En Venezuela, al menos un centenar de personas fueron excarceladas tras haber sido detenidas durante las protestas surgidas tras las elecciones presidenciales de 2024. Estos comicios que otorgaron la reelección al presidente Nicolás Maduro, estuvieron marcados por denuncias de fraude y por arrestaciones arbitrarias.   Esta excarcelación, la más significativa en los últimos meses, ocurre en un contexto de creciente tensión entre Washington y Caracas, especialmente tras la incautación de petroleros en el Caribe por parte de Estados Unidos. Andreina Baduel, coordinadora del Comité por la Libertad de los Presos Políticos, comparte sus impresiones sobre esta excarcelación.  “Junto con organizaciones de derechos humanos, organismos internacionales y gobiernos del mundo, hemos hecho saber la necesidad de la excarcelación de presos políticos, porque tenemos perfectamente claro —nos ha tocado vivir situaciones de persecución durante más de 18 años, que incluso llevaron a la muerte de mi padre en prisión, bajo custodia del Estado— que, si no hay excarcelaciones y si no se brinda atención médica especializada y oportuna a los presos políticos, lamentablemente podemos enfrentarnos a nuevas muertes bajo custodia del Estado”, dice Andreina. En medio de las tensiones entre Estados Unidos y Venezuela, se han reportado denuncias sobre amenazas de ejecuciones extrajudiciales contra presos políticos. ¿Tiene alguna información sobre estas amenazas? "A raíz de todas estas acciones a nivel geopolítico, los presos políticos están siendo amenazados de que si llega a materializarse una acción de un gobierno extranjero, van a remeter en contra de sus vidas. Pero así como son amenazados los presos políticos, también somos amenazadas las víctimas secundarias, es decir, las familias que contenemos y que denunciamos. Mientras estamos hablando, aquí desde hace más de seis meses, yo tengo un apostamiento policial fuera de mi residencia que restringe mi movilidad, mi accionar, porque no he dejado denunciar el horror al que está siendo sometido mi hermano, sino que además tengo una labor importante en el comité. Una de las maneras de buscar quebrantar esas acciones, el régimen ha ido intensificando la persecución. Mi hermana, Márgaret Baduel, que además también es miembro activo del comité, ha sufrido dos atentados en su vehículo", añade. Andreina Baduel termina haciendo un llamado a la liberación inmediata e incondicional de todas las personas privadas de libertad por motivos políticos en Venezuela. Además, advierte que aún hay más de 900 detenidos en condiciones de horror en las diferentes carceles de todo el pais.

El régimen de Nicolás Maduro anunciaba este lunes la liberación de presos políticos, detenidos en su mayoría por las manifestaciones contra los resultados de las elecciones presidenciales de julio de 2024. Sin embargo, para familiares, ONGs y la oposición, la medida sigue siendo insuficiente, ya que en el último año y medio se han detenido a más de 2.400 personas. Una de las voces que refleja la decepción es la de Yajaira González de Canales, hermana de Alejandro González, un preso con nacionalidad española encarcelado desde febrero en la prisión de Rodeo, a las afueras de Caracas.En el programa 'Herrera en COPE', entrevistada por Sofía Buera, González ha confesado que, aunque siempre se mantiene la esperanza, "siendo un poco realistas y pisando pies sobre la tierra, en el fondo, sabía que no". Ha explicado que "el caso de Alejandro es bastante complicado", ya que no es un caso postelectoral, pero ha celebrado la excarcelación de otros.

