In this week’s segment, we discuss the abuse of state power domestically and internationally. In Minnesota, the Trump administration has unleashed ICE, resulting in the fatal shooting of a US citizen as well as assaults and detentions carried out against others. But we begin with Venezuela and discuss the aftermath of US aggression and the kidnapping of the president and his wife. Venezuelans remain in solidarity with their government, which continues to function and to resist U.S. dictates.
