While corporate media focuses on the 24-hour wartime news cycle, a lot falls through the cracks, entire continents actually. 

First up this week, we welcome back to the program journalist José Luis Granados Ceja to talk about the Greater America plan, and Operation Total Extermination, the latest US policy initiatives for Latin America. José Luis highlights media complicity in framing US relations with the Global South, how Mexico and its allies in the region are responding to these military threats and how the war in Iran is affecting this political landscape. 

Next up, journalist and organizer Edith Romero talks about corporate colonialism in Honduras, and how the likes of Peter Thiel are piggy-backing on decades of imperialist extraction to create their own sovereign nations not subject to any Honduran oversight or accountability, and how this connects to the oppressive surveillance and anti-human eugenicist manifestations of AI here in the US and globally.
