Hard to believe that this expense is going to be approved, when it would be much cheaper, perhaps less risky (and practical) to siege the place until the other uniforms wrap them like a salami and submit them to the authorities for extraction, in exchange for immunity.
Gladly, I am already in a secluded, very far away bordertown, thanks to my son´s mother's extended family paying for our bus tickets. Leaving the country from here if things get hairy is going to be much easier. The only caveat is the kid´s school. But we are managing that by now.
In late September 2025, the bus driver Nicolás Maduro signed a controversial legal instrument known as the "Decree of External Commotion," a constitutional mechanism that grants the executive branch sweeping powers under the pretext of defending the nation against an imminent foreign threat—specifically, the United States. While the decree is framed as a defensive measure, its opaque rollout, lack of public disclosure, and internal leaks suggest a far more troubling and shady reality: the regime is preparing for urban warfare by quietly occupying and repurposing civilian buildings with underground facilities to resist a potential U.S. military intervention.
According to statements from Vice President D. Rodríguez, the decree is a constitutional response to what the government calls "aggressions" from Washington. These include the deployment of U.S. naval forces in the Caribbean, which the Maduro administration claims are part of a broader regime-change strategy. The decree, she explained, "would only be activated in the event of a direct military attack, and would allow the president to mobilize the armed forces, take control of public services, seize strategic industries, and implement emergency security plans across the country". Including closing the borders, something I already had predicted that would happen sooner or later, and the main reason to flee in 2017. The good thing is that I now have a plan B and can head out without any issues. That will not be disclosed here for the moment.
