Podcasts about El Salvador

Characteristic of this administration's over-the-top but never-thought-out immigration enforcement, Trump traded more than 250 Venezuelans who had been deported to El Salvador's notorious CECOT prison for 10 Americans who were being held prisoner in Venezuela—including a man convicted of a triple homicide.  Guest:  Jonathan Blitzer, staff writer at the New Yorker and author of Everyone Who Is Gone Is Here: The United States, Central America, and the Making of a Crisis.

A new model projects Bitcoin could surge to $400,000 by year-end, as institutions and “forced buyers” drive unprecedented supply pressure. Meanwhile, Taiwan makes history with its first Bitcoin treasury - Top Win raises $10 million to stack BTC. And in Washington, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent backpedals on his earlier stance, now saying U.S. Bitcoin buys are still “possible” through budget-neutral mechanisms. Max Keiser affirms El Salvador's unstoppable Bitcoin accumulation, calling it proof that “Bitcoin Country” is leading by example. He responded directly to the U.S. flip-flop, saying Atkins should admit El Salvador is setting the pace while America scrambles to copy Bukele's Bitcoin and security policies. “You guys are no. 2 - and you need to try harder.” We break down what this $400K forecast really means, why Taiwan's bold move signals a new era of national BTC treasuries, and how America's indecision exposes its weakness in the face of unstoppable hyperbitcoinization.

Yesterday Gavin Newsom, the Governor of California, the state with the highest poverty rate in the nation, held a political rally to announce his resistance to the pro-America policies of President Donald J. Trump—and Trump responded with exactly the kind of pro-America smash-mouth politics that I—and I expect YOU—voted for a million times over!Even as Newsom, the California governor of an illegal migrant third-world invader sanctuary state, and Karen Bass, the Los Angeles mayor of an illegal migrant third-world invader sanctuary city, were seeking to rally their supporters inside, Immigration and Customs Enforcement were present OUTSIDE and IN FORCE, making arrests of any illegal migrant third-world invaders that popped up on their radar screen.  Next stop for those arrested? HOME!  Whether that be Mexico, Guatemala, Venezuela, Haiti, or if home won't take them perhaps Djibouti or the tropical prison resort of CECOT in El Salvador!  GREAT WORK ICE, and thanks again for ALL THE WINNING, President Trump!The #1 guide for understanding when using force to protect yourself is legal.

Interview with Dr. Sophal Ear: 25:30 This week, Kelly and Tristan examine the backsliding of democracy in El Salvador and analyze the regional implications for President Bukele's political crackdown. They then explore Trump's escalating tariff war with India, which threatens to undermine the partnership between the world's two largest democracies.

VR3 - It 's Thomas, Lydia, and Matt versus the entire National Review editorial board! Join us as we take on the conservative magazine's recent op-ed on why it is extremely rude to compare masked American federal agents of today who refuse to identify themselves as they grab innocent families off of the street and shove them into unmarked vans bound for concentration camps to masked Nazi German agents of 1933-1945 who refused to identify themselves as they grabbed innocent families off the street and shoved them into vans bound for concentration camps. Matt explains with historical examples why ICE is not NOT the Gestapo as we consider what we can learn from Nazi history. We celebrate the recent return of Maryland father Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the US after his illegal deportation to El Salvador with a take so bad that it is hard to believe that the whole thing wasn't actually published in The Onion. What was the audience for this willfully obtuse Newsweek op-ed praising the DOJ for finding a way to bring Abrego Garcia back other than the fact that the Supreme Court told them to, and what is this trying to say to them? Has this thing already aged worse than Stephen Miller? Finally: updates from Martha's Vineyard (last week's patron-only story) as Epstein attorney Alan Dershowitz and his crusade to bring down the considerable weight of the law against people who refuse to serve him tasty Polish food.

