Honduras elegirá el próximo 30 de noviembre a su nuevo presidente, alcaldes, diputados y representantes ante el Parlamento Centroamericano. La campaña ha estado marcada por acusaciones mutuas de fraude entre los candidatos, mientras los ciudadanos esperan que las élites políticas propongan soluciones concretas a la inseguridad, la corrupción y la pobreza. Hoy, en Escala en París, nos acompaña el experto Daniel Vásquez para analizar el panorama político a puertas de las elecciones generales.

Upcoming Election in Honduras. Mary Anastasia O'Grady discusses Honduran fears that the current left-wing party, allied with Venezuela and Cuba, will attempt to steal the upcoming election. This follows a playbook where elected leaders consolidate power by seizing control of institutions like the military and courts to avoid subsequent fair elections. The OAS and US State Department have issued warnings against election theft. Guest: Mary Anastasia O'Grady. 1890

Anatol Lieven discusses a leaked Ukraine peace plan involving potential US legal recognition of Russian annexation of Donbass and Crimea, which would pave the way for lifting US sanctions. The plan requires Ukraine to yield the remaining Donbass slice and accept limits on its army size, although Ukraine is not required to formally agree. Guest: Anatol Lieven. 915-930 continued 930-945 Professor George Is Right: Principle Sustains American Conservatism. Peter Berkowitz reviews Professor Robert George's assertion that American conservatism's core principle is the profound, inherent, and equal dignity of each human family member. George insisted that the movement must unequivocally reject white supremacists and anti-Semites, a rebuke directed at the Heritage Foundation president's defense of Tucker Carlson. This mirrors William F. Buckley's efforts to purge extremism from conservatism. Guest: Peter Berkowitz. 945-1000 US Adds 119,000 Jobs in September, but Unemployment Hits Four-Year Peak. Chris Regal discusses consumer liquidity challenges alongside the early impacts of AI on the workforce.

Michael Bernstam analyzes Russia's economic stagnation due to war expenditure and shortages, leading the Kremlin to raise taxes, including the VAT, to close the budget gap. Sanctions are biting deep, forcing Russia to offer huge discounts—up to $38 per barrel—to its primary oil customers: India, China, and Turkey. Guest: Michael Bernstam. 1030-1045 Launch of Blue Origin's New Glenn Rocket. Eric Berger describes the successful second launch and booster landing of Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket as thrilling and a huge step forward.

On today's episode, we're talking with investigative journalist Ross Halperin about his new book Bear Witness: The Pursuit of Justice in a Violent Land. Ross takes us on a fascinating journey from academic research on impunity—the unsolved homicides plaguing American cities—to Honduras, where he discovers an unexpected solution. We dig into why the US solve rate for murders hovers around 60% compared to over 90% in other wealthy democracies, and spoiler alert: it's not about more surveillance or militarization. The real issue is witness testimony, and that requires trust. Ross introduces us to Kurt and Carlos, whose charity work proves that community trust, built through years of genuine service and investment, is the key to bridging the gap between communities and law enforcement. We talk about how faith animates their work without being preachy, the humility required to stay open to criticism, and why top-down solutions often miss what actually moves people to speak up. It's a conversation about what it means to bear witness—not just to tell a story, but to show up and be trusted. You can WATCH the conversation on YouTube Ross Halperin is an investigative journalist and author of Bear Witness: The Pursuit of Justice in a Violent Land. A Harvard University graduate, he worked on Wall Street before transitioning to research on criminal justice, where he worked under Mark A.R. Kleiman, one of the world's leading criminal-justice scholars. His interest in unsolved homicides and systemic violence grew from this research, which revealed that the United States has dramatically lower murder solve rates than comparable wealthy democracies. That research led Halperin to a presentation by Kurt Biehl at a summit organized by criminologist David Kennedy, sparking a years-long investigation into how one community in Central America tackled violence through trust-building and faith. Bear Witness is the result of his embedded reporting in Honduras, exploring how real change happens not through top-down mandates, but through patient commitment to community relationships. Halperin's own commitment to community building is evident in his work closer to home as well—he led a campaign to reconstruct the library in his hometown, reflecting his belief in the power of institutions and gathering spaces. ⁠UPCOMING ONLINE ADVENT CLASS w/ Diana Butler Bass⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join us for a transformative four-week Advent journey exploring how the four gospels speak their own revolutionary word against empire—both in their ancient context under Roman occupation and for our contemporary world shaped by capitalism, militarism, and nationalism.  This course invites you into an alternative calendar and rhythm.

