Masha Gessen, a renowned writer and expert on authoritarianism, joins David French, a former JAG officer and political columnist, to dissect the controversial U.S. operation against Nicolás Maduro. They explore whether this act qualifies as law enforcement or war, scrutinize its legal ramifications, and connect it to historical military precedents. Gessen warns of the implications for global order, while French analyzes how such actions resonate with MAGA politics, ultimately questioning the meaning of 'America First' in this new context.
