Hi there,

As the future of democracy in the United States hangs in the balance, the need for courageous independent media is more important than ever. Our reporting centers the voices of people routinely excluded from corporate and government-run media, such as those raising deep questions about war and peace, demanding an end to our global reliance on fossil fuels. Because we are audience-supported, we need your help today. Can you donate $15 to Democracy Now! today to support independent media? From now until Giving Tuesday, a group of generous donors will TRIPLE your gift, which means your $15 donation is worth $45. Please help us air in-depth, substantive coverage of the outcome of the election and what it means for our collective future. Thank you so much! Every dollar makes a difference.

Evo Morales Blames Bolivian President Luis Arce for Apparent Assassination Attempt

HeadlineOct 28, 2024

Former Bolivian President Evo Morales blamed sitting President Luis Arce after his vehicle came under fire in what Morales said was an attempted assassination Sunday. This comes amid mounting tensions between Arce and Morales; both men belong to the ruling MAS party and have announced plans to represent the party in Bolivia’s 2025 presidential election. Arce has accused Morales of “destabilizing” the country by calling for road blockades and protests. Morales has said he is being persecuted by Arce’s government, including what he claims are false accusations of statutory rape.
