Are We Sleep Walking Into a War With Venezuela? (with Jake Sullivan and Jon Finer)

Are we Sleep Walking into a War with Venezuela? Jake Sullivan and Jon Finer, former national security advisors to the president and co-hosts of “The Long Game” podcast, join Preet to discuss the escalating situation in Venezuela, including the Trump administration’s consideration of airstrikes, the possibility of targeting Nicolás Maduro, and the likelihood of a ground incursion. Plus, the latest on the Gaza peace plan and the expanding role of AI in modern conflict.

Then, Preet answers listener questions about a new law that allows senators to sue the U.S. government if it obtained their phone records and what a grand jury investigation actually does. 

In the bonus for Insiders, Preet and Jon discuss Trump’s meeting with Mohammed bin Salman and the lingering fallout from Jamal Khashoggi’s killing.