El próximo 30 de noviembre Honduras celebra elecciones generales para elegir a un nuevo presidente, diputados, representantes del Parlamento Centroamericano y alcaldes. La campaña ha estado marcada por ataques mutuos de los candidatos que se acusan de promover el fraude, mientras los hondureños esperan de sus élites políticas medidas para luchar contra la inseguridad, la corrupción y la pobreza. "Los hondureños quieren votar pese a estar cansados de la política", analiza para RFI el experto Daniel Vásquez.  Seis millones y medio de hondureños están llamados a ir a las urnas el próximo 30 de noviembre. Entre los candidatos presidenciales para sustituir a Xiomara Castro, primera mujer presidenta de Honduras, destacan tres con posibilidades, según las encuestas. Se trata de la oficialista Rixi Moncada (Libre), el conservador Nasry Asfura (Partido Nacional) y Salvador Nasralla (Partido Liberal). Los presidentes se eligen en una sola vuelta por mayoría simple.  "Las encuestas dan como favorito a Salvador Nasralla, pese a que hay algunas encuestas que favorecen a la candidata del oficialismo", explica Daniel Vásquez, experto hondureño afincado en Francia, miembro del Centro de Estudios Mexicanos y Centroamericanos del CNRS, el Centro Nacional de Investigación Científica.  Pero para este experto en procesos políticos y crisis democráticas, lo preocupante en esta votación es "la incapacidad del país para construir instituciones electorales sólidas". "No contamos con un árbitro imparcial y esto complica el proceso y las expectativas de las personas", afirma refiriéndose al Consejo Nacional Electoral. Vásquez teme que el día después de los comicios se abra una crisis muy difícil si no se reconocen los resultados, sean los que sean. "Lo importante será ver la actitud de las Fuerzas Armadas", asegura Vásquez. Acusaciones mutuas de "fraude" entre los candidatos  El proceso electoral se desarrolla en medio de una fuerte polarización por acciones de la fiscalía, afín al gobierno de izquierda, para investigar a autoridades electorales de oposición, y denuncias cruzadas de "fraude" entre los principales candidatos presidenciales.  "El Consejo Nacional Electoral funciona según una repartición matemática, está dividido entre los tres principales partidos políticos", explica Vásquez, quien explica que la actual situación tiene que ver, en parte, con los problemas que se registraron durante las primarias de marzo de 2025 para escoger a los candidatos.  Cambio de empresa para transportar las urnas  "Lo que ocurrió es que no llegaron a tiempo las papeletas electorales, se abrió una crisis que todavía no se ha cerrado; incluso hubo acusaciones de boicot electoral a las personas que tenían que transportar el material. Este domingo se eligió a una nueva empresa para llevar el material electoral, pero los hondureños pueden preguntarse si realmente van a tener una capacidad para organizar las elecciones", explica el experto hondureño, quien también forma parte del Laboratorio de Etnología y Sociología comparativa en la Universidad de Nanterre, en las afueras de París, donde realiza una tesis sobre religión y política.    Este pequeño país de Centroamérica de poco más de 10 millones de habitantes todavía arrastra las secuelas del golpe de Estado de 2009 contra el entonces presidente Manuel Zelaya, esposo de la actual mandataria, Xiomara Castro, y hombre fuerte del Partido Libre (Libertad y Refundación). Para Vásquez, Honduras vive "una crisis política permanente (...) con una población que ha pasado de polarización en polarización". Aun así, "los hondureños quieren votar, pese a estar cansados de la política", analiza para RFI. Rixi Moncada o el lastre del balance a medias tintas de Castro  Abogada, docente y política hondureña, Rixi Moncada ha sido ministra de Trabajo, Finanzas y Defensa de Xiomara Castro. Tiene una amplia experiencia y cuenta con el respaldo dentro de Libre. "El problema es que, de alguna manera, ella lleva sobre sus espaldas todo el desgaste que ha conocido este gobierno", analiza Daniel Vásquez, quien resalta el incumplimiento de una de las promesas de Castro: no se pudo instaurar una comisión contra la impunidad y la corrupción.  Por otro lado, Moncada puede sufrir de las acusaciones de nepotismo hacia el gobierno. Pero tal vez lo más grave, dice Vásquez, sean las acusaciones de los presuntos vínculos con el narcotráfico. "En 2023 se divulgó un narcovideo de 2013 en el que se ve al cuñado de la presidenta, hermano de Manuel Zelaya, Carlos Zelaya, negociando con capos de la banda criminal Los Cachiros", explica. Un video que fue divulgado por InSight Crime y otros medios.  "¿Puede uno confiar en un gobierno cuando hay pruebas tajantes de que se ha sentado a negociar dinero con narcotraficantes confesos?", se pregunta Vásquez.  Nasry Asrufa, la gestión de Tegucigalpa le puede pasar factura Moncada tendrá que medirse con Asrufa, empresario y el candidato del Partido Nacional. Fue alcalde de Tegucigalpa, la capital, de 2014 a 2022 y ha enfrentado acusaciones de corrupción en el manejo de los fondos públicos. "Muchos capitalinos pueden preguntarse sobre el atrevimiento de que se presente por la opacidad que hubo con el manejo de fondos públicos", subraya el experto. Sin embargo, señala que su partido, el Partido Nacional, que gobernó el país entre 2010 y 2022, "está muy bien estructurado, con un arraigo territorial y una red clientelar que le permite tener mucha fuerza", precisa.  Nasralla aspira a convertirse en una mezcla entre Milei y Bukele  Este viejo conocido se presenta como un estandarte de la renovación, a pesar de que ya lleva cuatro candidaturas y que no ha dudado en apoyar a Xiomara Castro en el inicio de su mandato y luego presentarse como su acérrimo opositor.  "Ha estado yendo y viniendo, construyendo alianzas con diferentes actores, fue clave para la victoria de Castro en 2021; cabe preguntarse cómo es que ahora se presenta por el Partido Liberal (...) Estas son las sorpresas que presenta la política hondureña", apunta.  "Es una especie de imitador de Bukele y Milei", agrega.  La inseguridad, principal preocupación de los hondureños Muchos hondureños se miran en el espejo del país vecino, El Salvador, donde el presidente Nayib Bukele, con su política de mano dura y negociación con las pandillas, ha conseguido reducir el nivel de homicidios. Honduras es uno de los países más violentos de Latinoamérica y el Caribe.  "Es cierto que ha habido una reducción en las tasas de homicidio de 38 por cada 100.000 habitantes en 2022 a 27 por cada 100.000 habitantes en 2024, lo que no es poca cosa. Pero también es cierto que los niveles de extorsión siguen aumentando", precisa. Y lamenta que el estado de excepción que se ha prorrogado de manera constante desde diciembre de 2022 sea "una medida retórica".  #EscalaenParís también está en redes sociales.

