Luego de que se registró la movilización de tanquetas y personal militar en la Plaza de la Paz, en Bolivia, e incluso integrantes del Ejército accedieron a la sede del gobierno, el presidente Luis Arce cambió al alto mando militar el general Juan José Zúñiga, quien encabezó la intentona golpista con el objetivo de cambiar el gabinete de gobierno, liberar a todos los presos políticos, como la expresidenta interina Jeanine Añez y restablecer la democracia en el país.El presidente Luis Arce aseguró que este intento de golpe de Estado a manos de militares desleales mancha sus uniformes y atenta contra la Constitución, pero destacó que Bolivia también cuenta con militares que respetan las leyes.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

En Contacto con Erbol, el jefe Bancada del MAS “arcista” en la Cámara de Diputados, Jerges Mercado, acusó a Andrónico Rodríguez de actuar como Jeanine Añez, al tomar posesión de la presidencia de la Asamblea Legislativa Plurinacional.

Nos detenemos después en Bolivia, donde la expresidenta Jeanine Añez ha sido condenada a diez años de prisión por la crisis de 2019, en medio de una polémica por las observaciones de organismos como la ONU de que la expresidenta interina debió tener un juicio de responsabilidades en el Parlamento.

El eurodiputado de Unidas Podemos, Miguel Urbán, informó que en la elección del ganador para el Premio Sajarov, la candidata Jeanine Añez, postulada por la extrema derecha de Europa, no recibió ni un solo voto por lo que consideró que su candidatura solo buscaba generar hostilidad en Bolivia.

The right-wing candidate Luis Camacho - allied with Jeanine Añez, the country's interim president - followed in a distant third place, with only 14.1% of the vote. The second- and third-place finishers combined still would not overtake Arce.

Franklin Roosevelt warned about.In the second segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Karla Reyes, a New York City schoolteacher and union activist in the United Federation of Teachers, to talk about yesterday's Teacher's Day of Resistance, why the "scattershot" state-by-state approach to school closure is emblematic of the broader drive to 'reopen' the economy, and how educators are fighting back against threats to their own health and that of their students.In the third segment Sean and Jacquie are joined by Ollie Vargas, writer and journalist for Radio Kawsachun Coca, to talk about the dozens of roadblocks paralyzing Bolivia as supporters of the Movement to Socialism demand the US-backed Jeanine Añez regime hold elections as previously agreed, and why the resistance is significantly stronger than when protesters previously seized key roads immediately following the November coup.Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Dr. Gerald Horne, Moores Professor of History and African American Studies at the University of Houston, to talk about his new book, "The Dawning of the Apocalypse: The Roots of Slavery, White Supremacy, Settler Colonialism, and Capitalism in the Long Sixteenth Century," why the police lynching of George Floyd isn't a 'bug' but a 'feature' of a system fundamentally baseded on settler-colonial violence, and how white supremacy manifests in the bipartisan imperialist aggressions of US foreign policy.

In this segment of By Any Means Necessary hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Ollie Vargas, writer and journalist for Radio Kawsachun Coca, to talk about the huge uprising gripping Bolivia as protesters demand the US-backed Jeanine Añez regime hold elections as previously agreed, why the resistance is significantly stronger than when protesters previously seized key roads immediately following the November coup, and the links between attempts to privatize Bolivia's lithium supply and Elon Musk's recent tweet seemingly admitting to playing a role in the ouster of elected President Evo Morales.

