The 5% levy applies even if the individual has already relocated, turning “temporary” fiscal policy into a weapon against those who stayed too long. While courts have sometimes upheld narrow retroactive taxes, justices from Scalia to O'Connor have warned against exactly this kind of “bait-and-switch” confiscation.

Two closely watched surveys of U.S. manufacturing activity painted sharply divergent pictures in November, with one showing continued expansion and the other reporting accelerating contraction, highlighting deep uncertainty about the sector's health amid ongoing adjustment to the new rules of global trade. The S&P Global U.S. Manufacturing PMI registered 52.2 in November, marking the fourth consecutive month above the 50 threshold that separates expansion from contraction. However, the reading slipped from 52.5 in October. By contrast, the ISM Manufacturing PMI fell to 48.2, down from 48.7 in October and marking the ninth consecutive month of contraction. The divergence places the two surveys on opposite sides of the expansion-contraction divide, an unusual occurrence that suggests significantly different conditions across the manufacturing landscape.  https://twitter.com/ShadowofEzra/status/1995904464625000594?s=20   the national debt.

These developments come as Maduro appeared before a crowd near the presidential palace, affirming his “absolute loyalty” to the Venezuelan people, surrounded by senior officials in his government.

Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro is becoming increasingly isolated as regional governments shift away from Chavismo and move closer to Washington. Honduras and St. Vincent and the Grenadines, once reliable partners for Caracas, have both elected new governments that pledged to distance themselves from Maduro.  Honduras   Argentina, Ecuador, El Salvador, and Bolivia have also deteriorated as those countries shifted to the right. Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, both U.S. territories, have seen a renewed military buildup, with fighter jets and transport aircraft operating from Cold War-era facilities such as Roosevelt Roads and new activity at St. Croix's airport. Grenada is considering a U.S. request to host temporary radar equipment and personnel at Maurice Bishop International Airport. The government is still weighing technical and safety concerns, and the decision is complicated by the 1983 U.S. invasion and the airport's symbolic significance. Colombia remains the strongest partner, working closely with the United States on counter-narcotics, sanctions enforcement, and intelligence sharing, while also coordinating policy on the region's largest population of Venezuelan refugees. Paraguay and Uruguay consistently vote with Washington at the OAS to isolate Maduro and support democratic transition efforts. Ecuador works with the United States on organized crime, Venezuelan gang activity, and sanctions evasion, and has been publicly critical of the regime.  Maduro's remaining allies in the region are Cuba and Nicaragua, but neither is positioned to provide meaningful assistance.

Today we'll be taking a trip to the often overlooked country of Bolivia, so overlooked that we completely forgot where it was on a map. But anyway, we'll be talking about Roberto Suarez Gomez, a dude who turned a fortune into an even bigger fortune, by pretty sketchy means. As a result he interacted with a lot of familiar names. Now he didn't necessarily dole out a lot of violence personally, though it certainly happened, but he definitely got into some stuff that killed a lot of people, so he earned his spot here. Enjoy!

Bolivia is facing a severe economic crisis. The country is literally running out of dollars. Their foreign reserves have collapsed from $15 billion a decade ago to just $50 million today. In June 2024, Bolivia legalized cryptocurrencies, and digital asset transaction volume exploded - growing over 500 percent in the past year.To participate in the global economy, businesses are turning to stablecoins for access to dollar assets. From Binance peer-to-peer trading to stablecoin-powered credit cards, we explore how people survive when their country runs out of dollars, and how stablecoins are being used for global spending. Watch the full episode on YouTube.00:00 - Bolivia ran out of dollars02:06 - Stablecoins to the rescue03:25 - How did Bolivia get here?04:11 - Bolivia's parallel economy06:24 - Meru09:55 - What happens when a country runs out of dollarsOur Links -

In this episode, host Aaron Stanley speaks with Justin Norman, founder of The Flip, a content creator and filmmaker who documents technology adoption in emerging markets. Justin shares insights from his recent Latin American research trip exploring stablecoin adoption, which resulted in a YouTube documentary series examining markets like Argentina and Bolivia. The conversation delves into the disconnect between Argentina's impressive stablecoin transaction volumes and the lack of visible retail adoption, revealing that stablecoins primarily serve as store-of-value tools and facilitate cross-border trade rather than everyday spending. Justin emphasizes the importance of understanding the macro conditions driving adoption, including dollar shortages, parallel exchange markets, and currency devaluation, rather than focusing solely on technology hype. He also draws compelling parallels between Latin American and African markets, noting how similar economic pressures create comparable crypto adoption patterns, while highlighting Latin America's superior payment infrastructure that enables more seamless on-ramps and off-ramps for stablecoin users.You can connect with Justin on LinkedinBe sure to check out Justin's incredible YouTube documentary on stablecoins in Argentina here------------------------------------------------------------------Brazil Crypto Report is presented by AveniaIf you're building a wallet, a crypto consumer app, or a global payment platform, Avenia is your bridge to Latin America.

