📍EM Burlingame breaks down why Venezuela is not a regional crisis — but the first strategic move in a much larger global power operation now underway.

This conversation goes far beyond oil, elections, or headlines.

According to Burlingame, what just unfolded in Venezuela fits a long-running geopolitical pattern involving:

• shadow power networks
• regime change operations
• color revolutions
• proxy governments
• strategic positioning for future global conflict
• and the restructuring of world power itself

You’ll hear why Venezuela is being framed as “Step One” on what Burlingame describes as a global chessboard — and what that implies about what comes next.

📍Rick de la Torre, former Chief of Station in Venezuela, joins David Rutherford to expose the hidden intelligence networks, communist expansion, and foreign power operations that turned Venezuela into a criminal state — and a global launchpad for America’s enemies.
