PDB Afternoon Bulletin | January 9th, 2026: Post-Maduro Regime Starts Playing Ball With Trump & Putin Unleashes Hypersonic Missile Near NATO Border

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: First—Venezuela is making a major concession to the U.S., announcing the release of long detained political prisoners, while signaling it’s ready to talk. But is this real change, or just the actions of a regime trying to buy time under pressure from President Trump? I’ll break it down. Later in the show—Putin responds to ongoing peace efforts by firing off a hypersonic, nuclear-capable missile at a target in Ukraine near the border with NATO—a clear message of intimidation aimed at the entire European continent.
