'MAGA's man in Latin America' arrested for murder-for-hire plot
Lurking behind Trump aligned leaders such as Javier Milei, Daniel Noboa, Jair Bolsonaro, and Nayib Bukele are lesser known but highly influential operatives who dictate the course of events in their countries.
Perhaps the most consequential of these figures is Fernando Cerimedo, a top advisor to the right-wing Bolivian President Rodrigo Paz, who’s known as MAGA’s man in Latin America.
On August 18, Cerimedo was arrested and accused of masterminding an attack that would have killed his ex-girlfriend, the Bolivian lawyer Nadia Beller, who is pregnant.
Beller miraculously survived four shots at point-blank range, and from her hospital bed, in a desperate bid to avoid being murdered, she denounced Cerimedo.
The Grayzone reports on how Cerimedo's testimony exposes much more than her ex's lethal intentions.
According to Beller, Cerimedo assisted a vast network of CIA assets as they manipulated Latin American politics on behalf of Trump's Washington, and oversaw a deluge of dark money into the coffers of Trump's hand-picked candidates.
Even with MAGA’s continental point man behind bars, the rampage of resource theft and electoral manipulation, and the killing of national sovereignty, continues full steam ahead.
I dunno the science behind it but there is something empowering to a team when a grown man stands in front of them and admits their mistakes and that they don’t have all the answers.
Mike Macdonald just wants his guys to be themselves in front of the Hard Knocks cameras.

Congress is not serious.
We are voting on a stock trading ban for members of Congress…
BUT Republicans added voter-ID in the legislation.
Not to get Dems to vote for voter-ID,
but to get them to vote against the stock trading ban, so they can use it in the Nov. election.
Any true patriot has a duty not to let those responsible for service members’ deaths use their sacrifice as cover for still more needless deaths.
It makes me genuinely sick that people who were infants or not yet born on 9/11 are now dying in a Middle Eastern war
BREAKING: U.S. Congress is ready to vote in favor of Section 219 this week to merge the United States military with the Israeli military against the will of the American people.
This is Ken Paxton's mugshot.
He was indicted on 3 felony counts for investment fraud.
He was reported to the FBI by his own staff for bribery.
He was impeached by his own party for corruption.
Now he’s the Republican nominee for US Senate in Texas.
Together we will stop him.
Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America.
He embodies the broken system we’re running against.
It’s time to come together: The People vs. Ken Paxton
God bless Thomas Massie.
He walks out of this with his honor intact. He’s a patriot & kept his integrity.
As long as the voters give their votes to whoever can run the most ads we will have politicians who are purchased by foreign governments & corporate interests.
Thomas Massie: "I vote with Republicans 91% of the time. And the 9% I don't, they're taking up for pedophiles, starting another war, or bankrupting our country."

BREAKING: Over 560 Google, $GOOGL, employees have signed an open letter to the CEO urging him refuse to let the US government use its AI technology for classified military operations.
"We want to see AI benefit humanity, not being used in inhumane or extremely harmful ways," read the letter, which was sent today.
This comes just weeks after Anthropic was designated a "supply-chain risk" after the company refused to give the government unrestricted access to its AI models.
Google could become the next AI giant to face US government scrutiny.