On today's podcast:1) Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said he plans to meet his US counterpart Donald Trump “in the coming days,” signaling optimism about reaching a peace deal to end Russia’s almost four-year war.“A lot could be decided before the New Year,” Zelenskiy said Friday in a Telegram and X post after receiving an update from Rustem Umerov, Ukraine’s top negotiator with the US and head of the National Defense and Security Council. The Kyiv Post reported earlier that Zelenskiy is expected to travel to Florida, where Trump is spending the Christmas break, as soon as Sunday. It cited a person familiar with the matter who wasn’t identified. Kyiv and Washington are seeking to align on a 20-point peace plan to present to Russian President Vladimir Putin, including the provision of strong security guarantees modeled on NATO’s Article 5, and a global post-war development program for Ukraine.2) The US launched a military strike in Nigeria against Islamic State targets in a security and intelligence collaboration with the African nation’s government, which has been struggling to contain increasing levels of terrorist attacks in parts of the country. President Trump said he directed American forces to carry out “a powerful and deadly strike” against ISIS. Nigeria’s foreign affairs ministry confirmed the “precision hits on terrorist targets” and said it remains engaged with international partners including the US to address the “persistent threat of terrorism and violent extremism.”3) Gold, silver and platinum jumped to all-time highs to extend a historic end-of-year rally for precious metals, with support from escalating geopolitical tensions and US dollar weakness. Frictions in Venezuela, where the US has blockaded oil tankers and ramped up pressure on the government of Nicolás Maduro, have added to the precious metal’s haven appeal. The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index, a key gauge of the US currency’s strength, was down 0.7% for the week, its biggest drop since June.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Recuperamos un episodio que está muy de actualidad… Porque es algo que durante estos meses no ha dejado de ocurrir. En aquel momento se habían producido cuatro ataques por parte de Estados Unidos a cuatro lanchas en aguas internacionales, frente a las costas de Venezuela, en los que mataron a al menos a 17 personas. Tres meses después de aquello, este conflicto no ha hecho más que escalar: el recuento de ejecuciones por estos ataques suma más de 100 muertos y el ejército estadounidense desplegado en la zona ha empezado a bloquear barcos petroleros que salían de Venezuela. Trump, que siempre ha asegurado que las embarcaciones iban cargadas de droga hacia Estados Unidos, ha seguido acusando al Gobierno de Nicolás Maduro de estar detrás del narcotráfico. Con Andrés Gil, corresponsal de elDiario.es en Estados Unidos, y con Celina Cárquez, periodista venezolana, intentamos comprender qué hay detrás de estos ataques, de la estrategia de Trump y cómo percibe la sociedad venezolana esta escalada de tensión. *** Este episodio se emitió por primera vez el 22 de septiembre de 2025 *** *** Envíanos una nota de voz por Whatsapp contándonos alguna historia que conozcas o algún sonido que tengas cerca y que te llame la atención.

