56 minutes

In this episode of The PDB Situation Report:

After two years of war, Israel and Hamas have agreed to the first phase of a ceasefire. But key details remain uncertain, and not everyone is convinced it’ll hold. Mike Baker speaks with Joe Truzman, research analyst at the Foundation for Defense of Democracy’s Long War Journal, for insight into what could come next.

Later, the standoff between Washington and Caracas is escalating fast. The Trump administration has cut off all diplomatic efforts with the Maduro regime, signaling a sharp shift toward confrontation. Mike is joined by Andrés Martínez-Fernández of the Heritage Foundation to break down what this means for U.S.–Venezuela relations.
