they are finally in Santiago Chile... and they have paid all the fines, and work permits, to allow them to stay in Chile. They have a relative to stay with.

The situation is Caracas is still quite bad, high inflation, Maduro's people still in charge, gunmen at intersections demanding everyone's phone to check for any text messages or social media against Maduro... the first few nights they would execute people now they arrest them and send them god only knows where. People are afraid to leave their apartments and there is little food anywhere.

So far this has cost me over a thousand dollars... the trip from Venezuela to Santiago was 11 days, they sleep on the bus or at the bus stations or outside. The little girl got sick...

We created a horror show there, now the media has walked away from the mess that Trump / Rubio created.