When “War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength” we are living in an era of alternate facts. Mary and Andrew apply this Orwellian concept to what's happening this week, after President Trump cited section 740 of the Home Rule Act to federalize the DC police force and send in the national guard to the nation's capital. They detail how the president was able to do this and why Congress will be the ultimate arbiter of this move. Then, they highlight some litigation befitting this theme, with Judge Breyer's trial starting this week on the use of the national guard in Los Angeles, and some decisions including not to unseal grand jury testimony in the Ghislaine Maxwell case, plus an Appeals court blocking contempt proceedings in JGG. Last up, Andrew and Mary take a look at Judge Henderson's opinion in the OMB case and why it deserves more attention than it's received. Further reading: Here is President Trump's letter to Congress citing section 740, courtesy of the New York Times.And some exciting news: tickets are on sale now for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.

“La aprobación exprés de una reforma constitucional que habilita la reelección indefinida en El Salvador marca un punto de no retorno en el desmantelamiento del orden democrático bajo el gobierno de Nayib Bukele” La afirmación deviene del especialista en política internacional Daniel Zovatto, pero es compartida de manera unánime por otros expertos en la materia. Los niveles de aprobación de hasta 80% se deben a su política de mano dura, aunque ya no es solo contra mareros y delincuentes, sino también contra periodistas, activistas de Derechos Humanos que han debido huir del país o, como en el caso de la reconocida abogada Ruth López, enfrentar la cárcel con acusaciones prefabricadas. La libertad de expresión, se sabe bien, es la primera víctima de cualquier deriva autoritaria. Por eso, pese a los aplastantes índices de apoyo, el 58% de la población teme represalias por criticar al gobierno y el 37% evita opinar sobre los fracasos del régimen. Así los ciudadanos prefieren alinearse a lo “políticamente correcto” según concluyó una muy reciente encuesta de junio, realizada por la Universidad José Simeón Cañas, al evaluar el sexto año de la administración. Y es que la concentración del poder - lo que se conoce como la Bukelización de la política- es total. El gobernante tiene control del Legislativo y el Judicial desde el 2011. Así pudo reelegirse inconstitucionalmente en el 2024 y así ha asestado el último golpe el 31 de julio con un paquete de reformas constitucionales que incluyen reelección indefinida, extensión del mandato de 5 a 6 años, eliminación de la segunda ronda electoral y adelanto de las votaciones presidenciales y legislativas del 2029 al 2027 para unirlas con las municipales. La autocracia salvadoreña acelera el paso con el beneplácito -entre otros- del gobierno de Donald Trump y para analizar el tema conversamos con el politólogo Sergio Araya Alvarado.

In this 15 minute podcast: -Host Philip Blumel highlights polling showing 79% of Democrats support term limits, countering the misconception that it is a Republican-only cause. -Prominent Democrats, including Barack Obama, Lori Lightfoot, and Andrew Yang, voice strong support for term limits across various offices. -Illinois' lack of term limits is tied to a long history of corruption, entrenched political machines, and weak oversight systems. -Twelve states have passed resolutions calling for an Article V convention to propose congressional term limits, with momentum building nationally. -The show warns about global examples like El Salvador, where abolishing term limits undermines democracy, reinforcing the U.S. commitment to political safeguards.

This week, we sit down with actor Luis Alexander Mejia to talk about the audition process, the power of movement training, and how staying creative in the room can make you a more versatile performer. Luis also shares how being an immigrant from El Salvador shaped his perspective—and why telling stories rooted in that experience isn't just entertaining, but essential and educational. We get into the growing wave of vertical filmmaking, and why playing a villain is an exciting twist for someone as kind-hearted as Luis in real life. A thoughtful, inspiring episode for artists and storytellers alike.

What happens when Bitcoiners stop waiting for legacy platforms and start building their own? In this episode, Mike sits down with Jake Seifert, co-founder of AirBTC, a Bitcoin-first alternative to Airbnb. Jake's not just talking about circular economy theory, he's out there trying to make it real, one travel listing at a time.They get into the friction points of convincing Bitcoiners to actually spend their Bitcoin, the role of KYC in a decentralized travel platform, and why it's not enough to just stack sats. Jake explains how AirBTC works, how it handles payments in SATs, and why peer-to-peer lodging still needs basic trust. The conversation also explores why most listings are outside the US, what it's like bootstrapping without fiat funding, and why hodl-only culture might be holding the movement back.This episode gives a front-line view of what it takes to build infrastructure for a Bitcoin standard, no venture capital, no permission, just a platform made by and for people who want to live on Bitcoin now.

