DES HR 4 - Maduro Ultimatum, 'Back the Blue Act,' and the Woke Arrest of a Brit for Gun Photos

View descriptionShare

The final hour begins with an update on the Venezuela crisis and President Trump's hardline approach against Nicolás Maduro, whom the U.S. has labeled a narco-trafficker. Analysts suggest that if Trump orders a military strike, Maduro would be isolated, as Russia and China are unlikely to intervene militarily, preferring a "war of words." The host reports that Trump allegedly gave Maduro an ultimatum: resign immediately in exchange for the safety of his family, or face the consequences. This posture is linked to the administration's broader crusade against drugs, which has involved over 20 strikes against alleged narco boats in Latin American waters.

 

The host shifts to domestic politics, discussing the "Back the Blue Act," proposed by Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) and backed by 31 Republican senators. The bill aims to create a new federal crime for targeting law enforcement officers, potentially subjecting murderers to the death penalty and mandatory 30 years in prison. The host, however, questions the need for new laws, advocating for enforcing existing ones, and reads listener feedback expressing fear that the bill could embolden bad actors within law enforcement and infringe on citizens' Fourth Amendment and self-defense rights, especially concerning controversial "no-knock" warrants.

The segment also features a report on a British IT consultant who was arrested twice and charged with a public order offense for simply posting photos of himself holding a shotgun while visiting the U.S. Finally, the host mentions upcoming weekend sports (SEC and Big Ten football championships) and a brief story about actress Halle Berry criticizing California Governor Gavin Newsom for vetoing a menopause bill.