In this conversation we speak with a labor organizer and people's historian who covers Latin American movements with connections to Ecuador, Colombia, and Cuba. Folks may know her by the twitter handle @SovietwithSazon. In this conversation she discusses recent struggles and developments in Ecuador. In particular a recent 38 day general strike, and the popular rejection of a recent referendum  including measures which would have allowed the US to build military bases in Ecuador and cut public funding for political parties. Our guest contextualizes the current US-backed narco-military regime lead by Daniel Noboa. And she talks about the broader revenge campaign against former Pink Tide governments like Ecuador and Bolivia, now led by right wing forces. She discusses how the tactics we're seeing across Latin America against left-leaning governments, and the disappearances and assassinations of organizers, mark a return of the CIA's Operation Condor tactics. And she discusses how the capitalist class colludes with cartels to create crises that manufacture consent for the state of war decree that Ecuadorians are currently under. We'll include links to follow our guest on twitter, where she will be increasing her reporting on developments in Latin America, and to other episodes where we discuss recent developments with regard to Venezuela, Ecuador, Colombia, and on the topic of general strikes, the general strike Italian workers led a couple months ago.

Born in Argentina, Ernesto “Che” Guevara transformed from a curious medical student into a fearless revolutionary who challenged empires. His deep compassion for the poor and oppressed pushed him to fight alongside Fidel Castro in Cuba's liberation, where his courage, strategy, and leadership changed history. From the jungles of Cuba to the mountains of Congo and Bolivia, Che's relentless spirit inspired millions to dream of freedom. He was not just a guerilla commander but also a thinker, writer, and a voice for the voiceless. Even after his death, his words and image ignite revolutions of thought across continents. Che's life is a story of ideals, sacrifice, and the belief that one determined soul can change the fate of nations. KiranPrabha narrates the interesting life journey of Che Guevara in this 16 part series. This is Part -16; last part.

A poco más de dos semanas de asumir la presidencia de Bolivia, Rodrigo Paz anunció la eliminación de impuestos a los más ricos, una señal de que ya están en camino sus medidas liberales que contrastan con las políticas de tendencia socialista del MAS, el partido que gobernó ese país por dos décadas. Entre las decisiones se encuentra eliminar el impuesto a las grandes fortunas, que en realidad, aseguran los especialistas, no aportaba mucho a las acarcas del país. El gobierno de Bolivia confirmó este martes que se enviarán tres proyectos de ley a la Asamblea Legislativa para abrogar cuatro impuestos: el impuesto a las transferencias financieras, el impuesto al juego, el impuesto a las promociones empresariales y el impuesto a las grandes fortunas. Sin embargo, la eliminación de este último no traería grandes cambios. Así lo dijo a RFI el analista económico Roger Mario López: "Fue un impuesto caprichoso, porque el impuesto era al patrimonio, lo cual es raro, porque regularmente la tasación suele ser al flujo, al ingreso". "Entonces fue controvertido. Luego está que el punto de corte al cual se cobraba el impuesto era bastante alto, con lo cual al final era muy poca gente la que terminaba siendo afectada por ese impuesto de las grandes fortunas. Y lo que al final del día pasaba también era que la gente prefería sacar su dinero del país y evitar pagarlo. Además, lo más importante era que realmente eran ingresos irrisorios para la recaudación pública", continúa. Impuestos que representan poca recaudación, según economistas En este sentido, los cuatro impuestos que el gobierno pretende eliminar apenas representan poco más del 1% de la recaudación fiscal. El analista precisó que las arcas del gobierno boliviano dependen principalmente del impuesto a las utilidades de las empresas y luego de las utilidades de la empresa estatal Yacimientos Petrolíferos Fiscales Bolivianos. Aunque la eliminación de los cuatro impuestos se podría interpretar como una señal para atraer el capital extranjero, Roger Mario López considera que al gobierno le faltan más elementos: "Para que la inversión extranjera directa tenga esos efectos, regularmente se tiene que contar con un nivel de formación de habilidades en los trabajadores importante. Luego tiene que haber un sistema financiero que tenga la capacidad de movilizar la cantidad de recursos que las empresas necesitan". Argentina con Milei, hizo una reforma considerablemente más dura y más rápida de lo que el gobierno de Rodrigo Paz está haciendo hasta ahora y la inversión extranjera directa tampoco llegó en las cantidades que ellos esperaban. El economista prosigue: "Todas esas son condiciones que en Bolivia no se cumplen todavía y va a ser difícil que la inversión extranjera llegue solamente por este impuesto. No sé si lo va a lograr". Nuestro invitado hace además algunas comparaciones: "Aquí tenemos el caso también de Argentina con Milei, que hizo una reforma considerablemente más dura y más rápida de lo que el gobierno de Rodrigo Paz está haciendo hasta ahora y la inversión extranjera directa tampoco llegó en las cantidades que ellos esperaban, porque el inversor también dice: "si voy a invertir millones, en cuatro años, ¿qué más va a pasar? Me van a cambiar el gobierno de nuevo y voy a perder todo, me van a nacionalizar'". El presidente Rodrigo Paz aseguró que es importante eliminar el impuesto a las grandes fortunas porque esa medida, según él, ahuyentó más de 2.000 millones de dólares hacia países vecinos como Paraguay.

