TODAY— Soldiers are *tear-gassing* women in prison for speaking out on sexual assault by the Ecuadorian military, which is trained by US forces who are currently building an official base to increase joint operations. Video distributed by human rights attorney Fernando Bastias.

As someone living under a US-backed dictatorship, I can tell you this is how it begins. 2 years and 21 State of Exceptions later, we’re ruled by perpetual martial law with Pentagon bombs, sexual torture, military checkpoints, activists starved, waterboarded or disappeared by soldiers. A little DEA operation turns into the opening of an entire FBI Office in our capital, the military killing protesters at a general strike turned into targeted assassination plots on indigenous labor activists, a few visits from a U.S. Envoy turns into U.S. boots-on-the-ground operations where campesinos are electrocuted. Ecuador has lived all of this already: the hijacking of a once socialist nation literally beat into a Yankee colony. We cannot let it happen to our sister nation of Bolivia too.

Thank you to Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti for inviting me on Breaking Points to discuss the 3 US boat strikes I exposed in April, now alleged to be a Covert CIA Op by WaPo, the assassination of the prosecutor investigating, and how drug trafficking is a tool for Western intervention

My investigation with Drop Site which exposed that U.S. forces had bombed, kidnapped and tortured 36 fishermen was referenced in a congressional hearing by Rep. Keating while questioning U.S. Secretary of War Hegseth. If you haven’t yet read the article, check it out below!

While U.S.-backed (and born) dictator Noboa used our working-class tax dollars to buy luxury seats to the World Cup, this is how his citizens in Ecuador —the most dangerous country in the Western Hemisphere amid Narco wars and Pentagon bombs— watched it. Under bullets and terror.

The U.S. State Department making back door deals with narcos, 7K+ Colombians slaughtered, an IDF-backed cocaine-smuggling paramilitary. What does all this have to do with Abelardo’s presidency? I broke it down on MAKCapitalism following the massacre of 23, including 3 children.

🛑 Footage of the U.S. military bombing Ecuador’s Amazon last night. SouthCom alleges it was a counter-narcotics strike on a FARC guerrilla camp; I’m sure it’s just a coincidence that this province also happens to have one of Ecuador’s largest oil reserves. This province is home to 5 indigenous communities who’ve been organizing and resisting against mining corporations for decades. Just last week, the fascist Noboa dictatorship illegally changed the mining laws to expand resource extraction —despite more than 60% of the nation voting against mining this past November— in what many elected officials are calling an “unconstitutional abue of power”. The FARC guerrilla are a *formerly* Marxist organization born in response to the fascist Colombian state that massacred over 20,000 people between 1948-1958 and as resistance to centuries of unequal land distribution, exploitative working conditions, and the imperialist Cold War. Since then, the FARC is alleged to have been infiltrated and corrupted by drug cartels and other bourgeois agents, no longer acting in the interests of the working class. You know who else has been infiltrated by drug cartels? Ecuador’s Presidential Palace. The shipping company owned by fascist dictator, Daniel Noboa, was found with almost 30 million euros of cocaine in its cargo. Despite the findings of this international investigation, the United States continues to refer to Daniel Noboa as their “Number One partner in combatting drug trafficking in Latin America”. The irony.

My grandfather, former General Secretary of Ecuador’s Communist Party, being interviewed on how Che Guevara helped him escape a military dictatorship and took him to Cuba to study guerilla warfare that he then used to found Ecuador’s first marxist guerilla and workers commune ❤️

Military police are disappearing people from their homes. Operation Cóndor has returned to Ecuador. Our president, who’s actually an American born in Miami, is expelling indigenous Ecuadorians from their land and dissolving our constitution in order to build a US military regime.

Thank you so much to Democracy Now! for having me on and granting me the opportunity to discuss Ecuador’s US-backed military dictatorship and share testimonies from rare survivors of U.S. boat strikes and torture. The harrowing stories of the Donroe Doctrine deserve more coverage.

Thank you Breaking Points Commentary for covering my report on the assassination of the prosecutor investigating US strikes and torture. She was shot dead in Manta, where US troops were deployed with blanket immunity seven months ago under Ecuador’s 22 armed conflict decrees. Nevertheless,

The voice of a nation, Toto La Momposina, the iconic Afro-Colombian singer and child of political prisoners who was black listed by Colombia’s fascist government for the pride of Black resistance in her music, has passed. She was the soundtrack to my childhood, she’s who I put on and dance for hours to when I’ve had a bad day, she is all of Latin America to me, her Bullerengues are a spiritual realm, and she herself is eternal. Rest in power, Reina de la Cumbia 🕊️

🔴 Associate of murdered presidential candidate Fernando Villavicencio alleges Ecuador’s then–Minister of Interior had prior knowledge of the assassination plot. Speaking to Señal Colombia, Gisella Molina—who was also hurt during the attack— maps out the highly questionable ways Lasso’s minister conducted himself prior to, during, and after the shooting (for which he was present, but conveniently avoided by exiting through a different door than the one where Villavicencio was shot). Villavicencio was investigating Lasso’s administration for connections to drug cartels at the time of his murder. The murder of Villavicencio paved the way for Noboa to win the presidential election. Since becoming president, he has shielded and protected Lasso (who has long had close ties to Noboa’s private companies). In recent weeks, the two major drug cartel leaders involved in the assassination have gone on record saying Noboa ordered the hit on Villavicencio and promised them immunity in exchange. They claim they’re speaking out now because Noboa didn’t hold up his end of the bargain. Villavicencio’s main campaign promise was to combat cocaine trafficking. Noboa’s private companies have been caught shipping at least €26 million worth of cocaine. It is indisputable that there are two living presidents, one former and one current, who benefited greatly from the death of Villavicencio. Let’s do the math, folks!
