Recently Venezuela held its presidential elections with Maduro "winning" again. There has been widespread allegation of fraud, with a lot of western public figures also calling the election a sham. Certain south American leaders (those that you would consider on the right, Argentina, Chile, etc) believe the elections were rigged and publicly are challenging the results. Of course the US which has been wanting to get rid of Maduro for years, both due to his ties with Russia/China and the fact that it's a commie gov't is also calling the election a sham.
Feels like a powder keg right now. Lots of protests, neither side is accepting defeat. If this escalates and the military gets mobilized it could turn bad real fast.
Thoughts on if we had our hands in this?

We definitely have a hand in everything including this.
Watching some of the protests really puts into perspective someone who "won the election".....and yea my fairy godmother just gave me a diamond the size of Gibraltar