More than 61,000 new COVID-19 cases were reported in the US on Sunday, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The struggle continues, but there's a bright blip on the radar: "The first person received a shot Monday morning in a large-scale test of a vaccine candidate being developed by Cambridge biotechnology company Moderna in collaboration with the US government," the Washington Post reported Monday. What does this all mean?The Ukrainian government and separatists in eastern Ukraine began a ceasefire on Sunday that could lead to the end of the six-year conflict if it holds. Ukraine's military said there were two breaches of the ceasefire on Monday: one in which separatists open fire with grenades and small arms overnight, as well as an incident around midday involving grenade launchers, machine guns and small arms. Does this signal real progress?“Changing the CCP's [Chinese Communist Party's] behavior cannot be the mission of the Chinese people alone. Free nations have to work to defend freedom,” US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in a speech last week. "He went on to say that he had 'faith' the United States could successfully force a change in Beijing's behavior because it had done so before: with the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991," DefenseOne reported on July 23. How do the realities of economic ties between China and the US impact Pompeo's rhetoric?This Wednesday, the CEOs of Facebook, Amazon, Google and Apple - four of the biggest companies in the technology industry - will appear before Congress under oath as the House Antitrust Subcommittee attempts to determine whether or not these internet firms have become too big and powerful. Here's a very rarely used political science term that I hope the audience can comprehend: Duh. Here are my questions. Can the genie be put back in the bottle? Can users' personal information be protected? Is there a way to stop these harassing phone calls that I am receiving from solicitors?Last Wednesday, US President Donald Trump "announced that the Justice Department would send hundreds of additional federal agents into cities to confront a rise in shootings and other violence," the New York Times reported on July 22. It's one thing to send agents into cities under the pretext or pretense of protecting federal buildings; it's another to send them into cities, uninvited to fight crimes. According to a Sunday report by Common Dreams, "People took to the streets in communities across the United States on Saturday in solidarity with ongoing protests against police brutality in Portland, Oregon, that have been met with a forceful and widely criticized response from federal agents deployed by President Donald Trump, who has said he will send teams to other major US cities."Why do people who should know better continue to champion this Russiagate story as if it either still has legs or, like a marathon runner at mile 16, will hopefully find some? A Sunday headline in the Washington Times read: "Source for Steele discredited anti-Trump dossier outed." What does all of this mean?"Amid a rapidly worsening COVID-19 pandemic, Bolivia's coup government has once again suspended much-anticipated elections that were due to be held on September 6," MintPress News reported on July 24. "This is the third time the administration of Jeanine Añez has postponed them because of the virus, setting a new date for October 18." What does this mean for Bolivia and the region going forward? "Israel is believed to be behind several recent acts of sabotage against Iranian civilian and military infrastructure, including a hospital, that have taken the lives of at least 19 people and has further disrupted an economy already in the throes of a devastating downturn brought on by a global pandemic and crippling economic sanctions," MintPress News reported on July 22.

Jeanine Añez, Evo Morales y las elecciones bolivianas parecen estar en disputa tras la pandemia del COVID-19 ¿Hay gato encerrado en estas elecciones que se acercan? Entérate en nuestro capítulo.

El municipio de La Guardia, a través de su alcalde, Jorge Chichino Morales, envió una extensa carta a la presidenta del estado, Jeanine Añez, exigiendo que el gobierno asuma sus competencias en la pandemia, o transfiera recursos para que ese municipio pueda hacerse cargo. Morales argumentó con números este pedido, toda vez que se redujeron los recursos, aumentaron las competencias, lo que derivó en una deuda muy grande para el municipio que no tiene la liquidez para asumirla. #AsContenidos #Covid19Bolivia

In this episode of By Any Means Necessary hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by activist and political strategist Stacey Hopkins to talk about Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms' decision to mandate mask usage in Atlanta in defiance of Gov. Brian Kemp's policy at the state level, the challenges facing activists pushing for mail-in voting amid the pandemic, and why the real threat to democracy is posed not by voter fraud but by large-scale right-wing electoral fraud.In the second segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Denis Rogatyuk, an independent journalist, writer and researcher, to talk about the announcement by Bolivia's coup-borne regime that so-called "interim President" Jeanine Añez has tested positive for coronavirus, how this may impact the elections slated for Sept. 6th, and what the resignation of Ecuadorian Vice President Otto Sonnenholzner means for that country's increasing unstable right-wing government. In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Brian Mier, co-editor of Brasil Wire and author of Year of Lead: Washington, Wall Street and the New Imperialism in Brazil, to talk about the new article from Brazil's Agencia Publica exposing the FBI's regular meetings with the authors of the infamous "Lava Jato" conspiracy which saw the right wing seize power from leftist President Lula de Silva, whether President Jair Bolsonaro's claims to have been diagnosed with coronavirus may be another "chloroquine commercial" within his strategy of "necropolitics," and why the best responses to coronavirus have come from socialist governments and the worst from capitalist states.Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie are joined by social innovation activist Kendrick Jackson to talk about Bernie Sanders' suggestion that Democratic nominee Joe Biden would be "the most progressive president since FDR," how supposedly progressive politicians are used to muzzle revolutionary movements, and the wave of performative concessions by corporations to Black communities that didn't ask for them.

