Welcome to Black Bart's News Daily. Thanks for being here. Tons of stuff today. So we got Greenland Update. We had an oil expert on. I had questions about Venezuela heavy crude. Like what is heavy crude? And what does the process look like moving forward now to get that all up and running? One of our listeners runs this giant like consulting company for huge offshore oil rigs and huge operation.

0:41.7

It's like this guy knows this stuff.

0:42.9

So it was really cool to talk to him.

0:44.8

That was great.

0:45.8

That's on the full podcast.

0:47.8

We talked about Minneapolis.

0:49.3

We're going to play our interview or our discussion about Minneapolis in a minute.

0:54.2

But let's first start with John Hayward, who did a wonderful job talking about the

0:58.6

Venezuelan, or not Venezuela, the oil tankers that had some stops in Venezuela.

1:03.7

And at the end, like, threw in a little thing about Iran, the Iranian regime may be

1:07.7

collapsing in the next day or week or so, maybe.

1:12.1

That should be on our radar as well.

1:13.5

Here's the great John Hayward, who is our Breitbart News National Security Deputy Editor.

1:41.1

John, good morning, sir.

1:43.0

Good to talk to you.

1:44.1

Great to talk to you. Tell us what

1:45.9

happened with the two so-called oil tankers yesterday. Well, this is a crackdown on what is known as

2:13.2

They fly false flags. They have falsified documents and paperwork. And this is all for the purpose of evading U.S. and European sanctions on oil, particularly right now, and distributing that oil around the world. And what the United States did, especially in the action yesterday, is put the shadow fleet on notice. This tactic will no longer work. We're not going to let them do this. We're not going to let them break the law. We're going to enforce international law. And if they don't like it, they better be ready for a fight. Because in one case, we walked into a tanker, Russia was actually escorting. And the Russian military was howling at us that that tanker was flying a Russian flag. And we must not board. And we did it anyway and tore their stupid flag down. It's a long past time. That's

2:52.7

a noteworthy part of the story that Russia was not only aware, but there. Yes, yeah, they were
