Meaningless nonsense or not, this is the classic narrative manufacturing where the US creates a security threat and then criticizes the targeted state for addressing the security threat. Why should Venezuela not be increasing surveillance while the US is attacking and killing its citizens?
And openly bragging that the CIA is conducting operations on the ground from the President's mouth. I mean they are at war. It isn't theoretical, their enemy the US empire is off their coast poking and prodding at them, arming up for an attack, has said it considers their government illegitimate and has made its goals toppling that government and taking the oil. This is a siege situation and harsh measures may be needed.
Creating double binds is an old standby of US foreign policy.
