The US says it has killed dozens of people in strikes on small vessels from Venezuela which it alleges carry 'narcotics' and 'narco-terrorists.' But US correspondent Dan Mitchinson says Venezuela's fighting back. "The President of Venezuela, who's accusing the US of 'fabricating' this new war - but yet, we see the drug trail kind of leads back there as well."

A federal grand jury indicted former Trump national security adviser John Bolton on 18 counts of illegally hoarding or sending sensitive information, leaving the longtime pillar of the Republican foreign policy establishment facing decades in prison. Christina Bobb, an attorney in Washington, DC, with an emphasis in national security law and author of Defiant: Inside the Mar-a-Lago Raid and the Left's Ongoing Lawfare, joins me to discuss the indictment, the likelihood of conviction, and what Bolton is really facing as accountability seems to be coming from him.A landmark ceasefire between Israel and Hamas has taken effect following a U.S.-brokered peace agreement credited to President Trump. The deal includes the release of all living Israeli hostages in exchange for 1,900 Palestinian detainees, marking one of the most significant diplomatic breakthroughs in recent Middle East history. However, mere days later, Hamas began attacking anyone in Gaza they thought might be a threat to their control. Donald Trump issued a firm warning to Hamas to disarm and stop killing Gazans or face "eradication." Marine Corps Colonel William Dunn (Ret.), President of Strategic Resilience Group, LLC, and author of Gunfighters Rule!, joins me to discuss: what makes this ceasefire more likely to hold compared to previous Israel–Hamas truces, what safeguards are needed to verify Hamas' compliance and prevent future attacks, what must happen next to turn this truce into lasting regional stability, and more.There was a practice run of a terror attack on Coast Guard Island Alameda in California.

Is America headed for war with Venezuela? On The Mark Thompson Show, we've been following the strikes against what the Trump Administration claims are "narco-boats" carrying drugs to the US and other countries. Though no proof has been offered in support of that, America continues to blast small boats off the coast of Venezuela to smithereens. So far, the US has blown up at least seven such boats, killing dozens of people. Trump is declaring an “armed conflict” with drug trafficking groups he has deemed international terrorists. He is also positioning dozens of warships, planes and thousands of U.S. troops in the Caribbean Sea. He admitted authorizing CIA covert operations in Venezuela. In addition, Trump is escalating tensions with Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, saying he was illegitimately elected and is leading a narcotics cartel. Trump says he is ready to go further than blowing up boats: “we're going to stop them by land." All of this is raising concerns that the US could be marching toward war with Venezuela. With Trump poised to send National Guard troops into Portland and Chicago and threatening to do so in San Francisco, we will look at the court decisions preventing him from making such moves, for now. Former federal prosecutor and now defense attorney David Katz will explain. Nathan Taylor from Election Truth Alliance will stop in to update us on his work to shine a light on data he claims indicates possible trouble with the results of the 2024 election of President Trump.

Since the start of September, President Donald Trump has ordered a series of lethal strikes on boats in the Caribbean Sea, killing dozens of people. His administration has justified the attacks by accusing the boats of carrying drugs. But, we're more than two months in, and we still haven't seen any substantial evidence that the people killed were involved in trafficking narcotics. Meanwhile, Trump appears to be focused on Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, and last week, Trump acknowledged he authorized the CIA to conduct covert operations in Venezuela. So, to talk more about Venezuela and the legality- or lack thereof- of the Trump administration's ongoing campaign in the Caribbean Sea, we spoke with Tess Bridgeman, co-editor-in-chief of Just Security and Senior Fellow and Visiting Scholar at the Reiss Center on Law and Security at NYU School of Law. She previously served as Special Assistant to the President, Associate Counsel to the President, and Deputy Legal Adviser to the National Security Council (NSC), and at the U.S. State Department in the Office of the Legal Adviser.And in headlines, Vice President JD Vance visits Israel as Hamas continues to return the bodies of hostages, ICE recruits are going up against fitness testing, and the government is as shutdown as ever.Show Notes:Check out Tess's work – justsecurity.org/author/bridgemantess/Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Since early September, President Donald Trump has ordered a series of U.S. military strikes on vessels in the Caribbean Sea the administration claims are linked to drug trafficking groups, leaving 32 people dead. One recent strike left two survivors, briefly detained by the U.S. military, and now reportedly repatriated to Colombia and Ecuador. The latest strike was reported by the Trump administration to have targeted suspected drug traffickers affiliated with a Colombian rebel group. The White House continues to defend the killings as part of a so-called war on “narco-terrorists,” while legal experts have resoundingly rejected the administration's claims to wartime authorities.Tess Bridgeman is joined by Rebecca Ingber and Brian Finucane to assess the latest strikes, the brief detention of two survivors, where the campaign may be headed, and what it signals for executive power, accountability, and oversight moving forward.Show Notes:Tess Bridgeman, Brian Finucane, Rebecca Ingber, The Just Security Podcast: Murder on the High Seas Part II What We Know About the U.S. Vessel Strikes One Month In (October 7, 2025, also available on YouTube)Tess Bridgeman, Brian Finucane, Rebecca Ingber, The Just Security Podcast: Murder on the High Seas?

