DC’s power company, PEPCO, cut the electricity to the Venezuelan Embassy Wednesday evening, even though the bill was paid in full. Secret Service and opposition protesters continue to harass the Embassy Protection Collective, which is trying to make sure that the embassy is not turned over to Venezuela’s unelected parallel government representatives.

Thank you covering this! This is very inconvenient for the political elite and it’s not getting the coverage it deserves.
War is finance. Any which way you manufacture it is irrelevant. Trump is an asshole. Freedom, liberty and all that is purely fictional.
This is who I think of when anyone says, “Freedom ain’t free.†And not the brainwashed Storm Troopers for The Empire.
Defendiendo el terror y ni lo sabe
john bolton is a little shit, give him a gun and let him fight for real on a field of battle he would shit his pants, utter wanker
Thats One Brave Little Old Lady. Not Sure How American Citizens Can Stand By And Watch Her Being Physically Attacked As She Claimed. I’d Beat A Mans Azz If I Saw That.
another imperialist telling the latinamericans how they should live, hands off gringa

Medea is a fucking hero for standing up to the filth, much respect.
Medea, you are a truly compassionate human! Thank You!
Medea speaks truth to power, thank you for your support for Venezuela. You speak far more sense than the inmates in the WH asylum.
Human loving adminestration of Trump, Bolotn and Pampeo love people, bring democracy back and freedom to people of Venezuela and Iran ha jha ha, bolll shit
People of the world must get togather against USrael. Hands off Iran, Venezuela, Yemen and Syria
It is very likely the CIA has its own operatives dispersed in the crowd of pro-Guaido protesters outside the Embassy and that they are in fact co-ordinating and inciting the violence in that group. I would make sure I took plenty of pictures of each and everyone of those pro-Guaido protesters and disseminate their faces widely to see who they really are. I wouldn't even put it past the CIA and FBI to be conducting illegal tapping of the Embassy. The whole of America should be very concerned about the illegal acts being conducted by its government there – if you believe it is just an isolated case and doesn't affect each and every citizen in the country, then you need to open your eyes and now.
The conservative social justice warrior are amazing with their violence but it seems to be okay. Don't see them in front of the Saudi embassy, however, or China on behalf of Tibet. I'm sure Rachel Maddow will report this, too.
Medea you are a comunist, go you home, invader. Explain all said that you receive money of Maduro president .Guerrilla
“Trump doesn’t want war with Venezuela†right! 🤥 Trump is the goalkeeper, he has to keep his lies going.
Thank you
The gringo want to keep loot South America for ever
Isn’t enough looting ?
Blue stripes in the background. That's a badass! Go go code pink!!!!
Respect.
Thank you to Real News and thank you to CodePink and Medea who stand up for peace.
This interviewer needs to get to his points quicker.
The resurrected Reaganites responsible for this did similar stuff in the eighties to justice activists, running over peace activists with trains, etc. Whenever a far-right administration comes in, they tend to bring back old Reaganites.
Unprecedented, illegal, fascist activities are also going on at the border, with Trump ordering his border guards to prevent people from legally applying for asylum in the US and working with fascist vigilante groups to attack and kill immigrants.
Were are the anti war people? I am surprised that the anti war people are so out numbered. I have protested war in DC in the past, I know that there are folks there that are against this. Where are the occupy folks/ anti Iraq war folks? I am confused, sadden, surprised and disgusted.
Really America the terrorist regime?Say it ain’t so. Human rights abuses in our own country against Americans. Say it ain’t so. Terrorism is the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.
Thank you for your bravery! Wish I could go there and be an enforcer, kick some Facist ass! 👊ðŸ»
Medea, at around 0:50, says her partner was arrested, jailed for setting up a tent, when the rogue Ven. opposition participants are freely allowed to set up tents for themselves. Ha. It's a TOTAL disgrace for US law enforcement forces. Of course it's also a disgrace for Washington, but it's now been so extremely disgraceful for so damn LONG that a person could think that it can hardly become a worse disgrace than it already is; and has long been. But, Medea also speaks of her work from outdoors to help the activists indoors and that she plus some of the others working from outdoors were violently aggressed. Holding my supper in, the law enforcement forces of the US who're present surely didn't act against these criminal actors, who really should've been arrested "on the spot", promptly. Guaido is somewhat insane (it'll take psychologists, f.e., to be able say this more precisely or to what degree but insane in some way(s)), is criminally trying to lead a coup d'état against a democratically elected leadership, …, and he says nothing to his supporters about them needing to cease their damn criminal actions committed in favor of him, so I consider this as meaning that he's complicit in their crimes during their so-called protests. Well, as depressing as the thought can be, it isn't surprising of Washington, the Administration, run by PSYCHOPATHS, to "side" with such madness. It's an excellent interview and we can all be thankful for it, but at the end it comes to the question of what the Dem. Party needs to do and Medea says correction of the poltical framework. There's a little problem with that, for it isn't only the Dem. Party that needs to correct its framework, for the Repub. Party also does. By not saying the same thing about both parties, only saying it about one, when both are the two main parties in the USA, it's like biased opinion. The Dem. Party basically is NO better than the Repub. Party is. Both need very serious, even major, correction. There should be political competition, say, it just needs to be healthy in social terms. But, what Medea otherwise says in this interview is VERY good. May God's angels work to help protect these activists, for this world has experienced far too much US-lead warring for far too long now and it needs to STOP. It needs to be curbed.
mEDEA YOU ARE POWERFUL. Thank you for all you do.
Anybody read Lenin on the final stage of capitalism?…gee.
What? Give it to a third country?
No way Medea…it is Venezuela.
Democracy of Farce sponsored by Big Oil & US Corporate Dem~Republican Party
Medea bring a bat and smack those bastards screw them!!!
This lady seems to know what she is talking about. I trust her more than out gov't.
Trump can't get ready of Bolten…he has nothing to say….since they have photos of him to blackmail him…it's the only reason why he is still alive. Because they have enough to keep hem under control…wake up people you are ruled by P……..s
Medea is right on on many things but Maduro and his cohorts are draining Venezuela. Most people cannot buy essentials because of the extremely high prices. They are going hungry, they have no medicines, it is the worst situation for most except for the military, whose high officials are drug traffickers. Maduro's government is a disaster and he needs to go but the truth about the government is that it wants control over venezuelan oil. Medea is right, why doesn't USA help other countries were human rights are being broken consistently?????
Hopefully people will gain a full understanding and realization that these men and women making up the Embassy Protection Collective might represent the last chance for stopping a Vietnam-like war from breaking out in Venezuela. Everybody knows the horrific history of Vietnam, an unnecessary criminal war where millions of innocents perished, so please base any possible actions vis-a-vis Venezuela on that nightmare memory.
#HandsOffVenezuela
Yes Code Pink sue those bastards!
Code Pink!🌸🌷🌸
When they say the home of the brave, they mean Medea Benjamin.
