OA1213 - Thomas is back for an action-packed Rapid Response Friday! This week: we compare the letter that just earned the former President of Honduras a pardon of his conviction for definitely being involved with narcotrafficking against the Trump administration's excuses for murder on the high seas of Venezuelans suspected to be involved with narcotrafficking--and if House Speaker Mike Johnson actually has a point in blaming Barack Obama for all of this. Matt then takes a quick look at Steve Bannon's petition for review of his conviction for contempt of Congress by the Supreme Court and explains how “safe third country” agreements now give ICE the power to deport asylum seekers to Central America without a hearing on their claims. Finally in today's footnote, Matt shares an incredible story from his week: an astonishing beyond-Kafkaesque legal argument the government has ordered his client to respond to that you will have to hear to believe. “Double-Tap Warfare: Should President Obama be Investigated for War Crimes?” Florida Law Review (Jan. 2017) Steve Bannon's cert petition to the U.S. Supreme Court in Bannon v.

Ingresamos a Villa Hermosa, una de las zonas más azotadas por la violencia en San Miguel Petapa, a escasos 16 kilómetros de la Ciudad de Guatemala. Es un barrio donde, por 10 años, las pandillas han ejercido un control implacable, apoderándose de las propiedades y desplazando a sus habitantes, quienes huyen para no ser asesinados. En Villa Hermosa, logramos contactar a una vecina del sector que sobrevive vendiendo ropa y zapatos usados. Por su seguridad y petición expresa, mantendremos su identidad en reserva. “Dejan las casas abandonadas” “Mire, en una casita que está por allá atrás, la cerraron, porque dijeron que sí, habían invadido. Sí, mareros, pero lograron sacar a esa gente”, cuenta la mujer de 65 años que vive en este sector de Villa Hermosa desde hace 38 años, pero asegura que los últimos 10 años la delincuencia aumentó exponencialmente. “Pónganle, pónganle que ellos se dedican a extorsionar, los mareros, extorsionar, roban las baterías de los carros”, dice. “Fíjese que ahí lo que hemos oído es que los dueños ya no pueden llegar porque los amenazan y todo. Ya dejan ahí las casitas abandonadas”, prosigue. “Porque aquí era bien tranquilo (…) Pero siempre, mire, ahorita con el temor de que viene la Navidad, va uno a comprar con aquel temor de que le quiten a uno cualquier cosa, los centavitos, cuando uno va a comprar”, afirma. Otra ex vecina de Villa Hermosa, quien se fue del lugar hace años debido a la delincuencia, cuenta su experiencia. Ella también prefiere mantenerse en el anonimato: “Los que estamos más vulnerables acá somos los que vivimos a diario la inseguridad total, tanto del Ministerio de Gobernación, del mismo Gobierno y de todas las instituciones del Estado, que serían los obligados y encargados de velar por la ciudadanía, no lo hacen, porque ellos son parte de eso también”, considera. “Transformadas en bases de operaciones” “Abandonar el hogar, como opción ante amenazas de muerte. En esos casos específicos, es mucho más fácil apropiarse de esas casas que quedan en abandono. El principal mecanismo que facilita esa usurpación es esa coacción económica que se ejerce contra la población. Económica, violenta. Las viviendas afectadas se encuentran en la mayoría de los casos en zonas marginales, marginalidad social, que por definición ya tienen limitado acceso a servicios básicos e incluso a la justicia formal, debido a esta idea de criminalización de la pobreza”, explica a RFI Ludwin Álvarez, antropólogo y consultor experto en seguridad y justicia. “Esas casas que están ubicadas en zonas de alta densidad, como la zona 18, Mixco, Villanueva, son transformadas casi siempre en bases de operaciones, en puntos de distribución para narcotraficantes, o centros de planificación para extorsiones. Entonces, al controlar esos espacios se refuerza como la gobernanza criminal. Ahí se imponen reglas, se limita la acción policial y eso es fundamental para mantener ese flujo de ingresos ilícitos que sostienen su estructura y también ese territorio criminal”, analiza. “Actualmente la tasa nacional en Guatemala es mucho menor, es de 16 por cada 100 mil habitantes. Entonces, la respuesta institucional a ese contexto de violencia ha sido, por lo general, por lo menos en la actualidad, la gestión ordinaria de la crisis y el conflicto”, concluye Álvarez. La impunidad y la falta de Estado de derecho La fuga de 20 reos causó en la población una alarma y un miedo generalizado. Algunas personas prefieren no hablar del tema por temor a represalias por las pandillas. Entre los más afectados del área metropolitana están Ciudad de Guatemala y municipios como Mixco, Villa Nueva, Villa Canales, San Juan Sacatepéquez, San Miguel Petapa, Chinautla y Amatitlán. En dichas áreas operan con más frecuencia las maras, tanto el Barrio 18 como la Mara Salvatrucha. Según medios locales que viralizaron esta información en las últimas semanas, hay 13 mil denuncias por usurpación en el país. En ese mismo período, el Estado ejecutó 99 desalojos, es decir, solo el 0.76 % de las víctimas logró recuperar su propiedad. Según Astrid Escobedo, especialista en democracia y violencia, “las mayores causas de esto es por la falta de Estado de derecho y la falta de control, además porque los políticos se dejaron comprar por los delincuentes, son los que los eligen entonces no hay quien pueda combatirlos”. “La gente sale de su país por la violencia y están los que deben huir con sus hijos principalmente adolescentes, y si no huyen los grupos del narcotráfico los están reclutando y si no quieren ser parte de las estructuras criminales los matan”, subraya. Las estructuras criminales siguen operando a nivel nacional sin ningún problema porque las condiciones las mantienen bien fortalecidas desde hace décadas, como también la usurpación de viviendas que se ha normalizado. El objetivo final de este control territorial es mantener el flujo de ingresos ilícitos que sostienen tanto a la estructura criminal como al territorio criminal que han establecido, según expertos.

