Minnesota & Venezuela - Majority 54

What this episode covers

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down the fallout from Trump’s Venezuela operation as the president announces an oil deal following the capture of Nicolás Maduro, raising questions about coercion, profiteering, and global backlash from China and regional allies. They analyze Trump’s claims about seizing billions in Venezuelan oil, the response from interim leader Delcy Rodríguez, and mounting fears of authoritarian crackdowns as armed militias flood Caracas under a sweeping emergency decree. Kander and Gupta also dive into Trump’s revived push to acquire Greenland, unpacking Marco Rubio’s closed-door comments, NATO alarm, and the administration’s refusal to rule out military force. Plus, they discuss new scrutiny over Epstein-related DOJ delays, fresh data showing young men souring on Trump, escalating GOP infighting, and renewed attempts to rewrite the history of January 6.
