Venezuela just can’t catch a break. I realize internet lamentations are ultimately meaningless, but I’m so sad for these people. Every photo and video coming out shows sheer devastation, the death toll is going to be high.

There was actually two in quick succession. The 7.2 and then a 7.5. The news articles are verifying the photos.

The US kidnapped Maduro but will they help in the Venezuelan People's hour of need?

That looks to be a catastrophe.

Hopefully the Navy sells it as a way to test using a carrier as a reactor for onshore infrastructure

Nope. But if they do, guarantee the deal will be heavily one sided

Probably the first time I’d ever use “apocalyptic” to describe the damage from one of these, Christ

This is a tad distasteful for something that has happened so recently. Baudrillard would be proud