In this Stock Talk episode, I welcome back Quinton Hennigh, CEO of San Cristobal Mining, for a concise and insightful update on where genuine exploration value is emerging in today's metal markets. Key Discussion Highlights Exploration sentiment - Strong metals backdrop but rapid sentiment swings; silver's consolidation may be establishing a higher floor. Quality vs. noise - With many juniors well-funded, Quinton outlines simple filters to identify real discoveries versus dilution-heavy stories. Jurisdictions to watch - The Yukon as this cycle's discovery hub, plus improving exploration climates in Chile, Argentina, Bolivia, and Peru. Porphyry copper realities - Only a handful of systems ever become mines; how to quickly assess whether a new hit belongs in the “top tier.” Gold vs. silver - Silver may have more price upside this cycle, but quality primary silver deposits remain rare - supporting strong valuation premiums. Mentioned stocks - Snowline Gold (SGD.V), Sitka Gold (SIG.V), King Copper (KCP.V), Silver47 (AGA.V), Alaska Silver (WAM.V), Hercules Metals (BIG.V), Vizsla Silver (VZLA), MAG Silver, Gatos, SilverCrest. -------------- For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks: The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/   Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

My guest today is Martín Escobari. Martín is Co-President and Head of Global Growth Equity at General Atlantic. We talk about General Atlantic's unique founding story and how its long-term structure, including permanent capital, a single P&L, and partnership culture, allows it to invest differently than other growth equity firms. We discuss the firm's global perspective and particularly why the premium on U.S. equities is creating compelling opportunities across international and emerging markets. Martín has spent his career investing through bubbles, market cycles, and technological shifts. He shares his investing framework for balancing intuition with analysis, his approach to “spearfishing” for once-in-a-decade opportunities, and why he believes this is the best window for growth equity since 2009. Martín also reflects on his incredible personal story. He talks about growing up in turbulent Bolivia, and the role of curiosity and optimism in sustaining a long investing career. Martín's infectious energy and genuine love for investing made this conversation both insightful and a lot of fun. Please enjoy my great conversation with Martín Escobari.

Despite twenty-first-century fears of nuclear conflagrations with North Korea, Russia, and Iran, the Cuban Missile Crisis is the closest the United States has come to nuclear war. That history has largely been a bilateral narrative of the US-USSR struggle for postwar domination, with Cuba as the central staging ground--a standard account that obscures the shock waves that reverberated throughout Latin America. The Fate of the Americas: The Cuban Missile Crisis and the Hemispheric Cold War (UNC Press, 2025), as the first hemispheric examination of the Cuban Missile Crisis, shows how leaders and ordinary citizens throughout the region experienced it, revealing that, had the missiles been activated, millions of people across Latin America would have been at grave risk. Traversing the region from the Southern Cone to Central America, Renata Keller describes the deadly riots that shook Bolivia when news of the Cuban Missile Crisis broke, the naval quarantine that members of Argentina's armed forces formed around Cuba, the pro-Castro demonstrations organized by Nicaraguan students, and much more. Drawing on a vast array of archival sources from around the hemisphere and world, The Fate of the Americas demonstrates that even at the brink of destruction, Latin Americans played active roles in global politics and inter-American relations.

