Are US Sanctions and Foreign Assistance Laws Being Politically Weaponized in Guatemala?

The Global Liberty Alliance Podcast with Jason Poblete

Last week in an exclusive interview with Guatemala Attorney General María Consuelo Porras, Jason Poblete and the Attorney General discussed why she thought the United States had imposed sanctions earlier this on her and other Guatemalans. You can listen to that podcast by following this link. The first podcast was recorded in Spanish with Attorney General Porras, so we decided to record another podcast with colleagues in Guatemala who are on the frontlines of freedom battles. On this podcast, we dig deeper and speak with two leading conservative thought leaders in Guatemala, Dr. José Luis González Dubón, a constitutional lawyer and practitioner, and former Vice Presidential candidate and business, Ms. Betty Marroquin. Editor at Large Steve Hecht is a businessman, writer, and film producer, born and raised in New York.
