18:01Now PlayingIn this episode, José Luis Granados Ceja joins us before he heads to Honduras to observe a high-stakes election with deep historical roots. We dig into the 2009 coup that ousted President Manuel Zelaya, the rise of Xiomara Castro and the Libre movement, the violent years under Juan Orlando, and why this moment feels like a hinge point for the country.
José Luis explains how the right in Honduras is already laying the groundwork to dispute the results, why the US keeps meddling in Central America in 2025, and what the Bolivian playbook has to do with the warnings we are hearing now. We look at the tension between social movements and the current government, the role of the Florida lobby, and how outside pressure could shape the aftermath of Sunday’s vote.
If you want a clear breakdown of what is happening on the ground, why this election is so close, and what the stakes are for democracy in the region, this conversation lays it all out.