Teague Egan faced every founder's nightmare: payroll was due, and a massive investment deal with General Motors was stalled. With his back against the wall, Teague sold his house for $2 million and wired the cash to his company just to stay alive. That "all-in" gamble paid off, securing the partnership and positioning EnergyX to revolutionize the global energy transition.It all started on a Bolivian salt flat, where a chance comment sparked an obsession with lithium. In this interview, Teague sits down with Ryan Atkinson to reveal how he went from a tourist to a founder partnering with industry titans. He breaks down the crucial pivot EnergyX made when their initial licensing model hit a wall, proving that agility is just as important as innovation.You'll learn the grit required to survive the "valley of death" in startup funding and how to execute cold outreach strategies that land billion-dollar partners. We also dive into high-stakes risk management and the mindset needed for enterperenurs to set bold visions. Whether you are raising capital or scaling a business, Teague's story offers a masterclass in resilience.Takeaways:- Teague sold his own house for $2 million and wired the funds to the company to cover payroll and bridge the gap while waiting for the General Motors investment to close.- Great business ideas often come from stepping outside your bubble, as Teague's "aha moment" happened while traveling on a salt flat tour in Bolivia, not in a boardroom.- You do not need prior industry experience to start; Teague entered the lithium space with zero knowledge but bridged the gap through obsessive reading and research.- Networking is often a chain reaction where one contact leads to another, so you must be willing to send cold emails and attend conferences just to meet a single person.- Entrepreneurs must be agile enough to pivot their entire business model if the market resists, just as EnergyX switched from licensing technology to vertical integration when resource owners were too slow to adopt their tech.- The stress of entrepreneurship remains constant regardless of the dollar amount; whether the risk is $50,000 or $50 million, the only way to manage the anxiety is to focus on the daily work you can control.- Securing strategic partnerships with established giants like General Motors provides not only capital but also the institutional credibility needed to scale industrial technology.- Founders should set "unrealistic" and massive visions because bold goals are more effective at rallying employees and investors than modest, safe targets.- Timing can dictate your business model; if your technology is too early for the market to trust, you may have to build the infrastructure yourself to prove it works.- You must be the most confident person in the room regarding your execution, as investors and partners rely entirely on your belief to validate their own risk.Tags: Startup, Entrepreneurship, Business Strategy, EnergyX, Teague Egan, Sustainable Energy, Business ScalingResources:Grow your business today: https://links.upflip.com/the-business-startup-and-growth-blueprint-podcast Connect with Teague: https://www.instagram.com/teagueegan/?hl=en

REVISITED in 2025 - Episode 5 - To Travel Solo Or Not?In this episode, I go back to one of the earliest recordings I ever released on the Winging It Travel Podcast. My original episode, To Travel Solo or Not, captured a moment when I was still finding my voice, building the show from my bedroom, and trying to make sense of my own travel experiences. Now, years later, I'm revisiting those stories with fresh eyes.I take you through some of the pivotal solo travel moments that shaped who I am as a traveller today — from navigating Bolivia on my own after a last-minute change of plans, to driving around Antigua as the only tourist in sight, to the chaotic hostel scenes in Puerto Rico where life happened right in front of me. I also look back on the randomness of meeting a QPR legend in St. Kitts, getting stranded in Toronto with no way out, and being rescued by a friend I'd met years earlier on the road.These stories reminded me why solo travel can be so powerful. It gives you freedom, vulnerability, unexpected friendships, and moments of real growth. But I also talk honestly about the challenges — the loneliness, the missteps, the uncertainty — and how I see those experiences differently now in 2025.I also reflect on how travelling with friends and partners has shaped me, and how those dynamics contrast with going it alone. Revisiting this episode felt like opening an old journal and realising just how much has changed… and how much hasn't.If you're thinking about travelling solo this year, or if you're curious about how our perspectives evolve as we keep exploring, I think you'll get something out of this one.If you enjoy the episode, come say hello on Instagram at @wingingittravelpodcast, and check out more at wingingittravelpodcast.com. I'd love to hear your own solo travel stories.To finish, I am not sure what to think of my early episodes; they are a tad cringe from me in terms of the sound and production, but a reminder of the progression I have made in five years.Want to travel with me to El Salvador?