When feds convicted Honduran cocaine kingpin Juan Matta Ballesteros in 1990, authorities hoped it would spell an end to the Central American nation's growing reputation as a narco state — a status that had caused havoc across the region. Those hopes were dashed almost immediately — and not just by Matta's family, who carried on his legacy of cartel wheeler-dealing. In the jungles of eastern Honduras, another power was on the rise, forging ties with crooked cops and banking magnates. The Cachiros were a family of cattle rustlers, whose rural smarts and ruthlessness would make them some of the most unlikely leaders in cartel history. But they would fall almost as quickly as they had risen, as US agents went on a rampage. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

For our final episode of Season 9, we are humbled to welcome Joseph Cardinal Tobin, Archbishop of Newark, NJ. Cardinal Tobin talks about growing up in a thriving Catholic parish in Detroit, MI, and later serving there as a Redemptorist priest when the parish had become increasingly ethnically diverse. He offers his sharp critiques of the campaign of mass deportation that runs counter to the Biblical call to welcome the stranger. He talks about Pope Francis, whose concern for migrants grew from listening to the needs of the Church. Cardinal Tobin participated in the conclave to elect Pope Leo, so he shares from that remarkable experience, and the efforts of all the Cardinals to listen to the Holy Spirit.Brian and Joe share stories about the importance of listening. Joe talks about a recent experience listening to Kevin and Aidéy, a migrant couple in northern Mexico going through some relationship struggles. As they live in separate shelters, they have been sending handwritten notes back and forth and reflecting on the importance of listening to one another to maintain a healthy relationship. Brian shares that story of Brianna, a young girl from Honduras, who taught him a beautiful lesson in the value of listening without presumption or judgment, but with an open heart. Her small gesture during Mass reminds us why Jesus called children among the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.Thank you for joining us for this season, and blessings as we approach the end of the year. We will be back with a new season in early 2026.

#ConexiónUNAH En este episodio abordamos temas clave que marcan la agenda universitaria y nacional:

Dr. Kurt Ver Beek In this episode of the Nonprofit Leadership podcast, host Dr. Rob Harter sits down with Dr. Kurt Ver Beek — longtime sociologist, adjunct professor at Calvin University, and co‑founder of the Honduran‑based nonprofit Association for a More Just Society (ASJ). Kurt has lived in Honduras for 30 + years and helps lead ASJ's mission of advancing justice through structural reform rather than simply charity. Their discussion explores how nonprofits can transition from short‑term relief approaches to tackling systemic issues, particularly in contexts of high violence, corruption, and migration. Key Topics Include: The motivation behind founding ASJ in Honduras and shifting focus from relief to justice‑oriented work. The four‑part strategy ASJ employs: investigation, alliance building, communications, and lobbying/incidence. Real‑world examples from Honduras: tackling police corruption, reducing homicide rates, auditing government institutions. Navigating donor expectations when working on long‑term systemic change rather than immediate tangible outcomes. Insights on the migration‑to‑the‑U.S. debate: root causes in origin countries like Honduras, and how systems reform might reduce migration pressures. Reflections on international aid: what works, what doesn't, and how U.S. federal funding cuts are reshaping NGOs' strategies. The distinction between charity (relief), development (capacity building) and justice (systemic transformation) — and why justice work is harder, riskier, but essential.

This podcast episode delves into the profound and transformative experiences of our mission team during their recent journey to Honduras. The primary focus is on the personal growth and spiritual revelations encountered by the participants, particularly emphasizing the realization that the mission was not solely about aiding others, but rather a significant opportunity for self-discovery and healing. As we engage in dialogues with various team members, we explore their individual stories, hurdles faced prior to the trip, and the unexpected blessings that unfolded throughout their time in Honduras. The discussions reveal the depth of connection formed among team members, as well as the meaningful interactions with the local community, fostering a sense of unity and shared purpose. Ultimately, this episode serves as an invitation for listeners to reflect on their own lives and consider the importance of stepping outside their comfort zones to embrace new experiences that can lead to profound personal and spiritual growth.Takeaways: During the Honduras mission trip, we learned that personal struggles can resonate deeply with others, transcending cultural barriers and fostering genuine connections. The experience emphasized the importance of community and support, highlighting that vulnerability can lead to profound healing and understanding among individuals. Our mission was not merely about providing aid, but about witnessing and participating in the ongoing work that God is already doing in the lives of others. The trip reinforced the significance of sharing our testimonies, as they can empower and encourage those who feel isolated in their struggles. We discovered that true service involves building relationships rather than focusing solely on meeting physical needs, which can often lead to a more impactful ministry. Through our interactions, we recognized the need to be intentional in our outreach efforts, fostering a culture of love and support within our community.

