But What If This Democracy Isn't a Democracy? (With Carlos Santibáñez and Juan Escalante)

But You Can't Stay Here by Ines Bellina
Episode notes
When Ines Bellina moved out of the United States, she kept hearing the same joke. “You sure got out just in time!” But Ines wasn't heading to a stable, peaceful democracy. She was headed to her home country of Peru, which has seen non-stop political turbulence—and which was about to elect a new president in 2026. With the help of two experts, Ines explains how politics make Peru a difficult place to live, how the current U.S. government has changed the way she moves through the States, and how there is no real escape from the White House, anywhere in the world.
