Breaking news: The Trump administration ordered U.S. forces to invade Venezuela and kidnap its president, Nicolàs Maduro, who was indicted on narcotics-related charges in the United States. The operation violated international law, and the White House did not bother to consult Congress, either. It was the culmination of a months-long pressure campaign designed to oust Venezuela's autocratic leader with the aim of exploiting the country's vast oil and gas reserves, despite all the phony allegations regarding drug trafficking. In this episode, historian Alex Aviña says the attack and abduction are unprecedented, even when taking into consideration the long pattern of U.S. interventionism in Latin America.
