“This sends a message all the way up to the top,” one of the US officials told CNN. “Seizing the foreign head of state’s plane is unheard-of for criminal matters. We’re sending a clear message here that no one is above the law, no one is above the reach of US sanctions.” ... “We see these officials and the Maduro regime basically fleecing the Venezuelan people for their own gain,” the US official said. “You have people who can’t even afford a loaf of bread there and then you have the president of Venezuela jetting around in a high-class private jet.”
Considering the electoral college exists and America effectively has 1 party, Venezuala should take Air Force One after the next American election. The election wasn't free or fair afterall.

I guess Maduro should just take the bus when attending to matters of state, just like every president.
Look you can be a "comrade" but ONLY if you live in a carbord box, wear a burlap bag for clothes, and do the Little Timmy "Please Sir, may I have some more?" Meme so we can laugh at you while we criminalize you for being poor.

lol that has to be literally the cheapest private jet imaginable and they have the gall to call it "high-class" while the US president jets around with a 747 and motorcade vehicles, and they're planning to replace their 747 with a new plane.
Also the Dominican Republic has such a pathetic ruling class.
they're planning to replace their 747 with a new plane.
Boeing take my energy
Now I'm sad Biden is going away because we're never going to hear him call it a 737 Mack
Edit: Sebenthurby-Set Mack
That's less than 10% of what Uncle Sam paid Boeing to develop plans for the next generation Air Force one plane.

Quick question how much does tax calculation software cost?

I was thinking that too when I saw this on CNN. And make Biden and Harris fly coach.
I think this is the money quote: "no one is above the reach of US sanctions"
I think The Powers That Be are getting a little antsy after sanctions failed to bring financial collapse to the Russian state and are looking for ways to make examples.

Lol
Remember to
for harm reduction while we do laughably stupid childish stunts from idiotic sanctions....I mean "RULES BASED ORDER" that 
did.China is building thier own planes now. Be funny if they gift Maduro a plane if only to spite the
Venezuala should take Air Force One after the next American election
I don't know if Venazuala has the ability to do that. It's obviously more of a "because we can" sort of thing.
Vanazuala wouldn't be able to respond in kind without a war arising over it.
