DESCRIPTION
President Trump just announced a massive U.S.-Venezuela oil agreement involving more than 65 billion barrels of proven reserves—and the timing may be every bit as important as the deal itself.
At the same time, the Treasury Department has begun escalating its economic campaign against Iran’s overseas financial lifelines, U.S. forces continue enforcing the Iranian oil blockade, and CIA Director John Ratcliffe just made a rare trip to Moscow whose purpose remains the subject of conflicting reports.
So was the reduction in direct U.S. military action against Iran really a retreat—or are we watching Washington shift toward a potentially far broader campaign built around energy, banking, sanctions and economic isolation?
Tonight we connect the pieces.
