All 20 or so of them? On speedboats tho.

I mean to say that I am sure Maduro will claim that he foiled a CIA plot there, but I haven’t seen any evidence that US government has anything to do with that action.

Sorry, 60 of them. This is what wikipedia has to say about that:

“ Commentators and observers, including Guaidó officials who initially contacted Silvercorp, described the operation as amateurish, underfunded, poorly-planned, having little or no chance of success, and a suicide mission.”

Western propaganda?

Just some randos out for a little assassination fun. Happens all the time in the world that a bunch of foreigners attempt a stupid but audacious assassination attempt right in the middle of a concerted effort by an adversary to overthrow a government. You know the CIA wasn't involved because American movies depicts them as superhuman secret agents and these guys were the opposite of that.

I am sort of running out of steam keeping this up here.

I was honestly keeping an open mind to hearing some convincing evidence or even some mainstream reporting sources that this wasn’t a poorly put together private mercenary action.

that’s an open mind. wow.

I suppose just not open enough to accept the MSM is a government distribution pipeline of pre-approved thoughts for opinion shaping purposes.
