Good morning, everybody. Happy New Year. We have an amazing show for everybody today. What do we have, Crystal? Feels good to be back in the studio, I have to say. It feels great to be back, reflecting our muscles. We've got a new war on the horizon. Didn't want it, didn't want it. Didn't want it. We're here to do it with all of you. And I wouldn't rather, I would rather, I would not rather do it with anyone else.

Thank you, soccer. Same. So we are actually just going to focus on Venezuela for the entire show today from every angle that you could think of. We're going to give you the latest Trump made a bunch of new comments yesterday. Also, Maduro is actually expected in court today. He's being held in the same person as Luigi and Diddy. So I don't know. None of it feels real. Anyway, we're also going to have a fantastic guest named Eva Gollinger. She's an attorney. She's also written a book about Hugo Chavez. And she has a lot of insight and theories about what actually went down and especially with regard to the now acting president, Delci Rodriguez.

So definitely want to talk to her.

We've got one, David Rojas, joining us as well.

He wrote a piece about the future that he sees for Venezuela and also going to ask him about some of the South Florida reaction and the upset over the fact that Trump just threw Machado, the opposition leader under the bus. We're going to take a look at all of

the vulture capitalists who are swarming and circling and also whether or not Trump's oil

dreams are actually going to come to fruition. We're going to take a look at the Democratic Party

reaction as well. They are a bit in disarray

over how to approach all of this. And also got to call out a bunch of right-wing influencers