In this segment of By Any Means Necessary hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Ollie Vargas, writer and journalist with Radio Kawsachun Coca, to talk about the new report by the New York Times acknowledging the unreliability of the OAS report claiming Evo Morales' victory last year involved electoral fraud, why the mainstream media only seems to admit having peddled such disinformation once the effects of its proliferation can no longer be undone, and whether the coup-borne regime of Jeanine Añez can be trusted to carry out the elections just announced in September.

In this episode of By Any Means Necessary hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Kerbie Joseph, Program Coordinator of the Audre Lorde project and a member of the Party for Socialism and Liberation, to talk about New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio's promise to cut funding for the New York Police Department, why concessions being offered represent an attempt at "appeasement" by the ruling class, and the ways the coronavirus crisis continue to expose the massive holes in the social 'safety net.' In the second segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Ollie Vargas, writer and journalist with Radio Kawsachun Coca, to talk about the new report by the New York Times acknowledging the unreliability of the OAS report claiming Evo Morales' victory last year involved electoral fraud, why the mainstream media only seems to admit having peddled such disinformation once the effects of its proliferation can no longer be undone, and whether the coup-borne regime of Jeanine Añez can be trusted to carry out the elections just announced in September.In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Dr. Jack Rasmus, economist, radio show host, & author of "The Scourge of Neoliberalism," to talk about why the recent unemployment numbers are so misleading, why the killing of George Floyd was just the "tip of the iceberg" in terms of the social issues motivating continued protests, and what to make of the Trump administration's promise of another stimulus package.Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Dr. Jared Ball, a father, husband, Professor of Communication Studies at Morgan State University in Baltimore, MD, the curator of imixwhatilike.org and author of the new book, “The Myth and Propaganda of Black Buying Power,” to talk about efforts by the Democratic "resistance" to co-opt nationwide demonstrations against police terror and convert them into anti-Trump street festivals, how the "Black misleadership class" is exploiting the relatively disorganized nature of the protest movement in Washington DC to insert their own narrative, and how the desire for increased miltary spending is driving the campaign to escalate tensions with China.

Gabriel Romano, Franco Gamboa y Alvaro Rivera Valdez conversan con María Lily Maric, psicóloga, quien nos hace una radiografía del racismo desde su mirada profesional, los hechos acontecidos en USA, protestas y violencia tras el asesinato de George Floyd a manos de Derek Chauvin policía de la ciudad de Mineapolis. En el segundo sector del programa conversamos con Alejandra Prado, ex parlamentaria, tocamos los temas de la reducción de ministerios por parte del gobierno de Jeanine Añez, y la renuncia del Ex Alcalde de Cochabamba José María Leyes tras las acusaciones de corrupción.

In this episode of By Any Means Necessary, hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by John Ross, Senior Fellow for the Chongyang Institute at the Renmin University of China and an award-winning resident columnist with several Chinese media organizations, to talk about the jaw-dropping news that oil prices fell below zero yesterday, how the price reduction will impact not just oil multinationals but everyday people, and why US media is portraying China's efforts to slow the spread of the coronavirus in other nations as a geopolitical power play.In the second segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Ollie Vargas, a journalist with Radio Kawsachun Coca, to talk about the detention of his colleague Lander Marca Veizaga by the Bolivian coup-borne government of Jeanine Añez, why he thinks the move was meant to not only "intimidate certain journalists" but also send a message to indigenous and working-class-led social groups organizing large-scale food relief efforts amid the economic shutdown, and why so many working people in the largely-informal Bolivian economy are feeling "abandoned" by the Añez government. In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Basav Sen, Director of the Climate Policy Project at the Institute for Policy Studies, to talk about how the capitalist class exploits natural disasters to enrich themselves, how the masses and the environment suffer in the process, and what citizens can and are doing counter these efforts.Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Rev. Grayland Hagler, , to talk about the news that DC's largest halfway house is shutting down, how the federal government's treatment of incarcerated people and immigrants amid the crisis demonstrates which people the ruling class views as expendable, and how to fight back against the armed far-right protesters demanding everyone return to work amid the pandemic.