Miguel is joined by a returning guest, journalist Abraham Marquez. In this episode, we discuss ICE and the 2025 World Series champion Dodgers. Throughout the 2025 baseball season, Dodgers Chairman Mark Walter and Guggenheim Baseball Management have made headlines by first having the Dodgers team visit the Trump White House in April 2025 to honor the 2024 championship team. Additionally, the Dodgers were accused in June 2025 of allowing ICE to stage operations inside their parking lots, and most recently, in November 2025, ICE once again staged at a parking lot near Dodger Stadium the day after the 2025 Dodgers championship parade. Lastly, Guggenheim has investments in GEO Group and Palantir Technologies. We do our best to talk about it all, including the contradictions of Dodger fandom and the fallacy of ethical consumption under capitalism. Abraham Marquez is a freelance writer from Inglewood, California, and a National Association of Hispanic Journalists (NAHJ) member. He is a 2021 USC Annenberg Center for Health Journalism fellow. He's reported from Tijuana, Nicaragua, Guatemala, and Honduras, and writes about social movements, immigration, politics, and sports.He currently has a Substack at https://abemarquez.substack.com/ and is a contributor for LA Taco, The Southland and others. Links:The Dodgers had their ‘shut up and dribble' moment by Abraham Marquez L.A.

Menaces, pressions, interventions : Donald Trump et sa garde rapprochée font feu de tout bois depuis ces dernières semaines sur le continent sud-américain. « L'implication active des États-Unis dans la politique latino-américaine n'est pas nouvelle, note Le Temps à Genève. Depuis la fin de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, Washington est notamment intervenu au Guatemala, au Brésil, au Chili et au Nicaragua. À chaque fois pour y soutenir des mouvements d'extrême droite face à l'émergence de politiciens “communistes“ considérés comme contraires aux intérêts américains. » Et « les méthodes d'antan semblent bel et bien de retour, à savoir la carotte et le bâton, s'exclame le quotidien suisse. En octobre, Donald Trump prévenait les Argentins. Si le parti de Javier Milei l'emportait, les Américains soutiendraient Buenos Aires à coups de milliards. Dans le cas contraire, la manne ne tomberait pas. La stratégie est similaire au Honduras. » En effet, pointe Le Monde à Paris, « les élections générales organisées au Honduras, dimanche, ont ainsi été l'occasion d'un nouveau chantage. Le président des États-Unis ne s'est pas contenté d'appeler à voter pour le candidat représentant la droite dans ce petit pays qui compte parmi les plus violents de la région et qui est gangrené par le trafic de drogue et le crime organisé. Il a également laissé entendre qu'il mettrait fin à l'aide américaine en cas de défaite de ce dernier. » L'inquiétude du Congrès Et ça n'est pas tout, s'exclame Le Monde : « tout en insultant régulièrement le président de la Colombie, Gustavo Petro, classé à gauche, Donald Trump a également accentué sa pression sur le