JONAH WAS a vindictive man who cared more about a plant than he did for the 120,000 people of Nineveh. Reading the short Book of Jonah aloud makes it clear that the story is as much about Jonah's desire for the destruction of Nineveh as it is about God's mercy and desire that all people would repent and return to Him. Not only did Jonah try to run away from God, but when he finally did proclaim God's imminent judgment on the great city (reluctantly), he was so upset that God spared the city that Jonah asked God to kill him! This is one of those sections of the Bible that would surely have been rewritten to show Jonah in a better light if the text had been changed over the years—although we note that the time given the Ninevites to repent was changed from three days to forty between the time of the Septuagint translation (around 200 BC) and the Masoretic text on which our English Old Testament is based (about 900 AD). This week's question: What do we make of Jeremiah 30:6 and the description of men of Israel in such distress they're like women in childbirth? Sharon's niece, Sarah Sachleben, has been diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer, and the medical bills are piling up. If you are led to help, please go to GilbertHouse.org/hopeforsarah.

Kaum Steuern, kaum Regulierungen, maximale Forschungsfreiheit - auf einer honduranischen Insel in der Karibik entsteht eine Privatstadt. In Próspera können Firmen ihren eigenen Rechtsrahmen wählen. Das zieht Start-Ups und Libertäre aus aller Welt an, auch Milliardäre aus dem Silicon Valley. «Ich habe sieben Chips implantiert», sagt US-Amerikaner Rich Lee. «Hier in der Hand, das ist meine Kreditkarte, damit kann ich bargeldlos an der Kasse bezahlen.» Das löse viele schräge Blicke aus, erzählt der 47-jährige lachend. Rich Lee glaubt, dass der menschliche Körper aktiv verbessert werden müsse. «Unsere Sinne und Fähigkeiten müssen erweitert werden, egal, ob durch Gentherapie oder Cyborg-Implantate.» Er probiert seine Forschungsergebnisse gleich an sich selber aus. Das ist möglich in Próspera. Hier gibt es keine Gesundheitsbehörde und keine Ethikkommission. Wer ein Unternehmen registriert, braucht lediglich einen Versicherer, der bereit ist, das Risiko zu übernehmen. Bezahlen kann man in Bitcoin. Alles in privater Hand. Próspera gilt als Vorzeigemodell in der sogenannten Privatstadtbewegung, die durch Geld und Macht aus dem Silicon Valley vorangetrieben wird. Libertäre Milliardäre wie Paypal-Gründer Peter Thiel oder Brian Armstrong, der Gründer von Coinbase, investieren darin. Der Staat Honduras, zu dem die Karibikinsel mit Próspera gehört, hat das Nachsehen.

Dans ses récits de voyage comme dans ses romans, l'autrice naturaliste française a toujours préféré les chemins de traverse et les replis du territoire, pour aller chercher l'âme des lieux et des peuples.  Quand elle était petite, Clara Arnaud raconte avoir longtemps eu sur sa table de chevet un globe lumineux, éclairant ses rêves d'ailleurs comme ses veillées nocturnes à bouquiner en cachette de ses parents. Depuis, à 38 ans, l'écrivaine française a déjà publié plusieurs récits de voyage et trois romans, le dernier «Et vous passerez comme des vents fous» ayant reçu de nombreuses distinctions et rencontré le succès en France.  Rencontrer les lieux et ceux qui les peuplent, en livrer l'esprit, une boussole et un carnet de notes en poche, c'est ce qui semble avoir toujours guidé l'autrice nomade, dans ses écrits à mots pesés, comme dans ses voyages à pas lents, toujours à pied et souvent accompagnée d'un cheval. Après des échappées kirghizes, des itinérances en Chine avec deux chevaux, dans le Caucase aussi, ou après deux ans d'expatriation en République Démocratique du Congo, puis au Honduras, Clara Arnaud a désormais posé ses valises dans le Couserans, dans les Pyrénées ariégeoises, en France. C'est de là qu'elle a puisé l'inspiration pour écrire son dernier roman peuplé d'ours et de bergers qui vient questionner notre rapport au sauvage, dans une écriture à fleur de peau et de territoire. Consciente qu'il n'y a pas qu'un seul monde, Clara Arnaud intercède à sa manière, se plaçant aux coutures des mondes animal, végétal ou humain reliés souvent entre eux sans le savoir. Ce faisant, elle arpente, débusque et interroge nos géographies sensibles, en mettant le corps en mouvement, parfois à l'épreuve, dans des espaces grands et sauvages de préférence.  Une rencontre initialement diffusée en novembre 2024.

WE'RE BACK from our Israel tour, where we saw the red heifers that have caused such a stir. Four of the heifers are being kept at Shiloh. On July 1, the Temple Institute sacrificed and burned one of the five that had been brought to Israel in September of 2022 in what's been described as a trial run. There have been some reports that this was the actual sacrifice required to prepare the way for the Third Temple, which prompted the Temple Institute to issue a press release this week denying that the ritual in July was kosher. However, it's our belief that the Temple Institute doesn't actually intend to build a Third Temple. Its fundraising efforts seem to be funneled into political causes rather than dedicated to its stated goal of making the Temple a reality. We also discuss the reality of spiritual warfare, which is now complicated by the role of AI chatbots, and how so many mainline denominations have drained the Bible of its supernatural content.

In der Privatstadt Próspera auf einer honduranischen Insel in der Karibik experimentieren Unternehmen mit Langlebigkeit, KI oder mit Chipimplantaten. Das ist möglich, weil hier Firmen kaum reguliert werden. Anna Lemmenmeier hat in Próspera den libertären Geist der Privatstadtpioniere eingefangen.