In this segment of By Any Means Necessary, hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Medea Benjamin, Co-Founder CODEPINK: Women for Peace, to talk CODEPINK's new campaign with The Grayzone calling for OAS to observe the US' own Democratic primary elections, how the tongue-in-cheek campaign attempts to draw attention to the longstanding selectivity in where the OAS demands electoral monitoring, why so many basic logistical obstacles are imposed on working people trying to cast their ballot, the role of the OAS in overthrowing the democratically-elected government of Bolivian President Evo Morales, how CODEPINK plans to protect the integrity of the upcoming Bolivian elections, and what steps must be taken by other organizations to ensure that the elections aren't rigged by the current de facto military government of Jeanine Añez.

On this episode of By Any Means Necessary, hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by award-winning editorial cartoonist and columnist Ted Rall to talk about the six primary contests set to take place later today, why Biden's obvious intellectual deterioration is such a gift to the right wing, what to make of Bernie Sanders' success among Muslims, why Sanders' loyalty to the Democratic party is so rarely repaid, why growing resentment among Sanders' base over his failure to more forcefully hit Joe Biden may force Bernie to go on the attack, and whether failing to do so could cost him the nomination.In the second segment, Jacquie and Sean are joined by Medea Benjamin, Co-Founder CODEPINK: Women for Peace, to talk CODEPINK's new campaign with The Grayzone calling for the OAS to observe the US' own Democratic primary elections, how the tongue-in-cheek campaign attempts to draw attention to the longstanding selectivity in where the OAS demands electoral monitoring, why so many basic logistical obstacles are imposed on working people trying to cast their ballot, the role of the OAS in overthrowing the democratically-elected government of Bolivian President Evo Morales, how CODEPINK plans to protect the integrity of the upcoming Bolivian elections, and what steps must be taken by other organizations to ensure the elections aren't rigged by the current de facto military government of Jeanine Añez.In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by independent journalist Vanessa Beeley to talk about conditions on the ground in liberated South Idlib, the pattern of military offensives and counter-attacks between the Syrian Arab Army and the Al Qaeda-led 'moderate rebels' which has come to characterize the armed struggle there, how Turkish President Recep Erdogan was violating the previous Turkish-Russian ceasefire agreement by continuing to supply the terrorist factions they're using to create a 'buffer zone,' why the new ceasefire represents a masterful negotiation by Russia and a big win for the Syrian people, why Turkish invasions and other aggressions against Syrian sovereignty failed to draw the censure of NATO nations, why Syrian Arab Army offensives couldn't possibly have succeeded without extensive civilian collaboration and what that cooperation says about the loyalties of everyday Syrian people, what the discovery of a British SAS operative in Syria reveals about the long-term strategic reorientation of NATO nations, and why the public is increasingly wary of the black-and-white media narrative presented by the establishment.Later in the show, Jacquie and Sean are joined by Brandon Sutton, host of the Discourse Podcast, to talk about Charlemagne Tha God lashing out at Joe Biden for refusing to appear on The Breakfast Club morning radio show, why attempts by the Democratic establishment to present themselves as the standard-bearers of racial justice actually seem more oriented towards white voters, why Biden's success with Black voters is less a function of him having a unique vision for Black America and more a function of his leftover brand recognition from the Obama days, how the media managed to manufacture a wave of 'momentum' behind Joe Biden to push him into frontrunner status, why Trump is virtually guaranteed to make hay out of Biden's support for cuts to social security, how leftist activists keep positive and stay sane in the never-ending horserace of electoral politics, the importance of revolutionary optimism among those for whom surrender to the ruling class is not an option, why Joe Biden's success may signal more about declining collective standards for the presidential nomination than they do about his suitability for the office, whether Joe Biden will be capable of participating in open debates with Donald Trump, why the mainstream media and the Democratic establishment continue to pin the blame for homegrown white supremacy on 'the Russians,' where the latest attempt to smear Black commentators as Russian stooges fits into the mainstream media's century-long tradition of redbaiting so-called Black Identity Extremists, and what to make of Elizabeth Warren's ongoing refusal to endorse her closest political rival, Bernie Sanders.

