Empire Talks Back | Venezuela: Is Arresting Maduro Part of Trump’s Strategy?

In this episode of Empire Talks Back, host Wallace Allen is joined by Mac Romeo—a comedian, activist, and military veteran—and Myshjua Allen Murray, Founder of One Life Live Lit and writer of Mysellations, for a wide-ranging discussion on Venezuela, U.S. foreign policy, and political accountability.

The conversation examines whether efforts to arrest Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro during the Trump era align with an “America First” agenda—or reveal deeper questions about power, strategy, and political self-preservation.Moving beyond geopolitics, the discussion turns toward civic awareness and personal responsibility, exploring how Americans can remain informed, hopeful, and empowered amid global instability, media saturation, and political polarization.

This episode of Empire Talks Back invites listeners to think critically about international narratives while staying grounded in perspective, agency, and community accountability.
