On tonight’s special “Big Oil Takeover of Venezuela” edition, Legal AF founders Ben Meiselas and Michael Popok examine the Trump administration’s move toward a takeover of Venezuelan oil assets and the serious constitutional and statutory implications for Congressional war powers, foreign policy authority, and oversight. The episode analyzes whether the escalation abroad is being used to divert attention from renewed scrutiny of the Epstein files and the continued obstruction surrounding their release. The hosts also break down Jack Smith’s testimony to Congress, where he laid out the beyond-a-reasonable-doubt evidentiary record establishing that Donald Trump conspired to defraud the United States and acted as the perpetrator of a crime against the American people.