Defense Secretary Mark Esper has fired Navy Secretary Richard Spencer, putting an end to the conflict between US President Donald Trump and the military's top brass over the fate of Chief Petty Officer Edward Gallagher, who was accused of war crimes in Iraq. What signals are being sent by the president's actions? Gallagher, a Navy SEAL, was acquitted of murder in the stabbing death of an Daesh militant captive but convicted of posing with the corpse while in Iraq in 2017. Gallagher was demoted from chief petty officer to petty officer first class after his conviction by a military jury. Trump, however, restored Gallagher's rank this month. This past Wednesday, the Navy notified Gallagher that he would face a Navy SEAL review board to determine if he should be allowed to remain in the elite force. There appears to be some conflict between the president and others in his administration.Confirming ideologically conservative judges has been a top priority for Senate Republicans. So, while many of us have been focused on the impeachment hearings, the Trump administration has flipped two appeals courts to having majorities of Republican-appointed judges: the 11th and 2nd circuit courts, meaning GOP appointees now outnumber Democrat appointees on most of the nation's circuit courts. Is this a concern, and if so, how big of a concern is it?In a great story for MintPress, Alan MacLeod writes: "Facing increased resistance to its rule, the new 'transition' government of Jeanine Añez in Bolivia has begun to purge and censor potential threats to its authority, including in the media." What does this say about the resistance, and are there similarities between what Añez is doing in Bolivia and what Trump espouses?GUESTS:Robert Fantina — Pro-Palestine activist, peace and human rights leader, journalist and author of "Essays on Palestine."

Who supports military bases in South Korea? Surprising majorities of Democrats, Republicans, and Independents. Also this episode, why some neoliberals are hostile to democracy. Why sphere-of-influence diplomacy is gross and destabilizing. Why the left needs to do better on Hong Kong. The State Department's clash-of-civilizations problem.

It's Friday, so that means it's panel time. Roger Stone, a longtime political operative and associate of US President Donald Trump, was found guilty of federal charges on Friday. "The panel of nine women and three men deliberated for less than two days before finding Stone, 67, guilty on all seven counts," the Washington Post reported. "A judge set Stone's sentencing for Feb. 6 and allowed him to remain free until then. Stone faces a legal maximum penalty of 50 years in prison — 20 years for the witness tampering charge and five years for each of the other counts, although a first offender would face far less time under federal sentencing guidelines."Acting US Ambassador to Ukraine William Taylor and Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian affairs George Kent testified in open impeachment inquiry hearings before the House Intelligence Committee earlier this week. Former US Ambassador to Ukraine Marie Yovanovitch testified Friday. Here are my thoughts about this: the Democrats claim they have a rock-solid, smoking gun case for impeachment. What I have heard so far is a circumstantial presentation that requires what I call inferential supposition. Today, Yovanovitch's testimony sounded like what my colleague Bob Schlehuber called a bad HR exit interview.Bolivian President Evo Morales resigned from office on Sunday, and riots and protests intensified across the country Monday. On Tuesday, Senator Jeanine Añez, a leader of Bolivia's right-wing opposition party, declared herself interim president of the country, despite lacking the constitutionally required number of lawmakers to approve her appointment. In response to that development, Morales, who has accepted asylum in Mexico, tweeted that the coup in the country "has been consummated." What's going on in Bolivia?Islamic Jihad leader Baha Abu al-Ata was killed by an Israeli airstrike this week. "Israeli security forces killed a senior leader of the militant Palestinian group Islamic Jihad in a targeted airstrike in the Gaza Strip early Tuesday, sparking retaliatory rocket fire from the enclave and raising fears of escalating reprisals," the Washington Post reported Tuesday. "Syrian state media, meanwhile, reported that an attack about the same time struck the house of a second Islamic Jihad leader in Damascus. The reports said that the leader, Akram al-Ajouri, was not injured but that his son and one other person were killed and 10 others were wounded. Israel declined to comment on the reports." How dramatic and destabilizing of an action is this?"There are seven weeks until North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is scheduled to deliver a keynote New Year's Day speech. That will come a day after his self-imposed year-end deadline expires for the United States to come up with new proposals to restart nuclear talks," the Washington Post reported Thursday. "On Wednesday — with Washington transfixed on the House impeachment inquiry — North Korea significantly raised the stakes, making an implicit threat to resume long-range missile or nuclear tests. In an official statement, the North said it felt 'betrayed' by a US decision to continue with joint air drills with South Korea, calling it an 'undisguised breach' of an agreement made between Kim and Trump in Singapore last year."GUESTS:Lee Stranahan — Co-host of Fault Lines on Sputnik News Radio.Dr. Linwood Tauheed — Associate professor of economics at the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