Plus d'1,6 million d'adolescentes accouchent chaque année en Amérique latine, une toutes les 20 secondes. L'Équateur est durement touché par ce phénomène, avec 88 accouchements de mineures par jour. La vice-présidente María José Pinto a demandé au président Noboa d'être chargée de réduire le phénomène des grossesses chez les jeunes filles et les adolescentes.   La jeune Afroéquatorienne Susana Sánchez a eu sa fille à 16 ans et son fils peu après. Elle vit aujourd'hui tranquillement à Nuevo Rocafuerte, mais n'oublie pas une enfance difficile après la mort de sa mère.  “J'avais 15 ans quand j'ai connu le père de ma fille. C'était une porte de sortie", explique-t-elle. Ce schéma se répète dans les régions d'Amazonie. “Les chiffres sont terrifiants. 4 gamines entre 10 et 14 ans accouchent chaque jour en Équateur et 84 adolescentes entre 14 et 19 ans”, s'inquiète la vice-présidente María José Pinto. C'est le reportage de notre correspondant en Équateur, Eric Samson, dans la région amazonienne de Nuevo Rocafuerte, tout près de la frontière péruvienne. Au Mexique, l'essor de la lucha extrema Au Mexique, berceau de la lucha libre, sorte de catch théâtral et particulièrement apprécié des Mexicains, une nouvelle déclinaison de ce sport est apparue dans les zones défavorisées des alentours de Mexico, la lucha extrema, une forme ultraviolente de lucha libre, où la traditionnelle « fausse » bagarre est remplacée par de vrais coups. Plus le sang coule, plus le spectacle est réussi. Un reportage de Marine Lebègue, correspondante de RFI à Mexico. Nicolás Maduro libère 99 prisonniers vénézuéliens Au Venezuela, 99 personnes emprisonnées après la présidentielle de 2024 ont été libérées. Le média vénézuélien d'opposition El Nacional publie sur son site la liste des prisonniers libérés déjà identifiés : il en compte 33. Parmi eux, des hommes, des femmes et des adolescents.  Le quotidien colombien El Espectador rappelle le contexte de leur incarcération : leur lien présumé avec les manifestations de 2024. Après la réélection controversée de Nicolás Maduro, les opposants au président réélu évoquaient des fraudes. À ce moment-là, plus de 2400 personnes avaient été arrêtées par le régime. De nombreux médias font le lien entre ces libérations et les tensions avec les États-Unis. L'édition sud-américaine du quotidien El Pais souligne "un geste calculé du régime pour alléger la pression, sans pour autant manifester de faiblesse ni de magnanimité excessive".  Le média nuance donc l'ampleur de ces libérations et rappelle que près de 1000 prisonniers vénézuéliens sont toujours incarcérés. El Pais l'assure, cette annonce n'est pas le signe d'une politique de détente avec l'opposition. C'est même le contraire, "la pression de Washington fournit au gouvernement Maduro des arguments supplémentaires pour radicaliser sa politique de répression des opposants". Frappes de Washington contre l'État islamique au Nigéria  Le New York Times rappelle qu'en novembre dernier, le président américain avait déjà menacé l'organisation terroriste de frappes si elle ne cessait pas les attaques sur les chrétiens nigérians. Donald Trump n'avait alors pas précisé à quelles attaques il faisait référence, selon le quotidien new-yorkais. Le média AXIOS, lui, revient sur les violences au Nigéria, le pays le plus peuplé d'Afrique où plus de 12 000 personnes ont été tuées par divers groupes cette année. Le média en ligne POLITICO rappelle que le Nigeria a déjà déclaré que les chrétiens n'étaient pas persécutés dans le pays et cite un chercheur de l'Institut d'études de sécurité Afrique : « La crise est bien plus complexe qu'une simple analyse religieuse ne le laisse entendre. » En Californie, des fêtes de Noël cauchemardesques La Californie, déjà marquée par des incendies, des pluies et des vents forts ces derniers mois, est touchée depuis quelques jours par des pluies torrentielles. Signe de la gravité de l'évènement, l'état d'urgence a été décrété par le gouverneur Gavin Newsom. Une image dans le Los Angeles Times permet de comprendre l'ampleur des pluies. On y voit Misty Cheng, une comptable de 49 ans dans sa cuisine à Wrightwood, au nord de Los Angeles. Le regard triste, elle se tient accroupie sur une gigantesque coulée de boue, qui a envahi sa maison, une maison qu'elle était en train de rénover. L'intérieur est complètement recouvert par un amas de pierres et de terre, on voit à peine sa gazinière, le dossier d'une chaise dépasse des débris. La faute à un glissement de terrain qui s'est produit le 24 décembre dans une zone déjà ravagée par des incendies au début de l'année 2025. Le Los Angeles Times rappelle le bilan de la semaine : trois personnes sont mortes dans les inondations et les glissements de terrain en Californie. En Haïti, les marchés de Noël ont fait carton plein.  Ayibopost revient sur les évènements qui se sont tenus cette année aux Gonaïves, au Cap-Haïtien et à Anse-à-Pitre. Des marchés qui ont réuni des centaines d'exposants, d'artisans locaux et qui ont attiré beaucoup de visiteurs.  Ils étaient plus de 15 000 aux Gonaïves.   Le média haïtien rappelle que les artisans rencontrent de plus en plus de difficultés à vendre leurs produits en raison de l'absence quasi totale de touristes étrangers. Dans ce contexte, les marchés de Noël offrent un espace qui permet de renouer avec un public local et, selon les organisateurs, de susciter chez les jeunes Haïtiens l'envie de se lancer dans l'entrepreneuriat.

Un temporal afecta al este de Andalucía, a Baleares, a Catalunya y a la Comunitat Valenciana. Este tiempo frío en el conjunto del país está dejando en esa zona lluvia, viento y, sobre todo, olas de grandes dimensiones. Además, algo parece que se mueve en Ucrania, Nigeria y Venezuela, donde, respectivamente, Putin parece estar dispuesto a hacer concesiones territoriales, Estados Unidos ha bombardeado campamentos de ISIS y Maduro ha liberado a 99 presos políticos. Y en España, María Jesús Montero asegura en la SER que el Gobierno presentará Presupuestos.

El presidente Donald Trump ha aumentado la presión en contra de Nicolas Maduro. quien es acusado por el gobierno de Estados Unidos de ser el líder del Cártel de los Soles y de frenar el despliegue militar que desde mes de septiembre Trump ordenó para combatir a los cárteles del narcotráfico en el Mar Caribe. Esto ha aumentado la tensión en la región, por las posibles acciones que pueda tener el gobierno americano contra México. En este episodio, Mariel Ibarra, editora política en Expansión, platica con Laura Dib, Directora del programa de Venezuela en WOLA sobre cómo puede evolucionar esta ofensiva militar, las implicaciones que tiene para la región y como puede afectar a México.

