Foreign Interference: Venezuelan Alleged Drug Lord Promotes Effort to Oust Marco Rubio
FRANCES MARTEL 11 Nov 2020
A Venezuelan propaganda show hosted by a top henchman of socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro promoted efforts by Democrats in Florida this week to remove Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) from his seat. That henchman, Diosdado Cabello, reportedly ordered Rubio’s assassination in 2017.
Despite Speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) claiming this year that her party was “gravely concerned” about meddling in American elections by foreign actors, the Democrat Party has yet to distance itself from Venezuelan state propaganda efforts to promote its “Retire Rubio 2022” campaign.
Update: Since this article was published, one of the organizers of the anti-Rubio campaign
told the
Orlando Sentinel that his campaign’s propaganda had been distributed on Twitter thousands of times; “I have no idea who [Cabello] or 99.999% of the other retweets are,” he said. He did not address coverage on Cabello’s television program website.
