| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody, welcome to another episode of Aizond Geopolitics. |
| 0:04.3 | I'm joined today with J.T. Patton and Jack Murphy, our dear leader. |
| 0:08.7 | Hope everyone had a great Christmas and is excited for New Year's. |
| 0:13.1 | This one's going to be about Venezuela and what's going down there. |
| 0:17.3 | I mean, we just found out, you know, it just was confirmed and posted yesterday that there |
| 0:21.5 | was a drone strike. |
| 0:23.7 | I want to say it was a port exactly. |
| 0:25.6 | It was just like a place where like they basically load and unload drugs. |
| 0:30.6 | Supposedly no casualties. |
| 0:34.7 | It happened, I think, like a week or so ago. |
| 0:37.1 | President Trump mentioned it like kind of ambiguously in an interview. |
| 0:44.0 | And then, you know, journalists started doing their jobs and stuff like that. |
| 0:48.2 | And we got to confirm yesterday that it was a drone strike on land in Venezuela. |

| 0:58.8 | massive military buildup and the drone and the strikes on |
| 1:02.2 | boats in the Caribbean and the Pacific and stuff like that. |
| 1:08.2 | So J.T., how you doing? |
| 1:10.4 | What's your take on all this? Good. Thanks for having me. |
| 1:13.6 | Of course. I think a lot of it's a little bit of a joke. You know, not necessarily a joke for those |
| 1:20.8 | that are getting smoked, but we're definitely ramping up activity there in Venezuela in and around but I'm not so sure that the narrative still fits everything |
| 1:34.7 | I don't think you know I don't think much has changed since about 2010 when I was covering this |
| 1:43.6 | I think even some I read something the other day there was an interview by Marshall Billingsley, who's dealing with the Treasury right now. I remember in like 2010 Marshall had my report actually. I'm not knocking him, because I'm sure that Marshall doesn't usually do the collection of intel and the analysis of it, but he's got a lot of people that give it to him. |
