The Rush to War Against Venezuela with Van Jackson | The Time of Monsters with Jeet Heer
Published 7 months ago
Description
On Friday, the self-styled “Secretary of War” Pete Hegseth announced the US was sending an
aircraft carrier to bolster its attacks on Venezuelan boats (which the Trump administration
alleges, without evidence, are trafficking drugs). I spoke to international relations scholar Van
Jackson (whose work can be found here) about the motives for this new war as well as the
muted opposition to it from Democrats.
