Max Blumenthal

Max Blumenthal joins Sabby Sabs to torch the fantasy that Trump’s foreign policy is “America First” rather than donor-driven gangsterism. He walks through the Venezuela raid, TPUSA’s implosion, and the bipartisan drive toward war with Iran, showing how think tank ghouls, Zionist fixers, and GOP operatives script the talking points corporate media obediently regurgitates. As MAGA influencers melt...

On the Radio War Nerd podcast hosted by Mark Ames and John Dolan, The Grayzone’s Anya Parampil discusses her 2023 book, “Corporate Coup: Venezuela and the End of US Empire,” outlining the sophisticated campaign of financial and political warfare Washington has waged on Venezuela since its Chavista government came to power. Parampil details the plot to steal Venezuela’s most valuable foreign...

Max Blumenthal joins Glenn Diesen to dissect the January 3rd raid on Caracas—a terrorist assault that killed dozens, kidnapped Maduro, and exposed Trump’s Venezuela endgame as raw plunder, not liberation. With the Chavista state still intact, Delcy Rodríguez in Miraflores, and no regime change achieved, Trump demands backroom deals: Venezuelan oil revenue funneled to offshore CIA slush funds,...

Max Blumenthal dissects Trump’s surprise abduction of Nicolás Maduro—mirrored to the 1989 Panama invasion—and the theories about military stand-downs that allowed a decapitation raid with minimal Venezuelan resistance. He maps the real endgame: handing Venezuela’s oil, minerals, and lithium to Trump cronies and Elon Musk while keeping the Bolivarian Revolution’s shell intact, installing a pliable...

Max Blumenthal joins Judge Napolitano to expose the real agenda behind Trump’s Venezuela blockade: handing $1.7 trillion in oil, minerals, and infrastructure to Miami’s anti-Chávez exiles and their Republican patrons. Marco Rubio, architect of the debacle, has spent decades cultivating regime-change cutouts like María Corina Machado, who’s already drafted a privatization blueprint to auction off...

Anya Parampil joins Judge Napolitano to dismantle Washington’s “narco-state” fairy tale about Venezuela—a projection that obscures decades of CIA complicity in drug trafficking through the region. While Trump and Rubio brand Maduro a kingpin to justify oil piracy and regime change, the real cartel operates out of Langley, where covert ops and cocaine corridors have been standard policy since the...

On the Dialogue Works podcast, Max Blumenthal discusses how Trump ended 2025 not by “ending wars” but by multiplying them. From Gaza to Venezuela, Somalia to Ukraine, Trump perpetuated war while dangling apocalypse over Iran and Taiwan to please his donors. Mentally enfeebled and owned by Likudnik and Persian Gulf billionaires, he greenlights Netanyahu’s Iran fantasies, fuels sanctions-driven...

The Grayzone’s Oscar Leon interviews Andres Durán, an Ecuadoran investigative journalist who has had to flee his country due to his allegations that billionaire, US-allied President Daniel Noboa, the Noboa family and their inner circle are involved in the international drug trade. In this explosive interview, Durán reveals the following:* Ecuador, not Venezuela, is the primary departure point for...

In this interview, Max Blumenthal dissects how Rubio’s regime-change crusade, oil tanker piracy, and “narco-state” propaganda are driving the U.S. toward a hemispheric disaster—insurgency, mass migration, and economic blowback included. He tracks Trump’s mental unravelling, the Epstein files farce, the implosion of the MAGA media ecosystem, and Netanyahu’s desperate scramble to keep Trump on...

Max Blumenthal and Aaron Mate cover the furor over Bari Weiss spiking a 60 Minutes segment that exposed the Salvadoran dungeon that has become a linchpin of the Trump-Rubio deportation policy, and the future of a corporate media stripped of the illusion of impartiality. They also cover an insider attack on US troops in Syria, the escalation of US war on Venezuela, US strikes on Nigeria, and...
