2. Not much msm coverage here in US about what's happening in Bolivia post coup . The interim

Nov 2019

President Anez appeared with a big bible to take her place and has some background comments about the indigenous calling their rituals “satanic” and they don’t belong in the city and don’t forget
Camacho is another big time evangelical also
After Morales’s resignation, Camacho entered the government palace in La Paz, & placed a Bible on the Bolivian flag . He said that the Pachamama (the Andean Mother Earth goddess) will “never return to Bolivia.
Bolivia belongs to God.”
They really want to remove the culture so not too far thinking to wonder what they want for the people
This has lead to protests and counter protest and military all in the streets but maybe I’m missing the mainstream US coverage other than a mention

In Canada , Trudeau government is not following the U.S. in backing a rw politician with the history of her past statements but are not taking any side right now either .