Venezuela en annonçant unilatéralement, samedi dernier, qu'il considérait l'espace aérien vénézuélien comme “entièrement fermé“. Cet avis de création d'une zone d'exclusion aérienne, en toute illégalité internationale, s'ajoute au déploiement de la plus importante armada dans la mer des Caraïbes depuis la crise des missiles à Cuba, en 1962. Alors que l'armée américaine multiplie les exécutions extrajudiciaires en ciblant des bateaux présentés comme utilisés par des cartels de la drogue, sans jamais en apporter la moindre preuve, cet activisme guerrier suscite une inquiétude grandissante au Congrès, y compris parmi certains élus républicains. » En effet le Washington Post le révélait il y a quelques jours : le secrétaire à la Défense, Pete Hegseth, avait ordonné de ne pas faire de quartier en septembre dernier lors de la première intervention armée contre un navire transportant de la drogue au large du Venezuela. « Tuez-les tous ! », avait-il ordonné. Une révélation, pointe le Post, qui semble « ébranler la complaisance de plusieurs républicains du Congrès qui, jusqu'ici, s'étaient tus à propos de ces attaques. Les présidents des commissions des forces armées du Sénat et de la Chambre des représentants ont promis des enquêtes. » Une grâce qui interroge Certes, poursuit le journal, « l'administration Trump insiste sur la nécessité de ces frappes pour endiguer le trafic de drogue vers les États-Unis. Mais si tel était le véritable objectif, Trump n'aurait pas annoncé vendredi dernier son intention de gracier l'ancien président hondurien Juan Orlando Hernández, condamné l'an dernier (aux États-Unis) à 45 ans de prison pour avoir contribué à l'importation d'au moins 400 tonnes de cocaïne dans le pays. Peut-être Trump pense-t-il pouvoir négocier avec les barons de la drogue, mais pas avec leurs passeurs. Quoi qu'il en soit, affirme encore le Washington Post, il doit agir dans le cadre de la loi. Bravo au Congrès de s'être enfin saisi de cette affaire. » Incohérences Commentaire du Monde : « Donald Trump ne duplique pas seulement en Amérique latine la virulence et les menaces dont il use à profusion à l'intérieur des frontières américaines envers ses adversaires politiques. Il y multiplie également les incohérences, qui rendent difficilement lisibles ses orientations politiques. » Enfin, on revient au bras-de-fer entre les États-Unis et le Venezuela avec cette analyse plutôt pessimiste de Libération à Paris. Libération pour qui « derrière les menaces de Trump, se profile le spectre d'une guerre ouverte. (…) L'armada américaine, l'espace aérien verrouillé, la menace d'opérations terrestres et l'échec des négociations font désormais planer l'ombre d'une confrontation dont personne, aujourd'hui, affirme le quotidien français, ne peut prédire l'issue. »

Join us for week 2 of Messy Miracles where our guest, Pastor Junior Gomez of Restoring the Family Church in Paramos, Guatemala gives a powerful message on Obedience & Authority: Miracles in the Mess. Miracles don't wait for perfect conditions; they follow obedience.

