Former vice president of Ecuador, Jorge Glas was arrested. It's part of a series of political persecutions by the vendepatrias that have run this country since Lenin Moreno betrayed his party, country and voters. It's late and I don't want to write an in depth piece on Ecuadorian politics. It doesn't even matter because even people who don't like Glas can recognize that this is just an absolutely insane action, a violation of the Vienna Convention and something which has few precedents.

Noboa and Milei competing to see who is the first South American president to completely destroy his own country.

Noboa is so stupid that he did this shit because he wanted an easy win, since his fight against the cartel is going badly. He thought he was going to dominate the Correistas by arresting someone who was once close to Rafael Correa. But Noboa broke international law, and even the US seems to be pissed off about it.

Great plan to isolate your own country from its neighbors and the West when you urgently need help to fight the drug cartels.
