https://www.youtube.com/watch/PjJeHs11I20 Venezuela after Maduro and Trump unleashed | Ian Explains
Ian Bremmer explains why the US capture of Nicolás Maduro marks a turning point for American power, and what the return of “the law of the jungle” means for global stability.

Ian breaks down the stunning US operation that captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and what it signals about America’s role in the world. The raid was swift, precise, and uniquely American in its scope, removing a widely reviled dictator without deploying ground troops or suffering US casualties. For President Trump, it was a clear geopolitical win, proof that raw power can still deliver fast results.

But Bremmer argues the real story begins after the mission ends. With Maduro gone, the United States now faces unanswered questions about how a country of 30 million people is supposed to function under US pressure, whether Venezuela’s military will accept an interim government, and how quickly instability could spiral into something far worse. The risks, he warns, echo past interventions where military success outpaced political planning.

Zooming out, Bremmer frames the operation as part of a broader shift in US foreign policy. Trump’s message is simple: America has the biggest stick, and it intends to use it. That message is being heard not just in Caracas, but across Latin America and even in Europe. The danger, Bremmer explains, is that once rules are abandoned, power becomes unpredictable. What’s used against adversaries today can be turned inward tomorrow, accelerating the breakdown of a global order the US itself helped build.

Lyrics ♫

I’ve never sailed on a sea
I would not challenge a giant
I could not take on the church
Time will crawl
Until the 21st century lose
I know a government man
He was as blind as the moon
He saw the sun in the night
He took a top-gun pilot and he
He made him fly through a hole
Until he grew real old
And he never came down
He just flew till he burst

Time will crawl
Until our mouths run dry
Time will crawl
Until our feet grow small
Time will crawl
Until our tails fall off
Time will crawl
Until the 21st century lose

I saw a black black stream
Full of white eyed fish
And a drowning man
With no eyes at all
I felt a warm warm breeze
That melted metal and steel
I got a bad migraine
That lasted three long years
And the pills that I took
Made my fingers disappear

You were a talented child
You came to live in our town
We never bothered to scream
When your mask came off
We only smelt the gas
As we lay down to sleep

For the crazy child
We’ll give every life
For the crackpot notion

★★★★★★

About David Bowie:

David Bowie shattered the boundaries of possibility, reinventing himself endlessly and reshaping the very concept of what music and identity could be.

His timeless works include Space Oddity, Hunky Dory, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders from Mars, Aladdin Sane, Diamond Dogs, Young Americans, Station to Station, Heroes, Let’s Dance, Heathen, The Next Day and many more.

Blackstar, Bowie’s 28th and final studio album, was released on his 69th birthday, January 8, 2016. David Bowie died on January 10, 2016, two days after the release of Blackstar. 

His work endures as a living testament to the power of reinvention, echoing through music, art, fashion, film, theatre, and every corner of culture he touched.

Under growing pressure to justify valuations and unconstrained by guardrails, a number of leading AI companies will adopt extractive business models that threaten social and political stability—like social media, but worse. Social media captured attention; AI programs behavior, shapes thoughts, and mediates reality. The near-term threat is not superhuman machines but the decline of thinking, feeling, and social humans.

As President Trump ruminates on a long-term role for the U.S. in Venezuela, The Atlantic’s David Frum argues that Trump’s critics are falling into an “obvious trap.” In a new essay, Frum warns that opponents of the administration are bogged down in the legalities of the military operation. He joins Michele Martin to explain why he believes their message is failing to break through.
