Welcome back and Happy New Year! In this first episode of Season 2 of the Rogue Recap we tackle Somali fraud, commie cover-ups, and lunatic liberals that have, sadly, come out of the shadows. And of course, we would be remiss if we did not bash our RINO's as well; they are always good for a few laughs. From Mamdani to Maduro and Schumer to Walz, we've got you covered.

Sean opens the hour with New Year greetings and a brisk rundown of global flashpoints, citing a London Times report that Iran's supreme leader may flee to Russia if unrest worsens, Cuba on the brink, and courtroom developments around Venezuela's Nicolas Maduro. He credits Donald Trump for recent geopolitical shifts and forecasts economic benefits ahead, from lower interest rates to new manufacturing investment and cheaper energy. Sean praises the U.S. military and describes a high-risk operation he says led to Maduros capture, arguing the U.S. will temporarily oversee Venezuela until a safe transition, with figures like Maria Machado in the conversation. Domestically, he highlights Minnesota Governor Tim Walz ending his re-election bid amid corruption scrutiny and calls out online voices he says fuel conspiracy theories and antisemitism. He frames the coming midterm elections as pivotal and promises continued coverage as new details emerge.

Sean examines criticism of the presidents Venezuela strategy, contrasting public claims with outcomes. The conversation centers on the argument that if the policy were working, Juan Guaid would be in Venezuela, not here. The critic contends the Maduro regime is more powerful and entrenched today than when the effort began. Sean weighs these claims and what they reveal about the policy's track record this hour.