La ONU debe tomar pronto una decisión sobre la clasificación de la hoja de coca en el sistema de tratados de drogas. Bolivia, con apoyo de Colombia, presionan para que esta hoja, cuyo cultivo forma parte de las tradiciones indígenas, deje de ser estigmatizada. Se busca que el modelo de producción boliviano, único legal, sea considerado un referente. RFI visitó Villa Fátima, el mercado de hoja de coca legal más grande del mundo. Un informe de nuestra enviada especial, Paola Ariza.  En un barrio ladera de la Paz, en Villa Fátima, se encuentra el vasto mercado de hoja de coca legal. Se trata de Adepcoca, la Asociación Departamental de Productores de Coca, que representa a los productores de Yungas, una región al nor-este de La Paz que se caracteriza por su clima húmedo con constantes nieblas, precipitaciones y abundante vegetación. Para las comunidades, la hoja de coca hace parte de su identidad y de su modelo económico. "Desde hace varios años en la comunidad producimos la coquita. Para nosotros, la coca significa una hoja sagrada, una hoja respetada, la coca nos da vida. A nosotros los productores la coca nos da todo. Gracias a la coquita nuestros jóvenes estudian, gracias a la coquita, tenemos un techo, una alimentación. Para nosotros la coca significa mucho. Es nuestro sustento económico diario", explica José Lipa Cillo, productor de hoja de coca y que tiene un punto de venta en el mercado. "El orden comunal" ejerce el control  Rudy Paxi, Secretario permanente de Adepcoca, lamenta la estigmatización de un insumo que es tan natural para su país y destaca el control en la producción del modelo boliviano. "Tenemos un control social en las comunidades que se llama 'el orden comunal'. Si yo produzco 5 bultos de coca, los tengo que traer hasta aquí con una orden comunal. De la misma manera sale al interior del país con todos los controles", indica Paxi, subrayando el estricto control que ejerce tanto el Gobierno como las comunidades. Si bien, la hoja de coca es uno de los insumos de la cocaína, expertos como Ricardo Soberón, fundador del Centro de Investigación Drogas y Derechos Humanos, destacan que comparar la droga con la planta es un error. "La hoja de coca tiene 14 alcaloides, uno de los cuales es la cocaína. Pero éste se encuentra en ínfimas cantidades las cuales, al ser incorporadas al cuerpo humano a través de la hoja de coca, no implican ninguna forma de ingestión del alcaloide y no es similar a la ingestión de la cocaína", señaló este abogado. Si bien Soberón reconoce que el modelo boliviano no es perfecto, asegura que es un "modelo-ejemplo" en la regulación de la producción de la hoja de coca, fundamental para las comunidades andinas. Solo en Bolivia la producción de hoja de coca a gran escala es legal, pues es el único país de los firmantes del tratado de la ONU exento de penalización por producir esta planta.

La decisión del nuevo presidente Rodrigo Paz de eliminar el Ministerio de Justicia ha sido muy criticada en Bolivia, particularmente por la oposición masista y arcista. Para el constitucionalista Williams José Bascopé, esa medida se explica por la politización y la mercantilización de la justicia. En Bolivia, el presidente recientemente electo, Rodrigo Paz, eliminó el Ministerio de Justicia tras destituir al titular de esa cartera, Freddy Vidovic, por haber ocultado una sentencia a tres años de prisión que recibió en 2015. Una decisión que ha provocado múltiples reacciones. Paz defendió su decisión aduciendo que se trataba de una institución corrupta, fruto de la manipulación de los gobiernos anteriores, los cuales manejaban a su antojo las condenas judiciales. Mediante un decreto, el presidente Rodrigo Paz cesó al ministro Freddy Vidovic, a quien había nombrado unas semanas atrás después de asumir el mandato. En su lugar designó a Jorge Franz García, si bien posteriormente optó por eliminar directamente la cartera. Para el constitucionalista boliviano Williams José Bascopé, el problema no es la institución en sí, sino en lo que se había convertido en la práctica. "En las manos adecuadas, un Ministerio de la Presidencia podía ser una herramienta muy buena para el Gobierno y para el país. Lamentablemente, desde el ingreso de Evo Morales al poder y luego de Arce Catacora, es decir, el MAS, esto fue degenerándose. Porque ese Ministerio de Justicia y sus ministros, tanto del evismo como del arcismo, en realidad procuraron acaparar todo lo que fue el Poder Judicial: sus funciones, su control. Terminaron siendo el titiritero de jueces, fiscales y hasta de la policía en las investigaciones. Y empezaron a perseguir, anular y meter a la cárcel a varios opositores".  "En Bolivia la corrupción ha ido muy lejos"  El presidente Rodrigo Paz no ha precisado si otro ministerio va a asumir las funciones del Departamento de Justicia, que se encargaba de promover leyes y coordinar los poderes legislativo, judicial y electoral, aunque de manera corrupta, como explica Bascopé. "[En Bolivia] la corrupción ha ido muy lejos a causa del masismo [el movimiento MAS] y la obscenidad que hicieron Evo Morales y Arce Catacora. El país sufre de una desinstitucionalización oprobiosa, de la cual es víctima el ciudadano de a pie. La administración de justicia se ha politizado y mercantilizado. Todo esto no va a parar de un momento a otro simplemente suprimiendo el Ministerio de Justicia; hay que mejorar la calidad de la formación de los profesionales, incorporar buenos profesionales y garantizar que esos funcionarios tengan cierta independencia. Porque si los políticos de siempre siguen metiendo la mano, va a ser muy difícil tener una [verdadera] administración de justicia".  El experto cree que, a pesar de varios años de corrupción, los ciudadanos pueden recobrar la confianza en la institución, si bien esto tomará al menos una década. "Desarrollar una administración de justicia que sea no solamente buena, sino que respete realmente los valores del derecho y de la justicia, así como los derechos humanos, requiere un lapso mínimo de diez años. En unos 15 o 20 años podría tener una cierta solidez institucional. Todo esto no se logra de la noche a la mañana. Por eso, solo el tiempo dirá si realmente fue una decisión atinada eliminar el Ministerio de Justicia. Tal vez más adelante se sienta la ausencia de una institución que pueda coordinar y apoyar la implementación de políticas para mejorar la administración de justicia [en el país]".  Rodrigo Paz asumió el poder a principios de noviembre, sucediendo a Luis Arce del Movimiento al Socialismo (MAS).