El discurso navideño del Rey provoca reacciones divididas: PP y PSOE lo apoyan, mientras Podemos e independentistas lo critican. El presidente Sánchez no reacciona, y Sumar lo considera decepcionante. Internacionalmente, Zelenski dialoga con Estados Unidos sobre la paz en Ucrania y propone un plan a Moscú. En Venezuela, Maduro libera a 71 presos, entre ellos Margui Orozco, detenida por un mensaje crítico. En España, una de cada cuatro mujeres corre riesgo de pobreza o exclusión social, más de 6,5 millones. Factores como peores empleos e ingresos y mayor carga de cuidados son clave. Se proponen medidas para un sistema público de cuidados y la reforma de pensiones. Un nutricionista aborda el uso de fármacos inyectables para adelgazar, indicados para obesidad con patologías, pero frecuentemente mal empleados sin cambios de hábitos. Esto genera efectos secundarios graves, deficiencias y el riesgo de recuperar el peso. Se enfatiza la importancia de un enfoque integral, incluyendo ...

El régimen venezolano libera presos políticos para mitigar críticas, una acción habitual de Maduro, que la oposición tacha de insuficiente, exigiendo la libertad de más de 2400 encarcelados.

Communist-ruled island was already suffering from food shortages, blackouts and exodus of people, and now faces loss of cheap oil from Nicolás Maduro.

2025 was het jaar waarin één naam de wereldpolitiek domineerde: Donald Trump. Van Oekraïne tot aan Venezuela en van Gaza tot aan Brussel, overal liet hij zijn stempel achter. Zijn invloed is geen golf, maar een storm die over de hele wereld raast. Volgens oud topdiplomaat Ron Keller had Europa Trumps terugkeer niet als een verrassing mogen ervaren. Zijn afstandelijke houding tegenover Europa, de NAVO en multilaterale samenwerking was al zichtbaar tijdens zijn eerste termijn en lag vast in documenten van conservatieve denktanks. Toch bleef Europa reactief. 'We hadden met een duidelijke Europese visie naar Washington moeten gaan,' stelt Keller. Het gebrek aan samenhangend Europees buitenlands en veiligheidsbeleid maakt dat het initiatief steeds bij Trump ligt en niet bij Europa zelf. Luister ook | Europa is onmisbaar voor de VS In de oorlog in Oekraïne ziet Keller hoe Trumps isolationistische reflexen direct doorwerken. De Amerikaanse militaire en financiële steun is weggevallen, waardoor Oekraïne diplomatiek zwakker staat dan enkele jaren geleden. Trump kijkt volgens Keller niet primair naar Oekraïne, maar naar een wereldorde waarin grootmachten onderling invloedssferen verdelen. In dat beeld is Oekraïne een hinderlijke factor voor de Amerikanen. Lees ook | Zelensky onthult volledig 20-puntenplan voor vrede, gesteund door Oekraïne en VS In Gaza is het beeld dubbel. Keller erkent dat Trump een doorslaggevende rol speelde bij het bereiken van een bestand. Dat is van grote humanitaire waarde, maar vrede is volgens hem iets anders dan een wapenstilstand. De vervolgstappen; ontwapening van Hamas, een stabiel bestuur en regionale betrokkenheid, zijn onzeker. Europa staat opnieuw langs de zijlijn, terwijl het juist hier een grotere rol zou kunnen spelen in fase twee en drie van het vredesproces. Lees ook | Amerikaanse minister zegt hardop: ons doel is Maduro verwijderen Ook in Venezuela volgt Trump een bekende lijn. Trump combineert economische belangen met politieke druk op het regime van Maduro. Een militaire interventie acht Keller onwaarschijnlijk, maar de verhoogde Amerikaanse aanwezigheid in het Caribisch gebied vergroot de spanningen. Dat raakt Europa, bijvoorbeeld via vluchtelingenstromen richting het Caraïbische gedeelte van het Nederlandse Koninkrijk. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