(NOTE regarding this episode: Ben and I both live in semi-remote areas with not the best internet connectivity, and this shows here-and-there in this episode with some audio-oddities. I am very sorry about that, but nevertheless, listeners can contextually understand Ben's points when the hiccup periodically occurs.) Dr. Ben Mattingly along with his wife, Jennifer Mattingly, PA-C, founded and own Wild Med Adventures. He is also the Founder and former Director of the Wilderness Medicine Fellowship Program at Baystate Medical Center, and former Assistant Professor at the University of Massachusetts Medical School's Department of Emergency Medicine.  Ben has a passion for the wilderness and has traveled throughout the world, including a year working in a small ER in New Zealand. With his father he's summited Mt. Ranier, Denali, and Vinson Massif in Antarctica. In 2023, he summited Everest, and completed his goal of tackling the Seven Summits. He has taught wilderness medicine while climbing the highest mountain in Mexico, and in Guatemala, he summited the highest peak in Central America. In addition to mountaineering, Ben rock climbs, scuba dives, backpacks, and is a triathlete, skier, and off-road and extreme sports enthusiast.  He served as the Team Doctor for an American Hockey League team, and has been active in wilderness medicine and medical education throughout his career. Ben was twice awarded the Outstanding Teacher of the Year by his emergency medicine residents, and he has taught wilderness medicine in over 10 countries. Boy, talk about living your life in full, Ben is the poster boy for doing so, and in service of others. We started things off with his origin story, what drew him to medicine, to specialize in emergency medicine, and then subspecialize in wilderness medicine. Don't miss this inspiring and engaging conversation with one of the greats. #wildernessmedicine #emergencymedicine #medicaleducation #entrepreneurship #mountaineering #adventuretravel #alpinism

In this deeply personal Sunday solo, Jane shares the story of her beloved Domino's sudden passing — and the extraordinary signs he sent from the other side. For long-time listeners, Domino has always been “one of the dogs under the desk,” a constant companion in the Medium Curious studio. This week, Jane opens up about his transition, the stunning validations that came through a trusted animal communicator, and the powerful reminders our pets offer us about love, grief, and what happens when they leave their bodies. Jane shares: How her journey with animal communication began The wild, specific evidence that first proved to her that pets absolutely communicate What Domino expressed about his transition in real time The moment she asked him, “What will your sign be?” How rainbows, and “Kiko” — showed up instantly Incredible synchronicities involving Guatemala, where Domino was born How her other dog, Kalea, responded (and what she said telepathically!) Why animals say humans “have death all wrong” And why pets are actually grief specialists If you're grieving a beloved pet, or supporting someone who is, this episode is full of comfort, magic, and hope.

Barry and Abigail discuss Brothers in Arms by Dire Straits and sample Wild Dog – Pale Ale and Wild Dog – Shempa Ale from Tiemann Beer in Lusaka, Zambia; Strawberry Rhubarb from New Glarus Brewing Company in New Glarus, Wisconsin; Coconut Key Lime Pie Drips and Mischievous Grin from Barn Town Brewing in West Des Moines, Iowa; and Gallo / Famosa from Cervecería Centro Americana in Guatemala City, Guatemala.Read about how the Money for Nothing music video came to be, or watch the video.We first sampled New Glarus on our season 4 Christmas episode, Christmas Beers (Straight No Chaser and Gifted Beers).Barry pointed out that Walk of Life references other songs, and Abigail compared it to American Pie by Don McLean.Abigail formally retracted a fun “fact” she had previously shared on the podcast regarding artificial banana flavoring being based on the Gros Michel banana instead of the Cavendish banana, which is the most common banana cultivar eaten today. The 2013 SciShow video where she first learned this false fact has since been edited to remove any reference to this hypothesis but points to this article that explains the hypothesis. This Hank Green video first brought the debunking of this hypothesis to Abigail's attention.We first sampled Barn Town on our season 4 episode Barntown (Phish and Barn Town Brewery).Abigail called Why Worry an “adult lullaby,” similar to Calm Down by Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons. She then entered Why Worry into the Abigail Hummel School of Speaking Smartly About Music with a comparison to Little April Shower from Bambi (1942). She also brought up Baby Genius by Eels as having instrumental similarities. Barry mentioned Rain by Hans Zimmer from Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron (2002). The “vibes” in the personnel list likely refers to the vibraphone, which could very well have produced the rain sounds in Why Worry.Abigail asked if Mischievous Grin would count as a “cream tangerine” (we have officially gone zero episodes without mentioning the White Album!).Barry had heard that the three war songs on this album were inspired by the Falklands War between Argentina and the United Kingdom that lasted for a little over two months in 1982. Abigail had always pictured the Vietnam War, partly because of the imagery in Ride Across the River, and partly because Abigail's consumption of war media was heavily influenced by The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien, a novel about the Vietnam War.While discussing The Man's Too Strong, Abigail referenced an in-character speech by comedian and professional Dungeon Master Brennan Lee Mulligan.Up next… Version 2.0 by Garbage, Abigail's annual Phone-a-Friend submission, this time with Carlo “from Canada” Sgro, the namesake of Carlo's Corner!Jingles are by our friend Pete Coe.Visit Anosmia Awareness for more information on Barry's condition.Follow Barry or Abigail on Untappd to see what we're drinking when we're not on mic!Leave us a rating or a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!Facebook | Instagram | Bluesky | YouTube | Substack | Website | Email us | Virtual Jukebox | Beer Media Group

