100+ #aftershocks reported after two separate 7.7 and 6.6 richter scale #Earthquakes rocked #Panama on #Friday. Reports of toppled buildings near #epicenter and evacuations across the country.
Southern Panama was struck on Friday, October 9, 2026, at 12:56 PM local time, marking the country's most powerful earthquake in over seven decades.
Severe structural collapses occurred closer to the epicenter in provinces like #Herrera, Los Santos, #Veraguas, and Coclé. Damage reports included a collapsed bell tower at a 400-year-old cathedral and crumbling local buildings. This marks the third time in under six months that U.S. forces deployed to assist #LatinAmerican nations following devastating #seismic activity

Traders brought Central American #cacao to #Georgia 1,000 years ago
Potsherds discarded after an 11th-century feast at Etowah—just north of Atlanta—contained traces of cacao, raw ingredient of #chocolate. The chemical residue and ancient DNA reveal that not only did the Mississippian people who built the city have excellent taste, they had trade connections that reached at least 3,000km to #CentralAmerica. And in a sense, chocolate may have helped build the Mississippian mounds.

"#Trump on Monday posted an #image to #socialmedia with a #map of #NorthAmerica in which #Canada, #Greenland & #Mexico, much of #centralAmerica & the #Caribbean, as well as #Iceland, were coloured in with the #US #flag." This is beyond outrageous - the man is completely insane, is clearly suffering from #paranoid #delusions, is not fit to be #President of his #country, & is making the #USA a total laughing-stock!
" Europe pans ‘disturbing’ Trump map that shows all of North America as US territory
Iceland and Greenland as well as French, British, Spanish and Dutch territories were shown under the U.S. flag. "

Naomi #Klein brings together historians to discuss what American activity south of our borders actually means, geopolitically.
Resonances can be found between the 1970s and today. But it is important to highlight the novelties that characterize the current geopolitical situation. If the U.S. once spoke of the “backyard” to promote itself as a democracy over and above its Latin American neighbors, the “frontyard” better describes an emergent order in which the U.S. and its far-right allies pursue shared projects, make collective statements, and drop the lip service to democracy. Unlike the Cold War order in which Latin American countries needed to be “cleaned up” to join the liberal democracies of the North– through a coup d’etat, if need be–it is now a place where #authoritarian exit strategies from liberal #democracy are being tested out.

#CentralAmerica #Drought #ElNiño
It’s no wonder the US public is so ignorant about the rest of the world. The legacy media just can’t be bothered to keep track of far away places like Central America. Oh, wait! That’s right in our back yard…
Anyway, a severe drought is in full swing from Chiapas in southern Mexico to Panama. Food and water shortages are right around the corner.
Here’s one recent article I could find.