On Wednesday, President Trump confirmed that he has authorised the CIA to take covert lethal action in Venezuela. The revelation came off the back of a series of US strikes on Venezuelan boats accused of transporting drugs in the Caribbean Sea, which resulted in the death of 27 people in what some human rights experts are calling "extrajudicial executions". The US military operation has the region on edge, leaving analysts wondering whether this is just part of a new war on drugs, or a push to bring down the Maduro regime. The BBC's Will Grant briefs us on these latest developments, and the CIA's history in Latin America.

Since early September, President Trump has ordered the U.S. military to conduct multiple lethal strikes on boats in the Caribbean Sea suspected of drug trafficking, resulting in at least 21 deaths. These unprecedented military actions raise critical questions about the identity of those targeted, the Administration's legal justification, and the scope of presidential power to designate “terrorists” and authorize lethal force. What checks exist from Congress, courts, or the executive branch to limit such authority?On this episode of the Just Security Podcast, cross-hosted with the Reiss Center on Law and Security, host Tess Bridgeman and co-host Rachel Goldbrenner are joined by experts Rebecca Ingber and Brian Finucane to analyze the facts, the law, and the broader implications of this military campaign in the Caribbean.They examine an important new chapter in the use of force against drug cartels and explores how far presidential powers extend in such contexts.Show Notes: This is a joint podcast of Just Security and NYU Law School's Reiss Center on Law and Security.Executive branch reporting on the vessel strikes, on Tren de Aragua, and related resources:48-Hour Report pursuant to the War Powers Resolution (September 4, 2025) (Note: For a living resource containing this and all other publicly available reports submitted pursuant to the War Powers Resolution since its enactment in 1973, see NYU Law's Reiss Center on Law and Security's War Powers Resolution Reporting Project)Notice to Congress Under 50 U.S.C. §1543a (Section 1230 of the FY 2024 National Defense Authorization Act) (undated, made public October 2, 2025)National Intelligence Council, Venezuela: Examining Regime Ties to Tren de Aragua (April 7, 2025)Listeners may also be interested in Just Security‘s Collection: U.S. Lethal Strikes on Suspected Drug Traffickers (updated, Oct. 3, 2025), including:Mary B.

Episode 211 of The Adventure Podcast features adventurer Ollie Treviso. Ollie recently completed a 14,000km, 20-month walk along the Andes, from Tierra del Fuego to the Caribbean Sea. In this episode, Ollie opens up about how far he's come - from a rugby-playing teenager abusing steroids and working as an insurance broker, to living in a cave in Gran Canaria, working on farms, and eventually discovering the power of slow, human-paced travel. Matt and Ollie explore his first long-distance walk across the UK, complete with an over-packed rucksack, no tent experience, and a rule never to pay for accommodation, and how these early stumbles laid the foundations for his South American journey. They also talk candidly about grief and loss, why walking feels most meaningful, resilience, identity, and the uneasy balance between adventure, ego, and storytelling. This conversation is longer than normal. But its honest, fun, and full of surprising side stories. What emerges is not just the tale of an epic trek, but an honest reflection on what drives someone to keep walking into the unknown.For extra insights from the worlds of adventure, exploration and the natural world, you can find The Adventure Podcast+ community on Substack.