El episodio 10 de "Esto no es normal" aborda la alarmante dificultad e, incluso, imposibilidad de caminar de manera segura y tranquila en la ciudad de Guatemala. Bajo el título "No es normal que caminar la ciudad sea una hazaña" , el programa analiza este problema como una falla sistémica, una cuestión de salud pública y un reflejo de una cultura que desvaloriza la vida del peatón.    

Today, we get to learn from Matthew Paneitz, founder and executive director of Long Way Home. This organization built Hero School, a student-built and community-built campus in San Juan Comalapa, Guatemala.Built from recycled tires and trash, the campus took 16 years to build and serves 178 students enrolled in PreK through High School. The school campus is almost complete.Matthew is also the recipient of the 2020 Sargent Shriver Award for Distinguished Humanitarian Service for his work in Guatemala. This award, presented annually by the National Peace Corps Association, honors Peace Corps volunteers who continue to contribute to humanitarian causes.Long before this award and the existence of Hero School, Matthew had an idea.An idea that needed funding, direction, and partners.How did Matthew obtain funding when he started this project?How did he develop a strategy sustaining him and the school he built with the residents of Comalapa?What is the school's curriculum, and how does it change the conversation around poverty?Let's find out. LINKSLong Way Home  - Turn Trash Into SchoolsLong Way Home Sustainability Projects (https://www.lwhomegreen.org)Help School Fight Climate Change with Green Building (Global Giving) - Giving Tuesday is December 2, 2025Watch timelapse video of recent classroom construction (Fall 2025)2020 Sargent Shriver Award for Distinguished Humanitarian ServiceEcoHab.orgLong Way Home on YouTubeLong Way Home on FacebookLong Way Home on InstagramLong Way Home on LinkedIn _______________CREDITS:Producer: Tania MarienMusic: So Far So Close by Jahzzar is licensed under a Attribution-ShareAlike License;SOLO ACOUSTIC GUITAR by Jason Shaw is licensed under a Attribution 3.0 United States License.Subscribe to Transferable Solutions, a newsletter about reimagining environmental skillsContact Us© 2019 - 2025 Talaterra Inc ABOUT:TALATERRA combines "tala" (Icelandic for "to speak" and "to talk") with "terra" (Earth)—because speaking for our planet and telling its stories is what environmental educators do.TALATERRA: to speak Earth. * TALATERRA is an affiliate of Bookshop.org.

For episode 228, we have something special in store. In Web3, we spend a lot of time talking about potential: what blockchain could unlock for climate, aid, finance, or human rights. And those conversations matter because they help shape the future.But today, I want to cut through the noise and focus on what's happening right now.All around the world, builders, nonprofits, and communities are already using crypto rails to move money faster, more transparently, and more equitably than ever before. Real people are feeling the impact. Lives are changing. And these stories often go unheard.So in this special episode, I'm sharing eight powerful clips from past conversations; moments that highlight the human stories behind the tech, and the tangible impact being made today.You'll learn:

Nancy Ng, en specialpedagog från Kalifornien, försvann mystiskt under ett yogaretreat vid den vackra sjön Atitlán i Guatemala, och hennes sista dagar är fyllda av oförklarliga händelser. Familjen kämpar mot tid och byråkrati, söker med helikoptrar, dykare och båtar, samtidigt som teorier om olycka, brott och frivilligt försvinnande växer. I detta avsnitt utforskas både Nancys liv, det gåtfulla försvinnandet och mysterierna kring vad som egentligen hände den ödesdigra dagen.Skrivet av Katarina Nyman.