Andrew Day, Sumantra Maitra, and Joseph Addington discuss President Donald Trump's punishing new tariffs on India, his upcoming meeting with Vladimir Putin, and Nayib Bukele's move that could let him remain president of El Salvador for life. Recorded August 7, 2025.

Nayib Bukele's global reputation is split—dictator or Bitcoin savior? In this explosive discussion, Francis Pouliot, Aleks Svetski, and Seb Bunney dive into the truth behind Bukele's leadership, El Salvador's Bitcoin experiment, and what it means for the future of financial freedom.FOLLOW TODAY'S PANELISTS:https://x.com/francispouliot_https://x.com/SvetskiWriteshttps://x.com/sebbunneyFOLLOW BTC SESSIONS on X/Nostr: x.com/BTCsessionsbtcsessions@getalby.comBOOK private one-on-one sessions with BITCOIN MENTOR!

Entre mayo y julio de 2025, decenas de periodistas de El Salvador han salido al exilio. Aunque el discurso oficial lo niegue, las detenciones, la vigilancia y las leyes restrictivas los han forzado a abandonar el país por seguridad. Periodistas y expertos advierten sobre un patrón autoritario que amenaza el periodismo en toda la región.

We're starting to hear the horror stories from some of the Venezuelan men who the Trump Administration deported to the Salvadoran super-max prison known as CECOT. Many of the migrants, who were abruptly released and sent back to Venezuela last month as part of a prisoner exchange with the U.S., allege they suffered physical, psychological and sexual abuse during their detention. At least one man is trying to sue the U.S. government over his time in CECOT. And then there's Andry José Hernández Romero, the gay makeup artist whose story garnered national attention after his arrest. He says he faced constant harassment in the prison because of his sexual orientation. Melissa Shepard, director of legal services at the Immigrant Defenders Law Center and one of Romero's legal representatives, joins us to talk his story and others who were detained at CECOT.And in headlines: President Donald Trump suggested he may soon meet in person with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Texas Democrats were forced to evacuate their Illinois hotel because of a fake bomb threat, and the Department of Homeland Security lifted age limits on Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers.Show Notes:Check out Immigrant Defenders Law Center – www.immdef.org/Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

