Trump Addresses The Nation w/ Venezuela Blockade, Bongino Exits FBI, Vanity Fair Story | AOA Podcast

On this episode: President Trump addresses the nation and announces a sweeping blockade of all sanctioned oil tankers entering and leaving Venezuela, escalating tensions and sending shockwaves through global markets. We break down what the blockade actually means, how it could be enforced, and why the administration moved thousands of troops and nearly a dozen warships — including an aircraft carrier — into the region. We analyze Venezuela’s furious response, the legal questions surrounding blockades as acts of war, the impact on oil prices, and what experts say a long-term blockade could trigger for both migration and inflation.Then we turn to Dan Bongino, who announced he is stepping down as FBI Deputy Director in January. We cover his statement, Trump’s reaction, the internal tensions surrounding the Epstein memo, Bongino’s clashes with Attorney General Pam Bondi, his obsession with the January 6 pipe bomb case, and the speculation that he may return to broadcasting. We also look at how his departure fits into the broader turnover inside the administration.Finally, we dive into the explosive Vanity Fair / Susie Wiles story. The reporter, Chris Whipple, doubled down and revealed that every interview — including candid remarks about Trump — was recorded, even as Wiles called the article a “disingenuously framed hit piece” that stripped out context. We lay out what Wiles actually said, how the administration pushed back, and why this story is causing such a political and media firestorm.#Venezuela #DanBongino #SusieWilesGet more AoA and become a member to get exclusive access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOfx0OFE-uMTmJXGPpP7elQ/joinGet Erin C’s book here: https://amzn.to/3ITDoO7Get Merch here - https://bit.ly/AnthonyMerchSubscribe to the Anthony On Air Podcast here:Facebook - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirFBYouTube - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirYTApple Podcast - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirAppleSpotify - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirSpotTwitter - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirTwitterInstagram - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirInstaTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@anthonyonairpodDiscord - https://discord.gg/78V469aV22