         Honduras is holding a high-stakes, single-round election where the outcome could determine if the country returns to alignment with Taiwan or shifts to China. Election observers noted improper pressure and concerns about meddling by the ruling Libre Party. Separately, Argentina's economy under Milei is strengthening, backed by a significant US currency swap and political support. Guest: Evan Ellis. 3/4

Ce jeudi 13 novembre 2025 marque les 10 ans des attentats de Paris et de Saint-Denis. Le Stade de France, des terrasses de bars et la salle de concert du Bataclan avaient été pris pour cible par des terroristes se revendiquant du groupe État islamique. 132 personnes ont été tuées, dont des étrangers, comme Luis Felipe Zschoche Valle, un Chilien de 33 ans. Sa famille vient tous les ans à Paris honorer sa mémoire. Sa famille s'est confiée à RFI. La mère de Luis Felipe, Nancy Valle, a assisté aux cérémonies de ce jeudi 13 novembre 2025, comme les années précédentes. «Pour moi, c'est une année comme les autres», expliquait-elle au micro de Marine de La Moissonnière, quelques heures plus tôt. «Dix ans, ce n'est rien parce que l'absence est toujours là. Ce sont dix années de jours vides, de silences éloquents. Tous les jours, je pense à mon fils», poursuit-elle. «Avec le temps, ma peine s'est transformée. C'est une douleur plus apaisée : je ne ressens plus de rage, d'impuissance, de sentiment d'échec de n'avoir pas réussi à protéger mon enfant. Il n'y a plus rien à faire que se souvenir de lui, célébrer sa vie et honorer sa mémoire. Et c'est très important parce que ça peut permettre que cela ne se reproduise plus jamais», souligne-t-elle. «Chaque année, quand approche la date du 13 novembre, cette blessure qui est en train de cicatriser s'ouvre à nouveau.» Après avoir assisté aux cérémonies d'hommages, elle partira pour Gap où son fils est enterré. «C'est mon rituel, chaque année. Puis chaque fois, quand je repars pour le Chili, j'ai l'impression de l'abandonner, explique-t-elle, très émue. Ça me fait du bien d'être à Paris et à Gap, avec des gens qui ont vécu la même chose que moi. On se réconforte entre nous. Au Chili, ma famille et moi, on est seules avec notre douleur. Je n'ai personne avec qui parler de tout ça. Mais ici en France, si. Et ça fait du bien.» Le procès qui s'est tenu en 2021 et 2022 a aussi contribué à apaiser cette douleur. «Avant le procès, je n'existais pas pour la justice : personne ne nous a prévenues de la tenue du procès. On l'a su grâce à des journalistes de Radio France Internationale qui nous ont aussi expliqué comment y participer», se remémore Nancy Valle. «Ce procès m'a aidée. Il a été comme une reconstruction judiciaire. Cela m'a un peu apaisée de savoir que la justice avait fait son travail. C'est une satisfaction de savoir que les accusés ont été jugés et condamnés», conclut-elle.   Haïti : la sécurité des ports mise en cause par les États-Unis La garde-côtière américaine a déterminé que «le gouvernement haïtien ne mettait pas en œuvre de manière substantielle le Code international pour la sûreté des navires et des installations portuaires au niveau national et au niveau des installations portuaires» et ne «constatait pas la mise en place de mesures de sécurité efficaces», peut-on lire dans une lettre transmise au gouvernement haïtien via l'ambassade des États-Unis en Haïti, rapporte Le Nouvelliste, mercredi 12 novembre 2025. Tirs, kidnappings, à quai ou en mer, «depuis des mois, les ports et des navires sont attaqués par les gangs», ajoute son rédacteur en chef, Frantz Duval, alors que «Haïti importe par voie maritime plus de 80% de ses biens de consommation», souligne-t-il.    Le plus long shutdown de l'histoire des États-Unis s'achève Après plus de 40 jours de paralysie budgétaire, les fonctionnaires vont de nouveau pouvoir être payés et les programmes d'aides sociales vont reprendre, notamment l'aide alimentaire SNAP. Certains élus démocrates ont voté contre la ligne de leur parti, qui exigeait la prolongation des aides publiques pour le système d'assurance santé Obamacare. «Stupidity never shuts down» («La stupidité ne s'arrête jamais»), ce titre assassin et ce jeu de mots ont été choisis par le Wall Street Journal pour son éditorial du jour. Le quotidien économique se moque des démocrates qui ont cru que, plus la paralysie budgétaire durerait, plus ils auraient de chance d'obtenir la prolongation de l'Obamacare. Ce n'était «pas la stratégie la plus maline», estime le quotidien. Le quotidien Detroit Free Press est plus clément : les élus démocrates qui ont voté avec les républicains pour mettre fin au shutdown le plus long de l'histoire du pays «avaient des arguments entendables», lit-on dans une tribune publiée sur le site de ce média du Michigan. Par exemple, celui de considérer que les citoyens touchés par la paralysie budgétaire avaient «assez souffert». «Qu'auriez-vous fait à leur place ?», interroge l'auteur, qui s'adresse aux électeurs états-uniens. À ses yeux, il reste encore une chance de prolonger Obamacare.   Campagne électorale tendue au Honduras Le Honduras se prépare à voter pour choisir son nouveau ou sa nouvelle présidente, le 30 novembre 2025. La campagne se déroule dans un climat de «crispation» selon El Heraldo, à Tegucigalpa. La majorité sortante de gauche et l'opposition de droite s'accusent mutuellement de vouloir attenter contre la transparence et la sincérité du vote. D'un côté, une enquête a été ouverte contre un député de droite ou encore contre une membre de l'autorité électorale, soupçonnés d'avoir voulu organiser une fraude. De l'autre, le gouvernement de gauche est particulièrement critiqué après avoir annoncé que l'armée sera chargée de réaliser un décompte parallèle des voix. Les candidats de l'opposition ont appelé ce mercredi 12 novembre 2025 à «protéger» l'intégrité du processus électoral. Même les États-Unis ont décidé de s'en mêler. Le secrétaire d'État adjoint du gouvernement Trump, Christopher Landau, prévient que Washington «suit de près le processus électoral», rapporte le journal La Tribuna. Le gouvernement états-unien «exhorte les autorités [...] à respecter les lois et la Constitution», faute de quoi il «réagira rapidement», rapporte encore le média hondurien, qui y voit un «avertissement» de la part du grand voisin régional. El Heraldo nuance tout de même cette menace et pointe du doigt la «naïveté de l'opposition», qui insinue, selon le journal, que les États-Unis pourraient envahir le Honduras en cas de victoire de la majorité sortante de gauche. La présidente Xiomara Castro n'échappe pas aux critiques, cette fois-ci dans La Prensa, dont un des éditorialistes accuse la dirigeante d'attiser les divisions au sein de la société hondurienne.   Dans les Caraïbes françaises... Le saviez-vous ? La Martinique est la région de France où l'on compte le plus de… personnes âgées, nous raconte Benoît Ferrand, de La 1ère.