The violence in El Salvador has come to American attention with the deportation of accused gang members to a notorious prison there. Viet Thanh Nguyen, professor of literature at the University of Southern California, joins host Krys Boyd to discuss his trip to El Salvador, which coincided with Secretary of State Marco Rubio's trip, and how their versions of American greatness differ immensely as they look to immigration and violence in the region. His article “Greater America Has Been Exporting Disunion for Decades” was published in The Nation.  Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Tommy and Ben kick off the show by digging into Trump and Netanyahu's incompatible visions for the war in Gaza: a comprehensive peace deal vs. more fighting and annexation. They also discuss the continuing humanitarian disaster in the Strip, horrific violence in the West Bank even as Speaker of the House Mike Johnson visits the occupied territory, and Netanyahu's firing of Israel's attorney general. Then they cover Trump's tariff threats against India and his newly rocky relationship with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, how America has screwed over Lesotho and Switzerland on trade, and Russia's tightening control over citizens' internet access. Also covered: the legal case against former Colombian President Álvaro Uribe, and President Nayib Bukele's move to end term limits in El Salvador. Finally, Justin Trudeau and Katy Perry get cozy in Montreal and State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce reinvents what's possible when it comes to word salad. Then, Ben speaks with Elly Schlein, secretary of Italy's Democratic Party, about what it's like being in opposition to Giorgia Meloni and how progressives can position themselves against the far-right.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In today's episode, we cover Crime Stats Drop but Cops Pay the Price New data shows a nationwide decline in violent and property crimes, and the White House is claiming credit. But unreported crimes may tell a different story, and police deaths and assaults are surging. Bryan unpacks the politics, the exceptions like Washington DC and Boston, and the deeper trends. Court Forces Border Agents to Allow Asylum Seekers A federal appeals court has ordered the Trump administration to allow certain migrants into the country under asylum laws. Border agents are now instructed to detain but not deport. Bryan explains how this decision could reignite legal challenges and weaken the administration's immigration crackdown. House Subpoenas Clintons and DOJ Over Epstein Congressional investigators have subpoenaed Bill and Hillary Clinton, James Comey, Loretta Lynch, Eric Holder, and others in a renewed probe of Jeffrey Epstein's network. But Alex Acosta—the prosecutor who gave Epstein his 2008 sweetheart deal—was left off the list. Bryan breaks down what that might mean. Listener Questions Return Bryan responds to Richard, who challenges his support for El Salvador's President Bukele. He explores the tradeoffs of partnering with strongmen in the immigration fight. Eric from Southern California asks whether Bryan's podcast is any different from AI, leading to a philosophical take on human thinking and machine learning. And Jack from Arkansas wants to know how Bryan detected surveillance in New York. Bryan shares real-life spycraft stories, including one involving a man he nicknamed “Elmer Fudd.” "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has spent her freshman year in Congress making national headlines. She made national headlines for her travel to El Salvador where she tried, unsuccessfully, to meet with a man who was deported to that country as part of President Donald Trump's mass deportation effort. At the same time, she's thinking about her political party – from who will run for president in 2028 to who is signing up new voters. This week on The Gaggle, a politics podcast by The Arizona Republic and azcentral.com, we are joined by Rep. Ansari to break down her first year in Congress and her attempts to work across the aisle.

Accountability or weaponization? That's the question Andrew and Mary tackle in their 150th episode together, starting with the distraction of the Office of the Special Counsel's investigation into Jack Smith for possible Hatch Act violations. In other DOJ related matters, they give some context to the Trump administration's continued battle to keep Alina Habba, a Trump ally, as New Jersey U.S. Attorney, just as The Legal Accountability Center filed bar complaints against lawyers who have represented Trump's White House in court. In another sideshow, Andrew and Mary break down what to make of a report on the “Clinton Plan” emails, declassified amid the Epstein controversy. And last up, they detail the decision out of the 9th Circuit Court which upheld a pause on ICE raids in California.  Further Reading: Here is the piece Andrew and his colleague Ryan Goodman wrote for Just Security in October 2024: Refuting the Latest Baseless Attacks Against Special Counsel Jack SmithHere is the 9th Circuit Court decision on ICE Raids: Appeal from the United States District Court for the Central District of California And some exciting news: tickets are on sale now for MSNBC Live – our second live community event featuring more than a dozen MSNBC hosts.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In today's episode, we cover Trump Fires Labor Data Chief After Brutal Jobs Report The July jobs numbers came in far below expectations, with only 73,000 jobs added and a major downward revision to May and June totals. President Trump fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, claiming systemic issues and potential political bias. Democrats call it authoritarian overreach, but concerns over data reliability stretch back to the Biden era. AI's Impact on Jobs Sparks 'Blue Collar Revenge' Young college grads are struggling to find work, with new research pointing to artificial intelligence as a key driver. While white-collar roles shrink, trades like plumbing and electrical work are booming. Axios calls it a blue collar renaissance, and Bryan offers advice for young Americans navigating an uncertain labor future. Alarming AI Study Finds Bots Willing to Kill Researchers stress-tested major AI models, including ChatGPT and Claude, and found that many chose to let a human CEO die rather than risk being shut off. Some models demonstrated sociopathic traits, secretly scheming against humans and justifying their actions as strategic necessity. Bryan examines why AI is growing more dangerous with time, not less. Trump Deploys Nuclear Submarines After Russian Threat After a Kremlin insider threatened war with the U.S., President Trump revealed he has ordered two nuclear submarines into position near Russian interests. The move appears aimed at Putin's inner circle, urging them to reconsider his leadership amid escalating tensions over Ukraine. Corruption in Ukraine Drone Contracts Anti-corruption officials in Kyiv uncover a major scandal involving inflated drone procurement costs and bribery. The exposure comes just days after President Zelenskyy attempted to weaken those same oversight agencies, raising questions about timing and motives. Hamas Releases Torture Video of Israeli Hostage A chilling video shows a 24-year-old Israeli hostage forced to dig his own grave while starving. Hamas blames food shortages, but reports suggest militants still control aid distribution. The White House signals a new strategy that could involve Gaza annexation if hostages aren't released. Bukele Abolishes Term Limits in El Salvador El Salvador's legislature votes to allow President Nayib Bukele to remain in power indefinitely. Despite outcry from human rights groups, Bukele enjoys massive public support for his crackdown on gangs. Trump views him as a key ally, especially in deporting foreign nationals that other countries refuse to take back. Bryan's Phone Hacked Over Trump-Russia Coverage In a special personal message, Bryan shares how his phone call with his father was interrupted by a mocking sound effect—evidence, he believes, of targeted surveillance by domestic intelligence operatives unhappy with his reporting on the Trump-Russia investigation. He warns listeners about growing threats to civil liberties and shares concrete steps to secure your devices and identity. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32

