Don't Clap for Nazis

Tommy and Ben talk about the foreign policy implications of Senator Menendez's corruption charges, the Biden administration's move to grant temporary protected status to Venezuelan migrants and the role of US sanctions in fueling migration, and updates from Ukraine, including attacks on Russia's Black Sea fleet and Ukraine's grain supplies. They also discuss Ron DeSantis's time working at Guantanamo Bay, reports that the U.S. supplied Canada with intelligence about the assassination of a Sikh separatist on Canadian soil, a vetting disaster at the Canadian parliament, Saudi Crown prince Mohammed bin Salman's Fox News interview, and Rahm Emanuel's shit posting. Then Ben speaks with Olesya Vartanyan, the Crisis Group's Senior Analyst for the Caucasus Region, about Azerbaijan's seizure of Nagorno-Karabakh and the tens of thousands of ethnic Armenians now fleeing their homes.
