Trump’s Law of War

Is the United States at war with Venezuela? In an excerpt from this week’s Insider episode, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance discuss the legality of the U.S.’s oil tanker seizure and the strikes against alleged Venezuelan drug-trafficking boats. Plus, if survivors remain after a strike, what does the law require the United States to do? 

In the full episode, Preet and Joyce cover more news:

– Two grand juries decline criminal charges against New York Attorney General Letitia James; and

– A federal judge orders the Trump administration to end the National Guard deployment in Los Angeles.
