They told you it was about narco-terrorism. They told you it was about justice. They lied. The capture of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro isn't just a win for the DEA—it is a geopolitical earthquake involving oil, gold, silver, the war on terror, and a battle for global supremacy. In this explosive episode of Keeping It Real, Jillian Michaels sits down with Ex-CIA Covert Ops Officer Mike Baker (host of The President's Daily Breif) and Constitutional Attorney Josh Hammer to reveal what the mainstream media and partisan pundits aren't telling you. We strip away the headlines to expose the truth about what's really going on, why, and what is likely to happen next:

Steve is joined by Dr. Josh McConkey (Ret.), USAF Colonel, emergency physician, military commander, and award-winning author, for a strategic breakdown of the capture of Nicolás Maduro. Dr. McConkey explains the surgical precision of the mission and explores the national security stakes, including what it means now that the United States says it will “run” Venezuela during the transition to stability and governance.
In Episode 025 of DEFCON ZERQ, Alpha Warrior and Josh Reid open with discussion around internal conflict within the MAGA movement, addressing online pressure campaigns, attempts to silence dissent, and debates over loyalty versus accountability. The conversation emphasizes the role of public opinion, free speech, and citizen pressure as essential elements of American political power. The episode then moves into detailed discussion of Venezuela, focusing on the military operation that resulted in Nicolás Maduro's capture, the absence of U.S. casualties, and what the operation signals about the current posture of the Trump administration. Alpha and Josh expand the discussion to unrestricted warfare, fifth-generation warfare, and historical examples of power projection, arguing that modern conflict extends far beyond traditional battlefields. Additional segments cover China's global strategy, energy and supply chain leverage, the multipolar world framework, information warfare, and recent statements from U.S. leadership. The episode concludes with audience interaction, geopolitical analysis, and reflections on the responsibilities of citizens during periods of rapid political and military change.

Lies And Corruption Tarnish Trump's Venezuela Operation by Ron Paul Liberty Report
Guest: Gregory Copley. Following the precise U.S. tactical operation to abduct Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro, the strategic focus has shifted to securing the hemisphere and managing oil access, though major companies currently prefer the easier reserves off Guyana over Venezuela's tapped-out infrastructure. Copley notes that while the raid was surgically successful, the lack of follow-up planning risks a messy, protracted conflict driven by Russian and Chineseinfluence, potentially damaging U.S. prestige if the new government does not quickly align with Washington.1925 GUYANA
2026: A HOLLOW SUPERPOWER Colleagues Gordon Chang and Charles Burton. Chang and Burton speculate that the US operation in Venezuela exposes China's inability to protect its allies, making Beijing appear "hollow." Chang argues this weakens China's threat against Taiwan, while Burton suggests that with China's economy failing and its allies collapsing, the regime faces internal instability and a loss of global prestige.

President Trump claims Venezuela's oil industry will make more money with the U.S. behind it. Venezuela is estimated to have 303 billion barrels of crude oil still in the ground, which is about 20% of the world's reserves. I joined CBS Mornings to explain how it could impact U.S. prices.

The Venezuela operation has been marketed as a flawless military achievement, and from a purely tactical standpoint, that assessment may be fair. The operators involved are unquestionably elite, and the United States retains unmatched capacity for precision action. The problem is not military competence but credibility. This administration has a long record of half-truths, selective framing, and narrative manipulation, which makes any official explanation suspect by default. The timing of the operation—coinciding with renewed pressure and exposure surrounding the Epstein scandal—raises unavoidable questions about motive. History shows that foreign spectacle is often deployed when domestic scandals threaten powerful interests, and the Epstein network represents exactly that kind of threat. In that context, skepticism is not conspiratorial; it is rational.The justification for targeting Venezuela collapses further when examined through the lens of drug enforcement. Venezuela is not a primary producer of fentanyl and plays only a secondary role as a transit point in broader cocaine trafficking networks. The real drivers of the opioid crisis are Mexican cartels like CJNG and the Chapitos, while cocaine production overwhelmingly originates in Colombia. Selectively framing Venezuela as the central villain exposes the operation as politically convenient rather than strategically honest. Meanwhile, the core causes of America's drug crisis—addiction, mental health, economic despair, and lack of treatment infrastructure—remain chronically underfunded and ignored. The result is a flashy distraction that creates headlines without solving problems, buying time for elites while accountability is delayed once again. In short, the operation may look impressive, but its premise does not hold up under scrutiny—and that dog does not hunt.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

In this episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down the stunning takedown and arrest of Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro and why it may signal a major shift in U.S. power in the Western Hemisphere. Was this a smarter model than the failed regime-change disasters of Iraq, Afghanistan, and Libya, or the beginning of a dangerous new era of presidential authority? Professor Giordano examines what happens next as President Trump says the U.S. will run Venezuela until a safe, competent transition is possible, the strategic stakes tied to oil and hemispheric control, and the constitutional and international-law arguments now colliding in real time. He also exposes the domestic political hysteria as Venezuelans celebrate while America's activist left rushes to defend Maduro, revealing how Trump Derangement Syndrome continues to warp reality.

On January 3rd, 2026, the U.S. military performed the most high-stakes extraction in modern history. Operation Absolute Resolve didn't just remove a dictator; it reset the geopolitical map of the Western Hemisphere. In this episode, host Kevin Muñoz explores the dual realities of the Venezuelan strike. On one side, a "surgical" removal of a narco-terrorist leader to face justice in New York. On the other, a nation in crisis, a defiant Vice President in Delcy Rodríguez, and a looming corporate battle over the world's largest oil reserves. We dive into: The Tactics: How 150 aircraft blinded a nation in 30 minutes. The History: Why this feels like Panama 1989 and Guatemala 1954 all over again.

We're kicking off Season 18 of First Case with a topic that impacts every single case we run, but doesn't always get the spotlight it deserves: supply chain. In this season premiere, we're joined by Gary Skinner of Discover S3 Consulting to talk about what really happens behind the scenes to make surgery possible. From onboarding new surgeons and managing backorders to building trust, improving communication, managing expectations, and keeping the mission focused on the patient, this conversation makes one thing clear: when supply chain and the OR aren't aligned, everyone feels it. If you've ever scrambled for missing supplies, dealt with last-minute surprises, or wondered how these gaps could be avoided, this episode is for you. #operatingroom #supplychain #surgery #ornurse #nurse #scrubtech

Episode 541: Operation Maximum Resolve - Regime Tailoring?Today, Les, Morgan, Jess, and Matthew discuss the U.S. operation in Venezuela over the weekend that extracted President Nicolás Maduro and his wife and brought them to New York to face drug trafficking charges. While the Trump administration says no U.S. troops are currently on the ground and denies plans to run Venezuela's day-to-day affairs, the operation follows months of apparent intelligence and military preparation and coincides with a significant U.S. naval presence offshore. Former Vice President Delcy Rodríguez has been sworn in as interim president, setting the stage for a highly uncertain next phase inside the country.Is this regime change—or a more limited leadership removal designed to avoid the mistakes of past U.S. interventions? Does extracting a single leader offer a cheaper, more effective alternative to invasion and occupation, or does it raise serious questions about sovereignty and international law? And can the United States translate a stunning military and intelligence success into lasting deterrence, democratic opportunity, and a rollback of Russian and Chinese influence in the Western Hemisphere?@lestermunson@morganlroach@nottvjessjonesLike what we're doing here?
