Larry Johnson on the Monroe Doctrine, 2026 edition:

Trump called Sunday’s election in Brazil “another rigged election” without offering a shred of evidence.

Then somebody coordinated a night border crossing, a foreign charter, a refueling stop in Ecuador and a parole on arrival, all in about two days, without a single public misstep. That is not a political operation. That is tradecraft.
If the CIA was involved, the American people deserve to know, because it means the agency is once again in the business of picking winners and losers in Latin American politics, the business that gave us Guatemala, Chile and the Bay of Pigs. If it wasn’t, then the White House has apparently developed its own private exfiltration service, which is worse.
