As car-centric nations race for lithium access & local govs scramble to take advantage, the Indigenous villages of nor. Argentina have become the front lines of complications & conflicts related to the mineral's extraction. My story for @theprogressive progressive.org/magazine/after…

New Argentine president Javier Milei’s rhetoric may be distinct, but his economic dogma, originally conceived in and spread by the U.S., has a long history of diverting resources from the many to the few. Final chapter of Dark Legacy: youtube.com/watch?v=Ram548…

Before I leave 2023 behind, let me remember…

The Argentine puna, home to many indigenous villages and towns who have long lived in harmony with nature. Now, the region’s fragile ecosystem — and those who rely on it — are being upended by the influx of lithium production. My story for @theprogressive coming soon.

How did the U.S. dollar 💵 take control in Argentina, directing its current economic crisis and inspiring this month’s election of new president Javier Milei? This is Chapter 5 of Dark Legacy. Full chapter: youtu.be/qST62gvr-BY?si…

@LaInca_ Estoy de acuerdo. Soy estadounidense y trabajo en un proyecto documental sobre cómo 7 décadas de interferencia de EEUU contribuyeron a la crisis actual. Si querés verlo, este es el capítulo 1 (ya hay 4/6 publicados, pronto estará traducido el 4 también) instagram.com/reel/CxyjEEyAv…

Yanquis hablando de nuestra economía sin mencionar ni su banque a la dictadura que rompió varias cosas, ni su banque a Menem que aplicó un programa hecho en buena medida por ellos, ni su rol en el acuerdo con Macri. Todo bien pero cierren el orto

Why does the U.S. care so much about Argentina? I’ll tell ya over banana crepes.

@kessler_mark Neverrr

Protest is engrained in Argentine culture, winning many workers’ rights over the yrs. Historically, the only mode for halting it has been terror — a strategy once encouraged by the US as it sought partners for its economic goals. Dark Legacy, Ch. 4: youtube.com/watch?v=kS-3Zy…

@CommonSenseSam @PopBase Looks very similar to the Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot

@PopBase @AmeliaRayno

Couple in Colorado share footage they captured on the train of what they believe to be Bigfoot.

At the center of Javier Milei’s campaign is an austerity-heavy economic platform he has dubbed the “chainsaw” plan. @AmeliaRayno #Argentina #Bolsonaro #Inflation progressive.org/latest/argenti…

Sunday marks Argentina's general election, a moment the nation has been careening towards with great drama. My piece about front-running Javier Milei, a candidate who often draws comparisons to Donald Trump, for @theprogressive: progressive.org/latest/argenti…

CHAPTER 3 of my series Dark Legacy: understanding U.S. responsibility in Argentina's economic crisis — A worsening economy dominates voters' minds ahead of October's presidential elections. Echoes of 70s-era shock policy reverberate. youtube.com/watch?v=S7y5tk…

After Iris Avellaneda was kidnapped, her 15-yr old son killed by Argentina’s last dictatorship, she spent the rest of her life with 1 goal: send the guilty to prison & keep them there. Her fight has lasted 45 years & counting. My story for @theprogressive progressive.org/magazine/argen…

@BigHiggaHigga Thanks again friend!!

As Argentina’s current economic crisis deepens, many are feeling the pain in fundamental ways. How did one of the world's richest nation get here? We begin Chapter 2 with Argentina's golden era and the start of U.S. meddling. youtube.com/watch?v=b7z5BW…)
