US Preps For Cartel Strikes23 Aug 202500:24:31
For dealing with cartels, the military option is on the table

Today we're chatting with Ken Klippenstein about his recent story on the US preparing targeting packets for the Mexican cartels.  We get into whether or not this is just normal military planning, how the DOD has been involved south of the border and the likelihood of a kinetic operation is approved by President Trump.

Reuters is reporting that Putin's new peace plan has him freezing the line of contact in the south, while asking for Ukraine to give up territorial control of Donetsk and Luhansk.  We'll see if this proves accurate but it comes alongside further stalling tactics from Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov.

Today we're looking at the status of peace talks between Russia, Ukraine and the United States.  Unfortunately, Russia appears to be walking back all of the progress made in recent days.  From a meeting between Putin and Zelensky, to security guarantees, even the cause of the war, Russia is changing it's done from just a few days ago.

To the Russian Invaders24 Aug 202500:26:04
This is a powerful message about why Ukraine fights

Today we're looking into some battlefield updates as Ukraine celebrates it's Independence Day.  The updates include a recent raid by the Russian Volunteer Corps that resulted in Russian POWs branded with their service number, which is new.  The US apparently is restricting the Ukrainian's ability to strike inside of Russia but will be selling a new type of long range munition, the ERAM, set to arrive in the next six weeks.

Today we're looking at a series of posts made by North Korea where they highlight their soldiers who fought and died in Kursk over the last year.  After so much skepticism thrown on this idea, it's important to note that it did happen and is likely the first phase in a closer military alignment between Russia and the DPRK.

Ukraine Hammers Russian Targets in Crimea02 Sep 202500:18:58
Looks like they're setting the stage for something
Ukraine continues their targeting of Russian helicopters and air defense assets in Crimea with a few new clips being released by the Ukrainian GUR in recent days.  Russian analysts believe this is Ukraine setting the conditions for a near term attack in western Crimea, likely with some sort of long range stand-off munition.  We also look at some battlefield updates and a pessismistic assesment from Russian nationalist Igor Girkin.

Venezuela Ready For US Attack01 Sep 202500:13:05
This could be a pending military operation, or nothing at all

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/prestonstew

Today we're looking at the continuation of tensions between the United States and Venezuela as US warships head south.  Right now the official line from the US government is that this is a counter-drug operation but it's a lot of firepower descending on Caracas.  In turn, we're seeing some in Venezuela worry there's an aspect of regime change and/or direct military action in the cards.

We Have No Ukraine Policy31 Aug 202500:20:30
I don't think we have a coherent Ukraine policy
Today we're looking into some updates out of the war in Ukraine and ongoing efforts to bring about a peace deal with Russia.  A new Atlantic article suggests the US backtracked on an agreement with our European allies before meeting with Putin in Alaska where our entire approach seems to have shifted.  In turn, French President Macron suggests that Trump is being played by Putin.  We also look at some new weapons set to be sent to Ukraine and the possible first use of the Ukrainian 'Flamingo' cruise missile.

Israel Eliminates Houthis Leadership31 Aug 202500:14:20
This was bad day for the Houthis...
Israel just carried out Operation Drop of Luck where they eliminated a number of senior Houthi officials in one strike in Sa'ana, Yemen.  In a first, the Houthis are acknowledging the death of these officials as they pledge revenge against Israel.  Defense Minister Katz added that this is just the beginning and talked about mirroring their efforts against Tehran but with the Houthis.  We also saw Israel target Abu Obeida, the head spokesperson for the Qassam Brigades.  Following this recording, the IDF issued a statement confirming that Obaida was eliminated.

US Preps Venezuela Operation30 Aug 202500:12:43
Standard counter-drug move or setting the stage for regime change? 
Today we're looking into some updates around the US-Venezuela standoff.  We have multiple outlets covering this and presenting it as everything from a routine counter-drug operation, to a show of force, to a regime change in disguise.  Venezuela for their part continues to prepare for the possibility of US military force and the American vessels should be arriving off their coast shortly.

New Russian Drone Sinks Ukrainian Ship28 Aug 202500:23:07
Drone innovation is happening by the day
Today we're looking into some updates in Ukraine.  Russia used an unmanned surface vessel to strike a Ukrainian naval ship and carried out a major drone and missile attack against Kyiv.  Ukraine responded by hitting oil refineries inside of Russia and we consider an article discussing how those effects may not be seen for some time.

Venezuela Deploys Forces to Face US28 Aug 202500:11:01
Drones, soldiers and ships are being moved to counter the US Navy

Today we're looking at the continuation of issues between the US and Venezuela.  The US Navy has a large element moving south with a focus of interdicting drugs being trafficked to the United States while Venezuelan President Maduro fears that regime change is the real motive.  In response, Venezuela has begun mobilizing their population to take volunteers to defend the country and deployed military assets to the north and the coastline.

