A former bus driver rose to command a nation sitting atop the world’s largest oil reserves — and became one of the most sanctioned, indicted, and contested leaders on Earth. In this episode of The Broken Truth Podcast, we investigate who Nicolás Maduro is, how he inherited Hugo Chávez’s revolution, and why the United States escalated its efforts to remove him from power. From criminal indictments to covert operations and the quiet authorization of military options that were never executed, this is a story about modern power colliding with its own limits — and what happens when removal becomes more dangerous than endurance.