No 3 em 1 desta quarta-feira (24), o destaque foi que o ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro (PL) se submete, nesta quarta-feira (24), a uma cirurgia para correção de uma hérnia inguinal bilateral. O procedimento tem duração estimada de até quatro horas. O governador de São Paulo, Tarcísio de Freitas (Republicanos), embarcou nesta quarta-feira (24) para os Estados Unidos. Durante a viagem, o vice-governador Felício Ramuth (PSD) assume interinamente o comando do Palácio dos Bandeirantes até o dia 11 de janeiro. Rebeca Ramagem, esposa do ex-deputado Alexandre Ramagem (PL-RJ), acionou o Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) por meio de um mandado de segurança para pedir o desbloqueio de suas contas bancárias. O caso será analisado pelo ministro André Mendonça. Novos documentos divulgados pelo governo de Donald Trump (Republicanos) trouxeram detalhes sobre o alcance da rede de exploração comandada por Jeffrey Epstein. Os arquivos citam a presença de um “grande grupo de brasileiras”, algumas com apenas 13 e 14 anos, que teriam sido levadas à mansão do bilionário sob falsas promessas de trabalho. O governo de Donald Trump também anunciou uma nova ofensiva diplomática e econômica para restringir o acesso do regime de Nicolás Maduro a recursos financeiros na Venezuela. Uma nova pesquisa Datafolha aponta que a polarização política atingiu nível recorde no país, impactando 74% dos brasileiros às vésperas do ano eleitoral. O ministro Edson Fachin, do STF, idealizou a criação de um código de conduta mais rigoroso para ministros de tribunais superiores. A iniciativa recebeu apoio imediato de integrantes da Corte e de associações de magistrados. O governo do presidente Lula (PT) oficializou o novo valor do salário mínimo, que passará a ser de R$ 1.621 a partir de 1º de janeiro de 2026.

Amerikaanse president Donald Trump sê die beste stap vir Venezuela se president Nicolás Maduro is om uit te tree. Spanning tussen die twee lande is aan die toeneem, te midde van 'n massiewe Amerikaanse vlootopbou in die Karibiese See. Trump plaas druk op Maduro, onder meer met pogings om sy olie-inkomste te verminder. Trump het verlede week 'n volledige blokkering gelas op gesanksioneerde olietenkers wat in en uit Venezuela vaar. Hy het Maduro gewaarsku om nie 'n tawwe tienie te probeer wees nie:

Over the past week, President Trump has intensified pressure on Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro by targeting the regime's economic lifeline—oil. The United States has seized two oil tankers and is in pursuit of another, following President Trump's declaration of what he called a "total and complete blockade" of vessels carrying Venezuelan crude subject to US sanctions. The move places one of Venezuela's most valuable and strategic assets squarely at the center of the conflict. The country holds an estimated 17 percent of the world's oil reserves and produces nearly one million barrels per day, nearly all of which is exported. Targeting these exports and the use of a naval blockade carries serious implications, raising questions about the potential for further escalation. How is the standoff between Washington and Caracas evolving? What diplomatic or economic off-ramps—if any—remain? And what does all of this mean for global energy markets already navigating a fragile balance of supply, sanctions, and geopolitical risk? This week, Jason Bordoff speaks with Luisa Palacios and Eddie Fishman about the Trump administration's strategy in the region. Luisa leads the research team and is a scholar at the Center on Global Energy Policy. Previously, she served as chairwoman of CITGO Petroleum Corporation, the US refining arm of Venezuela's state-owned oil company, PDVSA. Eddie is a senior research scholar at the Center on Global Energy Policy. He is the author of the bestselling book Chokepoints: American Power in the Era of Economic Warfare, which was named a finalist for the Financial Times Business Book of the Year.

