for dedicating a window of their valuable time to the battered yet resilient #venezuela🇻🇪. —————- 🇻🇪: Hoy tuve mi primera entrevista para @cnni. Aunque me alegra haber tenido esta oportunidad, como venezolano-estadounidense, desearía que se hubiera dado en mejores circunstancias, o al menos en una situación menos difícil. @BeckyCNN me dio la oportunidad de hablar sobre la precaria situación en Venezuela tras el doble terremoto que ha cobrado la vida de cientos de venezolanos. Conversamos sobre las terribles dificultades que enfrenta actualmente el pueblo venezolano y sobre los casi inexistentes esfuerzos de rescate por parte del corrupto gobierno chavista. En lo personal, fue un tema muy difícil de abordar al aire. Sin embargo, los venezolanos hemos aprendido que, si no estamos dispuestos a contarle nuestra historia al mundo, otros lo harán por nosotros, y lo harán en beneficio propio, no del nuestro. Tan pronto terminé la entrevista, retomé mis labores de recolección y donación de ayuda humanitaria en varios centros de distribución para Venezuela en Miami. Quiero agradecer a @CNN y a @BeckyCNN por dedicar parte de su valioso tiempo a una Venezuela golpeada, pero resiliente.

Retreats can turn into routs. Congressional democrats must push the administration until it complies with the constitution that Trump has disrespected for so long. The American people voted for solutions but they also want accountability. MAGA needs to remember that on this land, all men are created equal under the law regardless of wealth or political loyalty.

Generational talent. Southern democrats are the future of democratic politics.

The White House staff just goes from bad to worse

Well yeah because both of you are unserious people who should not be even close to a decision-making position. Of course you guys get along, you are extremes.

Fall of Berlin moment

Again, Republicans showing that they don’t want Venezuelans here. They only wanted our votes, but now that they even lost that, they want us out. Venezolano, vota azul. 🔵🇺🇸🇻🇪

This is outrageous
