Is this another sick joke?!?Firestarter wrote: ↑Sun Jan 04, 2026 9:36 amFor now Venezuela’s supreme court has appointed Maduro’s vice-president Delcy Rodríguez…
Apparently Maduro is an evil communist narco-terrorist, but his vice president Delcy Rodriguez is a doubleplus good socialist commie. Trump said that Secretary of State Marco Rubio has spoken with Rodriguez, and that “She’s essentially willing to do what we think is necessary to make Venezuela great again”.
Understandably Rodríguez doesn’t want to be seen as a Yankee puppet, so she denied Trump’s claim that she will do what Trump wants...
See US Secretary of State John Kerry with Delcy Rodriguez, 14 June 2016, Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, for a bilateral meeting on the sidelines of the annual OAS General Assembly.

It’s also odd that Trump now admits that Machado cannot be installed as Venezuela’s president as she doesn’t have much support from the Venezuelan population.Firestarter wrote: ↑Sun Jan 04, 2026 9:36 amWill nepo baby Maria Corina Machado be installed as the new puppet president (or here sidekick Edmundo González)?!?
Doesn’t this contradict that her sidekick Edmundo González won the 2024 presidential election in a 70% landslide?!?
Rodriguez is the daughter of left-wing guerrilla leader Jorge Antonio Rodríguez. She studied law at the Central University of Venezuela, ánd Britain and France (where all the communists go for their education?!?).
Rodríguez has been a leading figure of Chavismo for more than two decades. She has been minister of communication, foreign minister, president of the Constituent National Assembly, and vice president, finance and oil minister simultaneously since 2018.
Delcy’s brother Jorge Rodríguez heads the Maduro-controlled National Assembly.
Delcy Rodriguez was recently in contact with Trump’s envoy Richard Grenell.
Do I go too far in my conclusion that she made a deal which included the removal of Maduro: https://archive.is/0d3Z9
In November 2019, Erik Prince (the brother of Trump I’s education secretary Betsy DeVos, best known as the founder of Blackwater) made a ‘private’ secret visit to Venezuela to make a deal with none other than Delcy Rodríguez, who was under US sanctions.
Apparently with the approval of Maduro…
Reportedly Prince urged freedom for 6 imprisoned Citgo executives that were then swiftly transferred from prison to house arrest. Citgo is the US arm of Venezuela’s state oil company.
Reportedly Prince also proposed to train Venezuela’s police and “protect” judges and political candidates.
It’s almost like Maduro was offered the opportunity to bribe team Trump… and he refused: https://archive.is/QzTng
In January 2020, Delcy Rodríguez flew to Madrid–Barajas Airport in Spain to meet then-Transport Minister José Luis Ábalos.
As she had been banned from entering the EU since 2017, she wasn’t allowed to enter Spain, but “Delcygate” was strangely ignored by the media outside of Spain…
Delcy Rodríguez had earlier secretly made a deal to fraudulently sell 104 bars of Venezuelan gold to Spanish businessmen for $68.5 million. Her January 2020 visit was to finalise the deal.
This transaction was conducted through the Spanish Ministry of Transport, with the involvement of José Luis Ábalos.
Apparently with the approval of Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez… and Maduro.
A 27 December 2019 contract with Spanish businessman Víctor de Aldama outlined the delivery of the gold between 27 December 2019 and 6 January 2020: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delcy_Rodríguez
