The narco-socialists are fighting back in Bolivia.

The Donald J. Trump administration’s work to secure the Western Hemisphere is an important aspect, and it includes organizing the growing number of right-wing Latin American leaders.

The Trump warning about leaders being in danger was justified.

One of the heads of state involved in this work is Bolivia’s Rodrigo Paz – and he is now under subversive attack, both by gangs devoted to former president Evo Morales who is trying to evade prosecution for allegedly raping an underage girl, and by Colombian narco-militias.

The broad coalition of miners, teachers, transport workers, farmers, indigenous groups, and supporters of former President Evo Morales has mobilized against President Rodrigo Paz, and what began with strikes over wage hikes, fuel subsidy cuts, and proposed reforms quickly escalated into nationwide unrest, with demonstrators blocking major highways and isolating the administrative capital, La Paz.

This led to a reaction from the US government, first through U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau, and now by Secretary of State Maxro Rubio.

Let there be no mistake: the United States stands squarely in support of Bolivia’s legitimate constitutional government.

We will not allow criminals and drug traffickers to overthrow democratically elected leaders in our hemisphere.

Like Jim Hoft reported here on TGP earlier, Erik Prince, the creator of the private military company Blackwater (and one of the world’s most lethal operators) issued a warning about Colombian armed groups infiltrating Bolivia under the command of Gustavo Petro:

Heads up all those who respect rule of law!

Act immediately to prevent the violent takeover of the Government of Bolivia by an international cartel of narco communist terrorists financed and directed by the leader of coca growers in Bolivia, Evo Morales.

“Heads up all those who respect rule of law!

Act immediately to prevent the violent takeover of the Government of Bolivia by an international cartel of narco communist terrorists financed and directed by the leader of coca growers in Bolivia, Evo Morales. 

Morales stole hundreds of millions of dollars while he was President of Bolivia. 

He is a cocaine trafficker currently on trial for sexual assault of a minor.  

Armed narcotics gangs and terrorists from Colombia, Chile, Cuba, and other countries have entered Bolivia, joining Morales’ own Bolivian militia of terrorists, and are taking over government buildings and even an airfield built by the US Drug Enforcement Administration, Morales’ nemesis. 

They are attempting to surround and take the Presidential Palace in the capital city of La Paz, where the constitutional President and his Cabinet are working to protect the country. 

The objective of these terrorists is to overthrow the democratically-elected government of President Rodrigo Paz. 

Paz has been in office mere months and is trying to clean his country of organized crime gangs, many responding to Morales, that have caused harm, violence, and economic hardship in Bolivia.

Please United States to take the lead in repelling the international criminal invasion of Bolivia and to restore order and constitutional rule. Bolivia had a real election. Rodrigo Paz won, don’t let the narcos overthrow him.”

President Trump on Wednesday spoke to reporters at Joint Base Andrews following the Department of Justice’s indictment of former Cuban dictator Raúl Castro, where he celebrated the development and declared, “We have Cuba on our mind.”

Following his commencement speech early at the US Coast Guard Academy in New London, Connecticut, Trump walked up to reporters to discuss the “big news.”

“A lot of people have suffered very big, very, very at levels that few people would understand, and I think the Cuban population of Miami, and certainly beyond Miami, people that came there that were decimated, whose families were ruined, appreciate what the Attorney General just did today,” he began, noting that Cuba’s caused a “a lot of problems for a lot of years.”

Trump told reporters that what’s next for Cuba is help for the families and people of Cuba, though he did not specify how.

He further noted that the CIA and Secretary of State Marco Rubio have been in talks with the Cubans and that though “it’s not going to be like the biggest thing we’ve ever done,” it will be “one of the most important.” Trump added, “We’re freeing up Cuba.”

When asked how much longer he anticipates his oil embargo against Cuba to continue, the President declined to say, instead, telling reporters, “We’ll see. We’ll be announcing it pretty soon.”

“There won’t be escalation,” Trump said. “I don’t think there needs to be. Look, the place is falling apart, it’s a mess, and they sort of lost control. They’ve really lost control of Cuba.”

However, when asked if he plans to arrest Castro by invading the country in a Maduro-style raid, Trump told reporters, “I don’t want to say that.”

WATCH:

The Gateway Pundit reported earlier that Castro was indicted as Trump ramps up his campaign against Cuba’s communist government.

The charges are based on a 1996 attack against US citizens providing humanitarian aid to the people of Cuba. Interim Attorney General Todd Blanche announced the charges on Wednesday during a press conference, where he declared, “the United States and President Trump does not and will not forget its citizens.”

“On February 24th, 1996, two civilian aircraft operated by Brothers The Rescue were shot down over international waters by military aircraft from Cuba. Four men were killed,” Blanche said. “Raul Castro and five co-defendants participated in a conspiracy that ended with Cuban military aircraft firing missiles at those civilian planes and killing four Americans.”

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) is done playing nice.

In a fiery interview, the Tennessee congressman made it crystal clear that patience inside the Republican conference is wearing thin as key elements of President Donald Trump’s America First agenda remain bogged down in Washington gridlock.

Burchett blasted the slow pace of Congress and warned fellow Republicans that if they keep dragging their feet on critical legislation, including election integrity measures such as the SAVE America Act, they’re going to have a very uncomfortable time.

Burchett: If we listen to what President Trump proposes, and in his cuts and things, I think we would be ahead everywhere. But we’re not. We’re running our own little game, and that’s going to cost us. I believe the redistricting has helped us, mainly a Trump initiative.

The price of gasoline, honestly, I think is what people are going to be going to the polls about, either yay or nay, wherever it is. They have a very short memory that it was higher under Biden than it is even now. But with the media constantly bombarding them with all that, you’re not going to get that message.

So people are upset, and they have a right to be. I just wish we would follow President Trump’s initiative from day one and stop with all this nonsense.

You know, it’s like DOGE. I’m chairman of the DOGE Committee, and it’s just like pulling teeth to get any cost-saving measures through these committees.

But I’m just a little different. I don’t work for anybody up here. I work for the good people of Tennessee. And so I don’t care if I tick off every chairman up here. I don’t care. I’m going to embarrass them if they don’t start moving our legislation.

James O’Keefe on Wednesday confronted the woman who was federally charged for illegally paying people to register to vote on Skid Row.

A woman who was caught on O’Keefe Media Group’s undercover camera illegally paying people to register to vote on Skid Row in Los Angeles, California, was federally charged this week.

The Justice Department on Monday announced that Brenda Lee Brown Armstrong was charged with one felony count of paying another person to register to vote. She is facing a max of five years in federal prison.

“False registrations undermine Americans’ faith in elections – even more so when payoffs are involved,” said Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division.

“This Justice Department is committed to ensuring that all U.S. elections are fair and free from illegal meddling – so that all Americans can accept the results with confidence,” she said.

The O’Keefe Media Group in March released its investigation into a California elections fraud cash for ballots scheme.

James O’Keefe and his team of journalists went undercover on Skid Row in Los Angeles, posing as homeless people.

‘Petitioners’ told the undercover journalists that they are paid between $7-$10 per signature. Some of them earn up to $1,000 per day.

“California NGOs Encourage Fake Addresses To Homeless People To Sign Petitions & Register Voters, A State & Federal Felony. Footage Shows 28 Instances Of Cash Changing Hands For Ballot Signatures & Voter Registration Forms,” they said.

Brenda Lee Brown did not want to speak on camera so she let O’Keefe into her apartment to talk off the record.
