maduro is mafia and everybody around him is organized crime ring.agine they're engaged in. so you break them the way you break an organized crime ring. you put pressure on all of them until these thieves and these criminals that have no honor they start turning on each other. let me tell you this, every single prominent official in venezuela with absence of maduro has reached out to somebody looking for a deal. that is a fact. that they haven't taken one yet doesn't mean they won't at some point. these are not good people. they're thieves, they're liars, they're crooks. ultimately they will turn on each other and we got to keep the pressure and the president and his administration is doing tremendous job bringing together international coalition. 54 countries are involved, not just the u.s. 54 countries, including all of late minute america. brian: you say they have only days left of food and energy? >> so venezuela because they keep stealing all this money, they are about to hit an epic humanitarian crisis we haven't seen in this hemisphere and the

these are the professional soldiers i think if maduro unleashed would turn on maduro and out of him. these are mafia and young men who have a machine gun and are terrorizing that country. the problem is it's all about timing. it's all about relying on a military intervention is the last resort. let's allow this to play out tragically for the moment. trish: how do you do that? six days, no power. a starving population. at what point does nicolas maduro -- more whrooting video of people going into a store. they are drinking out of sewers for goodness sake. when does this tart to break? when does maduro say for the good of my country, i'm going to leave and turn this over to somebody who can insure that we get the necessary aid in. >> i think it's just pushing closer and closer to some type of intervention. you remember about a week ago you asked me this question. and i told you, it's not going to happen. it's highly improbable. as you can see as events begin to unfurl in venezuela. and as the anarchy begins to reign in that country. some military solution is over the horizon. but what's the great dang

on venezuela, we can all agree that the socialist policies of nicolas maduro have turned the once rich country into a failed mafia state with little food and medicine. millions of people are suffering more every day and forced to flee to other countries in the region. maduro's armed thugs are blocking the delivery of humanitarian aide. they've shot innocent civilians, kidnapped the chief of staff of interim president guaido and just yesterday attacked guaido's mote motorcade. i would also like to know he has taken four texans and put them in a venezuelan prison. i support taking back their country through free and fair elections and applaud countries like brazil and the lima group for their effort. secretary pompeo it's a great honor to welcome you today as a secretary and former colleague and friend. i've always said that partisanship as the chairman says must end at the water's edge. this hearing gives us a chance to put partisan politics aside and offer solutions to complex issues. i look forward to your testimony, and i yield back. >> thank you mr. mccall. now let me introduce our witness. michael pompeo is t

the only people, it seems, that maduro has with him supporting him are either outsiders like the russians or the cubans, or this old guard, sort of also mafiae vibrancy of the country seems to me all to be with the op cig, no? -- opposition, no? >> actually not with the opposition, actually with the -- david: the opposition to maduro. >> the legitimate president of vens venezuela which is juan guaido. 90% of venezuelans do not want this regime, which is pure evil. and there are moments in life where society, we have to deal with evil in its pure essence. and this is what happens, and i'm not being exaggerating. this is what happens in nazi germany at some point, and this is what happened in libya -- david: absolutely. human condition. >> and also it's pure evil. which happens to be, as trish regan -- and say hi to trish -- which happens to be a brutal socialist dictatorship. but this is beyond that. it's a matter of democracy against tyranny. so venezuela right now, it's the ground of a major power struggle. and that's just not the cubans and the russians, but also chinese at some point and iranians -- david: absolutely. >> and turkey. it's
