Coup Confessions and Capitol Controversies

This chapter explores a former National Security Advisor's candid discussion about U.S. involvement in planning coups, particularly focusing on Venezuela. It contrasts the normalization of such admissions in American discourse with the serious ethical implications they carry, while also highlighting controversial figures from the January 6th Capitol riot and questions surrounding accountability. The conversation probes the complexities of political interventions and the reactions of media and elites to admissions that challenge conventional narratives.
