Venezuela’s Supreme Court of Justice confirms validity of Maduro victory

Trump doesn't have even a double-digit number of loyalists in the Senate and proportionately probably about the same in the House. This is a relevant detail because his enablers in Congress are overwhelmingly party loyalists who will drop him like a sack of potatoes the moment it becomes more expedient to. The reason that matters is that it was mainly the Republican Party that got all those Congresspeople elected, not Trump, even in the races where Trump endorsed them, so the relative locus of power is the Republican Party (and really it's the donor class, but we don't need to get into that).

All this to say that AP's simplistic and unsubstantiated flattening of Venezuelan politics to "There's one guy in charge of everything, his lockstep minions, and the brave rightists fighting them" is below you to believe.

MBFC is just some zionists blog site, it has no connection with journalistic integrity.

I could create a site called "world's official bias and impartiality meter", and do my own rankings.

I can do it too. MBFC is a hack website that equivocates between centrism and lack of bias. See this arbitrarily picked page for an example. See that graphic, the very first thing beneath the title? It's giving the game away right there, with a left-right spectrum where the center is "least biased". What about a centrist bias? Doesn't exist, and the closer you get to centrist, the less "biased" you are.

I’m tempted to just laugh at mbfc being used as a gotcha, but I’m still bummed that it got this much cultural inertia behind it. It’s sort of like quoting an uncited Wikipedia article at someone to prove you’re right.