The Russians Who Need War27 Aug 202500:17:25
Peace could be a problem for this group

Today we're looking into some underappreciated challenges around a possible peace deal, the fact that so many in poor Russian regions are financially benefiting from this war.  The Telegraph detailed the extent that some of these communities are seeing a boost in their economic status that would go away immediately if the war stopped.  We also look at some talks of peace deals and a graphic story of a Ukrainian prisoner brutally mistreated in Russian captivity.

US Warships Approach Venezuela26 Aug 202500:15:14
Strategic signals or prepping for more?
Today we're looking at the recent deployments of US warships to the Caribbean.  The US says this is for counter-narcotics operations, while some in Venezuela are hoping it's more focused on regime-change.  Venezuela's ally Russia has even suggested sending long range drones to the country to put US bases in the region at risk.

War Being Declared Against the Cartels05 Sep 202500:14:16
According to senior officials, we have declared war on the cartels
Today we're looking into the ongoing developments in Venezuela as multiple US officials suggest we are actively engaged in a war with drug cartels there.  This of course opens up the possibility of what we might see in terms of military action in the near future.  We look at statements from Hegseth, Rubio, Gorka, Vance and Senator Rand Paul.  Additionally, Venezuela conducted a show of force by flying their F-16s low over US ships in the Caribbean yesterday.

Major Change in the Drug War03 Sep 202500:15:31
The US is preparing for additional strikes to fight back against drug traffickers 
Following yesterday's strike against Venezuelan traffickers, multiple US officials have suggested this is just the beginning as the US is likely to continue the use of military force south of the border.  We look at some statements by President Trump, Secretary of Defense Hegseth and Secretary of State Rubio.  Finally we review some claims made that these strikes were not legal and may face pushback at home and abroad.

Israel Targets Gaza City06 Sep 202500:13:43
Operation Gideon's Chariots II is underway
Israel has begun the next phase of offensive operations in Gaza with a stated goal of eliminating Hamas and returning the 48 hostages that remain in their captivity.  As movement gets underway, we're seeing the IDF target and destroy high rise buildings in Gaza City that they say are being utilized by Hamas to observe IDF movement, and as sniper or ATGM firing points.

US Considers Strikes In Venezuela07 Sep 202500:18:44
This military operation is set to expand
Today we're looking into some updates around the ongoing military operations off the coast of Venezuela.  The US maintains a significant presence there following a kinetic strike against an alleged cartel boat this past week.  Right now we're seeing a lot of signs to suggest that this is only the beginning and that more military action is set to come.  For that we look to some official statements from President Trump, VP Vance, Senator Duckworth, Senator Warner and more.

Facing Russia Without America07 Sep 202500:16:54
Europe needs to be ready to go it alone

For those interested in the Patreon program: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/prestonstew

Today we're diving into the increasing likelihood that Europe and Ukraine will be forced to take on Russia alone, without support from the United States.  While I don't personally think this is the right move for US national security now or into the future, it's where we are today.  To explore this we look at a recent article by former Lithuanian Foreign Minister Landsbergis who explains where Europe fell short this summer and what they need to do now.

Russia Just Attacked NATO10 Sep 202500:17:03
This is a major test of the alliance.

Yesterday 19 Russian drones entered Polish airspace in what is looking to be the most significant test of the NATO alliance in the organization's history.  This is a dynamic situation so today we're running through what we know so far, the reactions from NATO, Russia and Poland and what to watch for going forward.

Nowhere Is Safe For Hamas10 Sep 202500:18:31
This one is probably going to have some fallout
Earlier today Israel struck a building in Qatar that they said housed a number of Hamas senior officials.  While we don't have confirmation quite yet, there are conflicting claims suggesting that some Hamas members were killed but the leaders and at least one report that a Qatari soldier may have been killed as well.  We look at the official responses from Israel, Qatar and the United States and what to watch for going forward.

Just Give In: Counterpoints on the Ukraine War09 Sep 202500:28:27
Addressing the arguments against supporting Ukraine
Today we're chatting with Peter Dickinson about the ongoing peace process between Russia and Ukraine.  We tackle some of the counterarguments I've seen pushing against the process or continued US/European support for Ukraine.  This includes what Russia will do after Ukraine, why Ukrainian sovereignty matters to to the US and Europe, what else can be used to push a peace deal and more.

