Biden in October that he would permit a free and fair presidential election this year. Instead, Mr. Maduro has banned his leading opponent, María Corina Machado, from running for the next 15 years, while his supporters have persecuted her team and vandalized her campaign headquarters. Venezuela also warned Washington on Jan. 30 that it will refuse to accept deported migrants if the U.S. reimposes oil and gas sanctions: “If they make the mistake of intensifying the economic aggression against Venezuela . . . repatriation flights for Venezuelan migrants will be immediately revoked as of Feb. 13.”

So you are here to show support for the authoritarianism of the Venezuelan government? And if they are asking the UN entities to leave, things are about to get a lot worse in that part of the world.
I thought Biden had this whole thing worked out? Failure once again and allowing a half million of Venezulan's to stay in the US is bordering on ludicrious. The Biden administration gave Maduro a deal giving him his closest political ally in exchange for 10 Americans held hostage and an agreement that democratic elections will be held. In 2023 Biden adm gave Venezula $451 million for humanitarian assistance. Biden adm is facilitating the continuing dictatorship of Maduro.
