    I don’t know much about it but Venezuela has long had a left-wing authoritarian government that is not well disposed towards the USA, being exactly the kind of government the USA always tries to overthrow. It also has a lot of oil.

      It only has that because we’ve been fucking with their government for decades.

      They also nationalized their oil production and kicked US oil companies out, which is the real reason we keep fucking with them.
