Description

The U.S. government has placed a $50 million bounty on Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, ostensibly for drug trafficking fentanyl-laced cocaine to the United States, but in truth as a means to grab a hold of Venezuela's oil and to silence a key critic of U.S. foreign policy. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger point out connections between U.S. intelligence agencies and drug cartels, the ongoing opioid crisis, and immigration policies, suggesting these are deliberate and systemic rather than accidental. Maduro’s counteroffer of a $50 million reward for the release of the Epstein files is presented as a political jab aimed at reminding Americans of the scandal President Trump is desperate to stop talking about.

You'd better use that 50 million to educate Americans on how to weane themselves off drugs.
