Thought we’d forgotten about Venezuela here on The Remnant? Think again! As prone as Jonah Goldberg is to getting distracted by the finer things of life—Old English dialects, zombie movies, etc.—he’s kept a weather eye fixed southward on our Bolivarian neighbor. Jonah is joined today by James Story, the former ambassador to Venezuela, to take us deep into the recent history of U.S.-Venezuelan relations, Nicolás Maduro, Delcy Rodríguez, a possible democratic transition, the oil deal, the Venezuelan diaspora, Marco Rubio, the boat strikes, the professional foreign service post-DOGE, and Pax Americana.
Show Notes:
—The Dispatch: “The U.S. Boat Strikes, One Year Later”
—MS Now: “The U.S. drone strike in Venezuela marks a dangerous new era”
—Jonah’s LA Times column on the oil deal
—Anthony Scaramucci Remnant
