Cost of sanctions: Maduro's ally extradited to US (Full show)

Alleged financier for Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has been extradited to the US. He has been charged in connection with bribery and corruption at the expense of Venezuela’s impoverished citizenry. His lawyers call the charges “politically motivated.” RT America's Trinity Chavez reports. Then Prof. Steve Elner, author of “Latin America’s Pink Tide,” shares his analysis. He argues that everyone doing business with Venezuela has to contend with an impossible labyrinth of US sanctions and a climate of fear, stoked by the threat of sanctions, which sets Saab and his ilk up to fail.

But first, have you heard of Tennessee Judge Donna Scott Davenport? She locked up 48 percent of the juveniles who appeared in her court, often on the most tenuous of grounds. Ten such children were unlawfully charged with a crime that doesn’t exist under Tennessee law. Representatives of at least 1,000 of the minors, some of whom were as young as eight at the time of detention, have filed suit against the draconian judge. Independent journalist Ashlee Banks joins to discuss.

RT America’s Alex Mihailovich reports on the latest in the saga of the former British spy whose dossier sparked the “Russiagate” phenomenon, Michael Steele before Ed Martin of Phyllis Schlafly Eagles shares his insights.

Plus, FBI agents raided a property in the Washington, DC area belonging to relatives of Russian business tycoon and billionaire philanthropist Oleg Deripaska on Tuesday. He is the target of US sanctions and has known links with erstwhile Trump operative Paul Manafort. He vehemently denies any wrongdoing. RT America’s Faran Fronczak reports from the scene.