Trump Flips On Ukraine24 Sep 202500:20:47
These were major changes in US policy
Yesterday at the United Nations, President Trump and Zelensky signaled a few items that would end up being a significant shift in US policy towards the Russia-Ukraine war. We need to wait for the actions to follow but as of now this signals a big shift in how the Trump administration is viewing continued support for NATO and frustration with Russia

Trump Agrees - NATO Should Shoot Down Russian Jets23 Sep 202500:17:49

Let's get into some of the statements coming out of today's session at the United Nations where President Trump made remarks to the General Assembly and then met with leaders one on one afterwards.  We heard some rather hawkish statements from Trump related to the war in Ukraine, even going so far as to say he supports NATO shooting down Russian aircraft that violate their airspace.

The US continues to add significant military resources to the counter-narcotics operation in the Caribbean with the addition of 10 F-35B stealth fighters.  This comes as Venezuela threatens their neighbors to not work with the United States and US officials weigh the benefits of regime change.

Russians Are In The Pipes...Again13 Sep 202500:24:16
They're back to the tactic that has worked before
Russian soldiers appear to be back in the pipelines in eastern Ukraine working to avoid drone strikes as they approach the front.  All of the reporting right now is coming from Ukrainian channels so we'll watch as this situation develops in the coming days.  Bigger picture, it looks like NATO is failing the Russian test of a few days ago after firing 19 drones into Polish airspace.  The lack of unity, lack of US statements and action is concerning and no doubt noticed by Putin.

US Accused of Striking Civilians11 Sep 202500:15:02
Someone here is lying
Today we're looking at new information coming out of the ongoing US-Venezuela tensions.  Venezuela has accused the US of killing 11 civilians in the strike last week while the DOW maintains they knew everyone on board and all were members of a terror organization.  Amidst this, US Senator Reed stated that he still hasn't seen intel confirming who was aboard the ship we hit.

US Journalist: America Bad, Russia Good22 Sep 202500:22:55
Willing or unwilling, this is information warfare in the modern age
Today we're looking at a new report coming out of OAN from an American that traveled to Russian occupied Ukraine to tell their story of why Putin had to invade. We run through some of their comments that have been made public so far and it's essentially the same recycled points we've heard since 2014 about Ukraine having no agency, this is all the work of the US deep state, and whatever Russia does, it's nothing compared to US wars in the Middle East.

Most Americans Don't Want to Invade Venezuela...But Some Do21 Sep 202500:13:50
Another kinetic strike and reports of special ops being forward deployed
Today we're looking at the continued escalation between the United States and Venezuela as President Trump announced another strike against a cartel boat and the New York Times is reporting that special operations forces are being moved to Puerto Rico for possible ground raids.  This comes as a new YouGov poll shows that most Americans are opposed to an invasion of Venezuela but there's actually a split along party lines.

Russian Jets Violate NATO Airspace20 Sep 202500:14:53
Putin is testing the NATO alliance and we're failing that test
Earlier today three Russian MiG-31s entered NATO airspace and loitered for 12 minutes before being pushed out by Italian F-35s.  This is a continuation of Russia testing the NATO alliance to see if we will actually stand together, or if there's some room for him to exploit.  I believe we're failing right now and that's why we went from Russian drones to manned aircraft entering NATO airspace.

The US and Venezuela continue to message that they're each ready for war.  US Marines carried out amphibious training in Puerto Rico while the Venezuelan military forward deployed tanks, air defense, aircraft and drones off their coastline near where a US interception recently occurred.  We look at these new developments and what to expect going forward.

Israel Takes On Gaza City - Gideon's Chariots II Begins17 Sep 202500:16:44
Israel just began the next phase of the war 
Today we're looking into the expansion of Israeli ground operations into Gaza City.  We have a few official statements from the IDF outlining the course of Gideon's Chariots II and how it stands so far.  Additionally, US Senator Van Hollen just released a video calling the Israeli actions in Gaza an ethnic cleansing, which I believe makes him the senior-most US official to publicly push back on Netanyahu to that degree.

Trump's Cartel Strikes Under Fire17 Sep 202500:16:25
There's an important line to walk with military action
Today we're looking into the most recent US military strike in the Caribbean against alleged drug traffickers.  While the US government is releasing the strike footage and celebrating these new actions, some legal experts are weighing in that it may not be legal and does not align with the existing framework we still continue to use around the Global War on Terror.

The support for Ukraine and anger towards Russia continues to build in the Trump administration.  Today we look at a new story suggesting that Trump may have been read in on a coming Ukrainian offensive which could somewhat explain his recent change in tone towards the conflict.  But it's not just Trump, we have Zelensky, Ambassador Waltz, VP Vance, and Secretary Bessent weighing in as well.
