What a catastrophe.
The Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which funded NPR, PBS and hundreds of local radio and TV stations across the U.S. for more than a half-century, said on Monday that its board of directors had voted to dissolve the organization because Congress cut off its federal money.

Executives debated whether to allow the corporation to lie dormant after federal funding ended last year, but decided against it.

New Haven police chief abruptly retires after theft allegations, mayor says
New Haven’s police chief abruptly retired following allegations he stole money from a department account, Mayor Justin Elicker announced Monday. The Democrat said Chief Karl Jacobson admitted he took money from a city fund that compensates confidential informants for helping police solve crimes. Elicker called the allegations “shocking" and a “betrayal of public trust.”

Yep. That’s a reason why the Trumpists prefer dictatorships. Democratically elected leaders who submit to extortion are likely to be voted out by citizens who hate being extorted. Dictators can just buy them off.

Trump thinks it was absolutely terrible that Maduro lied about an election. Trump continues to lie about the 2020 election. He lost. Biden won. He hoped a mob of angry supporters might help him stay in power...but Maduro is bad and Trump is good.

There are still people in Venezuela who seem pretty confident they are the government (with an army and everything), so I don’t know what exactly he’s assembling or what he imagines it’d be in charge of.
With Nicolás Maduro out of power, the Trump administration is racing to assemble an interim governing structure for Venezuela.
