Juan Guaido, President of National Assembly and self-proclaimed interim president waves to the gallery during a session of the National Assembly in Caracas, Venezuela, Tuesday, April 2, 2019. Venezuela's chief justice on Monday asked lawmakers of the rival pro-government National Constituent Assembly to strip Guaido of his parliamentary immunity, taking a step toward prosecuting him for alleged crimes as he seeks to oust President Nicolas Maduro.
He declared himself Venezuela’s interim president in January, and vowed to overthrow Maduro. So far, however, Maduro has avoided jailing the man that the administration of U.S. President Donald Trump and roughly 50 other nations recognize as Venezuela’s legitimate leader. The Constituent Assembly met a day after Maduro ally and Venezuela Supreme Court of Justice Maikel Moreno ordered the legislative body to strip Guaido’s immunity for violating an order banning him leaving the country while under investigation by the attorney general. The opposition leader is also accused of inciting violence linked to street protests, and of receiving illicit funds from abroad.
Thank God the traitor Guado will finally face justice for conspiring with a foreign power to overthrow his own country, and attacking the power grid to terrorize and punish the population for supporting the president.
Maduro must go out of venezuelian policy. Will be better for people and country if Maduro go out from Venezuela. Forever!
“Possible arrest.” This seems like conjecture to generate interest. If Maduro arrests Guaido, the alarm bells should ring. Otherwise, it seems like a posturing move to shore up legitimacy amidst ramped up intl’ attacks.

Good. How long would this take literally any other country on Earth to lock up someone who literally prepares an invasion with his buddies overseas?
Every day, a step closer to world war 3
Heil Maduro!
EvanLSolomon This is wrong!
This also provides a better reason for other countries to send troops. This is a good opportunity for the Prime Minister of Canada.
More hot garbage from the desperate communists. 1st Guaido couldn’t leave the country then Guaido couldn’t come back to Venezuela, now this... Free elections for Venezuela NOW!
What would happen in the US if a person declared themself the provisional leader of the government and encouraged sedition? Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Imagine if the leader of the senate opposition declared himself the President of the US with approval and financial backing of China. They would have been arrested months ago.
I wish I could say unf-ingreal, but this is Maduro. Sick POS Maduro is.
Good! Now throw his ass in jail. Juan Guaido is the US's regime change imposter while Maduro is a twice democratically elected President! THE US IS ATTACKING VENEZUELA & MILLIONS OF PPL ARE SUFFERING! THIS NEEDS TO STOP MR TRUMP! HandsOffVenezuelaTrump realDonaldTrump GOP
That would be a very terrible idea.
Maduro must be really scared of his country’s citizens to resort to this.
DanielLarison If this happens it is likely the U.S will threaten military action. Thus, the Maduro regime will play it carefully and instead use it to intimidate him, than simply arrest him and be engulfed by the obvious anti-authoritarian discourses/condemnation which such an act empowers.
Putin has troops in Caracas.
HELL YEAH jail his ass
A hand picked white guy by a foreign power - yeah that sounds about right. Just imagine Russia installing an ‘opposition leader’ in the USA to take over the democratically elected president.
Atomic clock is starting to pay attention
I thought the opposition control the Assembly.
That's what should happen to a coup leader.
While the press obsessed over “her emails,” they never even bothered to LAY EYES on this woman who wrote trump’s emails for him for years, who, like Cohen, lied about trump’s net worth, and who has “heard everything, and taken great notes,” said trump.
Maduro is not the President FakeNews