Across the world, we're witnessing a transformation in how corruption operates. It's not just about individual bribery or isolated misconduct. In many places, powerful actors are reshaping state institutions themselves— weakening oversight, insulating allies from consequences, and redirecting public power toward private gain. This deeper structural transformation is often called state capture, and it has altered political systems from South Africa to Guatemala to Sri Lanka. What is this form of corruption? How does it impact human rights? How can it be countered? On this episode of the Just Security Podcast, Host Dani Schulkin is joined by Naomi Roht-Arriaza, Distinguished Professor of Law at UC Hastings and anti-corruption expert, to discuss the warning signs of this type of corruption, how the United States is showing worrying parallels, and what can be done to push back against it. Show Notes:  “Is the U.S. Becoming a Captured State?

Guatemala en Disrupción

Robert Farid KarimiThe "inbetween" is often ignored. It is also the juicy territory that this week's guest, comedian, chef, poet, educator, and activist Robert Farid Karimi has been investigating over the last couple of decades. like many of our guests Robert, who is also known as Mero Cocinero, Farid Mercury, the Peoples Chef, and even in some quarters, Betty Crocker's radical heir apparent, is not easily pegged. In the conversation that follows we explore some of the stories, ideas, and questions that animate his work. How can humor become a bridge in a conflict-ridden community? What is the role of the fool and gossip in the post truth era? What can community organizers learn from Mel Brooks and Cheech and Chong. Along the way we hear great stories and have a little fun.Delicious QuotesI feel for people who feel that they themselves are bridges because this, it's not easy work to hold, two sides of earth so that others can cross. A lot of times people they're not appreciating everything it took to keep everybody up.…we say in Spanish, "chesme", gossip. And talking about how immigrants, how we transmit the information, especially when you come from cultures, where the official news is being controlled like Iran and Guatemala, like gossip is powerful. Chesme is powerful. So, I became this bridge by valuing the words of others as truth,Humor to me was never about insulting or bringing others down. Humor for me was always, "How can you lift up the room? We've had a bad day. Why you gotta be a downer?" And I think growing up, that's why I valued it so much. That's why it became part of my toolkit.They brought me in to General Mills, …and had me cooking where the Betty Crocker kitchen ladies cook. They stayed. The women who had worked all day stayed because they wanted to have a good time and laugh. My mother still says that's my best gig I've ever had cause I'm at the home of freaking Betty Crocker.I changed Acting One so that it would incorporate play. I want them to start seeing their bodies as this thing, that's taking it all in and that they are not just actors. They are not just performers they are in the in-between. They are storytellers. And to make these stories, they need to understand their relationship to the system of life. And the final of the classes, they get to make fun of the class. They get to use all the skills to make fun of anything I've done, because the rationale is for me, humor is a great way to show that because you got to know what you know, to make fun of it.I couldn't just walk into a community and go, “I'm going to save you all because I'm a person of color. Who's funny.” No. I had to go back to the kid that was listening, ...to the folks in the community. ..Then I could see how I could be of service.Notable MentionsMero Cocinero, Farid Mercury, the Peoples Chef: Just three of Mr. Karimi's many alter egos.Change the Story / Change the World: This podcast, a Chronicle of Art & Community TransformationAfrika Bambaataa: Lance Taylor (born in April 17, 1957), also known as Afrika Bambaataa (/ˌæfrɪkə...

