"It has never been easy for a small country to disagree with the U.S. government, and even less so, when its president behaves like a Roman emperor, telling the rest of the world what to do," he said on social media in February."

"His statements came after the U.S. withdrew visas from three Costa Rican lawmakers who opposed Chaves' decision to exclude Chinese firms from participating in the development of 5G in the country, following U.S. demands. On Tuesday, another opposition lawmaker was also stripped of her U.S. visa."

Did you not read the news today?, oh boy. Dems are running about 15 points over trend. This predicts a bloodbath midterm shifting 50 or more House seats away from the Republicans. Senators, Congressmen please heed the call Don't stand in the doorway, don't block up the hall.

👆🏾👇🏾”El expresidente de Costa Rica y ganador del Premio Nobel, Óscar Arias, dijo que EE. UU. le revocó la visa para ingresar al país, semanas después de que criticara en redes sociales al presidente estadounidense Donald Trump, diciendo que se estaba comportando como “un emperador romano”.

My government is working hard for the U.S. to become a sad, pathetic and ignorant backwater asap, certainly in part due to a mentally defective functional illiterate in the WH., a narcissistic court jester like EM, a supine Repub. congress, a useless extreme wealthy class and yes, a citizenry...

So people get denied (or worse) access to the US because they speak openly and honestly (and critically) about Trump, Musk, and MAGA? Remind me again who the “snowflakes” are.

Weird. You’d think after helping the U.S. support the Contras by providing the Contras cover in Costa Rica to train to carry out covert ops in Nicaragua, this administration would respect the corruption. But who remembers Iran Contra anyway…

Doll, you don’t want to come within a hundred miles of the US right now. We’re pretty much a toxic stew of bitterness and stupidity with a dash of measles and bird flu thrown in. We’ll splash some bleach around, shine a UV light on it, take some cod liver oil, and get back to you in four years.

Unbelievable that not one RepubliCON will stand up to that fucken moronic dictator and tell him ENOUGH!! Im old enough to remember when their klan had the courage to go to Nixon and say: “ENOUGH” what will it take for a few of them to grow a pair?

Every ex-premier and politician should do the same and see what happens. When no one comes to kiss the ring... he will change his tune.

It has to do with punishing politicians who were opposed to pushing China out of Costa Rica's 5G development. Musk is expanding Starlink into Central & S. America (it is already in Costa Rica). I wonder if it has something to do w Musk's business expansion plans.

Yes the article states he criticized the current govt for giving in to Trump. Trump is revoking visas for politicians in Costa Rica who vote differently than he wants them to. And then for the ex-President who criticized Trump's bullying.

Who is keeping track of all of this? Is there some master database of past insults that gets crashed up against incoming flight manifests? What a waste of everyone’s time!