As Trump declares a highly illegal “war on drug cartels” to distract from the Epstein Files, let's turn instead to a much-needed source of inspiration: Harriet Tubman. Described by her first biographer and friend Sarah Hopkins Bradford as “clairvoyant,” Tubman offers timeless lessons in resilience, strategy, and hope under brutal oppression. If you're looking for concrete ways to resist life under a chaos-weapon Russian asset, this week's bonus episode of Gaslit Nation is for you! We share an excerpt from our Book Club discussion of Harriet, the Moses of Her People by Bradford, a children's author who helped preserve Tubman's legacy. We also examine the asymmetrical warfare waged by today's nihilists–and no, we don't mean the ones in Congress–but the “lone shooters” who are actually working together to stage “performance shootings” for one another for a growing outlet for their despair and rage. Trump's government shutdown certainly doesn't help.  Look for the full recording of this week's salon and Read & Resist book club discussion on Monday morning, along with the Zoom link for Monday's salon at 4pm ET.  Our salons are a place to sharpen strategy, share solidarity, and to remember that you're not losing your mind: things really are that bad. And because despair is what the nihilists want, we're throwing a Gaslit Nation Halloween Party with Sister District. Costumes optional, democracy mandatory. We'll be fighting for must-win Virginia races, and yes, you should RSVP. Because if Harriet Tubman can face down the unimaginable, you can probably survive a Zoom party.

Recently the US Military has been bombing boats in the Caribbean Sea off the coast of Venezuela. This marks a major escalation, and a new development in the US Empire's hybrid war on Venezuela that has been waged over the last 20 years. In this episode we speak with Joe Emersberger who along with Justin Podour authored the book Extraordinary Threat: The US Empire, the Media, and Twenty Years of Coup Attempts in Venezuela for Monthly Review Press. "All Elements in Place for a US Strike on Venezuela" by Joe Emersberger and Richard Harris on Venezuelanalysis We talk about the origins of this tactic of aerial assassinations, its deployment in international waters, and whether we could see the US expand its assassination program to target government leaders like Nicolas Maduro as we have seen the so-called state of Israel do - with full US backing - across West Asia. We also discuss the merging of war on drugs policies with the policies of the war on terror, and contextualize these so-called wars. Finally, we talk about some of the dynamics that hem in progressive and socialistic projects in Latin America, using Joe's long engagement with Ecuador as an example. Joe Emersberger is based in Canada. He is co-author of Extraordinary Threat: The US Empire, the Media, and Twenty Years of Coup Attempts in Venezuela. His work can be found on Substack “Unedited Anti-Imperialism”. Older articles of his can be found on VenezuelAnalysis, Counterpunch, Fair.org, Znet and Mint Press News As always if you like the work that we do, the best way to support the show is through either to be come a patron of the show at patreon.com/millennialsarekillingcapitalism or through either an ongoing pledge or one time donation through BuyMeACoffee.

Is the President authorized to blow up boats and kill suspected drug smugglers? Beth speaks with Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) about Trump's use of military force to strike vessels in the Caribbean Sea without due process, trials, or congressional authorization. The Senator explains why these extrajudicial killings violate constitutional war powers and put America at greater risk internationally. Why aren't Republicans checking executive overreach? Senator Van Hollen describes how the GOP has become a "rubber stamp" for Trump, abandoning its constitutional duty to provide checks and balances. From dismantling congressional war powers to remaining silent on due process violations, he explores what it means when an entire party contracts out its judgment to one person. What levers does Congress actually have right now? As the government funding deadline approaches, Van Hollen discusses the Democratic strategy of "creative confrontation" - from showing up at ICE detention centers to challenging book bans at the Naval Academy. He explains why he won't give Trump a "blank check" even from the minority, and what safeguards against illegal withholding of funds could look like in any budget deal. Ready to go deeper?

Several weeks after President Trump ordered a military strike on a small boat in the Caribbean Sea, killing 11 people supposedly suspected of drug smuggling, this saga has gotten much worst. Last Monday, Trump bombed another vessel, killing three. Again his administration released zero evidence supporting the decision, and the specifics in this case make this campaign look increasingly lawless. And we just learned that the White House is quietly circulating a draft bill that would vastly expand Trump's authority for these bombings. Its details offer a damning glimpse into how unrestrained he aims to be going forward. We talked to Brian Finucane, who's been writing great analysis of the situation as an editor at Just Security. He explains why the specifics of that draft bill are so alarming, why the bombings appear to constitute serious abuses of power, and why all this may be hurtling us toward darker lawlessness to come. (Since we recorded, Trump bombed a third vessel in similarly lawless fashion. Looking for More from the DSR Network? Click Here: https://linktr.ee/deepstateradio Learn more about your ad choices.

