News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now. I'm Nathan Hager. The U.S. blockade of Venezuelan oil continues even after the ouster of Nicolas Maduro. This morning, the Trump administration said the Coast Guard carried out back-to-back seizures of so-called Dark Fleet vessels. One, a Russia flagship formerly known as Bella One, seized in the North Atlantic.

The billionaire founder of Shift4Payments is currently NASA's newest administrator. The space agency's press secretary posted on X that employees who do exceptional work will be eligible for flyovers and trips with Isaacman to celebrate America's 250th birthday. There's no word on how this incentive would work or how employees' performance will be graded. That's news when you want it.
