What happens when a business deal looks solid on paper—but falls apart in real life? Episode page with video, links, and more My guest for Episode #335 of the My Favorite Mistake podcast is Kevin Hipes, an entrepreneur, author, and former city commissioner who's been called the “New York Forrest Gump” because of the many lives he's lived. Kevin shares the story of one of his biggest—and most unforgettable—business mistakes: buying an oil tanker in the Caribbean. What began as a seemingly foolproof investment with a strong pro forma turned into a cascade of unexpected challenges, including regulatory changes, ethical dilemmas, geopolitical risk, and international drama. In this episode, we talk about: Why smart people still make big business mistakes How external forces can derail even the best plans Learning from failure instead of hiding from it Resilience after financial and emotional setbacks The importance of mental health awareness for leaders and entrepreneurs Kevin's story is funny, sobering, and deeply human—and a powerful reminder that mistakes don't define us unless we refuse to learn from them.

The Risks of Seizing Russia's Shadow Fleet at Sea. Guest: ANATOL LIEVEN, Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. The U.S. seizure of Russian-owned "shadow fleet" tankers raises the risk of a direct military clash if European nations follow suit. Russia views a maritime blockade as an act of war. Hardliners in the Kremlin may seek to escalate to terrify the West into withdrawing support from Ukraine1905 AMIRAL KORNILOV

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: As Iran's regime tightens its information blackout, rare eyewitness accounts are beginning to slip through, offering a disturbing look at how Tehran is carrying out its crackdown— from targeted maiming to raids on hospitals and clinics, revealing tactics that go far beyond disputed body counts. The war on the high seas widens, with new reporting that the United States is seeking court warrants to seize dozens of additional Venezuela-linked oil tankers, signaling a major escalation in maritime pressure. The United States freezes all visa processing for seventy-five countries, including Iran, Russia, and Somalia, in a sweeping move that signals a tougher stance on immigration and national security. And in today's Back of the Brief, a new development in the Havana Syndrome mystery, as the U.S. government quietly acquires a device believed to be linked to the unexplained injuries reported by American officials.

President Donald Trump on Thursday threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act and deploy troops to quell protests against ICE agents in Minneapolis. This comes as tensions escalate in the city following a violent nighttime confrontation between an ICE agent and an illegal immigrant in the city. The Department of Homeland Security said the immigrant ambushed the agent, who shot the attacker in the leg in self-defense.President Trump and Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado will meet at the White House on Thursday. Just hours before the meeting, U.S. Southern Command confirmed in a post on X that U.S. armed forces had seized another Venezuela-linked oil tanker in the Caribbean.

AP's Lisa Dwyer reports that the US has seized another ship in the Caribbean.

In this explosive episode of The Alan Sanders Show (Ep. 009), we expose how Minnesota Democratic leaders like Gov. Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey are accused of fueling violence and chaos amid escalating anti-ICE protests following fatal shootings involving federal agents, including the death of Renee Good and a recent wounding in north Minneapolis. Rhetoric demonizing ICE as "Gestapo" and calls to "get out" have sparked clashes, assaults on officers and national outrage, with Trump threatening the Insurrection Act. We also dive into the landmark SCOTUS arguments on transgender athletes in women's sports, where the conservative majority appears poised to uphold state bans in Idaho and West Virginia to protect fairness and safety for female competitors. Finally, two China-flagged supertankers make a dramatic U-turn from Venezuela oil pickups amid intensified U.S. sanctions and embargo pressures.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: The United Kingdom prepares to join the United States in seizing Russian shadow fleet oil tankers at sea, as Moscow's reflagging gambit raises the risk of direct confrontation between Western forces and Russia. Russian-made air defense systems in Venezuela failed to stop U.S. aircraft during the operation to capture Nicolás Maduro, raising fresh questions about their real-world effectiveness. President Trump issues a stark warning to Cuba following Maduro's ouster, urging Havana to make a deal with Washington before events in the region overtake it. **And in today's Back of the Brief—**a viral eyewitness account out of Venezuela raises questions about a mysterious weapon reportedly used during the U.S. raid to capture Nicolás Maduro.

