Socialist Party Ousts Bolivian President in Favor of Wannabe Dictator Evo Morales

Bolivia’s ruling Movement Towards Socialism (MAS) party ousted the president of the country, Luis Arce, during a meeting on Wednesday and declared former President Evo Morales its candidate in the 2025 election – officializing a growing rift between the incumbent and the party’s former leader.

Arce became president in part as a result of Morales resigning from the presidency. After serving 13 years, Morales chose to vacate the presidency and flee the country in the aftermath of the 2019 presidential election, which he claimed to have won. Morales was on the ballot despite being term-limited out of serving again because he had successfully pleaded to the nation’s top courts that term limits were a violation of his human rights. His resignation was in response to the Organization of American States (OAS) revealing that its international observers had found significant evidence of “irregularities” in the vote count that led to Morales’s unconstitutional alleged win.

A lot of it is because the socialist parties issue money for voting for them.

Soviets did a lot of work in South America for decades.
