Trump's Designs on Latin America with Greg Grandin | The Nation Podcast
Update: 2025-10-27
Description
On October 14, Donald Trump announced that the United States had blown up a boat off the coast of Venezuela, killing six people on board. It was the fifth such US strike on a vessel in the Caribbean in the last six weeks. In total, 27 people have been killed in the attacks.
Trump has claimed that the bombings are part of a fight against drug cartels. But there is no legal basis for this campaign. We're not at war with cartels, none of the victims had been charged with a crime, and there's no evidence that Americans were under imminent threat from any of them.
Longtime Nation contributor Greg Grandin's piece about the strikes, "Trump's Caribbean Killing Spree," is in our November issue.