On the docket this week are: Prime Minister Says She Can Work With Icelandic Populist PartyIn an interview with Heimildin this weekend, PM Kristrún Frostadóttir discussed many issues, but the attention grabbing issue was her statement that she could work with Miðflokkurinn (Center Party) on immigration issues.Greenland Discussion ContinuesIceland's Prime Minister, US. President and almost everybody else has done little but talk about Greenland during the past week. We try to catch up on that.Icelanders Are The Fattest Of The NordicsIn a survey conducted for 2024 and released last December, it turns out that Icelanders are the most overweight of all the Nordics. And out of the 80.000 Icelanders categorized as obese with a BMI over 30, more than 20.000, or 25% are taking GLP-1 drugs, such as Ozempic and Wegovy. We weigh in on the discussion.The US sizes a Tanker In Iceland's Exclusive Economic ZoneLast Wednesday, the US Navy apprehended an oil tanker, presumably on its way to Russia, within Iceland's Exlusive Economic Zone, but not within its territorial waters. Icelanders Won't Be Required To Undergo Medical Exam To Renew Drivers License Until They Turn 75A new law has been proposed by the People's Party to move a required medical exam for renewing Icelandic driver licenses from 70 years old to 75 years old. The Icelandic Word Of The Year Is Paid Parking (i.

It's been an exciting start to the year. That somewhat of an understatement comes from Lloyd's List senior reporter Greg Miller, who in this week's episode of the Lloyd's List Podcast tries to make sense of the crazy start to 2026 and how geopolitical events might affect tanker markets. Trump's intervention in Venezuela has changed the game completely, but it follows historically high crude tanker rates in 2025, reaching the six-figure mark at some points, before trending downwards towards the end of the year. Greg talks us through the market outlook for both crude and product tankers in the wake of such instability and gives you a big picture of the year ahead for one of shipping's most exciting sectors.

Listen to the article with analysis from the author:  US forces boarded and took control of an oil tanker in the Caribbean on Friday. The Olina is the fifth ship seized by the US in recent weeks. “In a pre-dawn action, Marines and Sailors from Joint Task Force Southern Spear, in support of the Department of Homeland Security, launched from the USS Gerald R. Ford and apprehended Motor/Tanker Olina in the Caribbean Sea without incident,” a statement from US Southern Command explained. SOUTHCOM claimed the raid was in defense of “our homeland by ending illicit activity and restoring security in the Western Hemisphere.” An oil industry source told The Guardian that the Olina left Venezuela last week after President Nicolas Maduro was kidnapped by US forces. The tanker later turned around and was sailing back to Venezuela when it was seized by US forces. President Donald Trump claimed that the Olina was seized in coordination with the interim government in Venezuela, led by Vice President Delcy Rodríguez. “Today, the United States of America, in coordination with the Interim Authorities of Venezuela, seized an oil tanker which departed Venezuela without our approval,” the President wrote on Truth Social. “This tanker is now on its way back to Venezuela, and the oil will be sold through the GREAT Energy Deal, which we have created for such sales.” Last week, the US seized a Russian-flagged tanker in the northern Atlantic. Russia's Foreign Ministry also issued a statement, calling for the US to treat any Russian nationals on the crew “humanely” and for them to be allowed to return home as quickly as possible. A Russian warship and submarine were reportedly in the vicinity of the Marinera during the seizure, but there was no confrontation between US and Russian forces. First Published at Antiwar.com

COLD WAR TACTICS: THE SEIZURE OF A RUSSIAN TANKER Colleague Anatol Lieven, Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft. Lieven discusses the US Navy's detention of a Russian-flagged ship in the North Atlantic, viewing it as a dangerous escalation akin to piracy.