In the latest episode of iGaming Daily, host Fernando Noodt is joined by Charlie Horner and Joe Streeter, to analyse William Hill's monumental decision to exit markets including Nigeria, Vietnam, and Bolivia, a move described as "cold hard business". Parent company Evoke is scaling down the UK's oldest gambling brand, choosing to focus Hills on its domestic presence. The trio discuss the reasons behind this shift, including navigating regulatory turbulence and political volatility in global markets, and how Evoke plans to leverage William Hill's strong UK retail portfolio (over 1,300 locations) while relying on the 888 and Mr. Green brands for international online expansion. Additionallly, the three explore whether prioritising the brick-and-mortar segment over international online growth marks a new chapter for the brand.To read more about what was discussed on today's episode, click on the following links:- https://sbcnews.co.uk/europe/2025/11/21/william-hill-13-exit/- https://igamingexpert.com/regions/asia/william-hill-africa-asia-exits/Host: Fernando NoodtGuests: Charlie Horner & Joe StreeterProducer: James RossEditor: James RossiGaming Daily is also now on TikTok.

Che Guevara – the man whose name became a global symbol of rebellion and justice. Born in Argentina, Ernesto “Che” Guevara transformed from a curious medical student into a fearless revolutionary who challenged empires. His deep compassion for the poor and oppressed pushed him to fight alongside Fidel Castro in Cuba's liberation, where his courage, strategy, and leadership changed history. From the jungles of Cuba to the mountains of Congo and Bolivia, Che's relentless spirit inspired millions to dream of freedom. He was not just a guerilla commander but also a thinker, writer, and a voice for the voiceless. Even after his death, his words and image ignite revolutions of thought across continents. Che's life is a story of ideals, sacrifice, and the belief that one determined soul can change the fate of nations. KiranPrabha narrates the interesting life journey of Che Guevara in this 16 part series. This is Part -15. Events happened in the last 2 days of Che's life - Final Encounter - Captured by Military - Last 24 hours - Got fired in point blank range - What happened on the last day? are covered in this episode.

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 this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan takes listeners across Venezuela, Colombia, Mexico, and Chile to reveal a regional battle between the Left and the Right. He then connects these global trends to the rise of Democratic Socialism in the United States and explains what a socialist future for America would look like in the words of the Democratic Socialists of America themselves. Trump Weighs Strikes in Venezuela and Colombia: The USS Gerald Ford carrier strike group has arrived off the Venezuelan coast with fifteen thousand U.S. troops in the region. Trump says he will not rule out military action or even ground forces against the Maduro regime, which the State Department has formally labeled a terrorist organization. Maduro has offered Trump access to Venezuela's massive oil reserves in exchange for staying in power, and the White House is openly considering all options. In Colombia, Marxist president Gustavo Petro continues to defend his past with the M-19 terror group. Trump signaled he is willing to hit Colombian drug labs if necessary, saying he would be "proud" to destroy them. Mexico Erupts Over Cartel Violence: Mexico City saw a weekend of violent protests that left one hundred officers injured. Outrage grew after the assassination of a popular mayor in Michoacan by a cartel-recruited teen. Protesters blasted President Claudia Sheinbaum's approach of "Hugs, Not Bullets," arguing it has empowered cartels and left communities defenseless. Younger Mexicans filled the streets, furious that their country remains trapped between socialist leadership and cartel domination. Chile Rejects the Far Left: Seventy percent of Chilean voters backed conservative candidates in the first round of the presidential election. Jose Kast, a conservative Catholic with nine children, will face Communist Party member Jeanne Jara in the December runoff. Voters say crime, cartels, and mass illegal migration have pushed the nation to the breaking point. Kast has vowed to secure the border with walls and landmines, expand prisons, and cut leftist funding that has fueled unrest and economic decline. The Bigger Picture: A Hemisphere in Revolt: Across Latin America, leftist governments are collapsing under crime, corruption, and failed socialist policies. Voters in Bolivia, Argentina, Ecuador, Panama, and El Salvador have already swung to the Right. Europe is shifting too. Yet the United States is moving in the opposite direction. Cities like New York and Seattle are embracing radical Democratic Socialists who draw inspiration from Latin American Marxists. What a Socialist America Would Look Like: Bryan walks through the Democratic Socialists of America's own strategy document from 2012. The group calls for abolishing private business, seizing the means of production, replacing entrepreneurs with government bureaucrats, and using the Democratic Party as a host to move the country toward Marxism. DSA leaders admit there is no blueprint for how their system would work and acknowledge the violent history of Marxist regimes. Their model depends on free housing, free jobs, free education, and government assigned careers funded by an undefined source. Bryan warns that the movement is already advancing inside the Democratic Party with leaders like AOC and Zohran Mamdani openly following the playbook.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Trump Venezuela USS Gerald Ford, Maduro cartel de los soles terrorism, Gustavo Petro M-19 Colombia strikes, Mexico City cartel protests Claudia Sheinbaum, Michoacan mayor assassination cartel teen, Chile election Jose Kast Jeanne Jara, Democratic Socialists of America 2012 document, DSA seize means of production, Mamdani AOC Democratic Party strategy

