another example here giving evidence that the empire respects and honors the votes of citizens, and in this case its venezuelan citizens who have voted, in what jimmy carter says is the most honest election process he's seen;
With Venezuela’s government ordering the withdrawal of the last of US
embassy personnel, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo tried to spin it as a
positive for the continued efforts to impose regime change there.
Pompeo said that “time is drawing short” for Venezuela, while saying the
presence of a US embassy had been a “constraint on US policy,” and one
that no longer exists now that the staff is being recalled.
Exactly what this will mean from a policy standpoint is unclear, though
clearly the administration wants to keep reminding everybody that
military intervention is possible Elliot Abrams confirmed this in his
own comments, saying that the option to attack Venezuela will always remain on the table.
Administration officials say that they remain hopeful to impose change
within Venezuela in some way other than military intervention. Weeks of
demanding change and threatening to attack clearly isn’t working,
however, and officials seem bound and determined to Venezuela in
general, and Venezuela’s oil-generating capacity in particular, in hands
more friendly to US policy.......https://news.antiwar.com/2019/03/12/pompeo-all-constraint-on-action-in-venezuela-is-lifted/
