Trump vs. Venezuela and Greenland: America gonna America! – Weekly Wrap-Up with Alex von Tunzelmann
Episode 1723
Thursday, 8 January, 2026
Wrapping up the stories of the week, Jacob Jarvis is joined by Alex von Tunzelmann to dig into the fallout from Trump’s frenetic first week of 2026. From military intervention in Venezuela to the looming threat to seize control of Greenland, the President kicks off America’s 250th year with a bang. Plus, should Remainers be getting excited about Keir Starmer’s plan to reset the UK’s relationship with the EU? And finally, Alex’s under-the-radar story takes us to Texas, where a proposal to ban the teaching of Plato has become the latest front in the culture war. www.patreon.com/bunkercast Written and presented by Jacob Jarvis with Alex von Tunzelmann.
