Raging Moderates: Can Democrats Criticize Trump’s Invasion Without Defending Maduro?

Nicolás Maduro is no longer ruling Venezuela -- he’s behind bars in the United States. Trump calls it a law-enforcement win. Democrats say it crossed a dangerous line. Jessica Tarlov is joined by Ben Meiselas of the Meidas Touch (@MeidasTouch) to break down how Democrats can defend the Constitution without sounding like they’re defending a dictator -- and whether Trump is successfully reframing a military operation as justice. Plus: the welfare-fraud scandal that forced Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz to abandon his third-term bid, and the Silicon Valley backlash over a proposed billionaire wealth tax that’s putting Democrats on a collision course with their donors.  Follow Jessica Tarlov, @JessicaTarlov [https://x.com/JessicaTarlov].  Follow Prof G, @profgalloway [https://www.instagram.com/profgalloway/].

China Decode: The U.S. Attack on Venezuela is All About China

In this episode of China Decode, Alice Han and James Kynge break down Beijing’s response to Trump’s sudden takeover of Venezuela — a move that hits China’s energy interests, loans, and influence in Latin America, and raises the stakes far beyond oil. Then they turn to the EV race, where BYD has overtaken Tesla for the first time, signaling a potential power shift in the global auto industry. And finally, they look at China’s quieter — but surprising — rise as a luxury food superpower, from caviar to truffles, and what it says about trade, consumption, and state-backed strategy.  Learn more about your ad choices.
