29·16 days agoThe article title (now?) has a second line which IMO is important to include in the headline. The whole title is currently:
Trump Named Delcy Rodríguez Venezuela’s Interim President and a US Partner in Governing the Country
Two Hours Later, She Publicly Rejected Washington, Called It an Aggressor, and Reaffirmed Loyalty to Nicolás Maduro
From the article:
US president Donald Trump said that Delcy Rodriguez had been sworn in as Venezuela’s interim president and had agreed to act in partnership with Washington—effectively allowing the United States to run the country.
“In essence, she is prepared to do what we believe is necessary to make Venezuela great again,” Trump said.
Less than two hours later, Rodriguez, who had previously served as vice-president under Nicolas Maduro, delivered a televised address to Venezuelans in which she made clear that she regarded the United States as an illegal occupier whose actions must be rejected.
“We are determined to be free,” she said. “What is being done to Venezuela is barbarism.”

This article I came across convincingly disputes the idea that JIS is meaningfully different from other cross head standards. I do not have access to the standards myself to corroborate.
Wikipedia disputes the claim of cam out being deliberate
The design is often criticized for its tendency to cam out at lower torque levels than other “cross head” designs. There has long been a popular belief that this was a deliberate feature of the design, to assemble aluminium aircraft without overtightening the fasteners.[15]: 85 [16] There is no good evidence for this suggestion, and the property is not mentioned in the original patents.[17]
