Top defense lawyers already angling to represent Maduro, CNN legal analyst says
From CNN's Zoe Sottile
Top criminal defense lawyers are already angling to represent Nicolás Maduro, the president of Venezuela captured by US forces to face charges in Manhattan federal court, according to CNN senior legal analyst Elie Honig.
Maduro’s legal case is attractive to high-powered defense lawyers for a few reasons, Honig told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins on Saturday.
First, the case is “extremely high stakes.”
Additionally, the Venezuelan president “is obviously a very wealthy individual who can pay top dollar for his defense team.”
The case is also going to be “massively high profile” — and “big-time criminal defense lawyers like to be involved in big-time cases.”
Finally, the case will likely involve “novel constitutional and international law arguments” that “some of these defense lawyers would like a chance to argue,” Honig said.
“We’ve really seen very little like this,” he said.

Hope Venezuela doesn't spin into Libya or Iraq type chaos.
His own soldiers sold him.Did you not attend sunday school or Madrassa?
Jesus and his disciples.
Matthew 26:34
Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, Peter—this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny three times that you even know me.”
Peter said to him, “Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you!”
Matthew 26:48-50 (NIV): "Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: 'The one I kiss is the man; arrest him.' Going at once to Jesus, Judas said, 'Greetings, Rabbi!' and kissed him. Jesus replied, 'Friend, do what you have come for.' Then the men seized Jesus and arrested him."
If you have ever worked with the police,spent time in a military barracks or with presidential guards,You can never trust them.
Even in the most advanced democracies,Only a fool of a president thinks he is in charge.We saw Kennedy killed like a dog in the streets.
Well Maduro's VP has taken over as acting president.
Being captured was just stupid for a guy like Maduro. There is ample precedent from Noriega, Iran, etc - US has used thug tactics for decades. Iran supreme leader has doubles to avoid US and Israeli attacks or capture. Only a fool can ignore such clear and open threat.

Hanging out in Ngong areas today, and MP Ngokoyo is DOA. Ruto's popularity in the small towns in the Ngong area is through the roof. I like listening to the people on the ground to gauge what is happening. The elite class has no grasp of what the hoi polloi on the ground think!

You need money,International criminals and goons to win.
The likes of Tsishekedi Ramaphosa sudan generals want Ruto out im 2027.
Luhya is more like opposition 60 v 40 Ruto going by Khwisero and Kabuchai.
Will soft Kalonzo and fat Matiang'i manage that hard politics? Remember it's not RiggyG running.
Of course opposition is past 50% in western BUT IT needs money and goons.
