From the first major siege of Monimbó, here's a report from the frontlines, by @carolinehouck and myself. Today things are different: government forces have finally broken through the barricades and seized this resistance stronghold.

@MissionMiamiPC Hi @MissionMiamiPC , I'm writing a story today for the Miami Herald on the public reaction to the election date change -- if someone at the org would get in touch that would be fantastic, email [email protected]
#Nicaragua has always been a country of poets and idealists, a pluralistic society full of discourse and dissent, a nation with a deep history and a multitude of different founding fathers. Now Nicaragua is closing off, even from itself.
The country has become an orphanage.
Nicaragua tonight has w/o warning stripped 94 citizens of their nationality. Among them are historic figures who were imprisoned + tortured under the Somoza dictatorship and Sandinistas who fought to liberate the country--people who shaped the nation they are being thrown out of.
Nicaragua itself is a victim tonight: deprived of a wealth of minds from all walks of life and all political persuasions, passionate people who championed different segments of Nicaraguan society and who contributed greatly to the nation's vibrant culture.
DEA has just been authorized to conduct nationwide covert surveillance on demonstrators, a distressing development amidst the ongoing protests over the death of #GeorgeFloyd, which have already been testing law enforcement's commitment to civil liberties.

#NOW: Hundreds are taking a knee and chanting near the White House for a fifth day of protests over George Floyd’s death, back even after two days of escalating force from police. This might be the most people I’ve seen gather this early in the evening.
Demonstrators are standing firm against the helicopter’s heavy winds. Many are yelling up at it, expressing anger at what they see as a dangerous form of harassing the protesters. Police cars are lined up tightly all down E street behind them.
