"In São Paulo, popular movements staged a protest outside the U.S. Consulate in the city’s southern zone against the U.S. military attack on Venezuelan territory, which reportedly left more than 40 people dead..."

"'Venezuela is no-one's colony,' another placard read, a swipe at US President Donald Trump's announcement Saturday that Washington would 'run' Venezuela during an unspecified transitional period."

"Mr. Leblanc said Canada should be concerned because the action 'gives the green light' to Mr. Trump following through on his other territorial ambitions, such as seizing Greenland or Canada, the latter of which the U.S. President has said he wishes to annex as the 51st state."

"Many protesters expressed concern that Saturday's strikes in Venezuela could escalate into a prolonged conflict, while others questioned President Donald Trump's intentions behind the capture of the country's president." #TheResistance

"I'm so ashamed," said attendee Larry Tobiska of Trump's actions. "I saw it in The Seattle Times this morning. And the first thing I read this morning in the paper, and I just ... I reacted with grief." #TheResistance