Retired FBI agent Pete Lapp helped capture Ana Montez, a Puerto Rican-born American and UVA alumna who was a senior analyst for the Defense Intelligence Agency overseeing the Cuban account. For 17 years, she was also a spy for Cuba and was an avowed communist. Ironically, as many of four of Anna's close family members worked for the FBI and despite Anna's more extreme political views, assumed she was a loyal American. From his book “Queen of Cuba,” Pete relates how Ana was identified as a potential national security risk, secretly investigated, and ultimately apprehended after years of committing espionage. He describes how she transmitted information and also shares his view of her psychology: Withdrawn, lonely, at odds with her father, and driven by her political convictions and personal disagreement with U.S. foreign policy (including its policy towards Nicaragua) rather than financial gain, by which so many other spies have been enticed.Recruited while in college in 1983 during the Reagan administration by Cuban agent Marta Velasquez, (who was also a Puerto Richan-American) Ana's steadfast career rise at the Department of Defense gave her increased access over time to information of value to Castro's Cuba, stopping short of putting agents in personal peril. Cuban intelligence has been chronically underestimated over decades and makes Ana's case a warning example of an organized program to infiltrate critical branches of the U.S. government, along with the recent apprehension of former U.S. Ambassador to Bolivia, Manuel Rocha, whose been identified as a Cuban spy.Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 11-6-25 THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT VENEZUELA. FIRST HOUR 9-915 Anatol Lieven discusses the institutionalization of the Ukraine war, highlighted by children being trained to fly drones in classrooms. This blend of new technology and old societal militarization creates a "bloodless war" perception, potentially making conflict psychologically easier. He also addresses the argument that "stagnating states" are militarizing to maintain power, fueling conflicts and reasserting spheres of influence (a "new economic Monroe Doctrine"). The US is critically involved, enabling Ukrainian targeting capabilities. 915-930 Anatol Lieven discusses the institutionalization of the Ukraine war, highlighted by children being trained to fly drones in classrooms.