Today's Headlines: Officials identified Renee Nicole Good — a U.S. citizen — as the woman shot and killed by an ICE officer in Minneapolis after he fired three rounds into her car at close range. Video shows Good waving agents around her stopped vehicle before they approached on foot. Despite the footage, Trump and DHS Secretary Kristi Noem labeled her a “domestic terrorist,” a claim Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey called “bullshit” while telling ICE to leave the city. Meanwhile, the administration says the U.S. will take over selling Venezuela's blockaded oil “indefinitely,” with proceeds routed through offshore accounts overseen by Trump — though Energy Secretary Chris Wright insists the money will eventually benefit Venezuelans. Trump also bragged that the U.S. seized a massive Russian-flagged oil tanker and, when asked what happens to the oil, replied: “We keep it, I guess.” On Greenland, leaders in Greenland and Denmark are rejecting any U.S. move to acquire the territory and have requested emergency NATO talks — warning it could destabilize the alliance. European partners are now prepping contingency defense plans of their own. In other news, Trump floated banning large investors from buying single-family homes (details TBD… allegedly coming “in two weeks”), while also publicly pressuring defense contractors to cap executive pay and ramp up production — singling out Raytheon as not sufficiently obedient. And in Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis is calling a special session to gerrymander.  Resources/Articles mentioned in this episode: Axios: Woman killed by ICE in Minneapolis identified as Renee Nicole Good WSJ: U.S. to Control Venezuelan Oil Sales Indefinitely AP News: Trump says US has seized an oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela The Guardian: Marco Rubio says he will meet Danish officials to discuss Greenland next week Kyivpost: Germany Could Join Multinational Force From Outside Ukraine, Merz Says CNBC: Trump says U.S. to ban large investors from buying homes Axios: Trump threatens to nix Raytheon's defense contracts AP News: Gov.

Silicon Bites Ep282 | 2026-01-07 | The invasion of Venezuela was widely expected and predicted. It was no less shocking for all that, but perhaps what we did not foresee, is that it would embroil the Russian shadow fleet in a confrontation with US forces in its self-declared hemisphere of sovereign influence. A rusting shadow fleet tanker in the North Atlantic — being shadowed by a Russian submarine, was boarded by US forces anyway. In the past 24 hours, the United States seized the oil tanker now known as Marinera, formerly Bella-1, after what Reuters describes as a two-week pursuit across the Atlantic — part of Washington's pressure campaign to choke off sanctions-evasion oil flows linked to Venezuela.

The United States says it has seized two tankers accused of violating sanctions against Venezuela. One of them, a Russian ship, was boarded in the North Atlantic between Iceland and Britain. The US coastguard had been pursuing the ship for weeks since intercepting it off the Venezuelan coast. During the chase, the vessel underwent a change of name and adopted a Russian flag. Russian support including a submarine was on its way before the tanker was seized. The other tanker, sailing under the flag of Cameroon, was seized in the Caribbean. Also: the White House says that President Trump has been discussing options, including military force, to acquire Greenland, which it says is vital to US security.

The United States military has seized two tankers linked to Venezuelan oil. This comes as Venezuela's state-run oil company is confirming – for the first time – that it is negotiating the sale of crude oil to the United States after the US Energy Secretary said that Washington would control Venezuelan oil sales 'indefinitely'.

Today's Headlines: Looks like there's no easing into this new year. Trump dramatically escalated his Venezuela fixation this weekend, launching major strikes in Caracas and having Nicolás Maduro pulled from his home and flown to federal detention in Brooklyn. Maduro was re-indicted on familiar narcotrafficking charges, while Trump bragged that the U.S. is effectively “running Venezuela now” alongside American oil companies. But instead of installing Trump's preferred opposition figure, Venezuela's Supreme Court tapped Maduro's vice president Delcy Rodríguez as interim leader. Before all that, the U.S. had spent weeks chasing a Venezuela-bound oil tanker — until Russia swooped in on New Year's Eve, added it to its registry, and painted a Russian flag on the side to shield it from seizure. Trump also hosted President Zelensky at Mar-a-Lago with Stephen Miller, Jared Kushner, and Pete Hegseth, claiming “progress” while simultaneously echoing outrage on Putin's behalf after a friendly call with him. Abroad, Switzerland's army chief warned the country couldn't withstand a major attack, protests in Iran turned deadly as Trump threatened to “intervene,” and Trump ordered Christmas Day strikes on ISIS militants in Nigeria. On the home front, Trump froze all childcare payments nationwide after citing a Minnesota welfare fraud case involving a small group of Somali immigrants — while simultaneously moving to garnish wages from millions of student loan borrowers in default starting in January. One notable check on his power: the Supreme Court ruled 6–3 against his National Guard deployments to several U.S. cities. Meanwhile, the newly released Jack Smith testimony says he had evidence Trump committed multiple felonies that could rise to treason before his cases were shut down — and the massive Epstein document dump is already under scrutiny for delays, missing records, and questionable redactions, including internal DOJ emails noting Trump flew on Epstein's plane more than previously known.