Austin and Amit get together for a full preview of a high-stakes set of World Cup Qualifiers. First, the guys try to make sense of CONCACAF, where big favorites Panama & Costa Rica face pressure from upstarts like Suriname, Honduras, and Guatemala. In UEFA, drama looks to center around a big Denmark-Scotland matchup while the jostling for the final playoff spots should provide plenty of drama. The show closes out with a look at the playoffs in Africa and Asia, where tickets to the ICP Last Chance Saloon hang in the balance.

Time for our last installment of live interviews from Coffee Fest 2025. This time from Orlando, FL USA! We are talking with four awesome professionals about everything from training and tasting, Florida coffee culture and barista work - to career dreams coming true through hard work and faith, and empowering your baristas with distributed management!  First we are talking with Claudio Martinez! For Claudio, coffee has never been just a drink, it is part of his soul, rooted in his family's 70-year heritage in Honduras. That connection was reignited in Thessaloniki, Greece, where, under the mentorship of Tony Sebastian of I Heart Coffee Roasters, he embraced the beauty, tradition, and community that coffee represents. His first hands-on experience came in a small drive-through coffee shop in Ellendale, North Dakota, owned by a close friend. As a young barista, Claudio discovered the joy of serving others one cup at a time. That spark guided him forward, leading to opportunities with global icons such as Lavazza, where he worked as a trainer and educator, and later with List + Beisler, where he shared exceptional coffees as a green trader with roasters across the country. Each step nurtured his gratitude and reinforced his belief in coffee as a bridge between cultures and communities. Today, as the driving force behind Golden Bush Coffee, Claudio channels that lifelong passion into supporting food and beverage communities throughout Florida and beyond. His mission is grounded in humility and purpose, guided by the belief that coffee is never just about what's in the cup—it is about people, stories, and the connections it creates.

Vanessa Jaramillo is the Regional Events & Operations Coordinator for Florida Coffee Culture, where she helps connect and celebrate the people behind Florida's growing specialty coffee scene. As a Colombian-American, Vanessa's connection to coffee began long before she became a barista — she visited origin before ever working behind a bar. After discovering specialty coffee in Australia during her gap year, she returned to Florida with a deep passion for community and storytelling. With three years in the coffee industry, Vanessa has immersed herself in every part of the craft — from cuppings and throwdowns to competitions and community events. She's driven by the belief that coffee is a universal connector that brings people together from all walks of life.