In the late 1890s a US congressman argued that the United States had the right to seize Cuba because he believed it was made of silt that had washed out of the mouth of the Mississippi River which made it literally US soil. That story inspired Puerto Rican Jewish poet Aurora Levins Morales to apply for a writing residency in New Orleans, and to travel the length of the river from Minnesota to the Gulf Coast, doing "poet research." In Silt: Prose Poems (Palabrera Press, 2019) she follows the pathways of water across the natural and social landscapes of the Mississippi River and the Caribbean Sea, tracing the real residues of their relationship, and turning that long story into a kind of prayer, for our waters, our planet and our lives.In this conversation, Jeffrey Herlihy-Mera, Joanna Cifredo de Fellman (יוחנה סיפרדו פלמן) and Aurora Levins Morales discuss Silt in the context of contemporary Puerto Rico.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Questions are mounting about President Trump's decision to bomb a small boat in the Caribbean Sea, killing all 11 people on board. The administration says these were drug cartel members who posed a threat to the United States, but many legal experts have concluded the bombing might have been illegal or a war crime. And this saga just got darker. Senator Tim Kaine and two dozen other Democrats just released a powerful letter laying out tough questions for the administration. The letter demonstrates the weakness of Trump's legal case in a freshly vivid way. And a Senate staffer tells us Kaine reached out to numerous Republicans in hopes of getting them to sign the letter, but damningly, none would. Meanwhile, new reporting indicates that the boat might have been turning around before getting hit, making Trump's decision look even worse. We talked to Scott Anderson, senior editor at Lawfare and author of a great piece analyzing the strike. He demystifies the legal and substantive complexities, sheds light on how brazenly Trump is stretching the law, and discusses whether we'll ever learn what really happened.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

On September 2nd, 2025, the U.S. Navy killed 11 civilians on a boat in the Caribbean Sea that President Trump claimed was operated by the Venezuelan gang, Tren de Aragua, who were allegedly carrying drugs bound for the United States.  The response was swift. Legal experts weighed in on  whether this attack was a violation of international law and if it was considered a criminal act against civilians. So is this attack on civilians considered a war crime? And how will Venezuela respond to this attack?  On this episode of Lawyer 2 Lawyer, Craig joins guest Dr. Anthony C. Arend, Professor of Government and Foreign Service and Chair of the Department of Government at Georgetown University. Craig & Tony discuss the recent U.S. Navy attack on a Venezuelan boat in the Caribbean Sea. We will talk about the specifics and legal issues behind the strike, and whether this was a violation of international law, and a criminal act against civilians.

Jimmy and Children's Health Defense's Mary Holland discuss Donald Trump's recent shift in tone on Operation Warp Speed, highlighting his ultimatum to Pfizer to release full data on COVID-19 vaccines. They frame this as Trump aligning more closely with RFK Jr., who has long criticized vaccine safety and pandemic policies.  The two accuse Pfizer of fraud, cover-ups, and knowingly downplaying vaccine injuries, while suggesting legal consequences under the PREP Act for willful misconduct. They argue that Trump was misled by Anthony Fauci, Francis Collins, and Big Pharma interests, and that a broader “COVID reckoning” is coming as lies and conflicts of interest are exposed. Plus segments on the pushback RFK received after rooting out Big Pharma shills from the CDC and Trump's boasting about killing 11 suspected “drug runners” from Venezuela in the Caribbean Sea.

