America, fuck ya!.. Oh wait…
Yeah, but the CIA has to spread that money for operations in the whole world. Venezuelans don’t play the same game.
Venezuelans have an entire country to run for that money though. That takes some money.
They’ve also had decades of experience to back them up. They’re not just a newly spun-up agency who’s been given a multi-billion dollar budget.
That being said, South America in general has contended with CIA interference for decades. It’s not unreasonable to think they’ve grown wise to their playbook.
One trashcan for cia - 10000$ One trashcan for venezuela - idk maybe 10$?
Fun fact, the CIA is known to routinely obfuscate drug money with office expenses.
The situation, no, and no. Calm down.
Venezuelan agency budget, ~$200 million. CIA - 78 billion. When your budget is 365 times as much, I could understand why you’d think they would be more sophisticated.
Size, budget, experience and economic stability favors the Americans. Fuck the CIA anyway.
