Ruth and Ira join us this week to debunk the narratives pushed by U.S. mainstream media, designed to manufacture consent for President Trump's military aggression toward Venezuela. They walk us through key moments in Venezuelan history, the socialist revolution and its long resistance to U.S. intervention, underscoring how these struggles connect to the broader fight of working people around the world.

Reminding our listeners that the assault on Venezuela, is not an isolated policy choice. It reflects a centuries-long pattern of U.S. imperialism and economic exploitation, a pattern that ultimately serves a single purpose: protecting U.S. corporate interests and maintaining global capitalist dominance.