On this episode of Flippin' the Switch, we highlight how United Way of Onslow County shows what happens when generosity works like infrastructure—steady, practical, and built to last. Raquel Painter joins us to share how small, consistent acts can have a real impact: students are fed through the CHEW program, families gain access to fresh produce, and neighbors move from crisis to stable housing with wraparound support.Raquel walks us through their model—funding vetted nonprofits, coordinating a volunteer network that runs smoothly, and expanding food access through a community garden that's now growing into plans for a 28-acre farm. That future farm will supply disaster relief hubs and help the community learn where to turn long before an emergency hits.We also dive into their transitional housing project: 111 units designed with on-site services for therapy, substance-use support, documentation, banking, and job pathways that help people rebuild long-term. United Way's reentry efforts show what's possible when barriers come down.And in a rapid-fire segment, Joe—our lineman preparing to join NRECA International in Guatemala—reminds us how technical skills can become life-changing service. Bringing electricity to a village opens doors in education, health, and opportunity.Want to help?

This missions-focused panel emphasizes that God has written Himself into humanity's story through Christ, and now the church is called to help others discover this truth. Using C.S. Lewis's illustration of Macbeth and Shakespeare, Pastor Tom Messer explains that we could never know God unless He revealed Himself to us—which He did through the incarnation. The sermon features testimonies from multiple missionaries, including Ed Gibson (53 years in missions), Jeff and Deanne Duvall (Ecuador), and Mackenzie Beamer (heading to Scotland), highlighting Trinity's rich missions heritage. The central message is that missions isn't optional—it's the heartbeat of the church's purpose. Every believer is called to participate through praying, giving, sending, and going. The church celebrates strategic partnerships in Togo (working toward 190,000 disciples by 2030), Guatemala, Guyana, and other nations, emphasizing that the strength of a church isn't measured by attendance but by how many people it sends out to advance the gospel.

Today on the show, NPR immigration reporter Jasmine Garsd introduces us to two families in Washington, D.C.. One has made the difficult decision to set up "emergency guardianship" for their son, in the case that the parents are deported to Guatemala. The other has agreed to take that son in, should anything happen. It's the second part in Jasmine's reporting series looking into how immigrant families are preparing for the worst under the Trump administration's current immigration crackdown.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

400 episodes down and some big changes coming.  It's been almost 9 full years since I started this little show and I'm amazed at the journey that it's accompanied me on, from my apprenticeship in bamboo building in Guatemala, to starting a homestead, leaving it to move to Spain just ahead of the pandemic, and where I am now, putting down roots in central Catalunya on my little farm with my partner Alba.  This is hardly then end though. despite a tough year where I've even considered shutting down the show, some new opportunities have come up that will take this podcast in a new direction.  I would love for you to be a part of how the show takes a new shape in the coming year. Please take the time to fill in the short survey here if you'd like to guide our new direction.  And of course, a sincere thank you to all of you who've supported this podcast and it's growth over 9 years. There's no way I would have persisted this long without you. 

Read Ralph's review here: https://thelastdvd.com/land-of-wolves/   It's become a joke, a rather well-worn one by now, to say that Donald Trump has been getting ideas about fighting the war on drugs from Denis Villeneuve's film Sicario. That film, and its vastly inferior sequel, depicted clandestine paramilitary operations that go beyond usual police measures used by the US government agencies against the Mexican drug cartels in the border region. In the real world, the American state has accelerated the para-militarisation of the war against the drug cartels.   Earlier this year, Trump ordered the State Department to declare the Latin American drug cartels as “terrorist organisations.” In August, Trump signed a directive permitting the Pentagon to use military force against those cartels. Mexico is the target most people will have in mind. But it also included Venezuela, Guatemala, and El-Salvador.   Check out our new bi-weekly series, "The Crisis Papers" here: https://www.patreon.com/bitterlakepresents/shop   Thank you guys again for taking the time to check this out.

From the BBC World Service: Donald Trump is set to cut import taxes on products like coffee, bananas, and beef as part of trade agreements with four Latin American countries, aimed at easing food prices. A tariff of 10% will stay on most goods from Guatemala, Argentina, and El Salvador, as will a 15% tax on imports from Ecuador. But staples like coffee and bananas, which the U.S. can't produce enough of, will be exempt.
