By Carlos Alberto Montaner Tom Klingestein is the author of the most intelligent defense of Donald Trump I have ever seen. I am referring to his conference “Trump 2020: A Man vs a Movement”, that can be found easily on the Internet. TK lives in NY and is the Chairman of the Claremont Institute, a conservative […]
By Carlos Alberto Montaner It seems the right way to me. On October 8, Mike Pompeo announced the name of another sanctioned individual, José López Bello, one of the Venezuelans indicted. Pompeo is the US Secretary of State. Previously, he was the CIA director. The department that Pompeo heads today offers five million dollars as […]
To my friend, the writer Orlando Luis Pardo Lazo By Carlos Alberto Montaner I don’t like Trump, first of all, because I don’t like his character as an arrogant and oppressive person (a bully) who lies or exaggerates. “Trumpologists” estimate that he has said more than twenty thousand lies, deformations of reality or “post-truths.” I […]

I ask Joaquín Pérez-Rodríguez (an expert in electoral matters with more than twenty years of international experience and forty in Venezuela) who will win the contest in the United States on November 3.

The White House grounds were a natural set for projecting Trump’s message. The argument that the law prohibits the use of public […]
By Carlos Alberto Montaner It happened a few days ago. A woman in her 70s toured hospitals in Oruro, Bolivia, in search of oxygen. She had Covid 19. She was dying. She had no strength for anything. She felt confused, as if thinking was taking a great deal of effort. Everywhere she was told the […]
By Carlos Alberto Montaner Joe Biden has done very well in choosing Kamala Harris as his VP. She can take the reins of the US if Biden dies or becomes incapacitated at the White House. After all, if he wins the November elections, he would start his term at 78 years of age. He would […]
By Carlos Alberto Montaner Why are medicines so expensive in the United States? The short answer has to do with research and development costs. What follows is the long one, crowned with a delightful story. The Food & Drug Administration (FDA) is more expensive than the cost of a spoiled child studying abroad. Its usefulness […]
By Carlos Alberto Montaner I don’t have the slightest idea on how the pandemic of a century ago influenced the 1920 elections. More than half a million Americans died while the country had a third of the population that the census shows today. Face masks and “social distancing” were almost the only medicine available. It […]