Donald Trump anunció la semana pasada un “bloqueo total y completo” a todos los petroleros sancionados que se dirijan o salgan de Venezuela. Esto supone algo realmente serio que multiplica la presión sobre el régimen de Nicolás Maduro. Venezuela depende por entero de las ventas de ese petróleo en el mercado internacional. En el caso de que fallen las exportaciones las expectativas para Maduro y el chavismo serían muy negativas y comprometerían su continuidad en el poder. Trump anunció en bloqueo en una publicación de Truth Social en la que adelantaba que Venezuela está “completamente rodeada por la mayor armada jamás reunida en Sudamérica” al tiempo que amenazaba con incrementar la presencia militar hasta que el régimen devuelva el petróleo, las tierras y los activos robados a EEUU. Con esto se refería a las nacionalizaciones de empresas estadounidenses. El anuncio ha venido acompañado de la incautación de petroleros en alta mar que salían o navegaban hacia Venezuela, lo que ha provocado que muchos buques hayan dado media vuelta. Esto ha reducido de forma notable el tráfico marítimo en los puertos venezolanos. Desde hace tiempo el Gobierno chavista se sirve de una flota “fantasma” iraní y rusa para evadir las sanciones. Aunque un bloqueo total sería un acto de guerra, este es parcial ya que excluye a los buques de la compañía Chevron, que disponen de una licencia recién renovada por la Casa Blanca. El impacto es devastador para Venezuela, pero también para Cuba, el principal aliado de la Venezuela bolivariana desde hace un cuarto de siglo. Desde que Hugo Chávez llegó al poder el país recibe petróleo regalado a cambio de médicos y, sobre todo, inteligencia cubana que es muy útil para el régimen. El suministro a Cuba ha pasado de unos 100.000 barriles diarios en 2008 a unos 27.000 en estos momentos. Si se interrumpiese por completo agravaría la crisis económica cubana, la peor desde que Fidel Castro se hizo con el poder en 1959, peor incluso que el periodo especial tras la caída de la Unión Soviética. La situación en Cuba es de extrema gravedad. La economía se ha contraído un 20% en los últimos años, la inflación supera el 450%, aproximadamente el 90% de la población vive en pobreza extrema y un 70% de los cubanos no se puede permitir comer a diario. Hay apagones de hasta 18 horas seguidas, escasez de agua potable, se acumula la basura por las calles y se están propagando enfermedades infecciosas en un país cuyo sistema sanitario colapsó hace tiempo. Como consecuencia de todo lo anterior, desde 2020 casi 3 millones de cubanos (una cuarta parte de la población de la isla, muchos de ellos con titulación superior) han emigrado a EEUU, Europa y varios países de Hispanoamérica. Se está produciendo un vaciamiento demográfico no muy distinto al de los países que atraviesan una guerra. Las reservas de divisas del Gobierno están en mínimos y se reponen con dificultad ya que el turismo, una de sus principales fuentes, está gripado. Si la ofensiva contra Venezuela continúa Trump podría cobrarse dos pájaros de un tiro: en Caracas a Nicolás Maduro y en La Habana a Miguel Díaz-Canel. En ambos casos han decidido resistir sobre la espalda de su propia población. Pero eso no puede durar eternamente.

After running on a campaign centered on ending forever wars, the Trump administration has become increasingly aggressive toward Venezuela—and rumors are abuzz that the administration may soon attempt to topple the Maduro regime.Michael Brendan Dougherty, senior writer at National Review, joins Oren to discuss why Venezuela has reemerged as a focal point in Washington and what that says about the state of American foreign policy. They examine how this pressure campaign, ostensibly over fentanyl, looks increasingly like an attempt at regime change and the risks of escalation without public buy-in or strategic clarity. They also broaden the conversation to consider how this same lack of focus appears in debates over trade, affordability, and energy, and undermines the administration's ability to explain its policies to the public.Further reading: "The Next Foreign Misadventure" by Michael Brendan Dougherty

The media wants to make the conflict with Nicolas Maduro all about ideology and narcotics. Gregg Roman of Middle East Forum explains it goes much deeper. Hezbollah and the Iranian regime operate oil, narcotics, and terrorism rings that Maduro relies on to remain in power. We get into the real national security issues of having an Iranian puppet in the Western hemisphere.

AP correspondent Ben Thomas reports President Trump has delivered a new warning to Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.

