Donald Trump and Interim Venezuelan President Delcy Rodriguez have announced a 'historic' oil deal between the United States and Venezuela. Although the terms remain murky, the deal appears extremely favorable to the U.S. government and very bad for Venezuela. In this episode, Dimitri Lascaris discusses the deal with peace activist and former U.S. Vice-Presidential candidate, Ajamu Baraka. Ajamu and Dimitri also discuss the attitude of Democratic Party leaders toward the Iran war and a highly controversial open letter signed by prominent anti-war activists that is critical of Iran.
