Venezuela's ruling party is facing internal divisions after 27 years of unity. The government, once tightly aligned under the ideology of the late President Hugo Chávez, is now showing cracks. President Nicolás Maduro was captured in January, and his successor, Delcy Rodríguez, is making changes that include complying with U.S. demands, and she is reshuffling the government. This shift has sparked criticism from Chavismo supporters, who are voicing their disapproval on the streets and social media. The government's warming relationship with the U.S. is a major point of contention, highlighting the party's struggle between ideology and self-interest.

Former Venezuelan opposition candidate Edmundo González is calling for presidential elections as the five-month mark of interim President Delcy Rodríguez’s administration approaches, following a U.S. military intervention that ousted Nicolás Maduro in January. The 76-year-old former diplomat was recognized by several countries as the legitimate winner of the July 2024 elections amid a post-election crisis and street protests as the opposition alleged fraud. Electoral records that showed González’s victory over Maduro were deemed credible by international observers. González took to social media on Saturday to call for elections.

New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill has sent state police to establish designated protest zones and vehicle checkpoints outside an immigration detention center in Newark. The facility has been the site of violent demonstrations and arrests in recent days. Sherrill says the decision comes as clashes between protesters and federal immigration enforcement agents at Delaney Hall have intensified. She adds that the situation “has grown unsafe” and “completely unacceptable.” U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin called the measures a “win for law and order.” The protests began a week ago after immigrant advocates said detainees launched a hunger strike over poor living conditions.
