About this episode
In this episode, we break down President Trump’s order to blockade a sanctioned oil tanker and why the White House says it’s targeted enforcement—not a symbolic stunt. In this episode, we dig into the legal and geopolitical arguments, the media backlash, and what “active disruption” means for future sanctions policy.