Empire, Stability, and the Smokescreen of MoralityBy Renaldo C. McKenzieLet us be honest—brutally honest, the way history demands and empire resents.What is unfolding in Venezuela, and across the wider Caribbean basin, has little to do with democracy, human rights, or some sudden moral awakening in Washington. It has everything to do with power—raw, unapologetic, strategic power—and the anxiety that sets in when that power feels challenged.The United States does not intervene because a government is despotic. If that were the case, half the world's strongmen would be facing sanctions before breakfast. The United States intervenes when dominance is threatened—when a small country dares to rearrange its economic loyalties, when it flirts with alternatives, when it whispers to Beijing or Moscow instead of kneeling to Washington.This is not conjecture. This is pattern. Take Venezuela. The hostility toward the Maduro government is not rooted in humanitarian outrage. It is rooted in the fact that Venezuela has chosen to deepen relations with China and Russia—to do business outside the American orbit. That is the unforgivable sin. Everything else—drugs, dictatorship, democracy—is stage dressing.The same script plays across the Caribbean. Jamaica, like many of its neighbors, has welcomed Chinese investment: ports modernized, infrastructure built, capital flowing where Western lenders once stalled. Suddenly, “stability” becomes a concern. Suddenly, sovereignty is suspect. Funny how that works.This is not about policing the world's conscience. It is about preserving a hierarchy. History offers receipts. In Guyana, the United States once supported a government that was neither democratic nor just—one that violently suppressed dissent and oversaw the assassination of revolutionary scholar Walter Rodney. That regime, led by Forbes Burnham, was later found culpable by a commission of inquiry. Yet at the time, it enjoyed American backing. Why? Because it played ball. It served U.S. interests. Morality, apparently, is negotiable.Contrast that with today. Guyana now hosts massive U.S. oil interests, where American corporations extract vast wealth while the Guyanese people receive a fraction. That arrangement is deemed acceptable—commendable, even. But let Guyana decide tomorrow to nationalize its resources, to partner elsewhere, or to rely on itself, and watch how quickly the tone changes. Hypothetical? Hardly. We have seen this movie before.Consider Cuba—decades under embargo, not because it threatens the world, but because it refuses submission. Consider Ukraine, punished by war for seeking stability outside one imperial sphere and into another. When small nations move independently, the ground shakes.The language of “communism” is the oldest smokescreen in the book. It is wheeled out whenever convenient, retired when inconvenient. The real crime is not ideology—it is disobedience.This is the central argument of my forthcoming book, Neoliberal Globalization Reconsidered: Unfair Competition and the Death of Nations. Nations do not collapse simply because of internal failure; they are often pushed—cornered by systems designed to ensure that wealth flows upward and outward, never inward, never locally, never freely.And here lies the uncomfortable truth: empire does not require virtue. It requires compliance.Yes, America wants to remain competitive. That desire is not irrational. But competitiveness built on coercion, embargoes, and destabilization is not leadership—it is fear masquerading as strength. And fear, history tells us, is a dangerous policy advisor.The Caribbean must tread carefully. Sovereignty is costly. Independence comes with consequences. But the alternative—permanent subordination dressed up as partnership—is far more expensive in the long run.Renaldo is the Author of Neoliberalism, 2021) and Neoliberal Globalization Reconsidered, Unfair Competition and the Death of Nations", contributions by Martin Oppenheimer

On today's podcast: 1) President Trump warned Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro not to challenge the US, and vowed to keep oil seized from a supertanker but declined to say if he’s seeking to oust the Venezuelan leader. “He can do whatever he wants to do, whatever he wants to do, if he wants to do something, if he plays tough, it’ll be the last time he’s ever able to play tough,” Trump told reporters at a press conference at his Mar-a-Lago estate on Monday evening. Asked if he would try to push Maduro out, he responded, “That’s up to him.” Trump spoke after the US stepped up its blockade of tankers going to and from Venezuela over the weekend, boarding a non-sanctioned ship owned by a Hong Kong-based entity on Saturday and pursuing a third oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela. Another very large crude carrier, the Skipper, was intercepted on Dec. 10. 2) During Monday's press conference, Trump also said he believed “people are very angry that pictures are being released” that connect them to notorious sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, days after the Justice Department released a new tranche of files tied to the late financier. Trump said he hated to see former President Bill Clinton, who appeared frequently in the release, being tarnished by the association, describing the situation as “terrible.” The Epstein files, and the fight over their disclosure, have sparked infighting among Trump’s supporters, adding to the political headwinds that the president is facing heading into next year’s midterm elections. 3) President Trump reiterated his desire for US control over Greenland on Monday, after announcing plans to appoint Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry as a special envoy to the island. The president said Landry was “a deal-maker-type guy” who could help execute his vision for taking control of the territory. The president also said his desire was not rooted in Greenland’s energy or mineral reserves — saying the US had plenty of resources — but that he did not believe Denmark had devoted enough spending to protect the island.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The U.S. Coast Guard seizes a second oil tanker and is in “active pursuit” of a third vessel as the Trump Administration ramps up its pressure campaign against the Maduro regime in Venezuela. Frustration is growing over the Justice Department's handling of the release of the Epstein files. A Democratic and a Republican political operative find common ground over why North Carolina should be the first state in the presidential primary calendar. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The United States continues to squeeze and isolate the Venezuelan regime led by Nicolas Maduro with another oil tanker being seized, steady military action against narco-terrorist drug boats, and the recent daring extraction of opposition leader Maria Corina Machado. Both Russia and China tight relationship with Venezuela dates back to the reign of Hugo Chavez, but now Turkish relations with Venezuela have become a major source of support for the Maduro regime. Turkey being a NATO member while supporting Maduro seems raise some eyebrows but why are they so committed to any sort of investment into Venezuela. FOX's Eben Brown speaks with Dr. Sinan Ciddi, senior fellow at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies and Director of the Turkey program, who says the tightening relations between Turkey and Venezuela needs to monitored more closely, and he breaks down what the two countries are getting from each other.

