Lele Pons, whose government name is Eleonora Pons Maronese, recently took a bold stand against the electoral fraud that occurred in Venezuela on July 28.  

In response to her vocal criticism, Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro launched a scathing attack on her during a recent rally. “Now there’s this so-called Lele Pons, and she wants to impose a government in Venezuela from Miami, with a concert on Saturday. But who said Lele Pons is a politician? Who said Lele Pons and the artists she’s rallying should determine the life of an entire country?” Maduro said, attempting to undermine her influence. 

Maduro continued by warning Pons not to underestimate the Venezuelan people. He added, “You may conspire from Miami, but in Venezuela, the Venezuelans are in charge…” His speech also touched on the National Electoral Council (CNE), a body controlled by the regime and led by the officialist Elvis Eduardo Hidrobo Amoroso. This council declared Maduro the winner with an alleged 51.2 percent of the votes, without presenting any substantial proof, such as official records. Maduro continued, sarcastically, “Now we’re really in trouble if Lele Pons is the CNE. What does she know about the CNE? But how much money is she getting behind the scenes? Be careful with manipulations, alert, consciousness,” in a clear attempt to discredit her stance.

Lele Pons, known for her massive following on social media with 53.3 million followers on Instagram and 1.8 million on X, did not stay quiet. The Venezuelan YouTuber and influencer took to her platforms to respond to Maduro: “Did it bother you? You’re not going to silence me, Maduro. Venezuela won.” Her defiant response was met with widespread support, including from X’s owner, Elon Musk, who has also been a vocal critic of Maduro. Musk tweeted, “If the dictator @NicolasMaduro blocks you, I will personally unblock you,” showing his solidarity with Pons. 

Lele Pons Is Stepping It Up for Venezuela’s Freedom

Lele Pons has been actively engaging in conversations about the situation in Venezuela. On August 9, 2024, she interviewed María Corina Machado, discussing the unconstitutional acts and violence orchestrated by the regime’s forces in the country.

With Elon Musk backing her, her bold stand against Nicolás Maduro shows the growing intersection between digital platforms and political resistance. In the fight for democracy, no platform is too small, and no voice is too insignificant.
