-Over time the relationship deteriorated, according to people briefed on the interactions. Machado and her team ignored the request for a list of political prisoners
-Grenell repeatedly pressed Machado to outline her plan for putting her surrogate candidate, Edmundo González, into office after she was barred from running. He grew frustrated when she expressed no concrete ideas of how to put the democratically elected government into power.
-Machado was upset that Grenell did not forcefully denounce Maduro as illegitimate. Grenell told colleagues that such a statement, while true, would have undercut his diplomatic outreach.
-Categorical rejection of any talks or contact with Maduro’s government has been a bedrock of Machado’s political strategy, but it has crippled her ability to build a broader coalition capable of enabling her bid for power.
-Machado’s unequivocal support of sanctions has destroyed her relations with Venezuela’s business elite, which had built a modus vivendi with Maduro to continue working in the country after a quarter-century of his government’s rule.
-Machado’s economic advisers have argued that every dollar going into Venezuela was a dollar for Mr. Maduro, a radical stance that had alienated many members of Venezuela’s civil society working to improve living conditions in the country. Her message had increasingly begun to mirror the views of the diaspora and deviated from the realities of people who remained in Venezuela.
-Machado’s team and allies in exile took to social media to attack and discredit public figures whose work deviated from their views. These actions cost Machado the support of members of the Democratic Party and many businesspeople, American and Venezuelan, who had interests in Venezuela and influence in Mr. Trump’s orbit.
-Orlando J. Pérez, a professor of political science at the University of North Texas at Dallas, said of Machado and her allies: “They don’t have the levers of power. They don’t have the institutions, and without us over assistance, they’re not going to get back into power in Venezuela.”

Sama Hoole @SamaHoole - 1931: Dr. Otto Warburg wins the Nobel Prize for discovering cancer cells cannot survive without glucose. They're glucose-dependent.
This suggests depriving cancer cells of glucose might treat cancer. Warburg proposes testing therapeutic ketosis: cancer cells need glucose, healthy cells run on ketones.
The hypothesis is brilliant. Clinical trials should begin immediately.
They don't.
Why? Chemotherapy research is exploding. Pharmaceutical companies can patent chemotherapy drugs. They cannot patent "stop eating sugar."
Throughout the 1960s-70s, scattered researchers test ketogenic diets for cancer. Small studies show promising results. Cancer cells shrink when glucose is restricted.
These studies are published in minor journals. No major institution picks them up. No pharmaceutical company funds larger trials.
Dr. Thomas Seyfried at Boston College rediscovers Warburg's work in the 2000s. After 15 years researching cancer metabolism, his conclusion: Cancer is metabolic, not primarily genetic. Ketogenic diets should be first-line therapy.
He publishes "Cancer as a Metabolic Disease" in 2012. Comprehensive. Meticulously researched.
The oncology establishment ignores it completely.
