Can the United States Just Grab a Foreign President? (#20)

January 3rd has a habit of being a rough day for Latin American strongmen. In 1990, Manuel Noriega walked out of the Vatican embassy in Panama City after ten days of nonstop rock music and surrendered to U.S. forces. In 2026, on the same date, helicopters hit Caracas and Nicolás Maduro ended up aboard the USS *Iwo Jima*.
This week on *The Roger Retrospective*, we follow Maduro into a Manhattan courtroom—beige prison clothes, new torture charges, and a pending fight over whether a sitting head of state can be tried in a foreign court at all. To make sense of it, we look at four different doors into the courtroom: Noriega (the template), Saddam Hussein (the one we handed back), Juan Orlando Hernández (the clean extradition that ended in a pardon), and Maduro (the sequel).
Along the way: head-of-state immunity, the strange Ker-Frisbie rule that U.S. courts mostly don’t care how you got there, the power of non-recognition, and the uncomfortable question of what happens when the rule we wrote gets used by someone else. Same night, same helicopters—three different words for what happened.
