Welcome to Season 5 of the Nova Society! Today, we hear from Nigel from Orlando, Florida, who writes: I’m sure your mailbag is getting blown up with questions about the US attacking Venezuela and the arrest of President Maduro. So, I guess the obvious question would be, what is the panel’s reaction to this development? You’ve talked about how this type of action might be about regime change, but Trump is leaving the Vice President in place, so is this really a regime change? Trump seems to be talking only about oil, nothing about these drugs, which was how this was framed as starting in the first place.