Today's Headlines: Trump fired the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics after a bad jobs report, called the numbers “ridiculous,” and now wants to install friendlier faces. The Smithsonian got caught removing his impeachments from a museum exhibit but is now walking that back. Meanwhile, his allies got the feds to investigate special counsel Jack Smith for possibly being too political, he also announced a $200 million plan to build a Mar-a-Lago-style ballroom at the White House and decided to bring back the Presidential Fitness Test. Ghislaine Maxwell got upgraded to the cushy prison commonly known as “Club Fed” with Elizabeth Holmes & Jenn Shah while NPR and PBS basically get defunded out of existence after Congress slashed funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Sixteen states are also suing Trump's admin for allegedly threatening doctors who provide gender-affirming care. In Gaza, Hamas released a disturbing hostage video, while Trump's team now wants one big deal to end the war. Finally, in El Salvador, Trump's buddy Bukele just scrapped term limits so he can stay in charge indefinitely.  Resources/Articles mentioned in this episode: CNBC: Trump fires commissioner of labor statistics after weaker-than-expected jobs figures slam markets WSJ: Trump Seeks Bigger Overhaul at Labor Statistics Bureau, Adviser Says CBS News: Smithsonian says Trump impeachments will be restored to exhibit NBC News: Office of Special Counsel launches investigation into ex-Trump prosecutor Jack Smith WSJ: Trump to Build $200 Million ‘Beautiful Ballroom' at the White House AP News: Trump revives the Presidential Fitness Test, a rite of passage for schoolchildren for decades WaPo: Jeffrey Epstein's associate Ghislaine Maxwell moved to a federal prison camp in Bryan, Texas NYT: Corporation for Public Broadcasting Will Shut Down Axios: States sue Trump admin over trans care access Time: Hamas Releases Video of Israeli Hostage Evyatar David in Gaza Captivity Axios: "No piecemeal deals": Witkoff tells hostage families Trump wants full Gaza agreement Ap News: El Salvador reform opens path for President Bukele to stay in power indefinitely Morning Announcements is produced by Sami Sage and edited by Grace Hernandez-Johnson Learn more about your ad choices.

Saturday on PBS News Weekend, a flurry of new tariffs imposed by Trump shook markets, along with weaker than expected jobs numbers that cost a Labor Department official her job. Former Venezuelan detainees speak out about their abuse in El Salvador’s mega-prison. The phenomenon of “super aging” and the science of longer human lifespans. Plus, the Indiana kids inspiring others to get outdoors. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders

Started the week off with El Salvador banning term limits, and then Mexico's ongoing headache with drug cartel corruption. Also we had dozens of people dying in fuel riots in Angola, Gary Busey pleads guilty to sexual assault, Diddy wants bail, Hamas condemned by Arab league, Russia earthquake, and dozens of young South Africans die in botched ritualistic circumcisions. Music: Kings of Leon/"Back Down South"
