11 THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT TODAY'S REFERENDUM IN #Ecuador:

President @DanielNoboaOk, the son of Ecuador’s richest oligarch, now known as a defiler of embassies and the supporter of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, is holding a referendum on Sunday, April 21st, in order to amend Ecuador’s constitution and transfer more power to the presidency and the country’s security forces that have so far failed to deal with Ecuador’s spiralling murder rate and drug gang violence. The referendum contains 11 question on topics ranging from extradition to militarization of the police to the complete flexibilization of working hours.

#11VecesNo 1. The invasion of Mexican embassy:
The first time in almost 50 years that a diplomatic mission in Latin America was invaded by a police and military force with the objective of extraditing Jorge Glas, who was granted political asylum by the Mexican government The only other recorded instance of this happening in the continent was the 1976 invasion of the Venezuelan embassy in Montevideo and the kidnapping of anti-fascist activist Elena Quinteros by the Uruguayan dictatorship. With this act came the widespread condemnation from across the world, as well as the possibility of Ecuador’s expulsion from the UN, and Noboa placed his name firmly alongside the brutal “Plan Condor” regimes of the 1970s and the 1980s.

#Mexico: THREAD
AMLO and his Fourth Transformation movement (or 4T) scored major victories on June 6th throughout Mexico, obtaining a majority in the Congress and winning more than 2/3 of the governors races. At the same time, it faced defeats in the local elections in CDMX. According to the latest vote count and the rapid count, the left-wing coalition consisting of Morena, PT and the Greens, have won an absolute majority in Congress. The coalition and the individual parties overall scored around 42.5% and will likely obtain around 280-290 seats.

The common goal of supporting the installation of authoritarian right-wing governments in the region. Open thread The Bolivian far-right has wasted no time in building a new opposition movement to the government of @LuchoXBolivia. The most prominent organisation in the mix is US-funded "NGO" @RiosDePie and their main regime change agent, @JhanisseVDaza, pictured here with @JeanineAnez.