//The Wire//2300Z September 5, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: VENEZUELAN AIRCRAFT CONDUCT FLIGHT OVER US NAVY SHIPS, PROMPTING US RESPONSE. BRITISH CABINET SHUFFLES PERSONNEL FOLLOWING RESIGNATION OF DEPUTY PRIME MINISTER DUE TO TAX EVASION SCANDAL. USA/INDIA RELATIONS DETERIORATE AFTER CHINESE DEFENSE SUMMIT.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Germany: Concern is growing regarding the sudden deaths of several politicians/candidates from the Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party. Local party officials have reported that 7x candidates have died unexpectedly, two weeks before the next round of elections on September 14th. Analyst Comment: German authorities have stated that two of the deaths were from natural causes, however the others have not been explained. Independent verification is not possible at this time as government and party officials are withholding the names of the deceased for reasons of family privacy.United Kingdom: Several high-level positional changes have taken place throughout the British government following the departure of Deputy PM Angela Rayner. This morning Yvette Cooper announced her resignation from the Home Office, with Shabana Mahmood taking her place as Home Secretary. Cooper will become the Foreign Secretary, and David Lammy (the former Foreign Secretary) is to become Deputy Prime Minister.Analyst Comment: This reshuffling is largely due to several scandals that have plagued Starmer's government for several months. From the migrant crisis to internal corruption scandals, the last straw was the discovery that Angela Rayner had not paid property taxes on one of her residences, which totaled roughly £40,000 worth of tax evasion. This rapidly snowballed into a big scandal, especially since she has previously called out the tax-loopholes utilized by other politicians in the past.Caribbean: Yesterday, 2x Venezuelan F-16's conducted an overflight of the US Navy Task Force currently conducting operations in the southern Caribbean Sea. In response to this action, this morning the Pentagon announced the deployment of 10x F-35 fighter aircraft to Fort Buchanan in Puerto Rico. This forward deployment will be conducted to allegedly engage in kinetic targeting of narcotics trafficking platforms, and also to provide more air-to-air targeting capabilities in the region.Analyst Comment: As expected, the situation has escalated. The deployment of F-35s usually points to one possibility...an expansion of the conflict. More specifically, F-35's would not be needed to target simple narco-vessels but would be a satisfactory platform for engaging more substantial threats, such as the F-16's the US sold to the Venezuelan military back in the 1980's.-HomeFront-Washington D.C. - Relations between the US and India have deteriorated somewhat over the past few days, following the trade negotiations that have been ongoing for some time. Earlier this week, China hosted the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit, which coincided with a visit by President Vladimir Putin, and Prime Minister Modi. This summit resulted in India re-affirming their desire to strengthen ties with their fellow BRICS partners, instead of growing ties with the United States. This in turn has lead to a worsening of relations with the United States, and the White House taking a more hardball approach to trade negotiations with India. After the display of friendship between India and China, President Trump has floated the idea of blocking American tech companies from outsourcing work to India.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: There is another angle to the deteriorating US/India relations that is worthy of note. Brief scandal erupted on social media yesterday as multiple influential accounts were discovered to be posting suspiciously pro-India content, in response to the White House making statements that

On Wednesday, the U.S. military sank a small boat in the southern Caribbean Sea, killing 11 people. U.S. officials claimed the boat was transporting drugs to the United States from Venezuela and alleged the 11 people on board were narco-terrorist members of the international gang Tren de Aragua (TDA).

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and Carl Cannon discuss this morning's Capitol Hill press conference featuring victims of abuse by Jeffrey Epstein, Donald Trump's reaction, and the chances that the House will vote to release more of the Epstein files to the public. They also talk about the GOP's plan to rebrand “The Big Beautiful Bill” in order to help keep control of the House in 2026, and a Washington Post article outlining the Democrat's plan to retake the chamber. Next, Carl Cannon and RCP White House correspondent Phil Wegmann discuss the U.S. naval strike on a small craft in the Caribbean Sea that the Trump Administration claims was carrying drugs from Venezuela, as the U.S. ramps up pressure on Venezuelan President Nicolos Maduro. And finally, Maggie Miller talks to RealClear Investigations writer James Varney about an enormous data center under construction in rural Louisiana that will house servers for Meta's rapid expansion into artificial intelligence. The $10 billion dollar project poses both challenges and opportunities for the local community and will require new sources of electricity.

This week, we're honored to welcome Oliver Treviso from Swansea, Wales, an adventurer whose extraordinary journey embodies the transformative power of getting lost to find yourself. Facing uncertainty and conflict between who he believed himself to be and who he wanted to become, Oliver made a bold decision that would change his life forever.Oliver takes us on his incredible 20-month trek along the entire length of the Andes Mountains—from Argentina to Venezuela's Caribbean Sea. Covering seven countries and 14,000 kilometers on foot, he describes stepping off the plane in Argentina and feeling overwhelmed by the magnitude of what lay ahead.In this episode, we explore Oliver's transformation from a young man struggling with his identity to someone who found purpose through adventure. He shares harrowing stories from the trail and the unexpected kindness of strangers. Join us for a conversation about finding strength through solitude, the power of taking that first step, and discovering who you are when everything familiar is stripped away.