Over-regulation is not the solution to what ails the American banking system. Rigorous, responsible supervision is. The initial report on the 2023 debacle by former Vice Chairman for Supervision, Michael Barr, was an exercise in obfuscation and sophistry. The American people deserve supervisors who are not asleep at the wheel, and the incoming Chairman of the Federal Reserve should undertake a thorough investigation of the systemic and oversight failures that led to that disaster.

FBI was warned that Jeffrey Epstein was into child porn — but ignored it for 10 years, docs show   A former employee of late sex predator Jeffrey Epstein alerted the FBI that he was interested in “child pornography” and that he threatened to “burn her house down” decades before Epstein became an international fixation — but feds apparently did nothing. Source: nypost.com   If there was every anything about Trump, it would have been released before he reached the bottom of the escalator in 2015, the Comey FBI would have leaked it, and the Dems would have brought it up at some point while Biden was in office. But none of that happened. Why? Because Epstein leads to the Dems, and people like myself have been trying to warn the world about it for 10+ years.  https://twitter.com/WarClandestine/status/2002408563193368834?s=20  and it worked brilliantly. Could you imagine if in Trump's first term he released all this stuff about Epstein? The public would not have believed it, and the Dems/MSM would have claimed it was all politically motivated and fabricated by Trump. The only way this Epstein disclosure was going to work, was to get the public to beg for it.

What is Nathan Wolfe known for? Searching for bat coronaviruses in Ukraine via USAID Project PREDICT, via his biolab company, Metabiota, which was funded via Rosemont Seneca, which is partially owned by Hunter Biden. Russia accused Wolfe and his biolab company of creating genome-specific biological weapons in Ukraine. This situation has been addressed by RFK Jr. and Tulsi multiple times, and has been a major topic at the UN for over 3 years now. So Epstein had an interest in eugenics and he had financial/social connections to virologists who were making genome-specific biological weapons via USAID grants in Ukraine. Nathan Wolfe even directly thanked Epstein in his 2011 book “The Viral Storm: The Dawn of the New Pandemic Age” where Wolfe predicted the COVID pandemic 8 years before it happened… So what am I getting at? I think Epstein had plans to engage in ethnic cleansing/population control/genocide via biological weapon, and I think he had something to do with Covid. Epstein is at the epicenter of the Deep State empire. He was essentially a real life James Bond villain. The timing could not be worse. He and Hillary are in the middle of trying to fight subpoenas to testify in person to the House Oversight Committee on the Epstein matter and what they might know. They want to submit sworn statements.

This creates a rather bizarre official hypocrisy within the Zelenskyy regime.  The official position of Zelenskyy is that Eastern Ukraine will never be accepted as a part of the Russian federation. Zelenskyy has recently noted, with EU leadership support, that his government will never recognize Eastern Ukraine as part of the Russian federation.  However, this same region, approximately 20% of Ukraine, will not be permitted to participate in his controlled election. Essentially, any Ukraine resident who does not support Zelenskyy will not be permitted to vote in any election, if any election is ever permitted.  Additionally, Zelenskyy notes that “there is the practice of voting abroad,” however, any region not controlled by Zelenskyy cannot submit votes.

Kennedy and now additionally honors President Donald J. Trump, who has brought America back and saved the Trump-Kennedy Center. The Board's action is permissible under the statute and no legislation is necessary. The Board’s action does nothing to change the statutory title. Instead, the Board has–in line with longstanding Executive Branch practice–designated a new name. For example, The Office of the Federal Chief Information Officer, within the Office of Management & Budget, is designated by statute as the “Office of Electronic Government.” But it's long gone by the name “Office of the Federal Chief Information Officer” in official, public, and internal communications. Similarly, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is designated by statute as the “Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection.” But since the beginning, the agency has long gone by the name Consumer Financial Protection Bureau or CFPB in all official communications, correspondence with the Hill, titles and signage on its buildings. The “United States Institute of Peace” was established by statute but was renamed by the Department of State as the “Donald J. Trump United States Institute of Peace.” The Department of War was established as the “Department of Defense” by statute in 1947. Earlier this year, President Trump authorized the use of the name “Department of War” and the name is now etched on the Pentagon's building and in official correspondence and public communications. It is entirely fitting for the Board of Trustees to vote to add President Trump to the title so that this Center is now named The Donald J. Trump And The John F. Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts. President Trump has provided superb leadership at every level to save the Kennedy Center from financial ruin and wokeness, and to bring our national treasure to new heights!
