August 17, 2017

Download MP3

On today’s show attorney and activist Eva Golinger (@evagolinger) joins us to discuss Venezuela.

Getting deeper into Venezuelan politics than the simplistic narratives surrounding “Chavismo,” and how they bear on Venezuela’s current political turmoil. Hugo Chavez’s constitutional leadership and Venezuela’s long history as a US client state. The 2002 Venezuelan coup. Maduro, the opposition, and street protests.

On the fun half – the religious left and political clergy, more on Trump as a confederate, Trump on the most racist movie ever, and your calls and IMs.
