14.01.2026 Maduro returns to Venezuela
What you are about to read is important, and I would appreciate it if, while you are reading it, you would press play and listen to the song.
I'm not going to say that I have the ability to see the future, but I almost do. With very few clues, I can predict what will happen, the end of the story, with a high degree of accuracy. Almost always, sooner or later, what I think will happen usually comes true. I interpret it from details that no one pays attention to or considers important, but which tell me a lot.
With regard to Venezuela, for example, I have several predictions. I have decided to write them down here so that when they come true, there will be a record of them, and I can say, "I told you so." To begin with, Maduro is going to be sent back to Venezuela. I will explain this in more detail below, and you will agree with me.
The first thing I'm going to tell you is that Diosdado Cabello can't release the prisoners from El Helicoide even though he's pretty scared because most of them are already dead. They died in there, during torture or whatever, people in Venezuela don't seem to care much about details, they're not very refined, and there were many kidnapped. I mean that they would kill them through negligence, not necessarily on purpose, or maybe they would. The dictatorship didn't say anything about them being dead because they play with uncertainty, but now that they have a list of people to get rid of, it's going to become clear, they're going to have to say it, and he's pretty scared, scared shitless I'd say.
So what will happen is that they will be pressured to dismantle the Helicoide and release the prisoners, and in the end they will have to do so, leaving the dead bodies in plain sight, but they will dismantle all the regime's torture centers so that there will be no more political prisoners. Or at least that is the image they will want to project.
Trump will reach an agreement with American oil companies to enter Venezuela and reactivate crude oil production as it should be done. All production will be destined for the United States. To do this, they can either establish new extraction operations with an investment, but most likely they will not do that, they will simply work with what already exists, or with what remains. They will make repairs to get everything up and running, I don't think they will invest much more.
The idea behind this is not only for the United States to keep Venezuelan oil, but also to prevent the Chavista regime from continuing to send oil to Cuba, Russia, China, and all of the United States' enemies. From now on, it will only be sold to the United States, which will decide what to do with it.
Now, the point of all this: Maduro will be put back where he was. The judge will say that there is not enough evidence, or that he is not linked to the Cartel of the Suns, or that this cartel does not even exist. He will say whatever he has to say so that Maduro is exonerated from the charges against him. So Maduro will meet with Trump, and before he returns to Venezuela, they will reach an agreement, a pact, according to which there will be no reprisals, and the US will be in charge of oil extraction in Venezuela and will ask him to commit to changing the way things are done (no more repressive violence in Venezuela). Maduro will commit to holding clean and free elections in a few years. Elections that, of course, will never take place or will be rigged. In short: everything will go back to exactly the way it was before, with the difference that the US will control the oil and the era of terror for political prisoners will come to an end.
What Trump will take away from that meeting is that Maduro is going to give him all the information about the fraudulent Smartmatic voting machines that stole the election from him five years ago. Maduro will blame the Cubans for the machines. Trump will gain information with which to accuse the Democratic Party of electoral fraud, and with which he can also justify entering Cuba, which is what Marco Rubio really wants: to dismantle the Castro regime. Maduro will get rid of the Cubans, who were the ones really pulling the strings in Venezuela and keeping him on a very short leash. He was probably more afraid of the Cubans than of Trump. In the end, if they manage to straighten out Cuba, Venezuela will be easier because without the Cubans pulling the strings, there is no one competent there.
Why do I say this? It's common sense. In Venezuela, everything has become so chaotic in the 28 years that Chavismo has been in power that it will be impossible to restore order. The Chavista regime is like a thousand-headed hydra with huge slums full of criminal gangs under the command of the state's repressive apparatus, to whom they have given military weapons. The institutions are completely controlled by Chavismo, the security forces have 3,000 generals with unlimited credit cards paid for by the government, drug routes crisscross the entire country, and terrorist groups operate within the borders. In short: OK, they got rid of the visible head, but how are they going to turn everything else around? Who is going to control the colectivos, the armed forces, the Colombian guerrillas, the corrupt institutions, etc.? It's impossible. Will Trump move to Venezuela? Will they send half the army to occupy the country? It would be very costly and impractical. The only solution is to leave the power structure intact and try to control the six or seven people who rule over everyone else.
So Maduro will return to Miraflores, much to the dismay of the Venezuelan people, who will have to endure Chavismo for yet another long period. A Chavismo with fewer excesses, less violence, monitored by the US government, supervised, if you will, by Trump, but Chavismo nonetheless. I fear that it will be difficult to rid them of Chavismo.
I imagine they discussed all this with Maria Corina Machado first. They must have convinced her to accept all this. It would have been impossible to put her in charge, and they explained that to her. They told her that they would not leave her empty-handed if she kept quiet and did not make too much noise; she would take home all the prestige and the million dollars that accompany the most prestigious prize in politics, the Nobel Peace Prize.