En Honduras, el próximo 30 de noviembre, se renovarán el Legislativo y la Presidencia. Por un lado, el oficialismo y los opositores se acusan mutuamente de preparar un fraude electoral, y por el otro, la Fiscalía le está quitando autonomía a los órganos electorales. Este ambiente, dice la misión de observación de la OEA, está desestabilizando el proceso electoral y el personal encargado corre peligro. El frágil proceso electoral en Honduras se agravó a finales de octubre con la revelación de audios en los que la consejera del órgano electoral, Cossette López, y el diputado Tomás Zambrano, traman un supuesto fraude electoral. Misión de observación de la OEA Los opositores a su vez señalan a la candidata Rixi Moncada, del partido en el poder, de buscar un fraude electoral. En esta confusión, la Fiscalía se posicionó del lado de la presidenta Xiomara Castro, lo que preocupa a la misión de observación de la Organización de Estados Americanos (OEA). La misión será clave en este proceso electoral, considera Ana María Méndez-Dardón, directora para Centroamérica de la Oficina en Washington para Asuntos Latinoamericanos (WOLA): “Es bueno que al menos la misión de observación electoral de la OEA ya esté en el país. Puede jugar un rol importante en que, si sigue a tan pocos días de las elecciones habiendo falta de consensos dentro del Consejo Nacional Electoral (CNE), pueden instar a que ellos puedan ser como una especie de mediadores para desentrampar todas las cuestiones administrativas”. “En última instancia, ¿utilizar el Consejo Permanente, como se hizo en el caso de Guatemala, no? Que al final fue lo que logró que hubiese una transición pacífica para la toma de posesión de Bernardo Arévalo”, agrega. Amenazas al proceso La misión de la OEA, que lidera el excanciller paraguayo Eladio Loizaga, llamó a la justicia hondureña a garantizar “la seguridad de todos los funcionarios electorales contra cualquier persecución derivada de sus funciones”, una acción que sería difícil de cumplir, estima Méndez-Dardón, por vicios al interior de las instituciones hondureñas. “Hay entre siete y 10 denuncias activas en el Ministerio Público que tienen que ver con el proceso electoral. Unas son contra consejeras del Consejo Nacional Electoral, otras son contra incluso miembros de las Fuerzas Armadas. Entonces es delicado, digamos, que estas denuncias puedan avanzar y que en algún momento puedan incluso entorpecer el proceso”, explica. “Otra amenaza es el mismo Congreso Nacional: la Comisión Permanente del Congreso Nacional tendría un rol activo, lo cual anula un poco ese rol rector y garante que tiene el CNE. Entonces, son muchas las amenazas, pero yo creo que sí hay herramientas diplomáticas, tanto técnicas, por medio de las misiones, pero también políticas, por medio de otros órganos multilaterales”, subraya asimismo. Según las encuestas, hay un empate técnico entre tres candidatos: Rixi Moncada, del oficialismo, Salvador Nasralla, del Partido Liberal, y Nasry Asfura, del Partido Nacional.

It's the same cash cycling through, you can't add those daily totals together. Sudden jumps like this is usually timing noise, month end balance sheet adjustments, bill settlements, corporate cash flows. Sometimes the RRP rate just looks slightly better than holding short term bills, and when that happens, money temporarily flows back into the Fed's vault. It's not QE, it's not a bailout, and it's not printing. Let's talk about what comes next. The Fed just cut rates twice and announced it's ending Quantitative Tightening on December 1. Starting then, it'll reinvest all maturing principal into short term Treasury bills, a quiet but major shift. That move stops the drain from QT and starts slowly feeding liquidity back into the system while shortening the duration of the Fed's holdings. In other words, they're pivoting from shrinking to steady, easing the pressure without calling it stimulus. So this little RRP bump is really just the market adjusting before the pivot, cash searching for a temporary home before the Fed starts quietly adding liquidity again through bill reinvestments. If reverse repo usage keeps climbing for weeks, that's when to pay attention. It could mean collateral scarcity or reserves tightening faster than the Fed wants. But right now, it's just the pipes humming, a short term ripple ahead of a much bigger shift in how liquidity will reenter the system. https://twitter.com/AlexMasonCrypto/status/1985445575634911511 Political/Rights Gov.

Parece que no habrá nada más tierno que este volver a Honduras: llegar con el amor iluminado por años y distancias, decir: «Esta es la tierra, este es el aire y este el río del cuento», recuperar las voces salpicadas de burlas familiares, reasumir la niñez en el dormido sabor de esta naranja y en este olor —que es casi de muchacha— de savia y de panales que sólo dan los árboles autores de nuestro propio canto. Porque volver a Honduras es ir de madrugada a los maizales para espantar los pájaros bisnietos de aquellos que espantamos, vivir en un mugido, en un relincho, que vienen de la noche, los sueños, alegrías y peligros de los antiguos campos. Parece que tendrá mucho de triste nuestro volver a Honduras: hallar que el calendario no era broma leyendo algunos rostros, saber que algo no vuelve en estas naves aunque el viajero vuelva y besar en la frente lo que un día besamos en la boca. Parece que también será de lágrimas este volver a Honduras: preguntar por hermanos, por amigos, que no nos esperaron y el horror de buscar en una tarde de cal y de cipreses unos nombres: Julián o Federico, Carlos, Daniel o Marcos. Parece que será feliz y trémulo nuestro volver a Honduras: vagar por los caminos que asolearon el verso de la infancia, llevar hasta una loma coronada de flores amarillas, de la mano, a los hijos que fundamos sobre lejanas playas —más allá de las nieves absolutas, de selvas y de mares— y decirles al fin: «Esta es la cuna y este el peñón exacto; esta es la tierra nuestra, la amorosa, la que espera a sus niños. Aquí esparcen su calcio generoso los huesos de mis padres, y el calcio va a la hierba y hace al pino más jubiloso y alto: Así trabajan todavía quienes nos prestaron la sangre.» Todo será feliz y doloroso, será trémulo y tierno porque volver a Honduras... me parece que es retomar el canto.1 ¡Qué recuerdos nostálgicos los que evoca el poeta hondureño Víctor Eugenio Castañeda, que escribió bajo el seudónimo de Jaime Fontana, en estos versos que forman parte de la obra titulada 100 poesías famosas del mundo y Honduras! «Este volver a Honduras», como lleva por título el poema, bien pudiera también recordarnos la famosa historia del regreso de Noemí a Belén de Judá, su pueblo de origen. Durante una época de hambre, Noemí había emigrado a la tierra de Moab junto con su esposo y sus dos hijos; pero allí, en el transcurso de unos diez años, habían muerto tanto su esposo como ambos hijos. Ahora viuda y sin hijos, Noemí vuelve a Belén con una de sus nueras, Rut la moabita, que había insistido en acompañarla hasta que la muerte misma las separara a pesar de no conocer allí a nadie más que a su suegra.2 Resulta que para Noemí «ese volver a Belén» si bien tiene mucho de triste y es de lágrimas,3 es a la postre feliz, trémulo y tierno, tal como pronostica el poeta Fontana con relación a volver a Honduras. Porque su nuera Rut se vuelve a casar y da a luz un hijo, del que con razón le dicen las mujeres a Noemí: «Este niño renovará tu vida y te sustentará en la vejez, porque lo ha dado a luz tu nuera, que te ama y es para ti mejor que siete hijos.»4 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 Jaime Fontana, «Este volver a Honduras», 100 poesías famosas del mundo y Honduras (Tegucigalpa: Graficentro Editores, 1998), pp. 50-51. 2 Rt 1:1-18 3 Rt 1:19-21 4 Rt 4:13-15