He also addresses the argument that "stagnating states" are militarizing to maintain power, fueling conflicts and reasserting spheres of influence (a "new economic Monroe Doctrine"). The US is critically involved, enabling Ukrainian targeting capabilities. 930-945 Chris Riegel discusses how artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics are transforming labor, citing modest IBM layoffs but predicting heavy impacts in large retail. Advanced robotics in Chinese auto manufacturing drives cost efficiency, and AI combined with robotics enhances manufacturing capability. While seeing demand, Riegel notes characteristics of a bubble, especially in wildly overvalued stock prices, fueled by vast investment in AI data centers. In QSRs and retail, AI adoption is driven by efficiency and, in places like California, high minimum wages. 945-1000 Mary Anastasia O'Grady discusses the strong US military presence near Venezuela, intended to pressure dictator Nicolás Maduro to leave. While the opposition (led by elected President González) is ready to govern, the Trump administration hesitates due to security concerns. The major risk is chaos: following Maduro's exit, drug cartels (like Cartel de los Soles) and other groups (like ELN and Tren de Aragua) might fight dissident generals, leading to instability rather than a smooth transition to democracy. SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Joel Finkelstein discusses how the New York election of socialist Zohran Mamdani was influenced by "subnationalism," where foreign nations subvert democracy. Organizations associated with Islamist Maoist ideals and CCP assets (like Neville Roy Singham, who bankrolled a campaign hub) were central to mobilizing votes. On social media, especially Instagram and TikTok, content favorable to Mamdani was given "engineered virality," with over 50% of viral engagement coming from non-American users, suggesting organized foreign intercession. 1015-1030 Ahmad Fouad Alkhatib discusses the high probability of renewed conflict in Gaza, arguing that the ceasefire is fragile due to Hamas's malign intentions. He estimates Hamas's combat-effective forces are significantly lower than reported (3,000 to 5,000, versus 15,000 to 30,000), noting Hamas pays fighters $20 to $25 a day. He also challenges polls showing widespread Gazan support for Hamas, arguing such results are manipulated and defy logic given the catastrophe following October 7. Disarmament is crucial for any future political process. 1030-1045 Ahmad Fouad Alkhatib argues that disarmament must precede any credible political process in Gaza, citing Hamas's use of medical facilities like Shifa and Nasser hospitals for interrogations and military activities. He criticizes Turkey and Qatar for using Hamas as a bargaining chip for regional leverage, suggesting they now posture Hamas as a potential security guarantor against ISIS. Alkhatib also suggests using Private Military Contractors (PMCs) as an enforcement force to actively fight Hamas and secure territory, given diminishing faith in an International Stabilization Force. 1045-1100 Gregg Roman details Turkey and Qatar's strategy to establish regional hegemony across "five fronts" by replacing the Shia Crescent. Turkey, providing military manpower, and Qatar, providing the budget, are active in Gaza, southern Lebanon, Syria, and Djibouti. Their plan includes securing maritime supremacy in the Eastern Mediterranean via an agreement with Libya and extending air power over Syrian airspace. Erdoğan seeks plausible deniability by empowering Syrian jihadis to attack the Golan Heights and is building bases in Djibouti and Somalia. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Professor Evan Ellis discusses Argentina's economic stabilization under President Milei, who resisted dollarization by bringing the peso to a stable, free-market rate through aggressive spending cuts and US/IMF support. This success under the new US "economic Monroe Doctrine" sends a strong signal to the Americas, aimed at countering China's rapid expansion. Ellis also reviews US military readiness near Venezuela and political shifts toward the center-right in Bolivia and potentially Chile, though these nations remain economically engaged with China. 1115-1130 Professor Evan Ellis discusses Argentina's economic stabilization under President Milei, who resisted dollarization by bringing the peso to a stable, free-market rate through aggressive spending cuts and US/IMF support.

Ellis also reviews US military readiness near Venezuela and political shifts toward the center-right in Bolivia and potentially Chile, though these nations remain economically engaged with China. FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Veronique de Rugy critiques the administration's legal argument at the Supreme Court that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) authorizes the President to impose tariffs. She argues the term "emergency" is used too loosely, defining 50 years of trade deficits as an emergency, potentially granting the President immense, unchecked power to tax. Tariffs are taxes, which Congress should control. De Rugy notes tariffs are already causing damage by raising prices for consumers or forcing companies to cut profits and investment. 1215-1230 Alan Tonelson discusses the Supreme Court oral arguments concerning the President's authority to impose tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). The administration argues the President can invoke IEEPA due to emergencies like fentanyl and trade deficits. Tonelson finds arguments against including tariffs under IEEPA's regulatory language "jaw-dropping." He stresses that the President must have sole control over declaring foreign policy emergencies, necessary for rapid response. If rejected, the President has other longstanding tariffing powers. 1230-1245 Dr. AJ Kolhari discusses Russia's successful test of the nuclear-powered Burevestnik cruise missile, which flew 14,000 km for 15 hours. The missile captures and compresses air, heating it over a nuclear reactor to create thrust. Kolhari emphasizes the danger because it flies low (50 to 100 m) and is hard to detect. He notes this nuclear propulsion technology, or similar ramjet designs, could revolutionize commercial travel and be applied to flight on Mars, using its CO₂ atmosphere for heating. 1245-100 AM Conrad Black discusses Canadian politics and trade, noting a misunderstanding between Prime Minister Carney and Ontario Premier Doug Ford regarding an anti-tariff ad that offended President Trump. Black reports that China's General Secretary Xi has been conciliatory toward both Canada and the US. Crucially, Canada needs pipelines built both east, west (Trans Mountain to Vancouver/Pacific), and south (Keystone XL) to move Alberta's oil. Carney's federal government tentatively agreed to approve a second pipeline to Northern British Columbia.
