Wouldn't you know it? Our dear friend and "journalist", Max Blumenthal, has traveled to Venezuela to deny the fact of any crisis there. There are legitimate debates within the left about the cause of the crisis in Venezuela. Likewise about the popularity - or lack of it - of Maduro. But the existence of a crisis there? No, there is no serious debate about that. Clearly, Blumenthal's visit was coordinated by the Maduro administration. We can all decide for ourselves what it says about them that they are in effect denying the fact of a crisis there. https://www.rt.com/news/452325-max-blumenthal-venezuela-food/ John Reimann -- *“In politics, abstract terms conceal treachery.” *from "The Black Jacobins" by C.