Juan Ramon Matta Ballesteros began life as a pickpocket in his hometown of Tegucigalpa, before heading out on the perilous border roads of Latin America as an emerald smuggler. Soon he was making friends in high places, scoring deals on consignments of cocaine - and connecting coca producers in the Andes with up-and-coming narcos in Mexico. All the while, Matta forged ties with the elites and corrupt soldiers who'd run Honduras for a century, capturing the small state and ensuring its future as a coup-happy transshipment point for years to come. But when Matta took part in the narco world's most notorious murder, in 1985, his world came crashing down. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop sits down with Cryptogaucho to explore the intersection of artificial intelligence, crypto, and Argentina's emerging role as a new frontier for innovation and governance. The conversation ranges from OpenAI's partnership with Sur Energy and the Stargate project to Argentina's RIGI investment framework, Milei's libertarian reforms, and the potential of space-based data centers and new jurisdictions beyond Earth. Cryptogaucho also reflects on Argentina's tech renaissance, its culture of resilience born from hyperinflation, and the rise of experimental communities like Prospera and Noma Collective. Follow him on X at @CryptoGaucho.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 – Stewart Alsop opens with Cryptogaucho from Mendoza, talking about Argentina, AI, crypto, and the energy around new projects like Sur Energy and Satellogic.05:00 – They dive into Argentina's growing space ambitions, spaceport plans, and how jurisdiction could extend “upward” through satellites and data sovereignty.10:00 – The talk shifts to global regulation, bureaucracy, and why Argentina's uncertainty may become its strength amid red tape in the US and China.15:00 – Discussion of OpenAI's Stargate project, AI infrastructure in Patagonia, and the geopolitical tension between state and private innovation.20:00 – Cryptogaucho explains the “cepo” currency controls, the black market for dollars, and crypto's role in preserving economic freedom.25:00 – They unpack RIGI investment incentives, Argentina's new economic rules, and efforts to attract major projects like data centers and nuclear reactors.30:00 – Stewart connects hyperinflation to resilience and abundance in the AI era, while Cryptogaucho reflects on chaos, adaptability, and optimism.35:00 – The conversation turns philosophical: nation-states, community networks, Prospera, and the rise of new governance models.40:00 – They explore Argentina's global position, soft power, and its role as a frontier of Western ideals.45:00 – Final reflections on AI in space, data centers beyond Earth, and freedom of information as humanity's next jurisdiction.Key InsightsArgentina as a new technological frontier: The episode positions Argentina as a nation uniquely situated between chaos and opportunity—a place where political uncertainty and flexible regulation create fertile ground for experimentation. Stewart Alsop and Cryptogaucho argue that this openness, combined with a culture forged in crisis, allows Argentina to become a testing ground for new models of governance, technology, and sovereignty.The convergence of AI, energy, and geography: OpenAI's deal with Sur Energy and plans for a data center in Patagonia signal how Argentina's geography and resources are becoming integral to the global AI infrastructure. Cryptogaucho highlights the symbolic and strategic power of Argentina serving as a “southern node” for the intelligence economy.Economic reinvention through RIGI: The RIGI framework offers tax and regulatory advantages to major investors, marking a turning point in Argentina's attempt to attract stable, high-value industries such as server farms, mining, and biotech. It represents a pragmatic balance between libertarian reform and national development.Crypto and currency freedom: Cryptogaucho recounts how Argentina's crypto community arose from necessity during hyperinflation and currency controls. Bitcoin and stablecoins became lifelines for developers and entrepreneurs locked out of traditional banking systems, teaching the world about decentralized resilience.AI abundance and human adaptation: The discussion draws parallels between hyperinflation's unpredictability and the overwhelming speed of AI progress. Stewart suggests that Argentina's social adaptability, born from scarcity and instability, may prepare its citizens for a future defined by abundance and rapid technological flux.Network states and new governance: The conversation explores Prospera, Noma Collective, and the idea of city-scale governance networks. These experiments, blending blockchain, law, and community, are seen as prototypes for post-nation-state organization—where trust and culture matter more than geography.Space as the next jurisdiction: The episode ends with an exploration of space as a new legal and economic domain. Satellites, data centers, and orbital communication networks could redefine sovereignty, creating “data islands” beyond Earth where information flows freely under new kinds of governance—a vision of humanity's next frontier.
